where the time supposed to be neces-
sary to fit a soldier for the light du-
ties at first expected of him has
been reduced.
Crowder told the committee It would
be a mistake to pass legislation now
pending which would restrict the
method by which men can be taken
under the draft. He said 1t was nee
essary for the department to take into
consideration, in calling men, many
industrial and social factors which
are constantly changing. For in
stance, once harvesting is finished, the
farm States will be called on to bear
much heavier share Of the quotas
than they have given so far.
1t Is unlikely that draft ages will
be changed at once, although the pro-
posal of making eligible all men from
p to 10 will be kept alive. Crowder
pointed out that Class 2, which fol-
lows 100000 men or more in Class
after the coming increment of
boys of 21 is added-is made up of
skilled mechanics, farmers, etc.
without dependents.

the increase.
Discuss Details:
The details of the estimates pro-
posed for the regular appropriations
for 191S-19 will be gone into with
the committee beginning this
morning at 10 o'clock. These esti-
! mates when approved by the COM
mittee and acted upon by Congress
will Of course be supplemented by
subsequent appropriations. As ad-
ditional facilities for equipment and
! transportation become apparent
I'VE discussed the size of the army
in a large way"
Referring to the proposal to give
, States in the next few draft quotas
credit for the number of volunteers
they have yielded Secretary Baker
said:
I'VE take the position that we
desired to have subsequent draft
quotas based on the number of men
in Glass I without reference to
credits"
When Secretary Baker begins his
hearings with the committee today it
is understood he will present his
formal estimates in detail The op-
position now headed by Chairman
Dent is expected to submit questions
which bear upon the necessity of
the various items.
1t developed that when the first
estimates were submitted by the War
Department for appropriations the
amounts named aggregated $3.50, ,223,-
299. At later date supplemental
estimates brought the total I'D to
about 1880. 100000. Secretary Baker
now estimated the last total must be
doubled. In this way the estimate
Of S15.ooo,ooo.o 900 is reached.
The sum requested by Secretary
Baker Is more than the total cost
OF the war to the United States for
the year ending June 3, 1918.
This amount took UP the entire pro-
ductive war capacity Of the country.
which. however, has been tremen-
dously increased with the erection of
hundreds of huge new factories.
the committee appeared to be
greatly interested in testimony show
ing that less time is to be absorbed
in training camps.
Draft Changes.
Gen March said that It was no
longer necessary for a soldier.
especially soldier as intelligent as
the average American, to be trained
year, or even six months. He de-
clared that after they were hardened
the tricks Of the trade could be taught
them very quickly. and that IT would
be an actual advantage for them to
receive much Of this abroad where
the latest practices become known
much quicker than is possible in
America
March told the English experience.

ASKS SUPPORT FOR
zionist MOVEMENT
Assistant to Secretary of War Ap
peals for Jewish Cooperation.

Felix Frankfurte. assistant TO
Secretary of War Baker. who has
just returned from the war front,
addressed an audience OF over 500
prominent Hebrews in the vestry of
the Eighth Street Temple last night
under the auspices of the Washing
ton Zionist Circle.
Prof. Frankfurter declared in the
course of his remarks that Zionism
was as much OF an issue with the
, Foreign once. Prime Minister, and
gentle press of England as the war
itself.
According to the speaker, the po-
:itical future of Palestine rests ulti-
mately with the preparedness of the
Jews to go into their own inheri-
tance. He appealed to all the
| thinking Jews of this country to
regard the movement as an inter-
national step towards re-establish-
ing the ancient grandeur and the
ancient self-respect of the Jewish
people.
Prof. Frankfurter stated that in
the course of his travels abroad
and in this country. he found that
Zionism was sweeping along with
an irresistible force, embracing in
its fold the leading statesmen and
| representative Jewish men and
women OF the world.
Many prominent Jewish officials
in the government service and do
ing special war work in the city
were present at the meeting las,
night.

SERBS, CROATS, CZECHS
DESERT ENEMY ARMY
Many. Considering Austria Oppres.
sor. Join Italy's Force.

Serbs. Croats and slavs. as we'll as
Czechs. are deserting the Austrian
army in large numbers to join the
Italian forces. according to informa-
ton received here yesterday. Nearly
all OF the prisoners OF war Of these
nationalities have asked to be admit
ted to the Italian army to night Aus-
tria, whom they consider their op-
pressor.
Recent exchanges between Italy and
the Jugo-Slavs are reported to have
cleared up any misunderstandings the
latter might have had as to the Treaty
Of London. They are now believed to
be convinced that their interests lie
with Italy.
The food situation in Italy IL report
ed as continuing to be acute, and
aviators have reported a continuing
concentration OF Austrian forces on
the western end of the battle line
about Lake Garda- II Is again pre-
dicted that the offensive will be
launched as soon as the weather per-
mits.
In the face OF these difficulties the
Italian workmen universally aban-
doned their May day celebration. So
cialists and labor men, both in France
and Italy. are reported as thoroughly
convinced that the German menace
demands their utmost efforts.

UP news SERVICE CASE
Contest Between Associated Press
and |. N. S. Before High Tribunal.

Argument in the case Of the As
sociated Press against the Interna-
tional News Service began yesterday
afternoon in the United States
Supreme Court, and questions Of great
Importance to press and public were
thus brought to the issue.
1t was asked by attorneys:
Is news that has been published
public property. and may it be copied?
Or can the Associated Press through
its peculiar form of cooperative or
ganization preserve the property right
until all of its members have used
the news?
Counsel for the International News
Service hold that IL such rules is
sustained there will be "foisted upon
the community the most despotic and
dangerous monopoly known to man
kind"
Samuel Untermeyer opened the case
for the International News Service.
Associated with him were Senator
Hiram johnson, of California, and
William A. De Ford. Senator john
son will speak today. Frederick W.

home and tell the story of Americas
part In the great war. were the star
attractions at a great liberty loan rally
held last night by employees of the
Chaptn-Sacks Manufacturing Company
at which $4,000 was pledged.
Sergeant Hefferman vividly ex-
planned the need Of scientific gas
masks. exhibiting during his talk
masks used at the front for both men
and horses. The sergeant urged the
necessity Of greater interest and ac-
tivity in the war by people in the
United States.
Private Mowrer stirred his audience
by his description of the fine morale
Of Americas fighting men abroad. He
said he wanted to give a good report
to Gen. Pershing OF the condition OF
American troops here in this regard.
|. I'VE are not a damn bit afraid
of the Germans" said Private
Mowrer last night. I'VE can whip
them. All we need is for the folks
at home to back us up"
The meeting was opened with q
brief speech by former Senator Ma
than B. Scott. of West Virginia,
who said that his prosperity in life
was the result Of wise investment
of his savings as a civil war SOL
dier.
The Chapin-Sacks Company ac-
CELEBRATED the loan rally last night
by their offer to carry or take over
any bonds sold at the meeting II
the buyer found himself prevented
from meeting the payments. In ad-
dition to this. the firm offered to
start payments for any employe

Capital Has Candidate
For Medal from Kaiser
Another German atrocity,


Was II a German sympathizer
or German agents who. after
failing to discourage the sale Of
liberty bonds through German
propaganda, tried to mar the
features of our own Uncle Sam
uel, who directs liberty bond
buyers with his finger to the
Federal National Bank, at Four
teenth and G streets northwest,
by breaking off his left arm?
Such is the case. for yester-
day the giant image of Uncle
Sam lost an arm and the traf-
fic officer or officials At the
bank were unable to tell who
was the guilty party.
From his position on the curb
it Is assured that he did not fig-
ure in a car accident, so IL must
have been German, agent.
Nevertheless, Uncle Sam still
points the way to the sale of
liberty bonds and liberty. and
the missing arm mattered little.

MANY CHANGES
ARE MADE IN
TRAFFICRULES
Commissioners Revise Reg.
ulations to Relieve Con-
gested District.

One Of the most drastic changes In
the amendments to the Districts
traffic regulations which were adopt
ed by the Commissioners yesterday,
prohibits all vehicles operated in the
District Of Columbia, after this month.
from standing on any street between
the street car loading platform and
curb. except when cars are taking on
or letting off passengers.
This amendment was adopted to
make II possible for the police and
the public to work In harmony to nm
prove traffic conditions in the busi-
ness section Of the city.
Special Crossing Rules.
Many of the amendments were pro-
posed by Major Pullman. superintend-
ent OF police.
The abolition of the left-hand turn
at the intersection Of Fifteenth and
New York avenue, Is another change
adopted to relieve the congestion
caused by so many vehicles passing
through the intersection OF Fifteenth
and New York and Pennsylvania
avenues. The new change also pro-
hibits the driving of vehicles across
the car tracks at that crossing in any
direction.
The use Of this intersection be-
comes restricted to the right hand
turn and the possibility of a col
liston between street cars and We
hicles Is done away with entirely.
This regulation will not apply after
10 o'clock at night. and the night
theater traffic will be able to pro-
cad AfraCflv Efffaan
street or west on Pennsylvania
avenue.
At the intersection OF Fourteenth
and New York avenue the left hand
turn has been done away with but
vehicles may cross The street car
tracks. These two ..ctions of the
regulations will p maps relieve
Fifteenth street of ;I:rty or thirty
fve per cent vehicle traffic, and
will restrict the use of this con-
gested street to those who have
business thereon
Parking Regulations.
The changes in the parking reg
ulations and increasing the time for
parking on business streets from
fifteen minutes to thirty minutes
will make possible easier and strict
enforcement of the regulations by
the police. The creation OF the two
hour period for parking at certain
points is to accommodate persons
who desire space for their cars
when doing important business
which lasts more than thirty min
utes. A large number of all day
parking spaces have been provided
SO that persons who use their cars
only for coming to and going from
work may be Accommodated.
