Congress this week takes up the
war department recommendations for
big army plans. A large increase of
man power by extension of draft age
limits is the most important matter
presented. The bill presented Mon
day, the speedy passage Of which
is urged by the administration and
ghe war department, provides for the
registration for military service OF all
men from eighteen to forty-i Ave years
OF age. Provost General Crowder,
recommending the passage OF the bill
without delay, suggests September 5
as registration day. Secretary of
War Baker, in an Interview published
yesterday, said it was rot the inten-
ton of the war department to invade
the deferred classification lists, and
the extension of the draft age limits
would provide all the men necessary.

the sporadic raids by submarines
on the United States coast will doubt
less continue 80 long as the war con-
tinues, and Germany has a cruising
submarine left. They may, doubtless
will, occasionally score hit, as in
the sinking of the U. S. cruiser San
Diego, but the submarines will never
be serious MANAGE on this side of
the ocean. Blundering Germany,
wrong from the first in her analysis OF
the Psychology of the American
people, made her most stupendous
blunder of the war when she made
or- entrance into the conflict imper-
alive. She blunders again when she
thinks to scare US with a few long
distance submarines. The U-boat il
no longer a possible determining
factor in the war. We are building
ships faster than Germany can sinh
them, and sinking U-boats faster thar
Germany can build them.
