(By Associated Press. }

Wellington, n. T., July &c.
The first conscription measure in the
British Overseas Dominions was vir-
tually placed on the statute book on
June 10, when the military service
bill passed its third reading in the
House of Representatives with only
four votes in opposition. Though the
bill has to pass the upper house, it is
cnsidered as good as passed.
During the debates the govern
ment described the bill as one pro-
viding for compulsory service when
voluntary enlistment failed, that is.
the voluntary system will continue
but it will be backed up by a scheme
of compulsory service, thereby in
surfing the number Of reinforce
ments the country is required to
send away every four weeks.
The minister for defense, Col. j.
Allen, pointed out that under the
new bill no class of men was exempt
because that had proved to be mis-.
take in England.

rnE FALSE Prophets CONFESS.
Marvellous German Victories in Ru-
mania upset the Theories of the
Experts.

Rumania's collapse furnishes
material for numerous articles in
noted American weekly newspapers.
They seem bewildered at the turn
things have taken and, at last, some
doubts seem to enter the editorial
minds whether any reliance may be
placed on what London says. At any
rate, most of these editors ascribo
their untulfilled predictions respect
ing Rumania's s role in the war to no
other agency than the constant as-
surances printed in the English press
that all was well and that Rumania
would play q heroic part in the war.
The Independent now voices the fol-
lowing complaint;
"One Of the leading British author
tiles declared that Germany is not
capable OF carrying out a complex
military operation on the Rumanian
side rne London Spectator Of Nov
ember 9, when the Germans were al
ready through the Carpathians, said:
UNLESS we are greatly mistaken,
the push at any price has already
ended in the Dobrudja in tactical
aasco, and is going so to end in the
Carpathians. If we are right, we
wonder whether our pessimists still
have the effrontcry to say that it
would be better for us If Rumania
had never come into the war. In
our opinion, IL will turn out in the
end that Rumania has caused the
German military authorities to do
! something very like ham-stringing
their Forces
"A week later General Brusiloff,
IN command OF the Russian forces in
Rumania, stated in an interview for
| The Times
The recent temporary reverses OF
Rumania must not be considered as
| having the slightest significance. and
the enemy's trihing advance in the
Dobrudia. though regrettable in
