DRAFT TO FILL RANKS
MILITIA AND REGULARS UNABLE
TO GET ENOUGH VOLUNTEERS
TO FILL REGIMENTS.
ARMY NEEDS 100000 MEN
Reports From Various States Show
That Recruiting Is Falling Of
Regulations Attacked in
Congress.

Washington, May 29.-The National
Guard must be recruited by draft to
It's war strength of 100000 men.
States are showing falling off in vol
unteer enlistments.
The prospects also are that men
between tWenty-one and thirty years,
inclusive, will have to be drafted be-
fore the summer is over to enable the
government to bring the regular army
to its full authorized war strength.
Army regulations for war registra-
ton are under attack already in the
house. Representative Ware Of Phil
adelphia, by resolution, wants elimtna-
ton of the section requiring state
ments of reason for exemption with
registration. He contends it is UNI
wise and unnecessary and leaves open
for criticism Of lack of patriotism. His
resolution probably will fail.
Since April / there have been 3d.
$40 men recruited for the army out
of total of 1885, 1893 needed to bring
it to full war strength of 293,OOO men.
Unless recruiting, which has shown a
decline during the last week, takes
squirt, it may be necessary to resort
to the draft
Latest reports reaching the militia
bureau of the war department show
that recruiting for the National Guard
not in federal service is not holding
its own. During the last ten days "A
states reported gains in National
Guard recruiting, while ten states. the
District of Columbia and Hawaii re-
port losses. The net result is loss
of 869 men.
The chief factor in the loss is Ohio,
where the National Guard units not
in federal service have dropped from
651 officers and 1O,824 men on May 10,
to 40 officers and 5000 men on May
20, loss of 1888.
The last available figures on the
strength of the National Guard in the
federal service showed that May
there were 3,184 officers and 6S,566
men. There are about 100000 men in
the grand units, which are to be
drafted into tie federal service be-
tween July 10 to August 5.
To bring the National Guard to
full war strength Of 100000 men would
require the addition of more than 2OO,-
600 recruits. Prospects now are that
this additional 100000 cannot be OBJ
tanned without the draft.

GEN. PERsHING GIVEN ORDERS
Expedition to France Planned at Con
ference With the President at
Washington.


Washington, May 90 President Will
son revealed to Major General Perish
ing on Thursday the plants he has in
mind in connection with the service of
American troops in France.
The general called at the White
House by appointment and discussed
the entire military situation with the
chief executive. All the newspapers
are permitted to print regarding his
movements and those Of the division
under his command is that the general
will precede the soldiers to London
and Paris, where he will confer with
the British and French authorities.
BY the time the troops arrive at
their destination General Pershing will

ed ready for action.
It is expected that the president,

WAR TAX BILL WINS
INCOME TAX INCREASE is UP
HELD IN THE HOUSE.
Measure is Passed by Vote of 500 to
76-AlI Democrats Vote for
the Bill.

Washington, May 25.-The house on
Wednesda. finally disposed Of the
much-criticized 81 800, 100000 war rev.
enue bill after fottnight's bitter de-
bate. The senate will now take up the
bill and, it is said, slash it to pieces.
1t may be cut $500, 100000.
On the final passage of the bill the
vote was 300 to 76.
Every Democrat voted for the meas
ure. So did 112 Republicans. All the
negative votes were cast by Republic
ans. Four members voted spresent."
They were Republicans.
Record votes were also taken on the
Doremus and Lenroot amendments.
The first Of these proposed that a 5
per cent tax should not be levied upon
automobiles until the manufacturer
had made s per cent profit on his CAPT.
tai. 1t had been inserted in the bill,
but the house struck 1T out by vote
of 233 to TIA and the tax remains.
The Lenroot amendment increasing
all surfaces on incomes above $4,000
was sanctioned by vote of 345 to 60.
The amendment. imposing 10 per
cent surtax on $4O,O00-$6O,O00 in
comes and rising to a As per cent tax
on incomes more than 81 100000 raises
by one-quarter the original surfaces
proposed by the bill.
The 5 per cent tax on billboards,
street car and other advertising than
newspaper and magazine was struck
out on Kitchin's motion. He said the
raised price on second-class mail would
tax the advertisers sufficiently. Mr..
Fitzgerald of New York succeeded in
amending the bill to make income,
munition and excess profit taxes pay
able when the returns are made. The
present law allows three months after
the returns.

British Premier Praises American
Fleet in commons-No Danger of
Starvation In England.

London, May 28.-'The successes
against submarines have resulted in
distinct Improvement in our food
situation said Premier Lloyd George
on Friday in the house of commons.
The premier said more effective
blows had ben dealt the submarines
in the last three weeks than in any
corresponding period of the war.
Shipping losses for May, the premier
said, probably will show reduction
from April figures.
In speaking of the success Of the
anti-submarine methods, Mr.. Lloyd
George said:
''We owe a very considerable debt
OF gratitude to the great American
people for the effective assistance they
have rendered and the craft they have
placed at our disposal"
He asserted that there was no dam
ger Of starvation threatening the coun-
try.
''The submarine menace need cause
no fear that the war is going to be lost
for that reason" he declared.

GERMANY
KAISER TOLD u. S. FLEET WAS
ON WAY TO THE
WAR ZONE.
GIVEN TIME TO MINE PORTS
Navy Department Starts Wide Investl-
uation-News Believed to Have
Been Sent Through Mexico
or South America.

Washington, May 28.-The German
spy system is in operation within the
United States army and fleet. Not only
are spies obtaining information they
want in this country, but they are able
to get it to Berlin in time for German
submarines to menace American war
ships and soldiers on the seas.
This was admitted by the navy de-
partment. Secretary Daniels announced
on Friday that word Of the sailing OF
an American destroyer flotilla for
Europe had been wired ahead to Ger
many and that German submarines
had succeeded in scattering mines at
the entrance of the harbor for which
the American warships were bound.
The following statement was issued
ssFOr days before the arrival OF the
American destroyer fleet abroad Ber-
lin knew that the vessels were on the
way and to what port they were going,
according to advices from Admiral
Sims.
HE reports that he has positive In
formation that Germany was thus In
formed in advance, and sufficiently TAR
in advance that the port of entrance
of the destroyers was mined the day
previous to their arrival.
''The department calls attention to
this fact as proof that the German spy
system is still at work in this country,
making imperative the need OF Sc
crecy in connection with our naval
operations. The premature publica-
ton of ship movements is particularly
a source of danger.
1.-THE department, while realizing
that the newspapers did not give this
information, would be pleased II the
fact were brought to the attention OF
editors by way Of showing what ex-
IRENE care is required in shielding
military information from the enemy,
whether it becomes public through the
press or otherwise"
The fact that the information
reached Germany with little or no de-
lay is expected to result in a thorough
investigation Of the navy censorship.
1t is quite impossible, in the view
of officials, mat the message could
have gone over either the British or
French cables, the only other con-
struction being open that it went
first to Mexico or South America
and then was relayed by wireless.
The source OF the leak will cause
the deepest PROBE 1t was admitted
shortly after the declaration Of war
that six persons suspected of spying
had been discovered in the state, war
and navy building.
AS soon as the first report was re-
ceived from Admiral Sims showing
German knowledge Of American plans
an investigation was instituted by
the several departments Of the gov
eminent and the secret service.
