German Drive
Stirs Senate to
Action ON Bills
1t Passes Twelve Measures
Which Further War
Preparations

WASHINGTON, March 23.-News of
the German offensive seemed to have
had an unusual effect in moving the
Senate to action to-day. 1t was in no
mood for triling over the war. Twelve
bills, all intended to further war prep
aration, were passed in short order.
The debate disclosed great patriotic
fcrvor and a determination to press
the war with the greatest energy pos
Gible.
Members of the Military Affairs Com
mittee heard, in conference at the
War Department with the War Coun-
Gil, about the German gains and the
bombardment of Paris at an immense
range. When they returned to the Sen
ate they impressed upon their col
present moment.
Certain Senators who have not been
especially prominent in furthering the
Administrators war measures. to-day
made enthusiastic qspeeches urging
drastic action.
The Senate took up the Hardwick
amendment to the bill providing for
the registration of men who have be-
come twenty-one years of age since
June 5. This amendment would ex-
empt men who have become thirty-onc,
but have not yet been drafted.
Senators Smith, Of Georgia, and
that the nations army be doubled, and
declared it was probable the draft age
would be increased to thirty-fve or
even forty-fve years.
The upshot of the debate was that
Senator Hardwick himself was the only
man who voted for his amendment.
The bills relating to the army passed
by the Senate to-day were:
To suspend certain restrictions on
the purchase and distribution of mill
tary stores and supplies. This was
done at the recommendation of the
War Department, which reported that
building were being hampered by statu
tory restrictions.
To prevent interference with the
use of homing pigeons by the army:
To provide for two additional As
sistant Secretaries of War.
To provide for the use Of retired
army officers for instruction at camps
and universities.
To prevent desecration of the United
States flag and provide punishment
therefor.
To authorize the President to sell
war supplies, acquired or manufactured
by the United States to the Allies.
To provide communication or quarters
for officers ordered into the field. At
present officers when ordered into the
field cease to have va right to such
communication, and their families must
rent quarters.
To reorganizc and increase the nurse
corps of the Medical Department.

their former grades of enlisted men

British and French
In China Going to
Aid of Ser7enof
Especial Correspondence


SAN FRANCISCO, March 23.--It has
been definitely decided to dispatch the
British and French forces stationed at
Peking to North Manchurla to help
General Semenoff, commander Of the
Cossacks. in fighting the German Off
cered Bolshevik army and liberated
Teuton war prisoners in Siberia. ac~
cording to a cable dispatch from Toxic
to Japanese paper here.
The joining Of the British and French
soldiers with the Russian forces under
General Semenoff defines the position
of the loyal Russians. who have never
quit fighting the Central Powers.
This act of the British and French
forces in China stamps General Sc
menoff as representative of that Russia
which refuses point blank t. recognize
the Bolshevik peace of Moscow and
which is not only ready but Is actually
fighting the Central Powers.
Japan would undoubtedly join the
French and British in fighting back the
onset of a rather formidable force,
made up of Bolsheviki and Teuton war
prisoners, thoroughly we'll supplied
with arms and munitions.
The armed assistance to General Sc
menotf is timely, as the German-led
army has been successful in driving
General Semenotf from the Siberian
frontier back into the railway zone of
Manchuria

Are ON West Front

BOSTON, March 23.-Reports of the
presence Of Bulgarian troops on the
Western front find no confirmation in
recent direct advices received by the
American Board of Commissioners for
Foreign Missions. which has schools
and mission stations in the Balkan
country. A statement issued By the
board headquarters here tonight says:
Germany has been making every
effort possible to complic&te Bulgaria
with the Allies, and its press bureau
has been active in disseminating re-
ports that Bulgarians were fighting in
Italy and on the Western front. The
sentiment of Bulgaria is decidedly
against its troops going outside Of the
country, and the only time they have
passed beyond their own borders was
when they crossed the Danube into

The "Buffaloes," a regiment of the
negro brigade that is training at Camp
Upton, and is, officially, the 367th In
fantry. marched up Fifth Avenue yes
terday afternoon to the stirring strains
of "Dixie" and received its colors. the
gift of the Union League Club. from
the hand of Governor Whitman. Since
"Dixie" first was tune to live or die
BY the Union League Club has pre-
sented stands of colors to negro regl-
ments, and in times less stressful than
these those regiments have made en-
yiabie records.
81 charge you by all that is sacred
to defend this banner with all the
strength God has given you," said Gov
ernor Whitman in delivering the col
ors to Colonel James A. Moss at the
Union League Club. Bring 1T back
victorious, without 'one stripe dishon-
ored. one star obscured.'
1--WE will do it," replied Colonel
Mess with soldierly brevity. and the
crowd burst into cheers. which sud
denly were stilled.
Sing National Anthem
Three thousand and more negro
voices were singing "The StarSpangled
Banner" and singing it as Fifth Ave
nue. probably never heard 1T before:
The "Buffaloes" were singing, and
they sang as though they meant it.
There was a swing, vim, victorious
note to their rendition of the national
anthem that stified cheers and put a
lump in the most brazen throat. Hats
were dotted with astonishing sponta-
reity, and up and down the avenue
spectators in olive drab snapped to at
tention and the salute.
The "Buffaloes" can whip their
weight in wildcats, their reticent COM
mander AYERS, and do it singing.
The last note died away, and be-
fore the suddenly hushed avenue re-
sumed its normal pose the "Buffaloes"
crashed gleefully into "Over There, I"
and sang it through to the end, while
the busy thoroughfare still paused.
Then:
"Southrons. hear your country call you!
"Up, lest worst than death befall you!"
came the tuneful summons from the
"Buffaloes' band, while the band of
the old 18th, the negro National Guard
regiment that has been in France for
months. joined in the insistent notes.
Commands ran down the column as
officers pivoted ct the first note, and
some $500 negro fighters for world
democracy stepped out like one man.
The route led past Central Park and
into Lenox Avenue and the heart of
Harlem's Little Africa. Past stately
apartment houses, where some of them
