MILITARY: BILLS
ARE PRESENTED
Chamberlain's Compulsory Serv-
ice Measure introduced in the
Senate Today.
Estimates That Approximately
100000 Men Can be Raised
as a Result.

Washington, April 3.-Universal
compulsory military training legisla-
ton was formally launched today in
the senate and Senator Chamberlain
of Oregon, chairman Of the military
committee, introduced his amended
bill providing for training of about
100000 men of 20 years Of age, and,
thousands more up to % years Of
age. The bill was referred to the
committee.
Changing it to make it effective in
promptly raising armed forces, Sena-
tor Chamberlain completed his uni
versal compulsory military training
bill early today.
The chief change provides for reg
istration and training this year of men
years men of 81, % and 23 years
would be subject to training upon
call of the president.
Whether the bill will have the sup
port of the administration has not
been fully developed.
How many men call upon those
from 20 to 20 years of age would
raise. Senator Chamberlain said. was
problematical, but he estimated the
100000. He predicted that "if we
should have long war we would
doubtless have to raise troops by COM
pulsory service" and said universal
training plan would determine defin-
itely the number of men available.
The general staff universal train
ing bill was introduced in the house
by Representative Kahn Of Califor-
MIA, and a bill identical with this
Chamberlain measure was presented
by Representative Caldwell of New

Wilson'S speech:
'"The president frames the issue in

The Russian revolution enables him
to commend it to them as q conflict
between virtues Of democracy and the
crimes of autocracy."
The Standard says that Germany
in bringing the crushing material and

templates a surrender and that her
