OPPOSITION IS SHARP
Question Of Universal Training to &C
To Subcommittee With Little
Likelihood Of Report At .
Present Session.

Washington.-The House Military
committee by bipartisan vote re-
fused to include universal military
training in the army reorganization
bill, which will be formally reported by
Chairman Kahn. Sharp opposition te
the reorganization program is assured
when the bill reaches the House floor
and it may be attacked caller by g
minority report.
In rejecting immediate consideration
of the training plan the committee
voted that it should become the sub
ject Of separate legislation to be
framed by friendly subcommittee
of seven," named by Mr.. Kahn, with
an agreement of the leaders that its
consideration would not be blocked
after a thorough inquiry had beer
made Of the cost and economic effects
This investigation is expected to de
lay action on the question until the
next session.
With the temporary disposal of uni
versal training, the committee voted
10 to 6, to report the reorganization
bill providing for a maximum peace
time army of 1900 officers and 299,
900 enlisted men, including the Philip
pine scouts and unassigned recruits
Unlike the national defense act o.
1916, which the new bill would amend
no definite tactical formation of thu
army is prescribed, this being left dis

A gentleman down from the north
eastern part of the county informs
the Record that he tried to get state
loan last fall, and, after spending most
of the winter trying to get the same
story twice from employees of the Bank
of North Dakota, he finally made his
loan through local bank. Guess
Cathro must be too busy eating, and
Waters too busy keeping Townley's
bank deals straight, to monkeys with
little things like farm loans-unless
they come from Cathro's home county.

Somebody by the name of Jennings
in Bismarck is spending lot of some
body's money circularizing the return
de service men with bunch of dope
about the service mems political par
ty His dope is of the most radical
socialist kind-and you are welcome
to two gresses as to who is behind
the movement.
The North Dakota primary this
year promises to be the usual farce
so far as presidential candidates are
concerned. The three leading repub-
liam aspirants to date are Lowden,
Wood and johnson. johnson will be
the only one to file in North Dakota.
Hence, to the voter, it is like the story
of the waiter who asked the hungry
man at the table: "Soup?" "No,"
said the man. "Well, soups on the
bill of fare and soup you'll eat" was
the reply.
The three gentlemen named above
are good presidential material, al
though the Record man feels that
Lowden would have a shade on the
other two just at this time. Wood,
however, is just about as good. The
Record man fully agrees with john
sons attitude on the League of Ma
tons. But, generally speaking, the
California senator is rather eccentric
politically.

of the Townleyites locally. But, up

when and where the proposed county

We do not even know whether or
