President Wilson and Secretary Baker took up today differences be- tween the Senate and the House bills. The conferees, adjusting differences between the two houses, will be in- formed as result of where the ad- 1ninistration stands on disputed points.
 The age limits of 21 to 27 fixed in the Senate bill are preferred by the since they more nearly approximate the desire of the war department for age limits of from 19 to 25. The limits from 21 to 40 fixed by the House bill are un- satisfactory to the administration.
 A date for the registration of those liable to service will not be formally fixed by the President until the bill has been perfected in both houses. Until that time no campaign will be undertaken ito recruit the regular army and the National Guard up to full war strength.
 After. passage, which the measures friends hoped would be tonight or to- morrow, it will go to conference. and probably will be ready for>the presi- dents signature before the week ends. In conference the main differences to be harmonized are the variance of maximum ages of men liable to draft,

U. s. TREASURY
 CERTIFICATES
 TO FLOAT SOON
Next Block of Securities Will Be Used to Aid
 France and Italy.

Washington. April 30-The federal McAdoo that funds to be raised under the $7.000, 100000 war finance law be obtained gradually by offering to the banks of the country blocks of treas ury certificates to be retired later with bonds every two weeks.
 Indications are that Secretary Mc- Adoo soon will announce the offer of another block of certificates. The proceeds would be applied to the loans to be made to France and Italy. which will total from $20o, ,000.000 to $300,- O00s000.!
 The federal reserve boards sug- gestion contemplates that the certifi- cates be offered to highest bidders, no offer below par being accepted. The offer would be open to all banks stitutions as we'll as members of the reserve system and to individu- als.
 Certificates would be convertible in- to bonds or payable in cash at the option of the holder. If taken by the banks exclusively, the certificates could be used in lieu of cash in paying for bonds.
 Under this plan a bank whose de- positors subscribe to the bonds would not have to forward cash, but could forward certificates, thus strengthen ing it's financial position and avoid ing the risk of disturbance in the money market by large withdrawal of money in payment for bonds.
 The board today began it's consider ation of the needs of France at a luncheon to a number of the visiting French delegation.

gun laying plans. Some time later we received letter from Morris HillQu1t of New York, saying that the 4Ameri- can socialists demanded that peace conference be held not later than March 1 and that if we did not call one they would. We asked them to wait until the middle of March. It is absolutely untrue to say we are meet ing at German or Austrian solicita- tion or instigation. We have been urged to take the step not only by Americans but by Danes, Norwegians and others. The coming conference will be neutral in every sense of the word designed to serve no cause ex- cept the cause of universal peace We are holding it at this time because conditions seem favorable especially in view of the Russian revolution
 Other prominent socialists now in Stockholm include M. Stauning, Danish minister without portfolio; the Dutch senator Van Kol and Herr Albarda. The first of the preliminary sessions will be held on Saturday presided ovef by Hjafmar Granting, Swedish social ist leader. Camille Huysmans, Bel gian socialist leader, and Emile Van dervale, Belgian minister of nluni- Hons, are expected here soon.
 The preliminary meetings and the assembling of delegates are likely to take more time than had been ex- pected, and it is probable that the convention will not assemble until af- ter May 15.

There is very little change in the situation already reported. Reuters correspondent headcuarters, tele- graphs today. The Germans continue to bring up fresh troops and to de- liver counter attacks, more particular ly in the neighborhood of Oppy. and from their trench system down to Gavrelle. The British hold the wind mill northeast of the latter village and have improved their posts along the southwestern slope of Greenland hill. Continuous fighting is in progress around the Roeux .chernical works.
 Tn a general way.'' continues the correspondent, s4the situation this morning along the front of the attack which began at daybreak on Saturday is that we hold the German front line from the point where the Bai1leul- Biacl1e loop line crosses the trenches northwest of Gavrelle to the work in the Oppy line between that place and Arleux. Beyond this work we hold the German support line for length of about 1,200 yards. Thence our front continues just east of Arleux.
 Various German documents have been captured urgently emphasize the expenditure of shells of all types, as neooastty of sconomizing strictly in the the dearth of material is seriously minimizing the output of supplies. It is urged also that the artillery officers be trained to employ guns the inner tubes of which are worn out on tar gets that do not necessitate very ac- curate shopping, as the output of new guns is limited"
