A MILLION men
FOR THE ARMY
Bill Passes the Senate Provid-
ing for Reserves.
TO UTILIZE sCHOoLBOYs
important Amendments TO the Army
Bill Are Adopted BY the Senate.
Proposal To Have SchooIboy
Volunteers Is Passed.

Washington.-An army reorganiza-
tion bill that would produce regular
army and reserve military forces in
the United States aggregating a mil
lion men was passed by the Senate
without a record vote. 1t is a substi-
tute for the Hay bill passed by the
House, and the differences will be
worked out in conference.
On the eve of joint session of the
houses of Congress to hear message
from the President on grave interna-
tional issues, the Senate fastened COM
pletion of the bill amid scenes of ex-
citement, repeatedly rejecting all
amendments pending to reduce the
proposed Strengthening Of the army.
The apparently grave developments
of the few hours preceding the passage
Of the bill probably served to save the
volunteer army provision. Champions
of the National Guard fought it bitter
ly in the committee of the whole, and
it was retained by a vote of "a to 80.
Senator Lewis again moved to strike
out the section. 1t was saved this
time by vote of 40 to 81.
Other Provisions,
Other important provisions of the
Senate bill, not in the House measure.
include the following:
Appropriation of $4,000, 900 for con-
struction of government plants for
production of nitrates to be used in
manufacture of ammunition.
Provision for vocational education
of enlisted men of the regular army,
compelling instruction either in agri-
culture or the mechanical National
Guard section in the general staff of
the Army, and requiring all officers
and enlisted men of the National
Guard to subscribe to an oath to sup
port the United States, as well as the
respective States.
Provision for Federal pay OF all Ma
tional Guard officers above the rank of
captain.
Because Of the radical differences,
it is expected that the House will at
once ask for conference and that
work of perfecting the final form Of
new army measure will begin with
in few days.

Redistribution Of
AMERICAN TROOPS
Carranza Must Show That He
Can Handle Situation.
PREPARING FOR EMERGENCY
Funston Plans Observation-Disclosures
To BE So Placed As To
Protect Border
Towns.

Washington.-Behi the announce
ment that President Wilson had ap-
proved plan for redisposition of the
American troops in Mexico, there was
q plain intimation that the Washing
ton Government had determined to
maintain a military status quo beyond
the border until the Mexican de facto
government has demonstrated its
ability to capture or crush Villa and
his adherepts and prevent repetitions
of the Columbus raid,
In the interim, it is understood, the
American troops will be so placed as
to safeguard the border towns by vir-
tually policing the area south Of the
line where General Carranza hereto
fore has been unable to check bandit
operations.
Recommended BY Funston.
Secretary Baker announced the ap-
proval of the redisposition plan after
consulting with the President over a
joint report submitted by Maior-Gen-
eral Funston and Major-G General Scott,
Chief of Staff, in conference on the bor-
der. The plan was proposed by Cen
eral Funston and coneurred in by Gen.
eral Scott. The Secretary announced
the Administration decision, as fol-
lows:
General Funston has recommended
a redisposition of the forces in Mexico
for the purpose of recuperation and
pending opportunities for further CO.
operation with the forces of the de
facto Government of Mexico. The
recommendation has been approved
and its execution left to his discre-
ton"
Later the Secretary dictated the fol-
lowing:
"The statement, have made indi-
Gates nothing whatever on the subject
Of when the American troops will be
withdrawn from Mexico The whole
subject of withdrawal Of the forces is
under arrangement and negotiation by
the State Department"

Relations.

President Wilson has delivered an
ultimatum to Germany. Unless the
German government Immediately and
completely abandons the present
method Of submarine warfare against
passenger and freight ships. diplomatic
relations will be severed and Count
Won Bernstorff, the German anbassa-
dor, will be handed his passports. The
American note presenting this demand
to the German government has been
sent to Berlin. President Wilson's
patience is exhausted, and he will wait
only the least possible period for the
German answer. The note that went
forward Wednesday was the twentieth
note sent by this government to
the German government, protesting
against the long list Of submarine at
tacks. It is the last.
