from the federal service Of Brigadier
General Frederick +. Resche Of Min
nesota, a German born officer COM
handing a brigade OF the Thirty
fourth national guard division at
Camp Cody, n. NJ, was announced
yesterday in army orders.
Failure to maintain his command
on an efficient footing is the cause
officially announced for giving the
officer an honorable discharge. Ger
tain remarks attributed to him. how
ever. have drawn attention TO the
question Of his loyalty, and while no
overt act OF disloyalty has been
charged. his utterances are being in
vestigated.
The primary desire Of the war de-

ment yesterday, was to get out or
the service an officer Of high rank
who was shown by the reports of in
spectors to be lacking in zeal and en-
terprise in preparing his command
for conflict with the German army.
For that reason he was promptly dis
charged and the question OF his 10y
atty left to be passed upon by the
civil branch Of the government. The
discharge makes a civilian Of Gen

SEDITTON BILL
PASSES SENATE

Washington, April 1.-THE sedi-
ton bill, prohibiting, under penalties
of 20 years Imprisonment and $4,000
fine, language or acts OF disloyalty
or obstruction OF the army draft and
Liberty loans. was passed yesterday
by the senate without a record vote.
1t now goes to conference between
the house and senate, and final
enactment Is expected soon.
Protracted and bitter debate mark
ed consideration Of the bill. passage
of which had been urged by admin
istration officials to permit the gov
eminent itself to deal with disloyal
agitatoFs and check the growing
dangers of mob violence.
Though modified to meet the OBJ
iections Of senators who claimed the
original draft would curb legitimate
freedom of speech, the bill retains
the broad inhibition of words or acts
which support or favor the cause
of the German empire or its allies
or oppose the cause Of the United
States. 1t also would punish wilful
and "disloyal, profane, scurrilous,
contemptuous or abusive" language
about the American form OF consti-
tuition, army or naval forces, flag or
uniform and wilful utterances de-
signed to curtail production Of war
materials
