No officer or member of the

in any othsr county gets one
penny tor their services and
when they go out on Red Cross
work they bear thesr own ex

ING their bit for their country
and those who say or Intimate
that they get salary, are speak
Ing falsely or talking about
things they absolutely know

from their pro German traitorous

FORMAL ENTERTAINMENT

Washington. April 22.-Formal enter tainments will be given during the next two days for the members of Great Brit aims war commission to the United States, preliminary to the serious busi- ness of discussing cooperation in the fight of the worlds democracies againss Germany. Tired from their long railroad journey, Foreign Minister Balfour and his party retired to rest soon after their ar rival today and the official ceremonies of welcome ended when Secretary Lan- sing had seen the nations guests in stalled in the residence prepared for them.
 So far there has been no announcement of arrangements for the war conferences There will be much opportunity for plan ming tomorrow and Tuesday, for none of the dinners or receptions will be purely of a social character No women ac- companied the visitors, consequently only men will attend the chief functions ar- ranged in their honor.
 Tomorrow MT. Balfour will call on President Wilson, Vice President Mar shall and Secretary Lansing. He will lunch with the French ambassador, J. J. Jusserand, and dine at the White House. Tuesday evening several cabinet dinners will be held with members of the com mission as guests, and will be followed by reception by Secretary Lansing in the pan-American building in honor of MT. Balfour.

 Final arrangements will be made for the presentation of flags and Bibles to the Barrett and Robinson grammar schools at East Lake and the programme for the occasion will be arranged

she would not have precipitated war be- tween the two countries.
 More and more it has become evident that the commission, aside from any technical aid it may render to this coun- try, has come over for a general and broad understanding of the whole Ameri can point of view without as yet having outlined specific programme in its own mind.
 Tt is thought probable therefore, that the direction the conferences are to take will be given largely by President Wilson and Secretary Lansing and that the Brit ish delegates will gladly welcome what ever lead Is given them In that way, it is thought they best can obtain the American viewpoint, and harmonlze any allied policies that seem inconsistent with Americas ideas"

ADMINISTRATION WILL WIN

AS reported yesterday in this cor respondence, it is believed that after a bitter and spectacular fight in the House the administration conscription bill will be enacted into law. In addi- tion to whatever merits are involved in the volunteer clauses, three fac tors do mitigate against the material izatfon of the foregoing predicatiou; First, a majority of the members at heart oppose conscription; secondly, a quota of the conscription forces would yield to that extent which would per init Colonel Roosevelt and other Quixotes imm ediately to plant the flag in the French trenches; and, thirdly, the statement of Secretary Baker to the effect that no army within years time will be sent to Europe. This state ment has convinced certain members that inordinate haste in conscription young men might be unWise
