Especial Dispatch to The Tribune)
WASHINGTON, June 12.-The Ship

gon, declared in the House Of Repre-
sentatives to-day, by distributing to
workers in shipyards flags precisely
like those indicating that membors of
the family are i'm the army and navy,

windows, indicating that member or
members of the family are serving the
government" Mr.. Macarthur said.

not entitled to wear a badge that in any

taken for the service badge or flag

Germanic Museum
May Be War Memorial

CAMBRIDGE. Mass, June 1.-THE
s2,ooo,ooo Germanic Museum at Har-
ward will be put to new and more pa
triotic use than the circulating of
"kultur" if "The Harvard Illustrated'
has its way. The college magazine
editorially advocates the museum, par
TALLY supported by an income from q
$4,000 gift from the Kaiser, be turned
into temporary Harvard War Memo
rial, where trophies, the memorial
honor roll and album could be main
tained.
In presenting it's argument for off,
cial adoption by the authorities, "The
Illustrated" says:
country before the war large collec-
tion of German art. 1t took the form
of literature, painting, antiques and
music, At Harvard a fine collection
had been made which outgrew its quar-
ters and necessitated the building of a
new museum. War with Germany is
not war on German art. We can still
afford to study and enjoy German
music and literature. Attempts to
abolish training in the German Ian
guape in our educational schools are
steps in the wrong direction. The use
of building now empty, however, for
university war collection is a step
worthy of consideration.
"The Germanic Museum now fulfils
no purpose. We therefore suggest il
be converted into war museum and
that university war collection be con-
tinued on some lines and begun on
others. Our war letters, our honor
rolls and portraits of fallen heroes can
here be consecrated in a new Harvard
hall of glory"

German-Americans
Pass Resolutions
Attacking Kaiser

Gernan-Americans who met at
Liedcrkranz Hall, 11S East Fifty-eighth
Street, last night, adopted resolutions
condemning the German government,
the Kaiser and the Prussian military
autocracy. In addition, they also
pledged their support to the Mayors
Committee on National Defence, and
took initial steps to insure the partici-
patton of loyal German Americans in
the independence Day loyalty parade.
The spirit of the meeting was set
forth at the very beginning by William
Forster, the chairman, who said that
those present wished most Of all to win
and retain the good will of their fell
low~citizens by making their loyalty to
the United States most manifest. The
resolution containing the condemnation
of all things Prussian, as now expressed
duced by Franz Sigel, president of the
Friends of German Democracy.
Mr.: Sigel, in discussing his resolu-
tion before it was put to vote, took
issue with Mrs. Oliver Cromwell Field,
president of the American Relief Le-
gion, who he said had expressed indig-
nation at the proposed participation
OIL Nerman-AmerlcAnS IN the loyalty
parade. He declared that not only had
United States Marshal Mccarthy as
sured him German Americans who de-
sired to thus express their loyalty
would be welcome and would receive
protection, should there be an attempt
at demonstration against them, but
that government officials in Washing
ton had.cxpressed the hope that loyal
German Americans would turn out in
largo numbers as an object lesson to
others of their nationality whose 10y
atty Is still open to question.
Before the meeting adjourned, the
Rev. DR.. Julius Jaeger, who protested
at the meeting of the organization held
on Thursday of last week against ex-
pressing contemplation of the Kaiser,
asked the privilege of making an ex-
planation of his action at that time.
He declared he was an American first.

drafted British-American draft treaty
signed June by Secretary Lansing
and the British Ambassador, was re-

cial meeting of the Foreign Relations
Committee was called for tomorrow to
consider it,
All suggestions Of committee mem
bers for changes in the original treaty
Chairman Hitchcock said, have been
met in the redraft The principal
change is that the draft shall not be
applied to citizens Of the respective
countries who are exempt from the
draft in their own countries.
Tha treaty provides that Americans
in British territory between twenty one

limits shall be subject to draft and
that British citizens subject to draft
(including Canadians) )-between eigh-
teen and forty-hve, the British draft

Policy To Be Liberal
Expenditures Triple Those
Made for Same Purposes
Annually by Roads

WASHINGTON. Juno 12.-In an
rouncing to-day classified Items of
the S946,293,000 railway capital ex-
penditure budgets for this year, the
Railroad Administration discloses that
It will pursue liberal policy in the
construction Of new switch tracks. in
, pdustrial sidings. shop buildings and
freight stations at terminals. but will
cut expenditure for new passenger
depots, Office buildings and other en-
terprises not contributing Immediately
to war demands.
Railroads will spend S98,661 900 for
additional yard tracks. sidngs and in
dustry tracks; $61,979,00O for shop
buildings, engine houses and appurten-
ances; $47,471, 900 for additional main
tracks; $3S,03500O for bridges. trestles
and culverts, and $31,556.O00 for-rails
and other track materials.
The total to be spent for improve
ments is S445,639,0 900 and for equip
ment $482,417,000. This is approxi-
mately three times as much as rail-
roads have spent for these purposes
annually heretofore.
Equipment Expenditures
Equipment expenditures are now an
nounced as follows:
Freight cars, s2oe,s94,0o; locomo-
tives, s199,075,O 900; passenger cars,
$28,340,000; improvements to existing

The greatest part of the expenditures
will be for lines east of the Mississippi
and north of the Ohio, in the district
where freight congestion has been

Director General McAdoo to-day re-
quested Congress to extend the time
within which short line railroads may
be taken over by the government, to
January 1, 1919. The law now fixes
the time as July 1, next. A resolution
embodying the request was prepared
by Senator Smith, of South Carolina.
chairman of the Interstate Commerce
Committee.
Compensation Not Decided
John Barton Payne, attorney for the
Railroad Administration who transmit
ted the request, said rate of com
pensation for short line roads would
be agreed upon eventually, but owing
to many details to be worked out in
connection with taking over of the
roads it could not be done within the
time specified by the railroad control
act.
Under the terms of the law as
finally passed all short line railroads
are to be considered as coming within
government control unless otherwise
specified by July L.
Mr.. McAdoo informed the Senate to-
day that no agreements had been
reached with any railroad taken over
under the Federal control act as to
the rate of compensation the govern
ment will pay. He said no carrier SO
far had refused to execute contracts.

40 Australian Soldiers
Flee From Transport

AN ATLANTIC PORT, June 12.-
Forty Australian soldiers who are part
of contingent of men from the Anti
podes, now on an Australian transport
lying at pier here, got tired of wait
ing for permission to go ashore late
this afternoon. SO they plunged over
the side OF the ship and made their
" way y from the dock rea see the sights
Leslie Worthington, eighteen years
old. one of the soldiers, is believed to
have fallen into the water when he made
the leap for the dock and to have been
around the pier tonight for his body.
The first word of the flight from the
ship came in the way of telephone
message from Lieutenant Robert
Stephens of the Australians to the
police. He asked that a general alarm
be sent out for the missing men, and re-
ported the possible death by drowning
of Private Worthington.
At just about the time the Australian
officers were beginning to think they
had real man-sized bit of insubordi-
nation on their hands, the wandering
Australian boys began to re-appear.
First came a group Of fifteen. A short
time afterward policeman came
marching up to the pier heading ten
more of the missing men. They had
lost their way in trying to return and
had asked the policeman to escort
them. The remaining fifteen were
still absent at midnight.
There are six hundred men on the
ship. All but the forty had had shore
leave. The fleeing forty had not been
reached as yet, and they were fearful
the boat would sail without their hav-
ing a chance to see the sights.
