minister, has issued a denial of the
report that he advocated damage COM

a breach of relations.

after the Parana was torpedoed he
recognized that ii was not a question

Washington. April 13. - President
Wilson, in conference with Speaker

of selected draft.
At the same time, however, il was
learned the war department virtually
has decided on plans under which op-
portunity would be given for approxi-
mately 100000 men to volunteer for
service for the term of the war
The next result of the new plans
would be to make the total national
guard and regular force to be organiz-
ed first independently of the selective
draft plan approximately $4,000 men,
making room for the absorption OF
900 900 volunteers
No attempt to enlist men to accom-
plish this viii be made, however, until
congress has acted
Careful reconsideration of the terms
of the existing national defense act is
re aponsible for the contemplated
change OF the administration policy
in regard 70 the mobilization OF the ma

Officials think the law grants the
states the right to organize additional
guard units up to the fun limit Of 500
men 20 a congressional district
