LEADING TOPIC.
AT THE CAPITAL.
Agitation in Favor Of Uni

Over the Country and
President Hears from the
People.

Washington, March 26.-The navy
having put in order. insofar as presi-
Dental authority now goes, the chief
attention as regards the defense of
the nation is today centered In the land
protection problem.
What form, or system, land defense
shall take, still is being debated.
BY the time congress convenes in
extraordinary session one week from
today, 1t is expected this question will
have been resolved into positive shape.
FOR UNIVERSAL SERVICE.
President Wilson has begun to hear
from every section of the country on
the army question. The various notes
being sounded were specifically re-
quested when the war college univer-
sal service bill went before the coun-
try.
The people back home" arc ex-
pressing themselves to the president
and their Representations in congress
sal training, a call for volunteers, or
some other means to raise an army.
HEARS FROM BOTH SIDES.
Several state legislatures have pass
ed resolutions favoring universal mill
tary training. Hundreds Of kilograms
and letters from college students and
young mon in all parts of the country
urge adoption Of such system. Out
of hundreds of newspapers questioned
by the National Association for Mini
tary Training, SO per cent favored a
law compelling universal military
training. But there are also many
voices raised in opposition and thus
far President Wilson has not declared
himself. He has admitted the need of
some form of physical training" but
has inclined to the belief that the
country is not yet ready for the uni
versal military idea
Chairman Chamberlain Of the senate
military affairs committee says he be-
lieves recent international develop
ments lave made the country ready
for such a plan as never before. He
says he is hearing from the people
back in Oregon" who originally were
opposed to military training but who
now loudly insist on it.
Other senators and Representatives |
have made similar reports.
TO BE REiNTRoDUCED.
AS result, universal military train |
ing bills will be re-introduced both in |
the house and senate Immediately after |
congress convenes and it is generally |
believed President Wilson will dis
cuss the subject in his message.
In case universal training fails of
support the president may be author
lied by congress to take any one, or all
of the following courses:
Recruit the regular army up to its
hull authorized strength-250,00 900 Of
'icers and men.
Call out and recruit UP to full author
zed strength the militia-400,0 900 Of
'icers and men.
Call for volunteers numbering
anywhere between 250.00o and SOC, 1000.
Plans for each of these courses, in
,luding call for a half million vol
inteers, have been completed by the
var department and submitted to
President Wilson.
