special.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. Is
Universal military training. as pro-
vided for in the Chamberlain bill will
be discussed but not passed on at
this session OF Congress.
This is the administration plan. The
militia will be relied upon to meet
any emergency.
II is expected the national guard
will be recruited up to its full
strength to meet the needs Of ma
tional defense, and that it will be
modified to protect harbors. coasts
railroads and other strategic points.
Universal compulsory military train
ing is expected to be one Of the re-
suits OF the present war situation.
There are a few people who think
law OF this character may be jam
/ med through Congress before March
4. II may be said positively, however
that such is not President Wilson's
plan.
The president is not yet committed
to the CONSUMPTION idea. The an
nual report made by Secretary
OF War Baker voiced the opinion OF
the president, to the effect that the
national guard had not had full op-
| portunity TO show what it could dc
in the Mexican border mobilization
and the president further made his
opinion clear when he talked last
week to the delegation from Mary
land who came to urge universal
military service
The Presidents words on that oc-
casion were notably sharp and the
} delegation went away feeling theil
knuckles had been raped
President Wilson scored the cock
sureness of the critics Of the ma
tional guard and made it clear tina
he still believes in the volunteer
system.
Under the stimulus OF a nationa
crisis, as will exist in case Of wa
with Germany. ii Is the administra
TONS belief that there will no lacl
of volunteers and that the nationa
guard can be recruited to its ful
military strength in less than 81
days.
Under the law the guard can b
used for the defense Of the realm o
for foreign service.
The universal military training bill
which comes from Senator Chamber
lain's subcommittee Of the Senatl
military affairs committee is what 4
known as the Moseley Bill, the orlgi
nal draft having been prepared for tn,
National Defense League by an arm,
officer OF that name.
Il bears the approval OF Senators
Chamberlain Brady and Thomas, VIII,
are the subcommittee which ha
been listening to arguments and ties
timony for three months on this sub
ject
The hearings have not yet beer
printed, and it would be unfair Z,
other members OF the military affairs
committee and TO the Senate gen
orally, TO attempt TO pass the bill unit
the printed arguments for and agains
have been available.

Says Congress Won't Pass
Universal Military Training

Senator Brady said to me;
"Our committee is unanimous as to
the main ideas in the bill, namely that
the government should provide some
sort OF universal military training.
1.-THE committee is somewhat di-
vided as to some OF the details OF the
bill, such as when the training should
begin. how long it should last, and
what should be the character OF the
law making exemptions.
Our bill provides for six months
OF military training and it is expect
ed that about FIVE hundred thousand
boys a year would take the train
ing
About a million boys would reach
the age OF 10 each year. but about
half a million would be exempted
under the various exceptions which
the law provides.
These exceptions are for such
reasons as physical unhtness, moral
unfitness, being in the regular army
service on the ocean as sailor, and
religious beliefs"
The plan as worked out by the
subcommittee is less drastic than
the proposals offered by the general
STAFF of the army war college.
The latter have been pushing =

OF military training.
