Program Centers i'm France
The President" said General
March, resuming his statement, has
finally announced that the American
military policy from this time on is
centered on the western front and
we have declined to be diverted from
that one thing. The War Department
has now adopted this as a policy and
it is the policy of the United States
that the military program is to be
centered in France.
The purpose of America is to fur
nish enough manpower to whip the
Germans from now on. The only
way that Germany can be whipped is
by Americas going into this thing
with her whole strength"
Then America has got to put
enough men over there to whip Ger
many?" asked Senator Kirby.
That is it in a nutshell" General
March replied.
Up to q. S. to Win War
''It is up to us to win the war and
we can win it, How long it will take
will depend exactly upon what we
do. If we drag along with this thing
and put a small force over there we
will be playing Germany's game. 1t
is my belief that with an American
army of 100000 men in France un-
der one commander-in chief we can
go through the German line where
ever we please"
This law, the general added. will
let us lean on Class l until June 80
of next year. We reached the con-
clusion that the enlarged program
was necessary on July 30"
Secretary Baker explained the
steps that led up to the change in the
military program.
SO-Division Program Minimum
After the recess of Congress" the
Secretary said, "the study of the
situation went on and few days ago
1t became clear, to us that the eighty
division program was perhaps the
maximum which we could possibly

hope to accomplish and that to ac-
complish that it would be necessary
to change the age limits from the
present limits to Is to As"
Secretary Baker said he asked the
surgeon general for a formal opin-
ion as to what changes he would
recommended, to which the surgeon
general suggested the ages Is to As.
The bill as it is written meets
with my entire approval" declared
Secretary Baker.
Believes Bill Essential
Asked by Senator Johnson, of Cali
fornia, if he believed the pending
bill was essential to carry out the
purposes for which the United States
entered the war, Secretary Baker
replied:
II believe that to be the fact. My
own judgment about it originally was
that 10 should be the minimum and
! came to the IS minimum only af-
ter thorough study of the situation
and with some reluctance, but finally
believing it to be necessary to secure
the appropriate number of men,"
The committees action in report
ing the bill. the report says. is based
upon the necessity of the govern
ment in this crisis and upon the
opinion of the Secretary of War,
the chief of staff and provost mar
shall general that it would be better
to extend the draft ages than to in
wade those classes which have been
deferred by law and by regulations
of the War Department"
Regarding the work or fight
amendment of Senator Reed, provid-
ing for withdrawal of deferred rlas-
sification from men absent from
work without cause, the report says:
''Worlt or Fight" Explained
1T seems to the committee that
in view of the fact we are about to
authorize the drafting of boys be-
tween the ages of IS and 81 as well
as those above 21 up to and inclusive
of As and are providing for the eX-
emption of men between Is and As
who are engaged in useful and neces-
sary occupations for actual service
in the ranks, that when any are ex-
empted solely from the cause their
services are more valuable to the
nation in the production of things
essential to the prosecution of the
war, that when they cease in good
faith to follow the essential occupa-
tton they ought to be subject to the
draft as in other cases.
Must Work Steadily
The young man not engaged in
these occupations must wear the
uniform, enter the ranks and bare
his breast TO the weapons of German
arms. He cannot refuse to work
even for an hour and he is COM
PEELED to fight whether he feels dis
rosed to do so or not. In view of
this. when young man is exempted
from the draft solely in order that
he may engage in an essential indus
try, he ought to continue in that en-
ployment in Gooth faith while any
grievance is being adjusted by the
industrial board. and If he fails to do
so he ought to he SUBJECT to draft.
IdlcrS Fall Into Draft
The provision does not pretend
to interfere with the right Of any
man to cease labor when any man
pleases to do so, but simply says to
him that If he does cease he shall.
under such regulations as the Pres
ident may prescribe, subject himself
to the draft as though he had not
been exempted in the first instance"

record and with two exceptions were
the largest ever reported in any one
month.
Figures issued by the anthracite
bureau of information to-day show

the month. against 6,S67.669 tons in
June and 6.724,252 tons in July, last
year, indicating increases of 217,106
and S6o,52S tons respectively.

siderable extent in the Lehigh region
to-day through the celebration of the
Feast of the Assumption in the Cath

Although early masses were held
for the convenience of coal miners,
many of them failed to report for
work afterward and as a consequence
a number of collieries were forced to
suspend.

About 10000 mine workers of the
