STANDING ARMY
OF 100000 IS
agreed upon
House Military Affairs Com
mittee Reaches Agreement
Making Army Practically as
Recommended by Pershing.

Washington, Nov. ia peace time
military establishment of about 300.-
600 officers and men has been agreed
upon by the house military committee,
Chairman Kahn told the house today
This viii include a regular army Of
100000 combat troops and auxiliary
supply and staff corps with strength
of $4,000 officers and men.
The strength of the army is virtu-
ally the same as General Pershing
recommended to congress, but it is
just about one half of the big army
program SECRETARY Baker and the
general staff desired. Their plans
called for total strength of $4,000
men.
Kahn said that no army reorgan-
ization bill will be brought before the
house this session because the COM
mittee feels hearings must be contin-
ued.
Other recommendations virtually
agreed to by the committee, Kahn
said, are voluntary enlistments to fill
up the army, continuation of tank and
chemical warfare sections, army or
ganized during the war and promotion
of officers by selection from a single
list thus replacing the old plan of Sc
niority
Whether universal military training
will be recommended has not yet been
decided nor have plans been devised
for the reorganization of the national
guard, Kahn said.

most solidly against her.
All the candidates wound up their
campaigns with feverish activity yes
terday and last night. Lady Nancy
had six meetings during the day. The
Laborites, she charged, realizing they
were beaten had descended to a cam
paign of personal abuse. They even
were declaring she had endeavored
to buy votes, lady Nancy said.
This charge che viscountess charac-

Washington, Nov. 15.-Working un-
der its self-imposed gag" following
adoption of the cloture rule by an
overwhelming vote the senate today
forged ahead in its work of prepar-
ing a resolution Of ratification of the
peace treaty. Two reservations We're
adopted within an hour after the clo-
ture became effective-one passing by
acclamation only two minutes after
the cloture vote was ANNOUNCED.
One reservation provides that man
dates can be accepted only by action
of congress. The other reserves con-
troll over domestic questions such as
immigration, tariff and labor.
The new rule. which completely rev
olutionized senate procedure. was ta-
ken good naturedly on both sides.
Many amusing incidents occurred. To
those accustomed to the rambling
freedom of debate in the senate the
order seemed to create a new atmos-
phere.
The decisive majority of rs to 16 for
cloture was surprise. The Lodge
reservation to safeguard the Monroe
doctrine was adopted 55 to 33, after
three attempts by Democrats to alter
it had failed.
This is the third reservation agreed
to today.
The Shantung reservation was ta-
ken UP next.
McCumber, leader Of the mild res
eryationists announced that on this
reservation he would split with the
Lodge group.
Washington, Nov. 15.-For the first
time in its history the senate voted
today on the question of limiting de-
bate.
The vote will be at IL o'clock unless
Senator Lodge withdraws his cloture
motion. Should two-thirds OF the SEN
ate support this motion no member
could thereafter speak more than one
hour on the peace treaty.
It has taken pressure OF the moss
severe kind from the country even to
bring the question UP for vote. A
growing conviction that few sena-
tors intend literally to talk the
treaty to death" unless forcibly pre-
vented has brought the leaders around
to move for cloture.

spent a feverish night last night and
today found herself an armed camp
with national guardsmen waiting
grimly at the armory for the advance
order on the /. w. w.
Reports last night that an invasion
of Spokane was about to be attempted
resulted in Spokane's two guard com
panies being mobilized. They were
held in readiness at the armory all
night.
The I. w. W. were rumored to be
advancing on the four main railroads
leading into the city, hundreds COM
ing from the Butte mines and other
hundreds dropping their tools in the
timber belt.
Whether they heard of the reception
that awaited them and turned back, or
whether the report was without foun-
dation. was a question early today.
RECEIVE THREATENING LETTER
Mobilization of the national guard
last night came as climax to events
of the late afternoon, when American
legion headquarters received a letter
signed by "Fred Rushman, managing
secretary of the /. w. W.
The letter threatened nine leaders
of the Spokane post with massacre
unless they desisted in their attacks
on the syndicalists.
The legion promptly answered this
letter by haying 100 members of its
forces sworn in as special police.
