next week. Members Of the two
military committees have been re-
called to Washington by the chair
men in order to expedite the bill.
In announcing, following a con-
ference with Chairman Dent, Of the
house committee, that his increased
army project was virtually ready,
Secretary Baker would not say what
age limits had been settled upon nor
indicate in any way the size of the
army which he is planning.
Il do not want to say what the
ages will be-" he said, because the
concurrent action Of the two houses
is ne cessary to secure assent to them,

morning and went over with him the
full plan involving the suggested ages.

ator Chamberlain as soon as he gets

Amy suggestion to extend the
draft ages is to produce in Class !
a inadequate number of men for the
enlarged military program. If the
ages are revised they vii lhave to be
either below Fl or above 81. / think

Chairman Dent was even more reti-

British Give
Huge Army

WASHINGTON, Aug, 2.-Lord
Curzon, member of the British war
cabinet, gave figures on Monday night
in a speech, portions of which have
been received here by wireless, that
show the extent of the British war
effort in man power. Lord Curzon
said Great Britain had given no fewer
than seven million men and that five
million Britons we're today fighting
in foreign theatres of war. Allowing
for casualties and presuming these
figures to include the navy they are
taken as demonstrating the fact that
the only troops in England today
are men on leave and men in depots,
either of the supply services or under
going the reorganization of units.

MORE EVIDENCE OR
 GERMAN DUPLICITY
 TO SECURE PEACE

NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.-In a Par is copyright cable a New York tri- bune correspondent tells how Ger many, in 1914, tried to influence Take Jonescu, of Rumanian cabi- net, to secure for them separate peace with France. A German pro lessor, Shave, long a resident of Rumania, being in Berlin at the outbreak of war, started sending daily telegrams of several hundred words each to Jonescu, giving him news on progress of event and lay ing stress on certainty of German victory. Jonescu said: 'In Sep tember, 1914, after fall of Ant werp and battle of the Marne. Shlawe came from Berlin to see me at Sinania. He asserted that he came on behalf of Zimmerman to ask me to fulfil the finest role 8 man could wish. Knowing that l was unshakably opposed to Ger many he offered me the opportunity to serve both France and Rumania hv going to Paris and offering the French government separate peace in which Germany would ask of France absolutely nothing. Gerhany would then be able to overcome England, which was her sole object. As to France, Shlawe added that Germany was animated with nothing but feelings of ad
 miration and friendship. I told him France was incapable of be- traying her allies, and that l was neither such anf imbecile or scoun- drel as to accept such mission"

 Commencing on July 1, 1918, the rate per paid patient is $95 per month This rate, however, was based upon conditions as of July 1, 1917 and is not an adequate compen- sation on which to furnish the best of care and subsistence and to defray the heavy overhead expenses.

 Report.
THE ALASKA INSANE
Thinks Relief Should Be Afforded in Order That Patients Get Bet
 ter Care.

WASHINGTON, Dec 30. - Addi tional subjects covered in the report of Gov Thos. Riggs Jr., to Con gross, are as follows:
 Patriotic Endeavor
 Alaskans may be well proud of the showing made in the drives for the various Liberty Loans, warsaw ings stamps, and the American Red Cross. Little can be ascertained as to the amount subscribed to the First Liberty Loan, although it is known that considerable an.Ount was taken, Fairbanks subscribing over $S0,000 and Juneau over $26,- 900 In the Second Loan $1,059,100 was subscribed, and in the Third Loan, with a quota of $687,828, sub scriptions of $1,743,050 were entered, or practically 253 per cent of the quota, thus leading all the States and Territories in proportion to the allot ment except Delaware, with it's large war industries. On June 30 Alaska led all the States and Territories in the per capita purchase of War Say ngs stamps. Alaskans pin their faith to the great American Red Cross, although all worthy charities have received liberal subscriptions. In the membership drive in Decem Der, 1917, memberships were taken to the extent of 94 per cent. of the white population. In the second war fund campaign, in May, 1918, with 18.090 subscribers, the sum of $147,- 398.64 was raised, with a number of dista2t places still to be heard from. thus again leading all the States and Territories in per capita subscriptions.
 For the sale of the wool from the White House sheep donoted by Presi- dent Wilson. Alaska returned $5,- 881.7O for IA pounds, once more leading the States and Territories the nearest competitor being Ne braska with $5,000, and Porto Rico, with $4000. If in proportion to popu- latiOn the United States should have as many men in military service as has the Territory, there would now be an army of approximately 10000, 900 men.
 Incorporated Towns
 There are r incorporated towns listed as such with the Secretary of the Territory. Reports received from 13 of these towns show total as- sessed valuation of s14,777,646. The rate of taxation on assessed valua- tion for these towns ranged from Il to per cent, the average being IT per cent.
 Governors Office
 The Governor draws attention to the building now used as an office. which he condemns as unsafe for oc- cupaney and which will have to be abandoned before severe weather sets in. More clerical assistance is needed and higher pay asked for the Secretary of the Governor.
 Aiaska's Insane
 Under contract with the Secretary of the Interior, the legally adjudged insane of Alaska are cared for at the Morningside Hospital near Portland. Oregon. the contractor for the last 14h years being the Sanitarium Co. In all, TAB persons have been admit 1 ted to the. hospital.
