ing men to The eoIors by draft:
MAY Offer a Compromise.

President Wilson threw the weight
of his personal influence into the seal
es in an effort to overcome
opposition in Congress to the admin
istration army plans based on the
draft system. Sum1noning Chairman
Dent. of the House military commit
tee, now considering the. bill. to the
White House, the President made 1t
clear that he believes the safety OIL
the nation hangs on the action or
Congress in this regard. He made
a similar exposition of the mill
tary situation to Representa-
tive Anthony, of Kansas, who has
led opposition to the draft plan
among Republican members OF the
military committee.
A compromise plan may be offered
by the opponents of compulsory serV-
ice. A sentiment for such a move
was evident in Mr.. Dents committee
before which Secretary Baker and the
military chiefs of the War Depart
ment assembled in full strength
to support the administrators
policy. There was no lndl-
cation, however, that compromise
would be accepted by the President.
In the Senate, debate on conscrip-
ton has occupied much time during
discussion of the regular army appro-
priation bill, left over from last SEES
sion.
The question is not dealt with in
the bill, but during the debate Sena-
tor Kirby offered an amendment
which would authorize the President
to call volunteers in lots of 100000
! each. The amendment is SUBJECT to
point of order and probably will
be disposed of that way without de-
bate
