BRYAN COMING
TO DELIVER
MESSAGE
Speaks in Ell Centre on the
Morning of May 1-Ap-
peals to the Ranchers.

William Jennings Bryan, VINO
speaks here on the Chautaqua pro-
gram, the morning of May brings
to Chautauqua audiences what might
be termed semi-officia! message
from the government OF the United
States, according to recent press re-
ports. Upon the declaration Of the
United States Congress that a state
of war exists between iris country
and Germany, Mr.. Bryan immediate
ly wired the president that he stood
ready to enlist as a private or to
serve the government ir whatever ca
pacity he was needed.
A few days later he had a confer
ence with President Wilson and the
President authorized him to confer
with the heads of the various depart
ments of the government AMI sscer-
tain from them the message they
wished delivered to the people of the
country as to plans, methods and
means by which everybody could help
III the war, even though they were
not able to shoulder arms for their
nations defense, says the Associated
Press.
Military authorities ar agreed that
never before has there been a war
where the victories we've to he won
just as decidedly on tn. grain fields,
in the factories, and through the eff
forts of chemists, inyen,o:s ard fnan-
ciers as in this struggle with Ger
many.
Mr.. Bryan, in his zeal to serve his
country where he may do the great
est good, will thus tell the people. in
his vigorous and striking manner, how
each person may do the tasl, most
needed for his country in these try
ing times.
While Mr.. Bryan's contract de-
mands that he be released from his
speaking engagement at any til, e he
is needed in other lines of work for
his country, President Wilson evi-
Gently believes that Mr.. Bryan'sgreat-
est mission right now is to appeal
to the .ountry for it's greatest pa
triotism and its greatest effort to
succeed in the war, both by training
its soldiers and by supplying food
and ammunition to- grea, part Of
the entire world.

SECRETARY Of
NAVY PLANS
USING BOY
SCOUTS
(By United Press)

Washington, April 28.-It is learned
that the navy's war legislation in
cludes the plan to assign 5000 volun-
teer boy scouts to patrol duty on
both coasts, the government to feed
and house them. Secretary Daniels
is keenly interested in the part these
boys may play in the war. Some of
the boy scouts are now used in teach
ing recruits signaling.
In the Senate a strong effort is
being made to pass the Roosevelt
division amendment. Senator Lodge
declared that the moral effect of the
former president leading an army
would be wonderful. He held that
such practice could not injure the uni
versal service principle
President Wilson has submitted to
Congress estimates for $2,300,000 for
war expenses, including $1,00O,000 to
guard and feed the interned aliens.

WHITE READY TO
ENTER RING
SUNDAY

Tomorrow afternoon at MeXicali
Jack White and Joe Galindo meet in
the ring to determine the much moot
ed question as to fistic superiority
At the first clash White became dis
abled in an early round and was com
PEELED to withdraw in the fourteenth
and forfeit the purse. Since then
White has been training faithfully
and reports that his broken hand has
Leen restored to it's former strength.
Since the battle between White and
Calindo. the latter fought q draw with
Chief" at Calexico. While "Chief"
is rated as a good man, followers
of White have been encouraged in the
belief that had not the accident oc-
Cured Galinda would have been put
out early in the game.
But Galindo is one to be reckoned
with and as the winner is to take all
ard a side bet in addition, both fight
ers may be expected to battle with all
the cunning that long experience has
taught them.
Billy Stewart of the Imperial Ath-
letic Club will be the third man in
the ring.

VOLUNTEER FEATURE IS VOTED OUT OF
ARMY BILL, RUSSIA IS GIVING CONCERN
Kahn Amendment Is Adopted in the House by Vote Of
279 to 96-Opponents Concede That Senate Will Take
Similar Action-German Agents Are Trying Hard to
Have Russian Agree to Make Separate Peace Terms.
(By United Press)

Washington, April 2s.-Selectrive
conscription is practically assured
since the House, by vote of 279 to
a6, adopted the Kahn amendment
the volunteer features
from the army bill. Those against
the measure expect the Senate to take
similar action before midnight. The
adoption of Kahn's amendment leaves
the bill as President Wilson wanted it.
The Allied commissioners are Civ
ing special attention to the Russian
situation and the American commis-
sion's visit there. 1t is admitted that
if the German Socialists inveigle the
new government into separate peace
that it would be necessary for Amer
ics to send millions of soldiers to
Europe. Germany would then have
a new source of supplies and would
thus be able to frustrate the Allied
blockade.

COUNTY defense COMMITTEE HANDS IN
RESERVATIONS ACCOUNT OF STATE LAW
Lack of Authorization From Adutant General Is Said
to Have Induced Resignati0ns-Law of the State
Automatically Provides for Successors, Who Are
Expected to Organize in the Very Near Future

Not having received authorization
from the state adjutant general to
continue and not being in conform
ity with the state defense law recent
ly enacted. the Imperial County De-
Tense Council committee resigned yes
terday afternoon.
The state law provides that this
committee shall consist of the SUI
perior judge, district attorney, sher
iff and the chairman Of the Board
of Supervisors, and three additiona.
ones to be named by the former.
The committee that has stepp lut
was appointed by the chairman of the
Board of Supervisors, who deemed It
essential to the welfare of the COM
munity to provide some central gov
erning body until such time as the re-
cent state legislation could be put in
to effect.
Chairman Lin F. Shaw returned
from Riverside yesterday and, togeth-
er with the other members of the
original committee are said to have
resigned, according to Statement:
made this morning by Mr.. Shaw.
At the present time there is really
no organized defense in the county.
but the various units formed remain
intact and will be ready at mo-
ment's notice to affiliate with the
new defense committee, which is sus-
tanned by the state defense council. In
the meantime the rifles will not be
used until an organization has been
perfected and permission from the
adjutant general received.
The resignation of tn cold cont
mittee is not Indicative of any fric-
tion, it is said, but swept away the
irregular organization and makes way
for the kind specified in thu recent
state defense enactment.
