NEARLY 100000 Drafted.
President Has Created Army Of Al
most a Million Instead of 100000
in First Call.

Washington, April 16-Nearly 90o,,
coo men have been called to arms
under the selectiye service act, with
the prospect of the number passing
the million mark within three days
And this has taken place without the
formation of what is commonly known
as the "second increment" of the Ma
tional Army.
In order words it has been possible
for the President TO create an army
of almost million men under the
first call of men, call which pro
vided for the raising of 100000. The
same law gave authority to the Presi-
dent to raise a second increment Of ar
equal number of men without further
legislation by Congress, an increment
which has not even been approached
SO far by the War Department.
The successive calls for men for the
first army shows again the elasticity
of the sclectivc draft law. 1t is posi-
bic, authorities now agree, for the
President to raise almost any reason
able number of men without further
resort to Congress. He is not only
empowered TO call out 100000 regis
trants for ea:h of the two increments,
but he may continue to call them to
fill all gaps in existing organizations
This includes the National Guard and
the Regular Army.
More than that, he may call men t.
fill gaps and replace waste before the
gaps or the wastage take place. He
may simply anticipa loss Of 50

1t. the President issued call for
,67, 900 instead OF 100000 men. This
great body of registrants did not an
swer the call all at once, Of course.
They were ordered to report in levies,
the last block of them-95, 900 in all
was directed to report fer training
only few weeks ago.
Within the past thirty days 100000
men were called to arms.
This did not mark the beginning OF
the new army. 1t was merely the eE-
of the original army, and
brought the total men for that force
Up to $4,000. It was generally as
sumed that this would be the maxi
mum strength of the first increment
Of the National Army and that the
War Department would turn its at
tention at once to the formation Of the
new divisions.

BURLESON SCORES DISCOURTESY OF
 WIRE SYSTEMS

Letters of complaint have been re- celved by the Post Office Department stating that patrons of the telegraph and telephone service are not always accorded courteous treatment by the employees, and that when complaint is made the employees frequently state that the delay or other trouble is due to instructions issued by the Post Off, fee Department, when such is not the case.
 According to instructions received from Postmaster General Burleson "The telegraph and telephone systems are operated for the benefit of the public, and the first duty is co-opera- ton. Those who come in contact with the public must at all times be cour- teous and obliging. Indifference OF nonconcern in the relation with the service rendered will not be tolerated and must give way to a spirit of inter- est rather than that of indifference in the performance of duty. Close at- tention to duty and courteous treat ment involve no hardship and cost nothing, but mean much to the pub lie. In the governmental operation to duty of the telegraph and telephone systems the cooperation of all super visory officers and employees is earn estly desired. Those in charge will be held strictly accountable for the service, also for the conduct of the employees under the-r supervision to- ward the public"

KELLOGG
 ADVISES LEAGUE
 TO COMPEL PEACE
Continued From Page one.)

Turning to concrete plans for league of nations Senator Kellogg said that unless Germany evolves a government responsive to popular will and with a people having ideals and aspirations different from those of the past regime. there must be league of nations to see that Germany is rendered powerless to renew the con test" Another important step, Sem ator Kellogg said, is abolition of the system of secret treaties and alli- ances. The new treaties. he said, should be made in the open"
 The Minnesota senator said he was opposed to a league established as a world super-government with legisla- lures and judicial tribunals. No league, he asserted. should have pow CT to 1nsorfere with foreign trade, tar if duties, commerce regulations, de- velopment or disposition of national resources or other internal affairs.
 Senator Kellogg said he believed general sentiment favors a league by treaty, providing not only for media ton, but binding signatory powers to offer demiation to contending nations, and establishing commissions for tn- vesttgatton.

P Preparations For Big
 British Day Meeting

Rehearsal of the Liberty Chorus that Is to sing at the British day meeting at the armory at o'clock Saturday night, indicates that the mu- sicaI portion of the program will be fully as interesting and entertaining as the speeches by Scout Joe Cassels of the Black Watch regiment and Bainbridge Colby, lawyer and mem Der of the United States Shipping board.
 It is expected that there will be sol- diers of three wars on the platform, veterans of the Civil war, of the Span ish American war and men just re- turned from overseas duty in the war of civilization. These will be in ad- dition to the heads of the various lodges and societies that have been in- vited. The Liberty chorus, under the direction of Prof. Alvin s. Bruel and Mrs. F. B. Grannis, will sing and it is expected that community singing, which has become a part of all war rallies in this city, will be enjoyed by the audience. The Wheeler & Wilson band will furnish the music.
 Bridgeport's tribute to the part 1 played by Great Britain in the war will be notable in many ways.

FOREIGN PAPERS
 WELCOME WILSON TO PEACE TABLE
Presidents Address to Con- gress Cordially Com
 mented Upon.
WILL FIND ENTENTE
 WHOLLY IN ACCORD
All Print at Length Prin- cipal Passages of Annual
 Message.

London, Dec. 4-President Wilson's address to the American Congress was extensively commented upon by this mornings newspapers which reiterate sentiments of hearty satisfaction that he is to attend the peace conference. They declare the President will find the Entente statesmen thoroughly in concurrence with his idealism and devotion to international justice.
 There is manifest a strain of anxiety in the editorials with regard to recon cling the Presidents principles as embodied in his l 1 points with the as- pirations of the Allies.
 The Morning Post, while paying tri- bute in the warmest terms to the President and to American co-opera- ton in the war, insists upon the inn portance of the exact relation of the IA points to the peace settlement be- | ing understood. It thinks the points were accepted too hastily by the AL lied governments. It relies, however, upon the Presidents definition of them as an outline of the basis of 1 peace and regards them as "a service 1 able instrument with which to begin the work of securing peace" every thing depending upon their interpre- tation and application.
 The Daily News asks anxtous1y for 1 evidences of the acceptance of the spirit of the 14 points, the letter of which was accepted, with one eXCNp- i ton, by the Allies, and deplores "the ominous absence of any considered or worthy reference to the supreme issue | before the world.'
 In the coalition governments appeal 1 to the electorate of Great Britain. It accuses Lloyd-George of appealing to the mob instinct, talks of underground machinations to establish conscription 1 in Great Britain and then asks if the l omens are better in France and Italy.
 ''In all the world" 1t inquiries, "who are the statesmen who are backing not the letter but the spirit of Presi- dent Wilson's policy? "The situation is full of menace. If it Is to be re- deemed it must be by the peoples ot 1 every country"
 Paris, Dec. - The Paris news papers print the principal passages o1 President Wilson's message to Con- gress, and special writers comment favorably
 Julien Sore1, writing in the Oul says:
 "If President Wilson's speech brings us no new information on interna. tionaI policy, it gives us suggestion. which may serve the Allied govern. ments in approaching the difficult questions of deYnobilizat ton which none had foreseen.''
 Rene Daral, In the Gaulois, referl to that part of the message dealing with the Presidents visit to Europe and says:
