SELECTIVE DRAFT A LAW
Congress by Overwhelming Majority
Passes War Measure.

Washington, April 3O.-By over
whelming majorities both the senate
and house passed the administration
bill to raise war army by selective
draft.
The final roll calls brought into line
behind the bill many senators and rep
resentatives who had fought for the
volunteer system until routed by de-.
cisive defeat of volunteer amendments
in both houses.
The senate, which had voted down
the volunteer plan SO to 10, passed
the bill by vote of 81 to 8.
In the house the vote against the
volunteer plan was 313 to 119 and that
by which the bill itself was passed was
397 to "a.
AS passed by the senate the meas
ure provides for the draft of men be-
tween the ages of twenty-one and
twenty-seven years, while in the house
measure the age limits are fixed at
FL to forty.
This and lesser discrepancies will be.
threshed out in conference this week so
the bill may be in the hands of the.
president as quickly as possible. The
war department already has complet-
ed plans for carrying it into effect.
Speaker Clark, Democratic Leader
Kitchin and chairman Dent of the
military committee, who had favored
the volunteer system, all voted for the,
draft bill on the final roll call. Repub-
lican Leader Mann also was recorded
in the affirmative, as was Miss Rankin
who previously voted with the volun--
teer advocates.
ed Note-The Herald is pleased to-
note that Congressman Harold Knut--
son of the Sixth district has apparent
ly walked up to the sentiment of his.
district for he voted for the selective.
draft bill at all stages.)

DENLY SUMMONED
Continued from page one)

Her bright smile shall never-more
greet US;
She is gone-in the spring of the year.
At home, mid the roses she's sleeping.
(The heart of the home is not there
And, as we stand, silently weeping,
Life comes to us lonely and drear.
And she, who, so like the sweet roses,
Gave gladly, her strength and her
cheer,
Has gone from the friends who so
loved her;
She is gone in the spring of the year.
But the glow of her life and it's beauty
Shines far mid the earth's cold and
gloom, .
To guide US to far heavenly regions
Where roses are always in bloom.
