Washington, July 2l.-1t took only
an hour today to put the great $780,
900, 900 aviation bill through the Uni
ted States senate. AS soon as the
food control bill had been disposed
of, Senator Chamberlain unexpected
" called Up the air feet measure.
president. II could have been ready
earlier had 1t not been that Senator
Calder. of New York. was anxious
to have some legislation drafting
aliens added to the bill. He was con-
WINGED, however. by other senators
that this discussion would only de-
lay the main bill So Calder with
drew his amendment on the under
standing that it would be taken up
early next week on It's own merits.
Hardwick. OF Georgia. attempted
today to strike fro mthe bill the pro-
vision allowing the president to draft
avtators- His motion was defeated
by vote of Sc to IL. The only men
who voted with Hardwick on this
amendment were:
Borah. Broussard. Curtis. Gore.
Gronna. Kirby, LaFollette. Mcclellan.
Norris, Gwen ANDY ardarlan.

proposition by Senator Wen to
have committee of expenditures to
supervise contracts in connection with
the bill was defeated by an over
whelmtng viva voce vote. This, how
ever. indicated little as about an hour
before the senate had passed In con-
va txs{fh be 81 4
authorization for joint committe
ON war expenditures.
IaFollette, of Course.
Debate on the draft proposal in
the aviation bin was short but bitter.
LaFollette. of Wisconsin. made an
excited speech, in which he registered
his opposition, saying:
Il wish to reply to the statement
made by the senator from Massachu-
OF the military system OF the United
States I shall stand for the repeal
of the draft lawSand viii offer such
bill on the floor OF the senate and
fight for II as long as I can.
The question will be an issue in
the next election and I make the pre-
dict!on that 80 per cent OF tho peo-
pie will register their protest against
it at the ballot box"
f1cdtFa denial was maze py trTcn-
ma. OF North Dakota. that he had ever
said he intended to hold up the bill.
However" he went on. this lying
insinuation that I wished to hamper
the bin by voting against the draft
has not changed my position. I shall
vote for the Hardwick amendment :"
And he did.
Senator IaFoliette voted loudly
no against the bill. As far as could
be heard his was the only protesting
voice.
II is proposed to provide a flying
personnel of $4,000 men. An air fleet
OF 22.5oo machines Will he built at
once and put into action on the firing
line. This number It Is proposed TO
build within the year.

Soon after Count Won Rernstorff's

Service men threw a guard about the

these. Various branches Of the Gov
ernment have informed themselves ON
the subject far more completely than
might be thought Officials express
themselves as satisfied that they will
be able to cope with the situation. In
the army and navy, and in the citizen
ship generally, officials realize that the
composite character of American ma

some persons who will express sympa-

Senator Thomas introduced an
amendment to the House Revenue bill
proposing an issue Of $500, O,0O0, 900 nom
interest-bearing Treasury notes to put
the nation In "state of naval and

The amendment was read, but not
discussed. The notes would be pay

ernment purchased munitions, could
be used to pay taxes and would be re-
deemable in 1895.

GERMANY TO FIGHT TO END.

Berlin (via London). - Chancellor
Won Bethmann-Hollweg and other
Ministers attended an important meet
ing of the Ways and Means Commit
tee of the Reichstag, at which the en-
tire war situation was gone over and
new steps planned by the Central
Powers were considered The Chan.
cellor is quoted as saying: "On De-
cember II l explained to the Reich.
stag the reasons which led to our
peace offer. The reply Of our op-
ponents clearly and precisely said that
they declined peace negotiations with
US and want to hear only OF a peace
which they dictate. By this the whole
question of guilt for the continuation
OF the war is decided. The guilt falls
alone on our opponents. Just as def.
mite is our task. The conditions OF
the enemy we cannot discuss. They
could only be accepted by a totally
defeated people, II, therefore, means
that we must fight.
But what are the peace conditions
of the Entente1 GermAny,s defensive
force is to be destroyed, we to lose
Alsace-Lorraine and our Eastern prov
inces, the Danube monarchy to be dis
solved. Bulgaria again to be cheated
of her national unity, and Turkey to
be pushed out Of Europe and smashed
in Asia. The destructive designs OF
our opponents cannot be expressed
more strongly. We have been chal-
lenged to fight to the end. We accept
the challenge, we stake everything and
shall be victorious"
