minor proposals:
Three Government Proposals.
First. Prolongation until the end
of the war of the service of time-ex-
pired men whose period of service un-
der the present law can be extended for
one year only.
Second. To empower the military
authorities to transfer men enlisted for
territorial battalionS to any unit where
they are needed.
Third. To render the exempted man
liable to military service Immediately
on the expiration of his certificate of
exemption.
With a view to ultimate addition to
FORCES available, they will further pro-
pose to bring under the terms of the
military service act all youths under
eighteen August Is last, they reach

FISHERMAN NETS $1,000,
Others Obtain as High as $500 Day
as Result of Hauls.

In the vicinity of Coan and wicomico
rivers, tributaries Of the Potomac in
Virginia. near Chesapeake bay, the
fishermen have not had as prosperous
a spring fishing season as the present
in many years. and residents of Heaths-
vile and Reedsville, Va, state that the
fishermen are making big money The
run of shad has been good since early
in the season. and big catches have
been made. One fisherman, who has
been particularly fortunate, is reported
to have netted as high as $1,000 on
single days fishing. and other fisher
men are said to have made over $500 a
day. At this time it is nothing unusual
for anywhere from 5000 to 5000 shad
to be taken from single pound net.
These fish are shipped to Philadelphia
and New York, where they bring good
prices.
Old fishermen in northumberland and
Westmoreiand who have been engaged
in shad and herring catching for many
years all say that the present season
is the most prosperous one the Virginia
and Maryland fishermen have had in
a long time.

Mr.. Mann as Parliamentarian.

Representative Mann has never dis
played a wider knowledge of parlia-
mentary law nor shown himself more
adroit than in the use of tactics dis
played yesterday in endeavoring to
block conference, and it was only by
recognizing the socialist member Rep
resentativc London of New York
that the democrats were able to dodge
a vote on the question of a larger army
A special rule adopted to give the ap-
pointment of conferees right of way
started the struggle. This rule per-
mitted one motion to recommit the bill.
When the time came to make this
motion. Representative Kahn. Repre-
sentative Britten and other republic cans
were ready to offer a motion to recon-
NIT to the committee with instructions
to bring the bill out again with
larger standing army, or something
similar. which would have forced a

ASQUITH OUTLINES PROGRAM
FOR FILLING RANKS OF ARMY
Calls for 5000 Men Each Week, With
General Compulsion the Alternative
Proposed

LONDON. April 26-Premier Asquith
at the secret session of parliament yes
terday presented on behalf of the gov
ernment proposals foreshadowing gem
eral military compulsion unless success
attended Immediate efforts to obtain
men required by voluntary enlistment
from amongst unattested married men,

The government. Mt AsQuith said,
will forthwith ask parliament for
compulsory power" unless, at the end
of four weeks ending May - $4,000
men have been secured by voluntary
enlistment. The same course is pro-
posed if in any one week after May -
$4,000 men have not been secured by

are to hold good until 100000 unattest-
ed men have been obtained.

recruiting to date has fallen short of
requirements which were necessary to
fulfill our proper military efforts.
Official Statement Issued.
The statement in full follows:
The premier in moving the adjourn |
ment of the house gave the particulars !
of the expansion of the army from the
first days of the war up to the present |
time and of the total military effort of |
the empire, including contributions
from the self-governing dominions and
India. He reviewed inquiries conducted
by government order to examine all
considerations relevant to the recruit
ing problem, including demands made
upon our supply of labor in providing
for the needs of the navy, mercantile
marine ports. munitions and other es-
sential national services.
THE bearing of finance on the Gues-
ton of recruiting and in particular of
financial assistance rendered to the al
lies was then explained. From these
inquiries were deduced the number of
men that could safely be spared from
il ustry for military purposes during
t.. present year and the anticipated
effect of calling up these numbers at {
the rate proposed was eXpla ined.
Results of recruiting, more particu
larly since August last, when regstra-
tion was carried sout. were reviewed. 1t
was shown that the results obtained to {
date had fallen short of requirements
which were necessary to fulfill our /
proper military effort. This was due not
to an overestimate. of the uumber of i
men available. but to the length of G
time which must be occupied in sitting
