S. A DAY IN ARMY,
is PLAN OF PACIFIST
Amendment May Be Offered to
This Effect in Fight on Pre-
paTedness.

The preparedness bills will be discuss
ed in Congress from many angles. one
of the most striking promises to relate
to the question OF the pay of the sol
der.
Pacifcists and other opponents OF the
national defense legislation are consid-
ering a demand that the soldier be paid
good wages per diem. instead or ~
cents. One exponent of the idea Inat
the country does not need a larger
army today suggested that II men were
to be asked to enter the army to risk
their lives they ought to he paid as
much as Henry Ford is supposed TO
pay. s. per day. He suggested that
wnen the military bill was considered
an amendment be offered for a MINI
mum wage OF IS per day. 1t was not
fair he added, ito ask a man to expose
his life to bullets and disease for less
than that.
Wouldn't Expect Victory.
or course, such an amendment would
be offered, not in the belief that IT
would be adopted. but in the belief that
its consideration would tend TO block
legislation for greater preparedness.
In addition to the plan for a liberal
minimum wage for the soldier, the pre-
posal for Government manufacture or
all munitions ana war material will be
pressed by the opponents of prepars-
ton. They will support II in the De-
lief that 1t will be instrumental in pre-
venting an increase of army or navy.
A great many members OF House and
Senate favor Government manufacture
who are also for preparedness. But at
the same time, It is true that those
who are opposed to preparation are
urging this idea on the theory that the
chief hackers of more preparation are
interests concerned in manufacture of
war materials, and that II II becomes
clear there is to be- Government manu-
facture these hackers will suddenly lose

Matter Open To Dispute.
Whether It is true that the movement

s.. London, March 21.-Reuter's AM
sterdam correspondent sends the 1'l-
lowing comment from the Socialist
newspaper, Het Volk, concerning the
sinking of the Dutch vessels:
'It would be folly to deny that eN-
citement among the people is increas-
ing since the treacherous attack on
The Palernbang. 1t is serious sign
that the leading newspapers no long
CT suppress statements lis to the pos
sibility Of war.
'Few here attach credcntc to the
German official assurance that inc
steamer Tubantia was not torpedoca
by German submarine. Gr:at BRIT
ain never thus far has torpedoea Il
neutral vessel, White Germany mas
done SO countless times
The correspondents adds that the
Het Volk, however, deduces from the
German communication denying that
q German submarine was responsible
for the sinking of the Tubant'a'
that Germany is not seeking var with
Holland.

of another indigant protest concern
