"Field Day" Of

MANN FLAYS RED TAPE

It was field day for criticism in
the House yesterday. The War and
Navy departments and the War
Risk Insurance Bureau were the
particular objects of Representa-
tives' wrath. The attackers were all
Republicans.
Representative Green, of Iowa,
started the bombardment in a
speech advocating his bill for the
immediate creation OF a volunteer
army Of occupation of ten divisions
to relieve the thirty-two divisions
the War Department plans to keep
in Europe He declared it unfair
to our soldiers, most of whom want
to resume their normal life at home,
to keep them over there.
Minority Leader Mann severely ar
rsigned the War Department and
the War Risk Insurance Bureau for
delays in paying OF soldiers and
holding back allOtments to soldiers

and wound up with an expression of
fear that the royal reception being
rendered President Wilson in Europe
would rob him Of some of his democ-
racy.

Green. from the army as now con-
stituted. except the regulars. or out
side. II others desired to volunteer.
This army should not exceed, in my
judgment more than $4,000
The present burdensome. unneces-
sary and grievous conditions will not
be endured by the people. They ought

gress.
Joker In Draft Law.
Referring to the plan for an
army OF occupation, comprising
thirty-two divisions. to~be main
tained in Europe, he said:
To say that the people of the
country are surprised at these ng-
ures is putting it mildly. The coun-
try had been expecting that all not
enlisted for a definite term would
be discharged as soon as possible
after peace became an established
fact. even though it had not been
officially proclaimed.
Under no fair construction could
the seleCtive service law possibly be
construed to cover a period beyond
the declaration of peace. 1t is equal
ly clear that the War Department
has no intention of so constituting
II. and that it is the intention to
keep a great army in Europe for
n indefinite period"
Mr.. Green said a joker had crept
into the draft law. Instead of being
enlisted for the duration of the war,
soldiers were taken for the exist
ing emergency"
The emergency then existing is

wards Rome was made at Modane,
where a huge throng besieged the
railway station and greeted President
and Mrs. Wilson with a tremendous
ovation. The station was decorated
with American and allied flags, flow
ers and bunting, and many of those
who had waited for hours to hail the
train were waving tiny American en-
blems, some Of them homemade. The
train stopped at Modane for several
minutes.
In towns. villages and hamlets all
along the route crowds cheered and

Berlin. Jan. 1.-The Polish army. ad-
vancing along the railways toward
Berlin, has captured six German cities.
according to information received here
today.
Geneva Jan. "A Polish army Of
10000 to 10000 men, striking toward
Berlin. has captured Frankfort~on-
the-Oder, only fifty miles from the
German capital. the Polish agency in
Lausanne was notified by telegraph
from Posen today.
The Germans, the report said, are
hastily rearming their demobilixed
troops in an effort to stem the in
vasion.
Advance is Civil War.
The advance of a Polish army in
Berlin is an act of civil war. 1t is
an effort by the population of Prus-
sian Poland to wrest from the Ger
man government consent to sepa-
rate from Germany and unite with
Russian and Austrian Poland in a
single great commonwealth.
For this purpose, Prussian Poland
can call for help from the Polish
districts of Austria and Russia and
still conduct it's warfare against the
Germans as a civil strife The ad-
vantage of doing SO is very great t.
While the German people might
rally to repel foreign invaders of
their soil, there is a strong possi-
bility that they would show no en-
thusiasm in fighting a Polish army,
which is seeking no more than free
dom for the Poles.
Strike While Iron is Hot.
The possibility of an army of 1000
Poles proceeding toward Berlin is not
as ridiculous as appears on its face.
The disorganization of the German
military machine has left the defen-
ses of the empire in a poor condition,
while the demands fthe allies for
delivery of war materials under the
armistice terms have seriously depict
ed Germany's stock of weapons. But,
more influential on the immediate
course of events than either of these
facts. is the loss of fighting morale
Germany has suffered.
The most abhorred word in Ger
many now is war. The people,
therefore. may decline to permit the
government to engage in any opera
ions against the Poles which would
mean extensive bloodshed
In this case the Polish army would
be able to dictate to the Berlin gov
ernment and might obtain all of its
demands, including the cession of
part of Danzig to Poland, without
marching to the gates Of Berlin.
Should so Impressive a victory be
won, Poland would undoubtedly
thereafter begin to formulate claims
to be considered by the world not as
a small nationality, but as a first
class power.
