SEES SAFETY
IN DRAFT LAW
Congressman Kahn Will OTTER
Bill in Congress for Auto
matte Conscription.

An automatic conscription law
which would become operative the
moment war Is made against the
United States or this nation declares
, war against another, will be spon-
sorcd in the next Congress by Rep
resentative Julius Kuhn. OF Ssliior-
MIA, chairman OF the House Commit
tee on Military Affairs.
Representative Kahn, then ranking
Republican member. led the light In
the House for the selective draft act
when war was declared In 1917.
Chairman Kuhn believes an auto
matte selective service law is neces-
sary for national defense, ana along
4 with IT he would provide system OF
military training.
FEARS DELAY IN FUTURE.
ave lost three months by not hav-
ling the selectiye service act on our
Estatute books when we went to war,
said Representative Kahn yesterday,
'on his return from the Pacific coast.
such a delay might be fatal to our
cause another time, for we cannot
again be sure of having allies to
hght off our enemies until we get
frcady. ...
81 am in favor of amending the
( army reorganization bill of the last
Congress so that we can put conscrtpr
tion into effect Immediately when an
! other nation makes war on us, or we
declare war against any nation. That
would be a great guarantee for peace.
Universal training must be adopt
ed as a national policy to make this
4 plan most effective. / am convinced
! that the National Guard, authorized
, by the last army bill, will never reach
! authorized strength. Efforts have
;becn made to build up the guard for
many months, put it has less than
: onethird of its authorized strength
and increases in enlistment are

The Kahn bill for universal train
ling was endorsed by a vote of IL to 8
by the Military Affairs Committee
! last session, but Democratic members
7 of the House in caucus refused to
! permit consideration of the measure
at the time although urged by the
Secretary OF War.
SEES FLAWS IN ARMY BILL.
Congressman Kahn said that the
Army Reorganization bill had de-
tNeloped several flaws to be corrected
\in the next Congress- Something
ishould be done Immediately for avia-
tion, he said, and cited that already
Germany is outdisNancing the United
States in aviation since the end of the

suggested, to her pre-wsr condition

II am in favor Of appropriating
:5.o00.000 annually to be used solely
for the invention and development Of

American inventive genius Is the
best in the world. but aviation. as
q commercial enterprice in peace
times, will not give the necessary
encouragement for development of
aviation and the Government must do
it, If we can get the speediest and
best planes by spending 35,00O,Oo0 a

ment will lbe cheap. We expended
