WANTS VOTE ON WAR
Prince of Pacifists Bryan in Washing
ton Fights Wilson.

Washington, Feb. 2S.=Former Sec
rotary of State Bryan will support the
administration in the event of war.
But until war comes, he told the
United PresJ today. he will oppose
with all his resources" any steps that
might lead to war. He insisted war
should be decided on only by ref
erendum vote.
Bryan discussed general princi-
Pies freely. He would not, however
tie himself down" to specific answer
to questions
Bryan left no doubt that he would
hold the president to strict letter of
his statement in his message that he
was proposing no steps he believed
would lead to war.
Bryan wants any action taken by
congress to show bluntly that the
president is not authorized either to
declare war "or begin war; he
stated.
His position on transatlantic COM
merce, he said, is that he wants no
passengers on belligerent ships, or on
any ships, for that matter, which
carry contra band

AN EXTRA SESSION
That Congress Will Remain on
the Job Seems Certain.
The Day for Recovering Is
Not Yet Agreed Upon.

Washington, Feb. 2S.-An extra ses-
ion of the Sixty-fifth congress to as
sembIe either within a few days of
the adjournment of the present con-
gress or else on or about May 1 is a
certainty.
This fact was admitted by the lead
ers of both parties in both houses of
congress and the statement as to the
approximate dates of assembling came
from the highest sources of legisla-
tive authority in Washington. The
congestion of national business which
has been becoming daily and hourly
more apparent reached a state where
the physical possibility of passing the
great Appropriation bills was doubtful
today.
A filibuster threatened in the house
of the committee of appropriations
was determined that the authorization
of a 100000 appropriation to inves-
tigate the food situation should not be
included in the sundry civil bill. He
was also determined that the bill
should be acted upon before the house
should adjourn and evidenced a dis
position to fight
Meanwhile the senate was enga ged
turnout the day with discussion of the
administration revenue bill and under
an agreement, today must be devoted
to the same measure up until O'Clock
in the evening. In the senate the

10000 army bill both await consid-

HAS NO FAITH IN 1T
William Hirth Before C. of c. Against
Government Ownership.

About three hundred people half
CT them legislators, heard William
Hirth, editor of the Missouri Farmer
and authority on transportation. pre-
sent his ideas of Government Owner
ship at the Chamber of Commerce
at noon today
Hirth, far from quoting figures in
dulged in rhetoric and humor in pre-
senting the arguments against gov
eminent ownership and painted an al
Turing picture of railroad manage
ment under the pork barrel system
in Washington city,
He said in part:
Il do not believe that ever before
in the history of the county has the
personal integrity of our legislators,
both state and national, been as high
as it is at this time. Our danger from
time forward lies in mistaken judg-
ment rather than from political COR
ruption. So, too, the railroads find
themselves completely surrounded by
state and federal regulation and,
therefore, the task which beckons to
US IS to see to it that those mistakes
or others equally bad do not occur
again in the future.
"At this juncture let me say that,
whatever may have been the sins of
the railroads in the past, when we
consider the fact that American rail-
roads are capitalized for only ap
proximately half as much per mile as
the government owned lines of Eu-
rope that they charge only about half
as much for hauling the freight of the
manufacturer, merchant and farmer
and pay their employees fully twice as
much in wages-when we think of
these things, is IT not possible that,
after all. our railroads are not as
black as they have been painted? Is
not the proof of the pudding in the
eating? Why do you suppose that
seven out of every ten business men
are in favor of liberal policy toward
the railroads, and their most merciless
critics are those who pay the least
freight ?'

CONSERVE FORESTS
Solution of Paper Pulp Shortage
Simple for L. S. if Developed.

Washington, Feb. 2s.-Conserva-
ton of the country's forests as a
means of insuring a future paper
supply was urged in a statement is
sued today by Carl Vrooman, assist
ant secretary of agriculture. The pa
per problem, he said. primarily is a
forest problem and can be solved by a
reforestation and scientific forestry
to keep up a continuous production
of pulp woods.
''At the present moment" the
statement said I'VE are using daily
5000 tons of news print paper and
this is increasing at the rate of 10
per cent a year We need about Z
million cords of pulp year for all
our paper products and at present
only two-thirds of this supply is
grown in our own forests.
Both public and private enter
prise must assist in the intelligent re-
forestration of private lands. We
must provide for the development of
privately owned timber lands by
compelling fire protection and then
checking annual losses amounting to
millions OF dollars.
There are plenty of paper re-
sources in the United States. The
trouble is that they are undeveloped,
unorganized and unnationalized."

proposed amendment and failed on

The resolution raising the limit up
on the number of proposed constf-

lieved to be a dead letter in the senate.

tutional majority.
The resolution adopted. introduced
by Senator Barr of Bourbon, took the
limit off the number of amendments
that might be submitted. The limit
is now three. While the senate
adopted the resolution it also adopted
an amendment offered by Senator
Price of Clark, fixing the limit at six
Under the amended resolution six pro-
