 It is impossible to make estimates on the numbers of men, for if the Angel Gabriel made an estimate some one would be found in the house of commons to rise and challenge the estimate. But one essential thing is sure-it has been a complete answer to Germany and has shown that we will have enough men to carry for ward the war to a successful conclu- sion.s

PRESIDENT TO FIGHT FOR
 STRONGER ARMY AND NAVY
Is to Make Public Addresses in Sup
 port of the Project.

Washington, Jan. 1S.-President Will son is planning to assume personal leadership in the fight for stronger army and navy. So many reports have reached him of confusion over the issue before congress and of the uncertainty of the outcome that he has determined not only to go before the country in public addresses, but 0D confer further on the subject with leaders of the senate and house.
 tative Padgett. chairmen of the house military and naval committees, re- spectiyely, have informed Mr. Wilson that 1t will be from six weeks to two months before the committees will be ready to report the army and navy appropriation bills. While this work is going on he proposes to do his ut most to solidify sentiment among the people and members of congress in favor of the plans drawn up by the war and navy departments.
 Friends of the president represent him as being undeterred by the open opposition of former Secretary Bryan and other pacificists and by differences among advocates of national defense over the exact plans to be adopted. He is said tos be firmly of the opinion that the programme, prepared by Sec retaries Garrison and Daniels is the best that can be offered at this time.
 Plans for the speaking trips will be prepared as quickly as possible. If necessary the president may change the White House social programme mapped out before Christmas.

 UNITED MINE WORKERS
Demand for Improvements in Wage
 Scale Suggested.

Indianapolis Ind, Jan. 1S-Two in cidents that stood out in the opening tion of the United Mine Workers of America here today were the hearty Approval given by the 1900 delegates when President John F. White said that the miners should share in the present prosperity and the waves of applause that followed the declarations Of the miners leader and Secretary Treasurer William Green that in their belief the workingmen of the country were opposed to the present prepared ness agitation.
 Mr. White in his biennial report urged the scale committee of the com vention to carefully canvass the sit uation in formulating demands. He called attention to improved industrial conditions, stated the country was entering upon an unprecedented area of prosperity and that the convention should demand such improvements in the wage scale as conditions will warrant.
 President White touched on prepar- edness before he took up the wage discussion and consideration of war and his declaration of opposition to preparedness on large scale brought the first real applause in the conven- ton. He said he was fully con- vinced that the men of labor are un- alterably opposed to the whole scheme of preparedness" and added that it is to be earnestly hoped that the plans to make our country an armed camp which may be used to extend commercialism abroad and exploit la bor at home will be defeated"
 Secretary Green was equally em- phatic in his declaration against pre- paredness and said that the conven- tion fought to give expression to it's attitude toward this so-called prepar- edness programmed
 he convention devoted the opening sessions to organization and reading of reports of officers. According to the latest available figures, MT. Whites report said, there are 763.185 persons employed in the coal mining industry in the United States. The membership of the miners union is 361, OPT.
