VESSELS ARE SUSPECTED
OF HARBOR|NG GERMANS

AN ATLANTIC PORT. July 1o.-Two
Swedish steamers, here for bunker
coal. are closely guarded by Depart
ment of Justice offioals investigating
a report that the steamers have on
board Germans who are attempting to
make their way from South America
back to Germany.
Reports Of the station in life and the
mission of the Germans alleged to be
aboard the steamers vary. One has 1t
that they have been to South America
In an attmpt to foment trouble there;
another that they are international
spies. and still another that they were
stranded in South America at the out
break Of war and are trying to make
their way back to Germany.
Department of Justice officials were
called in the case and are closely
guarding the ships to see that no one
leaves them.
The steamers are not being held up
here and are at liberty to leave at any
time. They are among the finest
freight steamers ever seen in this port.
Both have passenger accommodations.

favorable to overtime work. About
nine Of those testifytng expressed q
desire for overtime, while the others
raised objection. The committee re-
manned in session until nearly 7o'cloek.
returning then to the Treasury De-
partment, where the report was finally
made public with the order of the Sec
rotary.
Those who favored overtime among
the women testifying were Of two
and the other which. finding the men
doing their bit to meet q war neces-
sity.. wished to do their share as
patriotic duty. even at cost OF nerv-
Gus energy and fatigue. The critics OF
the overtime system had various rea-
sons. mostly complaining Of the ex-
haustion and impaired health that they
ascribed to the long hours Of work.
The hearing developed complaints as
to the refusal of permission of time
off to take civil service examinations
for positions in other Offices of the
government: the docking of employees.
even when they had time coming to
them, for absence due to Illness; the
revocation of leaves of absence. and
the denial Of Saturday half-holidays.
These matters were not disposed OF In
the report Of the committee.
Not Confined to Bureau.
The refusal of time off for private
business Is not peculiar to the bureau.
Other administrative offices have found
it necessary to curtail such privileges.
In the bureau. however, the order was
made sweeping. and without exception.
In fact. the committee bears witness
that none Of the complaints entered
against the bureau administration
charged favoritism of any form against
Director Ralph.
These matters that the committee did
not dispose of will be the subject of
further consideration. 1t is possible
that hearings may be held. or a de-
cision reached without such aid. on
how best to adjust conditions to the
need of the public service.

Another Task Up to President.

And here is one by Senator Cummfns,
empowering the President whenever
in his judgment 1t shall be necessary
for the efficient prosecution of the war,
to require any or all producers OF coal
or coke. either in any special area or in
any special coal fields. or in the entire
United States. to sell their product
only to the United States through an
agency to be designated by the Presi-
dent. such agency to regulate the re-
sale of such coal and coke and the
prices thereof and to fix the compensa-
ton to be paid such producers by the
United States and to regulate the meth

such coal and coke among merchants,
domestic consumers, industrial consum-

that If during the continuance Of the
war the President finds that the prices
of necessaries compared with wages
and other fixed incomes Is resulting or
will result in an impairment OF the
health. strength and efficiency OF the
people generally 'by reason Of their in

Senator Lodge Declares the
Sweeping Scope of Food Bill
Is InimicaI to Business

Senator Lodge. acting republican
leader made long speech in the

scope of the bill as inimical to business.
He regretted invoking the cloture rule.
What troubles me in this bill" he
said, lis the attempt to set aside

give the President absolute control OF
all the business in this country"
He spoke in commentator of Her
bert c. Hoover's work in Belgium. but
declared that the running of the bust
ness of this country was an entirely
different matter land beyond the power
of any one man.
Senators from wheat producing states
and the great centers of wheat dis
tribution the Massachusetts, senator
declared, had told him that the mere
threat of this bill had for the moment
destroyed the wheat market and disar-
ranged the great machinery of dis
'tribution.
Rumor Regarding Sugar.
1T am told" he added, that PROPOSE
ton has already been made to fix the
price of sugar. which would make it i'm
possible for the beet sugar manufacturer
Senator Lodge opposed forcing copper
producers to sell at abnormally low prices.
I'VE may save something" he said. but
we will lose more closing ,bs small n, small
tally necessary"
When Senator Chamberlain suggested
that the bill does not direct, but merely
authorizes the President to take control
Of various products. Senator Lodge said
the mere possibility had already greatly
disturbed commerce He declared Congress-
would freely give any legislation needed
to cope with food spectators.
Such men are nothing more than
criminals" he said. land should be
punished to the utmost extent. But
that Is not all that this bill proposes.
It goes far beyond that, and We should
go extremely slow in disturbing ordi-
nary laws of trade and economies"
During today's debate Senator Var
daman Of Mississippi urged that 'sone.
thing" be done to get the bill passed.
He suggested recommitting it to the
agriculture committee.

CALLED TO RANKS :
Of FEDERAL ARMY
President Wilson Orders Ma
tionaI Guard Organizations
to u. S. Service.
DISTRICT DATE, JULY rs

With the Issuance of President Will
sons proclamation calling into the fed
eral service all of the National Guard
organizations of the various states, the
final step preliminary to the execution
of the selective draft for the nrst
American army has been taken.
The liberalization of the guard Is to
be effected in increments. and the plac-
Ing of the federalized National Guard
In active service will be effective Au-
gust 5.
The National Guard of the D. C. is
to be included in the organizations
brought into the federal service July
rs.
Under the proclamation by the Presi-
dent, issued last night, the guard or
CARNATIONS are discharged from the
state service, thus escaping the con-
stitutional provision prohibiting the
calling of the militia of the states for
darieS of the country.
Call to Colors Next Step.
The next step in the process of rails
ing of the national army will be the is
suance of the proclamation fixing the
date for calling to the colors between
$4,000 and 100000 men who regis
"
selective draft itself. Thus far no off,
cial statement has been made in regard
to the date on which the selective
draft will be held. though it is expected
that with the liberalization of the Ma
tional Guard proclaimed the calling to
the colors of close to a million young
men will be fixed within a very short
time and the draft will be made within
a few days thereafter.
Prior to the application of the draft,
National Guard regiments in the north
ern and eastern section of the country
are called into the federal service as
national guardsmen in two increments,
to be modified on July Is and 25.
Many units already are federalized and
presumably they will be modified with
the other troops from their states. The
guard from the other states will be
modified on the day of the draft. The
arrangement was necessary to provide
for movement of the regiments south to
their concentration camps without con-
Eestion, and to the same end the divi-
sion of states into these increments was
revised from the original schedule.
The operative date of the draft was
DELAYED until August SO that all regi-
ments can be taken into the army ST.
multaneously to avoid Inequalities in
the relative rank of officers.

Department. and a branch Of this COM

Germs the leisure provision for the men in
the District of Columbia outside the train
ing camps. This need demands the ade-
Quate and systematic organization of
communities throughout the District, for
which this bill can alone provide The
heart of the problem is to secure respon-
sible parental control and chaperonage

association with these homesick young
men, No substitute can serve for the or
gained chaperonage Of the men and
women in the schoolhouse in each neigh

Third Particular Need.
The third particular need which
this bill is designed to meet II ade-
to increase and conserve the food sup
ply" No word is needed to emphasize
this war necessity.
THE same is true regarding the pro-
visions made in the bill for the use Of
the schoolhouses for cooperative en-
deavor to provide hospital and other
necessities for the American Red Cross
service" Mr.. Henry B. F. Mcfarland
has just informed me that larger ia
cilities must be provided for the Red
Cross service throughout the District
than has already been undertaken.
Finally the bill makes specific pro-
vision for the use Of the schoolhouses
sfor activities intended to enhance the
vigor and health Of the people by means
Of physical training and wholesome rec
reation." With the example Of the Euro
pean nations before US, surely we should
take practical steps to prevent the in
crease Of Juvenile delinquency and the
physical and moral deterioration which
has resulted from the drawing away of
fathers for war service everywhere. To
conserve the visor and health of the
people is important at all times. 1t is i'm
perdtive now.
