Kaiser Says Hardest Part Of War
Still Before Him.

The Hague, July 26.-"The hardest
part of the job is still before us. The
enemy knows the war is about to reach
the point of decision and is summon
ing all his strength for a final d.
fense and counter offensive"
This was the observation of the
German emperor recorded by Kari
Rosner in the Berlin Lokal Anzeiger
and apparently made on the eve OF
General Foch's offensive. On the sam"
occasion Field Marshal Won Hinden-
burg gave Rosner the following state
ment:
:'It is to be hoped the people at
home are full of confidence. But they
are not learned in patience. l hope
nothing is so promptly punished, as
cverhaste is no good.
preparation is half the battle and
the people must remember we are
not working with machines that can
be smashed as soon as the job is COM
pleted. We are working with the
most sacred thing we possess; namely,
the blood and life Of the German peo-
pie. Our last reserves must be
strong men who will return from the
trenches to take up peace tasks. we
must not be left at the end like smash
ed machines but must be strong and
unWeakened."

Our people at home should not rest
on the laurels of our soldiers in

BIGGER ARMY PROGRAM.
Secretary Baker Will Recommend
Change in Draft Ages When Con-
gress Reconvenes.
Washington Dispatch, july 25.

With the reconvening of Congress
late IN August, Secretary Baker ex-
poets to have ready for presentation

ed when ne recently advised the SEN
ate military committee not to attarrl
g. change in the draft age limits rrlor
to the Congress recess.
Belief is growing that the secretary
of war will make one bite of the cherry
and submit plans for an army of ap-
proximately 100000 men, together
with recommendation for change in
theA draft ages making readily avail
ablesSsn aEiay of that size
Within the past "a hours Secretary
Baker has promised his recommends
tlor concerning amendment to the
draft law would be specific How
ever, he explained, no decision has yet
been reached concerning the draft
ages.
Despite preliminary opposition man.
ifested in Congress when a change
was discussed several weeks ago, the
military advisors of Secretary Baker
are understood to favor a reduction
of the draft age minimum to 19 years.
The maximum age, according to pres
ent indications, will range somewhere
between 81 to 40. There has been
some discussion of raising the age
limit to as years, but the returns from
the group of older men and the eco
nomic disturbance which would b.
caused by exceeding the 4O-year limit
probably will initiate against the Al
year plan. Comparatively few good
fighters, it is argued, would he drawn
from the classes above 40. Secretary
Bakers formal announcement on this
particular point at least indicates his
intention to be specific. The secre-
tary says:
'EWhen Congress reconvenes l shall
present plan which will involve in
creased appropriations, notifications
Of the draft age, and somewhat larger
mobilization Of our military forces.
The question as to the draft age limits
is being studied to determine how we
can get the necessary number of men
with the least interference with the
industry of the country. l will recon-
mend definite age limits"
