 WASHINGTON. March 26.-Another unsuccessful effort to pass the war de- oartment bill extending the selective iraft act to youths reaching 2l years )f age since June ,, 1917, was made to- lay by the senate. Debate on the com lulsory universal military training amendment of Senator New of In- iana, again prevented vote, but eaders still hoped to dispose of the bill n time for it's operation in connection with the next draft.
 Senator New accepted an amend mcnt offered by Senator Sterling of South Dakota providing that youths be- ween 10 and 21, subject to the pro- posed universal training, would be re- quired to spend six months in camp during the two year training period.
 Withdrawal of Amendment Urged
 Senator Fletcher of Florida urged the Indiana senator to withdraw his amendment, saying the war probably would end within six months and that no men would be secured for the army under the plan. In declining, Senator New said he hoped universal training would become a permanent military policy.
 Senator Sherman of Illinois, speak, ing for the amendment, criticized Sec retary Bakers opposition to the uni versal training policy and expressed the hope that when the secretary re- turns from Europe he will have ceased in his heart to be a pacifist.'

MADISON, Wis, March 26.-Vice- President Thomas R. Marshall opened his speaking campaign in behalf of Joseph E. Davies, democratic candi- date for United States senator in Wis consin here tonight by appealing to republicans to cast their votes for Davies.
 T come to Wisconsin. to find if 100,- 900 republicans will not count the loss of partisanship cheap if thereby Wis consin may be saved to the union,' said Vice. President Marshall. "No re- publican can come to the senate from the state of Wisconsin, without a. feel ing on the part of the imperial Ger man government that that senator, having changed his mind once, may, by the shifting of a few hundred votes in Wisconsin, be induced to change it again. The republican party cannot tear down democratic work and erect in it's place republican work without detriment to the plans of the com mander- in- chief now being carried out
 Your state of Wisconsin is under suspicion. Your republicans have made the issue here in Wisconsin. If the vote at the primary is based upon the charges and counter charges which you have made each against the other you are about half for America, half for the kaiser and all against Wilson, Your self-appointed leaders are now trying to convince the loyal half that the really important thing is not loy- alty or disloyalty. but party success"

 BOSTON, March 25.-Dr. Karl Muck, conductor of the Boston Symphony Or chestra, who was taken into custody last night as an enemy alien, was lodged tonight in cell in the East Cambridge jail after he had been ques- toned at length by officials of the de- partment of justice. It was announced that no decision as to the final diSpo- sition of the case was reached and that Dr. Muck would be examined again within a few days. Officials continued to maintain silence as to the specific reasons for his detention.
 For six hours the orchestral conduc- tor was the center of interest at the federal building.
 His Biggest Predicament'
 "This is the biggest predicament l have ever been in my life," he said when asked by newspaper photogra- phers to pose for picture. T am not inclined to pose for anything" Assistant District Attorney Judd Dewey gave orders that Dr. Muck was to see no one, but an exception was made in the case of Charles A.

One of the American sharpshooters reported that he had spoiled a number of these new spring suits" by knocking the wearers into the mud with bullets from his "Springfield.'
 Shoot at Some Airships
 Normal aerial activity continued to- day the weather being favorable till late in the afternoon when clouds and light snow flurries passed over the line. The American anti-aircraft gunners had a number of chances during the day to show their skill and this they did. They drove off enemy airmen who attempted singly or in groups to prowl over the line. There were several aer- ial combats between planes carrying American observers at the guns, but these were without result, probably because the airmen were unable to get close enough to the Germans.
 Two Defeat 15 Enemies
 Two men of an American patrol, while inspecting enemy trenches in the Foul sector early this morning, en- countered 15 of the enemy, and immed- lately opened fire with their rifles. They also used grenades and, after a few minutes, managed to get away safely, taking turns at covering each others retreat. They got back to the American lines without a scratch, but it is known that three Germans were killed and others were wounded.
 Two encounters are reported be- tween American reconnoitering patrols and new listening posts.

AMERICA ASKED ID
 A|D IN FIXING UP
 RUSSIAN RAILWAYS
TRepubIican A. p. Leased Wire1

MOSCOW. March 26.-The council of commissioners has issued decree making the railway commissioner ab- solute dictator of railway transporta tion throughout the country. The government has asked the United States to permit John F. Stevens, head of the American railway commission to assist in the organization.
 The new dictator will be responsible only to the council and is fully author ized to dictate the policy for the re- organization of the roads and trans portation, regardless of the plans of the local soviets and the organizations of railway employees. This is a con- centration of power over transporta- ton far greater than any official has been entrusted with since the first revolution.
 To Run Roads With Troops
 In addition to being authorized to employ troops to enforce his orders, the dictator may have all persons who hinder operations tried by military tri- bunals. In justification of such string ent action. the decree says that extra ordinary necessity exists for the end- ing of further disorganization, which would be especially serious at this critical time, when military units are moving and famine is threatened. All local and district soviet organiza- . tions are urged in the decree to CO., operate with the council of commits siOners in every way and are warned that local plans for the improvement of transportation, although commend able, may hamper the whole national plan and must make way before the rail commissioners plans, which are designed to improve the entire railway system.
 No successor has been appointed vel 1 for Railway Commissioner Elisareff who recently resigned.
