DENOUNCES GUARD
FOR ARMY LOBBY
Chamberlain Asserts 1t Is
Menacing Safety of L. S.
War in Sight
SfeciaI to The TeItEraeh

Washington, April 6. With the
country upon the brink of serious
trouble. the nationSl guard organiza-
tions of the country are trying to tie
its hands and prevent it from helping
itself if it falls over.
This was the charge made by Sena-
tor Chamberlain, chairman of the
committee on military affairs. in the
senate.
The Senator from Oregon asserted
that the national guard. by demanding
the elimination from the army bill
of the section creating a volunteer
army, is attempting to dictate to Con-
gress what military policy shall be
formulated to safeguard the nation
against the possible developments of
present international complications
Unless the militia organizations stop
their active lobbying, he declared 1t
to be his intention TO move to eliminate
them from the proposed system of
land defenses.
He declared that general military
service is the only certain solution of
the nations military problem, and he
predicted that the activities of the
national guard in attempting to con-
troll military legislation will force the
adoption of general service sooner
than would otherwise be probable.
Says Country Is Close to War
Senator Chamberlain startled the
Senate with the declaration that the
country is close to war.
He said that one of the nations now
engaged in the European war was es-
tablishing colonies upon the eastern
coast of South America before the
war began. He evidently referred to
GERMANY and SpbanaS IN,
Colombia.
Another nation, he said, has settled
colonies upon the west coast of South
America.
rs the Monroe doctrine scrap OF
paper, or do we intend 10 set II up and
maintain it?" he asked.
In order to assert it we must be
prepared TO maintain it, and to do
that we must have an adequate army
