UNIVERSAL TRAINING MEASURE
UP TO NEW CONGRESS
Washington, March IA. - Pres.
Wilson's message to congress, called
in extraordinary session April 16,
will be sharply militant.
Defense measures such as the
country has not been called upon to
furnish since the Spanish-AmeriCan
war will be urged for immediate con-
sideratiOn and prompt action.
Universal training promises to be
the biggest sensation facing con-
gress. Pres. Wilson and SeC'y of
War Baker have sent out an appeal
for thoughtful public opinion upon
the needs and wishes Of the country
on this radical departure from the
military traditions of the country.
In answer to the plea, newspapers
are found thus far to favOr-abOUt
five to adoption of some uni
Versal training plan.
But, according to military author
tiles here, the newspapers are ''far

This registration of public Opin-

fore he addresses congress next

cific plan, but will strongly urge

IT'S A FINANCIAL MORE THAN A
LOVE AFFAIR, 1T SEEMS
Just live a movie. That was the
comment today on the strange things
that have happened to John Colfax
during the past fortnight.
Two weeks ago he was a poor,
dying wanderer, living in a North
Side rooming house.
Today he has several thousand
dollars in real cash, has much more
promised to him and he is the hUs-
band, but only in name, of a New
York society girl.
The lady mentioned in connection
with the case is said to be Phillipa
Hartley of New York. According. to
the story passed around, Miss Hart
ley, to follow out the provisions Of
the will of her rich uncle, Carleton
Hannah of Bombay, India, must be
married within three months of his
death.
He is said to be near the end now
and, to make sure of getting the mo-
ney, Phillipa is said to have Journey
ed to Chicago, where the stranger
was picked as her husband.
One of the provisions of the unique
wedding is said to be that Colfax was
chosen only with the understanding
that, as he was suffering from heart
disease, he can't live much longer.

 In connection with the idea of Gregory Mitchell, it might be men, toned that the promoters who cut the throat of their golden New York goose probably will witness, as the result of their avarice, a revival of "the good old times in the West. Several Western cen ters may legally stage bouts with decisions. Removing the no-decis- ion feature from boxing probably would be equivalent to boosting it immensely.
 Five Star Ball Players Picked
 Five prominent baseball players, with homes in Fresno, Calf, were drawn in the national army draft. The players are Hubert (Dutch) Leonard, the Boston American pitch CT of world series fame; Clarence Brooks, former catcher with the Los Angeles and San Francisco Coast League teams; Clifford Me Carl, former San Francisco first baseman, now manager of the Butte, Mont, team; Howard Mundorff, for mer San Francisco outfielder, and Joe Jenkins, former Chicago Ameri- can player Brooks is now in the Texas League. Leonard was mar ried two weeks ago in Boston to Miss Muriel Worth, vaudeville star.

OLD GLORY At 4 PREMIUM

The Federal trade commission uses
mystifying language in its report to
Congress on the recent advance in the
price Of flags. Admitting the great
demand and with only normal supply
Of flags. the commission nevertheless
insists that prices have been made
"extortionate" and "indefensible.
The admission and the declaration
do not hang together. Given a small
supply and a large demand. and prices
are bound 70 90 up. The people who
really want flags under such circum-
stances are willing TO pay an in
creased price TO get them. The trade
commission evidently would deny TO
these people the right to use their
money for high prices for the fags
they want and would have it that the
people who do not want flags to thai
extent shall have the call. The num-
Der Of flag makers in this country is
small: the number Of mills which
manufacture haz material is smaller
still NE market for flags offers a
perfect illustration Of the working OF
the Law Of supply and demand. OF
course, the Law Of supply and demand
is now a back number. Like the con
stituti0n under the manipulation OF
Senator Lewis Of Illinois. it has been
suspended because we arc N war. Ye.
il is our opinion that both the consti-
tuition and the law OF supply and de-
mand are still in operation, the Fed
eral trade commission and Senator
Lewis to the contrary n~otwithstand-

MOTTO: ALWAYS FAITHFUL"
The Recruit Entering Service Today 10
Paid $50 . Month and the opportu-
mites for Advancement Are
Numerous.
BY EDWARD 3. CLARK.

Washington.-"F1rst in the Fight Is
the wartime slogan Of the United
States marines, while "Semper Fl
delis," always Faithful" is their
motto In peace and war.
So It would seem that IL good works,
coupled with faith, secure a mans sal
walton, there must be some reason as
well as rhyme in the last four lines of
the Marine corps hymn:
II the Army and the Navy
Ever look on Heavens scenes,
They will find the streets are guarded by
The United States Marines.
Recently Uncle Sam has ordered an
Increase In the number Of his marines
to a war strength Of 10000 men,
which numerically means 1000 more
men than there ere in a division of
troops Of the United States army.
There Is room in the marines, there
fore, for any stalwart young Ameri-
can between the ages of eighteen and
thirty-five who wishes to be a soldier
and a sailor in one, to be first In the
fight, and to be able to prove that he
Is always faithful to the ideals of hu-
manity and the ideals of his country.
In the present wal the American be-
lief Is that the two are one.
When congress recently increased
the pay of the army Ii also increased
the pay of the navy and Of the Ma
rine corps. The recruit today who en-
ters the Marine corps viii receive $50
a month pay, an increase of SIS over
the pay In the more or less piping
times of peace. More than this, IL he
goes TO sea, which unquestionably will
be his lot, he will receive 20 per cent
additional, and Ii is generally account
ed that In this war time the 20 per
cent increase viii be continued while
the marine is on land in a foreign
country holding up his end for the
United States.
What is the marine? This is one of
the questions In a little catechism IS
sued by the officials of the corps. The
answer is that the marine Is a soldier
Of the sea.
