The Tampa Tribune says Pres
ident Wilson will now arm the
ships without waiting for con-
gressional action and relying on
an act Of nearly a century ago"
Of course, our esteemed contem-
porary is right. but why did the
president ask for authority he
didn't want because of an act
that gave him the authority for
which he asked congress? You
see the case is so muddled that
our language gets mixed in try
ing to write about stiffness
Union.
We don't like to "butt in" on any
controversy that may arise over any
conundrum that may be raised by the
Times-Union, which, by the by. is
quite a conundrum raiser over any
action Of the present administration
but we would like to suggest that
possibly President Wilson. while not
ignorant concerning his powers. might
nevertheless in this instance been
quite willing 10 have congress share
in the responsibility. In actirc irdc-
pendent of any new special authority
at this time. the president is doing
so with the full KNOWLEDGE that con-
gresS and the neorle are beck IF him
have reiterated their coM-cnt to the
Enforcement of that century old act
which empowered the president to act

TO PROSECUTE SLAGKERS NOW
Time for Deiinquents to Register Has
Passed Now-ohio Leads All
the States.

Washington, June 12.-The period
Of leniency ended tonight for men be-
tween the ages Of 21 and 80, inclusive,
who failed TO register for the army

Provost Marshal General Crowder
sent to the governors of all the states
a message asking them to inaugurate
from tomorrow a vigorous. aggressive
and effective enforcement Of the penal
clause of the Seleetive Service Law
against ''all VINO have by their failure
to register brought themselves under
those provisions"
The penalty for failure TO register
June 5 is imprisonment for a year and
enforced registration, but General
Crowder, Immediately after registra-
ton day, recommended that local reg
istration boards provide further OPP
portunity for delinquents.
The Department Of Justice today no
titled United States attorneys TO re-
lease those already arrested for fail
ure to register providing they have
now registered.
General Crowder has nearly COM
pleted a draft Of regulations to gov
ern exemptions and exemption boards,
and expects to lay it before Secretary
Baker in a few days for approval The
general believes no class should be
exempted as such but the local boards
should decide on the circumstances in
each Individual case. He fayors use
OF some device such as a jury wheel
for drawing the names of those to be
examined by the exemption boards.
The regulations will be made public in
detail after Secretary Baker and Pres
ident Wilson approve them.
A few more states reported registra-
tion totals to the provost marshal gen.
erals office today, but indications
were that all would not be completed
for nearly a week.
Among states reporting so far, Ohio
stands first in the proportion Of regis
tration TO the census estimate, with
113 per cent. Illinois has 104,7 per
cent. Wisconsin, 104.6 per cent; New
Hampshire. 1929 per cent: North Car.
