YOUNGMEN NEEDED

BAKER ANNOUNCES
Statement to House Commit
tee Taken TO Indicate Oppo-
sition to Higher Draft Age.

WASHINGTON. April 2S.-"Men Of
sction--youngcr men" are needed for
America TO win the war.
This was tho belief expressed by
Secretary OF War Baker TO members
Of the House Military Committee to-
day. Ho added that his experience
and observations while abroad con-
vinced him that the success OF tho
war depends on young rather than
old men.
His statement was regarded as in
dicating his dlsapprovnl OF increasing
the dratt ages 10 forty. forty-flvc or
fifty, as has been suggested recently.
Mr.. Baker did not 10 into details
as TO tho proposed size Of Americas
army to-day and was not questioned
as TO whether sufficient men can be
obtained under the present draft
hges. This question With many other
appropriation matters will be thrcsh-
ed out at later sessions.
A most promising picture OF the
vast preparations the United states
is making in France for tho fighting

fore the committee.

no said. III lined up would be a build
ing nifty feet wide and 200 miles long
practically the distance between
Washington and New York." Baker
said.
The artillery and aviation schools
the United states has established In
France arc absolutely tho finest in
the world. Baker declared, and have
won the admiration OF our Allies.
American artillery and aviation will
be two OF tho leading factors in win
ming the war, he predicted.
Regarding an increase In the size
OF the army the Secretary told the
committee he did not believe in pro-
vlding for an increase in it's strength
beyond the ability Of the Government
20 transport and supply It in France.
He hoped TO return to the Committee
with a recommendation on the sub
ject In a day or 10.
Members OF the Committee inferred
from his allusion to the necessity OF
confining the increase TO the actual
transport and subsistence limitations
that his recommendation would not
20 beyond the 100000 mark
Although very optimistic over the
general situation Secretary Baker
emphasized that the end OF tho war
probably will depend on the throwing
OF American resources-both mon and
gupplies--into the hghting area in
great quantities.
THe made II clear" said Reprosen-
tative Kahn, that America must de-
liver a great big punch before the
war Is over"
Members OF the committee were
plainly pleased with Bakers report.
"The keynote OF tho Secretarys
review is that there are no pessl-
nists over there" said Representa-
tive Anthony or Kansas. They are
al confident that victory will come
to the Allies, according TO Mr..
Baker"
