ALLIESSEE BIG AID
TN U. 5. FINANCES
Believe America in War
Would Help Most with
Buying Power
BY YVES GUIOT
By Cable to The 1ribunel

Paris. Feb. 5.-News OF the dlplo-
matte break between the United States
and Germany outranks all other news
here. Will the Kaiser, who has aoso-
Lutte power over peace or war, recon-
is the query. Everything is possible
If he does not draw back it IS war.
The question is also raised as TO
what aid the United States could BRING
the Allies in this case. One considera-
BILE assistance would be Germany's loss
of communication with the United
States and the help of Americas power
full fleet. which would greatly interfere
with the safety of German submarines.
But tie most effective aid would
come financially. The Allies are now
obliged to pay the United States tor
all they buy there. In case of war with
Germany. however. the United States
would become their great source OF
supply and would pay for part of the
purchases for which the Allies are re
sponsible at present. This would be a
powerful support 70 the Allied finances.
Ii is beyond belief that the Kaiser
whose resources are exhausted. has not
understood the new force he Is g,viHr
the AIlies-and for what. The "Bet-
liner Tageblatt" estimates that the
total loss inflicted on shipping % to
1917 reaches 100000 tons. Let thai
be granted or even doubled. Ii would
not reach 10 per cent of the total ton

sages and resolutions were sent to
President Wilson, indorsing his stand
in the present crisis, and offering 70
place at his disposal, in the event o.
war. Industrial plants and resources
as well as individual service.

Leaders Visit Whitman and
Make Offer-TO Teach
Boys to Shoot

Citizens Of German birth or descent
called on Governor Whitman yesterday
at the Hotel st. Regis with plan TO
raise a Teutonic regiment for the Ma
tional Guard. Although the Governor
refused TO discuss this or other plans
that were still in the making, It -
understood that the originators OF the
project will 90 ahead with 1t, and when
the ranks are filled repeat the ofer.
Ore of the men most active SAID:
"As proof OF our loyalty to the Stars

sively and offer it fully armed ana
equipped first to the Governor and
then to the United States government

but several New York regiments VIII
be formed if necessary. We have no
doubt either that in case of hostilities
with Germany other states VIII organ

Votes Against Discussing
Request for Repeal of
Slater Act
COMMISSION WANTS
ALL BOYS INCLUDED
Plans Change in Law to
Repeal Exemption of
Those at Work

The Board of Education voted yester-
day. at its annual meeting, against dis
cussing the repeal of the Slater and
Welsh laws, which provide for physical
training in schools as a measure of de-
fence. The members agreed that, what
ever their opinions concerning military
training in schools might be, the pres
ent was no time even to mention the
possible repeal of laws which would tit
youths 20 begin real military training
on leaving school
The Military Training Commission, at
its session in New York, decided that
all boys between the ages OF sixteen
and eighteen ought TO give at least
three hours i week 10 military prepara-
ton.
After six hours' discussion in the
list Regiment Armory, Park Avenue
and Thirty Street. yesterday the
commission unanimously decided to
recommend the elimination of that pro
vision of the Slater preparedness act
passed at the last session of the Legls-
ldlnit HHAAH GAtDADko MOlhtAtS IVY >
from the military training prescribed
by the commission.
Immediately upon reaching its deci-
sion the commission telegraphed As
semblyman Clarence +. Welsh, of AL
bany, to hasten presentation to the Leg
islature of an amendment to the Slater
bill.
Assemblyman Welsh has prepared an
+baf tho IL "a
training requirement may be met By
working boys "in part by such yoca-
tional training or experience as shall
specifically prepare them for service
useful to the state in the maintenance
of defence. the promotion of public
safety, the conservation of resources or
the construction and maintenance of
public improvements
THE present law places the obliga-
ton of military training upon all boys,
sixteen, seventeen and eighteen years
old" said Major General John F.
o'Ryan. chairman of the commission,
last night. at specifically exempts boys
of these ages who are earning llyell-
hood. This exemption places the obll-
CATION for military training on school
bows only. We believe the obligation
should rest on all boys Of the pre-
scribed ages.
THE proposed amendment gives the
Military Training Commission power
70 accept as substituted equivalents for
the prescribed military training such
occupations as tend to tit boys for ser
vice. Few persons realize what mill
tary training in all its forms really is.
Just as an indication of this aspect, we
are told that for every man on the
firing line in Europe there are seven
men behind the lines.
"If this amendment is adopted, the
commission will be authorized, for in
stance, to accept the work of boy
working im a bakery, foundry or as a
craftsman. as fulfilling, partially at
least. the state requirements for mill
tary training"

The executive committee OF the May
or's Committee on National Defence
sent telegram TO President wilson
Yesterday pledging him its support and
urging that he exert his influence with
Congress, in the event of war, for the
passage OF legislation providing Tor
universal military training and service
under exclusive Federal control and
the raising Of an army from the eiti-
zens most properly available for SER
vice.
The executive committee, which con-
sists of Willard d. Straight, chairman;
Cleveland II. Dodge, William y. Dyke
man. Henry l.. Stimson. Major Francis
G. Landon, Sheriff Alfred Z. Smith and
Alexander VI. White, met in the May
or's Office yesterday afternoon. The
committee passed a resolution, the sub
stance OF which later it embodied IN
the telegram 10 The President.
The resolution passed by the COM
mittee says:
Whereas, the experience of the ma
ton has proven the impossibility OF
raising military forces by voluntary
enlistment, even in the face of such
urgent necessity as existed in the Civil
War. and
Whereas. the mobilization Of the
National Guard in 1915 not only al
forded another demonstration of the
failure OF the volunteer plan, but also
emphasized the injustice and economic
unwisdom of calling into military ser
vice men with heavy business and fam
lily responsibilities, while there was
available in the country a far more
than sufficient number of unmarried
men who had not attained a high
economic value. and
"Whereas, the raising of volunteer
army capable of defending the nation
against power of the first class would
multiply many times the confusion and
distress that attended the operation OF
the volunteer plan last summer. dis
rupting the nations business, bringing
restitution upon the wives and chill
dren of mature men whose patriotism
would lead them to enlist. and leaving
free from military duty hundreds of
thousands of young men whose service
would cause the minimum of loss, be 1t
"Resolved, that the executive COM
mittee of the Mayors Committee on
National Defence of the City of New
York earnestly urges upon Congress
that. in the exercise of its rights un-
der the Constitution, it should enact
laws cmbodying the principle of uni
verssl military training and service and
providing for such methods of selection
as will bring first into training and
service that class of the male popula--
ton which, from both economic and
military considerations, is most prop
erly available"

Endorses Mayors Remarks at BIBLE
Class Dinner

In an address before 400 members oil
the Young Mems Bible Class OF the
Fifth Avenue Baptist Church, at It's
twentieth annual dinner, held last
night at the Aldine Club, Mayor Mitchei
made a strong plea for universal mill
tary training. Calling the system en-
Gent and democratic, ne asserted tnat
its establishment was the only answer
TO the question of national security
now before the country.
His plea was Endorsed by John ~
Rockefeller, jr., the POSTMASTER as a
system which would do away WIN
class feeling and eradicate the idea OF
mistaken superiority often held by
men of wealth.
The Mayor outlined the progress
made in the various departments OF the
city government, expressing particular
pride in their aecompil shments along
sociological lines. Referring TO the
nresent crisis, he said that the precau-
tionarv measures taken by the state
and CITY governments 10 protect pubic
nropertv were taken not because the
LOYALTY of any citizen was suspected,
hut TO guard against the ac;ion OF some
frenzied fanatic. .u,
Herbert Bayard Swope, who followed
the Mayor. described conditions IN
Germany. He declared that IN the
present situation Germany had fuiiy
considered results before declaring Tor
campaign of ruthless warfare. Ger
many may be suffering from prlyauon;;
but not from starvation, he said, and
prophesied that before Germany was
beaten her women would be bearing

ORDERS SUDDENLY
FORESTALL RETURN
OF STATE TROOPS
Soldiers at Border Expect
Further Demand for Fed
eral Service
by Telegraph 10 The Trioms J

FL Paso, Tex, Feb. From all along
the border to-day comes news that
homeward movements of state troops
preliminary 20 the expected muster out
have been suddenly halted on official
orders. The men interpret this as the
first step in further demand for Fed
eral service.
The South Carolina and Tennessee
units stationed here had already. en-
trained for home when they were halt
ed. The quartermaster's department
received an order from General Funs-
ton suspending the return of all state
troops in this section.
The I'd Wisconsin Infantry, AT Camp
Wilson, near San Antonio, was to leave
tomorrow for Fort Sheridan TO be mus
tered out. When the orders to remain
in camp were received, the men, 10 per
cent of whom are OF German descent
turned out for patriotic demonstra
ton, pledging themselves TO any ser
vice which the United States might re-
quire of them.
The Maryland regiment expected to
leave Eagle Pass ,o-day for Baltimore.
They were entraining when General
Funston's orders stopped them.
The 9th Nebraska Guardsmen were
on their way from Liano Grande to
muster out at Fort Crook, Neb., when
they we're stopped.
Washington, Feb. BIT was said here
to-day that General Funston had no
orders from the War Department to
cancel the return of state troops from
the Mexican border. The explanation
was offered that he was holding some
of the organizations for reasons known
to himself, though not TO the depart
ment II was suggested that the orders
were not related to the crisis with Ger
r,aa
