SENATE BANS RELEASE
OF DRAFTEES OVER 81
May Have to Raise Limit to
45 Years. Says Senator
Chamberlain
Washington, March %.


The news that the Germans had broken
through Britain's defenses on the west
front reused the Senate today to demand
for more vigorous prosecution Of Amer
ica's part in the war.
Resuming it's cleanup of War De-
partment bills the Senate took UP the
resolution for registration of all men
who have become twenty-one since the
5th OF last June
Senator Hardwicll, Georgia, con-
sistent opponent of the draft. sought to
amend il to exempt all men who have
reached the age Of thirty-one since June
). His own vote was the only one in
favor of this proposal.
Hardwick said If Congress doesn't
want TO exempt men as they reach the
age of thirty-one 1t should raise the
age limit
,"we'n undoubtedly have to raise II
reports we now hear are borne out, y
said Senator Chamberlain. but this is
not the time to do II. We may even-
tually need to take men beyond the age
of thirty-one and we may have to go up
to forty-fve If the war lasts. But the
thing to do now is to make available all
the men we can by adding those who
reach twenty-one."
We ought to prepare as rapidly as
possible to double our army" said Sena-
tor Hoke Smith. Undoubtedly before
we finish we will have TO take in Older
men. We ought to double our ordnance
supply. our powder supply-doublt
everything-and then get behind it will
real punch
The resolution. however, was LAID
aside and number of minor bills
passed, including providing commutatior
of quarters to officers In field service.
This gives them the same paymen
for quarters as has been made to mel
on duty in this country.
