Compulsory Military
 Training Scheduled

Washington, April 9.-Compulsory military training was shelved today in the senate and, after a plan for voluntary training of youths was substituted in the army reorganiza- tion bill, fight was started to elim- mate that and strip the bill of all training provisions. Final action went over until Monday, the senate voting 46 to to substitute the vol untary for the compulsory method.
 It's defeat was conceded, and, to provide for some method for train ing American youths, many advocates of compulsory training supported the amendment of Senator Frelinghuys- en, republican, of New Jersey, in cooperating the voluntary method. Chairman Wadsworth of the military committee gave notice that vigor- ous fight would be made to retain the voluntary plan under which all youths between Is and 28 years of age could enlist for four months training in any year selected by them. Upon concluding training they would enter the organized re- serve for five years and during that period be required to participate twice in annual maneuvers lasting two weeks.
 The senate vote eliminates com pulsory military training from in future development of the army re- organization bill. The house bill has no training provisions compul- sorry or voluntary and the enforced method, therefore, will not come be- fore the conferees.

Way to Dispose of First Methodist
 Property Open

Featuring the regular monthly meeting of the Methodist club of the First Methodist church at the Hotel Pines at dinner last night wan an address by Rev. James Thom- as, presiding elder of the Little Rock district, and an announcement that the trustees of the First Methodist would be allowed to sell the property at Sixth and Main.
 This last was the result of a friendly suit entered in the Jeffer- son chancery court to validate the property. The success of the plan of the First Methodis. congregation to build new church at Sixth and Pine depended much on the decision of the suit since a considerable part of the cost of the new building will be paid out of the sum received from the Sixth and Main property. This property was recently sold to M. B Collier.
 Following the announcement by Alex Rowell that the suit had been decided in favor of the trustees, W w. Taylor announced that as soon as the money from the sale of the property changed hands, plans would go forward rapidly for the erection of the new church, and Dr. Steel, pastor of the church announced last night that meeting of the trustees, to be attended by the architects, and others concerned, would be held some time next week to complete final plans, atfer which the construc- tion would begin.
 In order to enlist the enthusiasm of the members in the club work quasi military units was formed with three majors, Roy Custer, A. R. Cooper and L. w. Irwin, direct ing teh activities of Il captains, who will each have four men under them,

 "The increase in the productivity of the land, both in material and manufactured goods, however, can be made possibles only when developed system of communication is at the command of farmer, merchant and industrialist.
