REJECT THE RUSSIAN TERMS
Statement From Berlin Says Central
Powers Can't Consider Peace
ldeas-Other Proposals.

Berlin, Jan. 1S.-An official state
ment issued here today giving the re-
ply by the Central Powers to the Rus
sian proposals at Brest-LitoYsk on
Monday, says the Russian proposals
concerning the regions occupied by the
Central Powers diverge to such a de-
gree from the views Of the Central
Powers that in their present form
they are unacceptable.
The official statement says the Rus
sian proposals do not consider the op-
posite parties on just basis. Never
theless, it adds, the Central Powers
again are preparing TO give a clearly
formulated expression of their opin-
ions and to try to find a basis for z
compromise.
For the Central Powers, as distinct
from the case with Russia, the an
nouncement adds, a conclusion OF
peace with Russia has no connection
with a general peace and the Central
Powers are compelled to continue the
war against their other enemies.

Some of the men who Joined in the

NEW DRAFT BILL IN SENATE
War Department Measure Lists Men
Who Have Attained Age Since
the First Registration.

Washington, JAM 16.-At the re-
quest of the War Department today
Chairman Chamberlain of the Senate
military committees introduced a bill
for the registration for military duty
Of all men who have become 81 years
old since June 5, 1917, when the Draft
Law went into effect.
In determining upon the registration
of men who have become 81 since the
Draft Law was enacted the War De
partment has rejected any plan to
raise the age limits of the draft to
take in men more than 81.
Another bill would put the quota of
the states on the basis of available
men in the first class instead of on
population.
Arrangements have been made by
the War Department to fill from the
second draft some time this spring
the extensive vacancies in the coast
artillery caused by the organization
Of provisional regiments of mobile
heavy artillery for service in France.
A limited number of men who have
particular aptitude for the special
work of the corps were obtained from
the first draft, but there is still de-
ficiency of several thousand Unless
some unforeseen emergency develops,
organization of regiments for foreign
service in the corps will not be car
ried any further than to complete the
units now in progress of development.
Another bill which Senator Cham
berlain introduced at the request of
the administration would provide for
furIoughing national army men for
harvesting crops and other agricul
tural duty.
Registration Of men who have be-
come of age since the Draft Law was
enacted was referred in the recent re-
port OF Provost Marshal General
Crowder, one Of the means by which
a supply of men for the national army
might be assured without taking
those who might have others depend
ent upon them.
1t could be done, also, the provost
marshal general pointed out, by ex-
tending the age limits above the pres
emit line Of 81. The War Department
had adopted the first suggestion 1t
is estimated that it will add about
100000 men to the draft availables
each year.

Federal Fuel Administrator Has
UnequivOcaI Support in a
White House Statement.
MANDATE GENERALLY OBSERVED
to Prevent Closing of Many
War Plants.

Washington, Jan. 19. President
Wilson gave uneQuivocal support to
the Fuel Administrations closing or
der in statement issued at the
White House tonight. The President
says he was fully consulted before
the order was decided upon and
agreed with DR.. Harry a Garfield,
fuel administrator, that it was neces-
sary. The Presidents statement, it
is believed, will have the effect of
tanning the opposition in Congress,
which was aroused by the order as
by nothing else since the war began
Industries are Suspended.
The manufacturing industry in the
twenty-eight states affected by the
order was almost wholly suspended
today, despite the fact that a large
list of exemptions was annou- ICED.
Most of the plants engaged on war
contracts were exempted from the or
der's operation in kilograms sent out
last night, but few of them learned
Of it in time and a majority were
closed down with other factories.
The country at large knew nothing
OF exemptions except the few an
nounced last night and it was not I'M
til late this afternoon that the fuel
administrator admitted officially that
important war work was not affected
by the order and gave out a list of
hundreds of factories that may con-
tinue work on government contracts
only in the five days closing period.
Confusion attending enforcement
of the order was general. Such a
flood of kilograms poured into the
offices of the Fuel Administration
asking interpretations and rulings and
requesting information concerning ex-.
empted industries that finally the ex-
emption list was given to the press
for publication. The day brought a
vigorous defense by Fuel Administra
tor Garfield of the step and the gov
ernment's purpose in taking it.
Garfield Answers Senate.
Opposition to the order in Congress
apparently spent itself in debate in
both houses. Doctor Garfield replied
to the Senate's request of yesterday
that the order be suspended for five
days, disclaiming any purpose to be
discourteous, declining to comply and
pointing out the necessity for enforce
ment of his order.
