WASHINGTON, June 22.-Authority to train and equip in this country troops of any other nation at war with Germany and Austria is provided for under an amendment added to the $12,000, 900 army appropriation bill by the senate military committee.
 The committee completed discussion of the bill and Chairan Chamberlain announced it would be favorably re- ported to the senate next Monday After discussion of the resolution in troduced some time ago by Senator Chamberlain providing for the draft ing of citizens of allied countries, un- der such provisions as may be agreed upon in treaties. the committee re- ferred the matter to a sub b-committee which will confer with Secretaries Lansing and Baker and then frame an amendment.
 Another question which will be con- sidered by this sub committee will be probable legislation affecting the draft ing of aliens from neutral countries. Senators claim that since the draft law became effective there have been a number of instances where such aliens have been drafted after having failed to claim their rights and have been sent to France.

NINE HUNDREDS OF

 FRANCE FROM J. $.
IRepubIican A. P. Leased Wirel


 WASHINGTON, June 22.-Definite word from Rome of the report of the Austrian drive in Italy coupled with announcement of General March, chief of staff, that American troop movements to France had now ex-l ceeded 900,000 added today to the growing cheerfulness that has been apparent at the war department re- gently.
 Five Months in Advance
 General March told the newspaper men in his weekly conference that with the 900,00 mark passed, the United States is five months in ad- vance of it's schedule for troop move ments. At the same time, he briefly outlined the battle positions in France and Italy and drew the con- clusion that the enemy was being held firmly on all fronts, though fur ther great blows are to be expected.
 Tremendous Exertion Made
 The chief of staffs statements fur nished the first authoritative infor- nation as to progress made in the tremendous eXertion the government has been making to meet the chal- lenge of the German drive on the western front. When the first blow was struck on the Cambrai-St Quen- tin line, March 21, troop appointments were behind schedule. Today they are five months ahead.
 Make Marvellous Speed
 The speed with which the army is being moved to the front is sharply indicated by the fact that approxi- mately 100000 men have been em- parked during the last two weeks. The total movement during May was not more than 240,000. It was only two weeks ago that Secretary Baker | announced that more than 100000 had been shipped; a week later at the first of his conferences with the newspaper men, General March said the S00,Oo0 mark haS been passed and today he placed the figure at more than 900,000
 Million Mark by July i
 On this showing the million mark should be passed by July 1. Various factors enter into the problem of transportation. however, which forbi6s a definite prediction.

 War Situation Looks Well
 "The general situation looks well, was General March's comment as he looked at the great war maps where all the operations are marked out. The lack of fighting along the front is of primary importance to the allies, by giving us a chance to get more man power.
