London, June 25.-As a striking H.
lustration Of the extent to which the
iron hand Is being used in Germany
to crush nationwide discomfort, the
Express cites the fact that there
are 10000 political prisoners in the

Much dissatisfaction has been caus-

the fact that the Kaiser's lthirtieth

was not marked by an amnesty de-

The Munich Post, IN a remarkably
frank article, goes so far as to sug-
gest that wilhelm, the Talker, Is
very different from Wilhelm the

DRAFT YEARS
UP FOR VOTE
ARE 20 TO 40
S=nate Hears Baker Favors
Separating Question from
Army Bill. ~

Reports that Secretary Of War Ba-
ker. speaking for the administration
opposed q change in the draft age
limits as a rider to the army appro-
priation bill were circulated about
the Capitol yesterday afternoon dur
ing q spirited debate in the Senate
on the Fall amendment to the army
bill.
IL was stated on the authority OF
members of the House close in the
confidence Of the War Department
that Mr.. Baker was inclined to the
belief that the draft age question
should be handled as a separate prop
osition and on its merits.
A vote on the Fall amendment,
almost reached by the Senate yes
terday afternoon, seems assured for
today. As revised by Senator Fall
himself, on advice OF Senator Cham
berlain. the amendment changes the
age limits to 20 and 40. Originally
it fixed them at IS and IS. Senator
Chamberlain expressed the opinion
that the House would never stand
for lowering of the limits to IS.
Upward Extension Favored.
What effect the reported attitude
of Secretary Baker will have will
not be known until today. when the
vote Is taken. On the eve of the
count, a majority Of the Senate IA
vors an extension upwards from the
age Of 81, but many oppose lowering
the limit below q. 1t is in the
House. rather than the Senate, how
ever. that the Baker proposition is
apt to be most strongly felt.
Senators Chamberlain, wadsworth
Of New York and Reed Of Missouri,
in a brilliant series Of speeches,
strongly urged a widening Of the
limits.
TT Is better from my viewpoint, ,"
said Chamberlain, Ito step over the
line Of 90 and take the man who
loafs about the poolroom and the bar
and has no dependents, rather than
to go beyond Class / into the ranks
Of the men who have families, as We
soon must do.
Glass I Soon Exhausted.

or ninety days" said Reed, I'VE win

ing all abroad and at home. We will
be without more troops or q law
whereby to raise them. I am un-
willing to see the creation Of our

Discussion of the Fall amendment
began as soon as consideration of the
army bill was resumed. Senator Mel

r. c. Gray, H. Boyts and VIM. Guy,
county agents Of their respective
counties, will be in camp to look aft
er the boys from their counties and
to give lectures and demonstrations
to those in attendance. The North

here at that time for work among
the boys. Animal husbandry. veterin-
ary. destruction Of rodents and farm
crops will be given ample considera-
ton. The recreation side Of the en-
campment will be in charge of a good
man who will see that swimming,
baseball, and other manly sports will
find its place in the routine.
Tents on the grounds will take care
of the boys while they are in camp,
and that 1t will be a success is indi-
Gated by the fact that already word
has been received from $50 boys that
