SENATE PASSES RELIEF
APPR0P RATION BILL
Final Vote Is So for the Bill and 1e
Against-No Restrictions on
Distribution of Funds

Washington, Jan. 2t.--After week
day, by vote of SO to IS, PASSED the
administration bill aprropriating 800
000, 900 for food relief in Europe and in
the near east. The fund was requested
by President Wilson as means of
checking the westward spread of Boil
shevism.
The measure NOW goes 10 conference
for adjustment of minor senate amend
ments, but leaders believe final en- ct
ment will be accomplished next week
The most important senate amend
ment changed the house section
agaiSst feeding enemy peoples so thar
nationalities friendly to the United
States and the allies may be aided All
amendments designed to limit The DOW
er Of President Wilson or Food Ad
ministrator Hoover In distribution Of
the fund were rejected recently by the
senate and no final effort was made
for their adoption
Opponents of the bill made a final
stand against it with Senator's
La Toilette Of Wisconsin. Rorah OF
Idaho and Sherman of Illinois, Re
publicans, leading the fight. Senator's
Knox of Pennsylvania, Colt OF Rhode
Island and Smith Of Michigan spoke
In support OF the appropriation.
Just before the roll call, Senator
Borah asserted that not more than five
per cent of the senators actually IA
vored the bill, and that while feeling
to support it, they would

SOLDIERS MUST
Be SURE OF JOB
NO MAN WILL BE DISCHARGED
FROM THE ARMY UNTIL HE
OBTAINS EMPLOYMENT
MEN RETAINED TEMPORARILY
Order viii Solve Problem Of unem-
ployed Discharged Soldiers and
Stabilize Labor Conditions
Throughout Country

T. Washington, Jan. 25.-TO solve the
problem Of unemployed discharged sol
diers, the war department has ordered
that no man be discharged from the
army until such time as he can obtain
employment in civil life.
1t has been announced that orders
have been telegraphed to: all depart
ment and division commanders at Sec
rotary Bakers direction to retain al.
men who desire to remain temporarily
In the service, without prejudice to
| ployment.
The Order.
/ The order. follows:
"All commanding officers will take
steps to insure that every enlisted man
in their command understands thor
oughly that the war department does
not desire to discharge any soldier who
cannot secure civil employment 1t
will be made clear to every soldier that
where he would normally be dis
charged under orders for deInobil,za
ton, he may remain temporarily in the
military service at his own written re-
quest until such time as he can secur>
employment. The fact that he re-
quests to remain in the army tenn.
porarily, does not in any way operate
to compel him to remain in the army
for long period of time aga nst his
Will. Any man who would normally
have been discharged If he had NOT ex-
pressed his desire in writing to re-
main in the service. may thereafter be
discharged from the service at his Jwn
request, whenever he thinks he may
are retained temporarily under the
above authority will be attached to the
most convenient unit and where their
services will be most useful"
viii Draw Ailotments.
In connection with this policy,
adopted after orders were issued last
week for rehabilitation of the combat
divisions In the United States, it was
said that action to prevent a large pro-
portion of these men from facing I'M
was taken not only 10
protect the soldier individually, but be-
cause of It's effect upon employment
conditions throughout the country.
Another aspect Of the new policy
Is that the families of married soldiers
will continue to draw their allotmerts
from the government during this tenn
oorary service. For the time oejngSat
east, the war department will lave
nipple work to keep the men busy in
rehabilitation of O-ner
-roops and in storing war material and
n similar tasks.
