ARMY AVIATION
MAY Be PR0BEO
DESPITE WILSON

Washington, May 17.-Negotiations
for compromise today postponed
what promised TO be pitched bat
tie in the senate over the resolution
objected to by President Wilson for
further war inquiries by the senate
military committee. The resolution
went over until Monday, with leaders
of both factions predicting that
amendments would be agreed upon
which would permit the committee to
proceed with its inquiry into army
aviation without disregarding the
wishes of the president
Compromise proposals developed
in private conferences after formal
submission by Senator Thompson of
Kansas chairman of the expenditures
committee, of Il minority report
against the resolution, previously re-
ported favorably, with notifications,
by the majority of the committee.
Senator Thompson was Joined by
Senator Jones of New Mexico, in de-
claring that the resolution remains u
dragnet preparation for wholesale in
Quiries regardless of their necessity.
Earnest representations were made
privately TO administration leaders by
those supporting the resolution, with
the request that they be conveyed to
the president before Monday, that
there is no Interior purpose to launch
a general inquiry into conduct of the
war, as suggested in a statement au-
thorized during the day by the presi-
dent.
The principal controversy now
seems to over authorizing military
subcommittee proposed to consider
aircraft, ordnance and other phases
of war pre- paration during the conf
ing recess of congress. Administration
leaders contend such inquiries might
be dragged along all summer. Com
promise amendments tentatively ac-
cepted by supporters accepted by
supporters of the Chamberlain resolu-
ton would substitute a smaller sum
than the $4,000 authorized for the
committees expenditures.

the success of measures to American
man power to the aid OF the French
and British armies in repelling the
German drive came today with the
announcement that American troops
had reached Flanders and gone into
training behind the British lines.
Official reports were lacking to-
night but Secretary Baker and army
officials accepted press advices that
the first contingent of the forces to
he brieaded for training and opera
tions with the British army had ar
rived. Soldiers from General Per
shing's army have been in line with

ion to send additional forces from
this country direct to the British army
was made after the great German
drive launched March q was we'll

Nothing is available at the war de-

is probable, however, that the national
army regiment reviewed recently in
London by King George is included

The infantry and machine gun units
of the division to which that regiment
was attached probably constitute this
first American force to appear in the
Flanders theater.

as being "in training in the British

that they are being brigaded with
British divisions in reserve and will
get their final seasoning quickly
through this close association with the
British veterans.
Unless great emergency arises
when the German assault is renewed,
it is not regarded as probable that the
American battalions will be employed
on the front line for some time.

Washington, May l7.--Government

country may be sought if the joint
steel committee proposals today, rep
resenting the war Industries board and
the American Iron and Steel institute
fails 10 agree on steps to increase pro-
duction for government and the allies
needs, and restrict non-war consump-
ton.
Chairman Baruch and his chiet
aids, j. Leonard Replogle, director OF
steel supply, and Alexander Legge,
chairman of the requirements division
of the war industries board, are un-
derstood to be prepared TO ask Presi-
dent Wilson to take drastic action the
moment they are convinced that that
is the only way to get increased steel
production.
The steel men understand the sit
uation, although the subject has been
considered SO delicate by officials that
it has not been touched on in the con-
ferences.
That serious consideration has been
given communicating developed to-
day, although it was said that such
action would be taken only as a last
resort to meet an impossible condition.
Say Shora age Is Real.
Despite the cloak of secrecy that
has been thrown around the activities
of the war industries board in ham
ding the steel question, it Is known
that most of the members of the
hoard, but particularly Mr.. Replogle,
feel that HE steel shortage Is real,
AHA iiut nterely Il matter OF fuel and
transportation.
They are said to hold that drastic
curtailment of all lesser essential in
dustries is imperative.
Any move toward government con-
troll will meet with determined oppo-
sition from the steel men, and even
certain officials of the war-making
agencies who are said to believe to u
degree in business as usual"
Big interests, notably the passenger
automobile manufacturers, already are
preparing to fight further curtailment
Of their industries, which the war in
dustries board Is known to have
planned.
Differences of Opinion.
Differences of opinion arose in to-
days conference as to what the steel
needs of the government will amount
to, and also whether there is q real
shortage. Mr.. Replogle who is direc-
tor. of steel supply and an authority
on steel production, reiterated his con-
tention that unless immediate steps
are taken to protect the steel and pig
iron resources in few months, Amer
lea will be seriously hampered in its
war preparations.
The steel men took issue with this
and insisted if they were given exact
facts, as to all war needs, means could
be found to meet them.
AS the result of their request for de-
tailed information, the joint commit
tee was appointed for the purpose OF
making survey of steel and iron re-
sources, was demands, manufacturine
facilities. commercial consumption and
the need for drastic Industrial curtail-
ment.
