NEW DRAFT LAW CALLS ALL MEN 18 TO
45 YEARS OLD FOR WAR REGISTRATION
Thomas Reed Anti Strike
ference Committee Denver Will Furnish $4,000 Men
Under the Law Who Are o Register Date
Fixed for Early in September

After the conference committee of
the Senate and House had struck the
Thomas Reed amendment from the
new draft law, the measure was
passed by both branches of Congress
this week and signed by President
Wilson. 1t is the most memorable
man-power law ever enacted by any
nation.
The Thomas Reed m n m t
passed by the Senate sought to penal
ize workingmen who were forced to
strike to obtain awards made by the
national war labor board.
The law extends the draft ages to
include all male citizens 1S to 45
years. II is expected to add 1S,00O,-
900 men to the military strength Of
the nation, and make sure the defeat
Of Germany next year.
Men between 1S and 45 who regis
ter under the bill will be required to
furnish personal information much
more varied and extensive than has
been secured from regissrants Of mill
tary ages in previous enrollments.

BONE DRY" BILL
PASSES SENATE
cry LIT L E OPPOSI-
TION TO MEASURE.
Provides for Nation Wide Prohibition
on or Before July !. 1919, and
Stops Manufacture of Beer
or Wine After May /.

The nationwide prohibition meas
Thursday afternoon and will be con-
Cured in by the House Immediately.
The chief provisions of the amend
ment are:
Prohibition of the sale of any kind
of alcoholic beverage after June 80,
1919.
Prohibition of the manufacture of
beer and wine after May l, 1919.
Authority to the President to pre-
scribe prohibition zones around mu-
milton plants and coal mines imme-
diately.
The amendment will continue in eff
feet until the rehabilitation iof the
army, by which time the "drys" ex-
pect the Sheppard constitutional
amendment will have been ratified by
three-fourths of the states.
The amendment was adopted by the
Senate without a roll call. By a pre-
arranged gentleman's agreement no
one demanded a record vote. Some
senators were a bit timid about the
possible effect of their votes on their
political futures with the fall cam
Grafton for their feelings there was a
tacit understanding to settle the ques-
tion by a viva voce vote.
The proceedings leading up to the
adoption of the amendment were as
devoid of interest as the considera-
ton of a routine appropriation bill
The prohibition question has beer
threshed over so much in Congress
during the last few years that most
senators regarded further talk a
waste of time.

for can be depended upon to give labor
square deal, for square deal is
all that labor ever asks for.
