COMPULSORY MILITARY
TRAINING ELIMINATED
Voluntary Feature Adopted While
Senate Faces New Army Bill
Contest on Monday.

A respite was taken today by the
Senate in it's fight over universal
military training. Following adoption
late Yesterday Of a plan for volun-
the Army reorganization bill went
over until Monday, with another spir-
tied contest in prospect, in an effort
to strike out the voluntary system
also.
BY agreement the Senate session to-
day was devoted to eulogies of the
late Senator Martin of Virginia, for
mer democratic leader.
Senator Mcclellan, democrat, Ten
nessee, who led the opposition to the
compulsory training features Of the
Army bill. plans to call up on Mon
untary system adopted yesterday by
a vote of As to 8. In event of defeat
In that effort he said he will offer
amendments limiting the number of
youths who may be trained annually.
Mr. Wadsworth's Position.
Chairman Wadsworth of the mill
tary committee gave notice that a
vigorous fight would be made to re-
tain the voluntary plan under which
eight years Of age could enlist for
four months training in any year
selected by them. Upon concluding
training they would enter the organ
lied reserve for five years, and during
that period be required to partici-
pate twice in annual maneuvers last
ing two weeks.
In substituting the voluntary for
the compulsory training provisions
twenty-five republicans and twenty
four democrats supported the Freling-
huysen amendment. Seven republi-
cans and two democrats opposed the
substitution.
Spirited Final stand.
Advocates Of compulsory training
made a spirited final stand. Senator
Chamberlain. democrat. Oregon. de-
clared that President Wilson had ad-
vocated the policy. but Senator Hitch
cock of Nebraska. administration
leader. and Senator Mcclellan chal-
lenged the statement.
The Senate vote eliminates COM
pulsory military training from con-
sideration in future development OF
the Army reorganization bill. The
House bill has no training provisions,
compulsory or voluntary, and the en-
forced method. therefore, will not
come before the conferees.

"Teacher Pay Shameful"
Gen. Wood Urges Change

ROCKFORD. Ill, April 1o.-A plea
for better pay for school teachers was
made last night in an address by Gen.
Leonard Wood. candidate for the re-
publican nomination for President.
THE salaries which are being paid
the teachers in our schools and col
leges are shameful" Gen. Wood said.
I'm many instances they are less than
the salaries paid scrub women and
street cleaners, and when you con-
slider that the school teachers have
more influence on the minds of the
youth of this country than any other
factor, you can see that the situation
is a serious one.
TT, was estimated last year that
nearly 100000 schoolrooms were va
cant for the lack Of teachers. because
the teachers are leaving the profess
sion for better paid positions. There
is no reason why they shouldn't leave
If they can get more pay elsewhere"

SAYS milk PRODUCERS
ASSOCIATION IS A TRUST
C. W. Darr Tells Chamber of Com
merce Committee Object Is to
elk Prices"

Opposition to proposed legislation
providing for the tuberculin test of
milk coming into the District and the
approval of a law requiring pasteur-
ization under strictly sanitary condi-
lions was voiced last night by ice
tributors at a hearing conducted by
the public health committee of the
Chamber of Commerce.
Although many witnesses disag greed
with provisions in both the Moore bill
providing for regulating the importation
drafted by Health Officer William c.
Fowler. they were inclined to favor
the latter measure as a whole.
Charges Association Is Trust.
Charles w. Darr. who represented
several local distributors. charged
that the MARYLAND and Virginia Milk
Producers Association is a trust and
is largely responsible for the framing
this association" he said. lis TO fix
the price OF milk. The members pose
as public benefactors while they force
the babies in this city to drink milk
in tins because they have made the
price prohibitive. They have closed
the door to other dealers and the
supply Is not equal to the demand"
In urging the establishment of regula-
tons providing for pasteurization under
proper sanitary inspection. Mr.. Darr
said he considered the milk market of
the District closed by the regulation
providing for the tuberculin test. Mem
bers of the Maryland and Virginia Milk
Producers Association, he said, have no
competition in Washington because
other producers are forbidden to send
milk here.
Matthew e. o'Brien. who appeared as
witness for several local distributors,
expressed the opinion that it would be
! impossible to obtain enough milk in
Washington If tuberculin tests were
made obligatory on all producers.
The provision which Is in both pend
| ing bills, providing for bacteria count
| of $1,000 per cubic centimeter, he saIo.
| would make 1T impossible to distribute
milk because the bacteria content would
not be kept at that figure.
Protest against the Moore and Fowler
bills also was registered by A. A.
