500, 900 ARMY BILL
FACES QUICK DEFEAT
Point of Order to Compel
Substitute Measure.

WASHINGTON, Feb. l5.-Defeat through
parliamentary tactics of proposed legis-
lation of the House Military Committee
authorizing organization Of q temporary
army OF half a million men for the year
beginning next July was indicated to-
night in the House. Representative
Humphreys (Miss.). Democrat. gave
notice that he would make point OF
order against the army organization pro-
vision on the ground that It is new iegis-
lation and has no place in an appropria-
ton bill. Expecting the defeat through
this move Representative Mckenzie
GlL). Republican member OF the Mill
tary Committee, submitted a substitute
proposal. which, he sald, had the ap-
prevail OF several members OF the Mill
tary Committee.
The fight on army reorganization will
come before the House Monday or Tues
day. when work on the military bill Ia
resumed after completion OF the unani-
nous consent calendar.
Mr.. McKenGie's proposal would author
ize organization of a regular army of
175, 900 men through volunteer enlist
ment OF three years as provided in the
national defence act OF 1916, and would
give the President discretionary author
ity to include in It new units. the use
fulness OF which was demonstrated by
the war.
During consideration OF the bill to-
night the House adopted without objec-
ton an amendment proposed by the
Military Committee appropriating s4,-
467. 900 for pay to National Guard mem
bers for attending drills. Other pro-
Visions relating to the guard. including
chat contemplating organisation of a
force of 10000 guardsmen under the
national defence act OF 1915, and appro-
priations aggregatins $10,163.000 in ad-
dition TO the amount added for drill pay,
were approved without dissent.

GERMANY TO SEIZE
FORTUNES OF RICH
Socialists ALSO Plan Heavy
Levy on War Profits.

wHMAR, Feb. II (delayed) There
will be sharp seizure Of the fortunes
of the wealthy. according to a predic-
ton made before the German National
Assembly to-day by DR.. Helm. Social
bt. in discussing the Socialists pro-
gramme, especially concerning taxation.
He did not believe. however. that the
Government would DO able to get the
great sums needed by seizing fortunes,
and he thought that the remainder must
be taken from the war profits.
The wealthy. DR.. Helm added. will be
hit "at their most sensitive point-the
pocke tbook." Luxuries will not be per-
mitted and inheritapces sill be taxed so
that all over a certstn moderate sum
will be taken by the Government DR..
Helm said he feared that hundreds Of
millions OF marks already had been
squandered by the Finance Ministers Of
Saxony and Bavaria
Count Won Posadowsky-Wehnor, for
merry vice-Chancellor and a Conserva-
tive, devoted himself to praise Of Cor
man qualities, except Germany's foreign
policy. which ne called tactless and
mistaken. Shouts of disapprovaI greeted
him when ne said:
"It 10 q question whether It was wise
to draw America into the war by unre-
stricted submarine warfare.
1T is a deliberate lie to say that
Germany wanted war" he added.
Neither the German Government nor
the German people wanted It."
Philip Scheidemann. the Chancellor
In the new German Government showed
himself able to handle conflicting dem
onstrations In the new National As
sembly with no sign Of being intimdated
by the widest opposition or moved by
the most severe heckling. No speaker
since the meeting Of the National As
sembly was opened has been SO out
spoken toward his opponents.
One OF the incidents of his speech
yesterday was his reference to Austria 8
desire to Join Germany. He said: I'VE
desire no reluctant adherents, and by
the same token nobody wishing to Join
US should be prevented" There was
almost a threat In his warning: 1.-THE
Entente Is able to force any kind of
peace on Germany. but II 1t is an unjust
peace 70,000,000 people in their hearts
Will never forgive or forget"
Adolf Groeber, Centrist, followed the
Chancellor, as leader OF the next strong
est party, and, like Herr Scheidemann,
emphasized work as the watchword
of the new republic. He protested
against the slowness in arranging for
peace, the severity of the armistice con-
ditions. the French desire for annexa-
lions, the Polish demands and plans to
put ex-Emperor William on trial as be.
ing all part Of a scheme to humiiiate
Germany" He asserted the League of
Nations would contain seeds OF new
wars unless constructed on principles Of
Justice"
