|ND0RSE WILSON'S PLANS.
MANY OF REPUBLICANS AND
PROGRESSIVES STAND BY
PRESIDENT.
Far Reaching Readjustment of Nat
iOnal Life Urged as Necessary Step
by Them.

Progressive and Republican party
leaders issued a statement here to-
nisht pledging their support of th,
administration wnr plans ana uyGiu.
the adoption of measures which the }
said they believed to be immediatel,
necessary.
| Among those who signed the state.
ment were: Hiram w. Johnson, Ray
mond Robins, Harold L. Ickes. Will
liam Draper Lewis, Clifford Pinchot
Miles Poindexter, Ogden Reid, E. A
Van Valkenburg, Chester Rowell and
William Allen White.
ITO carry forward the plans of ou.
government with full success" the
| statement says, 1--WE believe that the
following measures are Immediately
necessary:
| Universal military service to in
sure equality of sacrifice in the ma
tional defense.
Universal Industrial service of men
and property in support Of the na-
ton.
"An official guarantee that the gov
ernment will buy at stated prices all
| agricultural products offered, so as to
encourage the largest possible produc-
ton on our farms.
Government control Of the price of
the necessities of life, including rent,
food and fuel. to stop undue increases
of the cost Of living.
Federal and State guarantees to
the wage earners of America that
their rights shall not be lost, so that
the sacrifices that are required OF
them in common with all other citi-
zens during the war shall not con-
tinue after peace is restored.
Governmental cooperation to
maintain and develop the efficiency
of law abiding enterprises, thus pre-
serving the foundation Of our com
mercial prosperity.
"A graduated income tax, by which
an increasing part Of the larger in
comes shall be conscripted for pub
lie purposes, so that wealth may bear
its fair share in the general sac
rifices.
"a limit upon profits on America,
and allied government orders and
supertax on excess profits due to wa
conditions. To lend our allies s.
OOO,0O0.0O0 and exact the return o
much Of it in extortionate profits
would be indefensible.
"Conservation of grain so far
possible for food purposes.
"The payment of as much of tn
cost Of the war as can be met ont :.
current revenues.
National and State legslatio
.'ranting women equal political righ
with men, thus completing the estab
lishment Of democracy.
1.-The retention and control Of al
natural resources now held by tb
government.

With peace will come industrial re-
adjustment A government commits
sion should be organized now to pre-
pare for the distribution of unem-
ployed labor after the war and foi

o. men is an entirely different thing"
Supplementing Secretary Bakers
letter, the minority report says the
members of the committee are lay
men and adds "in this great crisis we
deem it to be our patriotic duty In
this matter of increasing temporarily
the military establishment OF the
United States to follow the counsel Of
the commander-in-chie Of our army
and his expert advisers"
OF the place for volunteers in the
administration plan the minority
says:
Some Of those who favor the VOL
unteer system point with pride to the
fact that 1000 volunteers are enlist
ing every day at the present time. Ac-
cording to letter from the secretary
of war to the chairman Of the COM
mittee, 724,71S volunteers will be re-
quired for our regular army and the
National Guard organization. 1t
would therefore take 724 days, includ-
ing Sundays or about two years, to
get the volunteer forces required for
these two branches alone of our mill
tsry establishment. Does that LOOK
very hopeful?"
