AN ARMY FOR PEACE
British Would Establish 100000 Men
as Army of Occupation.

London, March Capt. F. h.
Guest introduced a bill in the house
of commons today which proposes
compulsory service for the British
army of occupation. This army, ac-
cording to the bill, would be composed
of 100000 men and the enlistment
period would expire on April 80, 1920
Alexander Shaw. laborite, moved the
rejection of the measure because the
labor party is opposed to contlnu-
ance of CONSUMPTION.
Col. Winston Spencer Churchill, de-
Tending the bill. agreed that the gov
eminent, in providing for an army TO
insure peace, was pursuing a pain
toward universal voluntary service
There is not the slightest truth In
the suggestion that this bill be de-
signed to raise troops to be sent into
Russia" he continued. IF there was
no such place as Russia, 1 would still
be advocating this bill. No one would
be so foolish as to suggest interVen-
ton in Russia with conscript troops.
Our army along the Rhine and on the
approaches leading up that river num-
beers about 100000 men, which is no
narger than the United States army
there and much smaller than the
forces France is maintaining in the
occupied area

The same day will be held the pre-
urinary hearing of two deputy
United States marshals who arrested
the five men yesterday and confls-
Gated their game. The two federal
agents were arrested by the sheriff OF
Henry county, and charged with
transporting game in the state of Mis-
souri, without a license.
The constitutionality of the federal
act will be attacked. according to the
intimation of the attorney general to-
day.
That the federal government could
by the mere act of a department
classify Missouri as a duck breeding
place is a joke" he said. Under the
decision of all our courts, the owner
ship of all wild animals in the state
is in the state government"
The five men arrested by the fed

A TREMENDOUS JOB TO IN
CREASE OUR PRODUCTION.
In this emergency we have tried to
do our part. We secured the country
for raw materials-our Traffic Man
ager spent his days riding freight cars
im-we shipped raw materials in car
load lots by express and pleaded with
manufacturers to increase their de-
liverieS to u.s.
But it was a slow process. Some of
our raw materials are produced only
in Japan--supp1ies in this country
were low and shipments required
three months to come from the Far
East. Then we had to recruit and
train skilled labor. We brought our
statesmen into the factory and trained
them as foremen. We invented new
machinery, and managed to install it
on Christmas day, so as not to inter
tere with our daily production.
