RID ARMY BILL
OF TRAINING
SECTION
Republican House Leaders
Win Demand on Com
pulsory Training.

The demand of the Republican
leaders in the House that a pro-
vision for universal military train
ing should not be included in the
army reorganization bill was COM
piled with by the Military Affairs
Committee yesterday.
The committee decided to report
out the reorganization bill without
a training section. Separate legis-
lation to establish this policy was
left to a subcommittee of seven, to
be appointed by Chairman Kahn
with instructions to make a thor
ough Investigation and report back
to the full committee.
This action followed a statement
by Chairman Kahn that he had a
definite pledge from the Republican
leaders that a rule for immediate
consideration will be granted when
ever the separate bill ia reported
out. He will name the subcommit-
tee today or Friday, he announced
last night and hearings will be
started without any unnecessary
delay"
Would Delay Action.
1t is understood to be the purpose
of the party leaders, however, TO
delay action on the training issue
until after the national convention,
and, If possible. until after the No
vember election.
A last effort to include a training
provision in the bill was made by
Representative Caldwell, Democrat,
of New York, who offered the reso-
luton originally proposed by Chair
man Kahn.
The Caldwell motion was reject
ed. IL to 5. and a motion by Repre-
sentative Greene, Republican, Of
Vermont, authorizing the subcom-
mittee to frame a separate measure
for subsequent consideration pre-
vailed. IL to 5.
Democrats Together.
The vote ordering a favorable re-
port on the reorganization bill also
found the committee divided. 10 to
6, the Democrats standing together
against the measure.
Chairman Kahn expects to report
out the reorganization bill today,
and it is planned to take 1t up in
Legislative, executive and judicial
appropriation measure is disposed
of, probably Friday.

Delay Aids Labor.
The resulting delay was sufficient To
enable the labor men to draw vp their
objections. For that reason a Request
for delay on the part Of the Chief
Executive was unnecessary.
Democratic members Of the HOUSE
who fought the conference report on
the measure at every step have not
abandoned their fight. but are exert.
ing great pressure upon the White
House in an effort to have the bill
vetoed.
Many Of these members who have
opposed the passage of the bill be-
cause they believe 1t to be an in
iqultous measure" and not because OF
any liking for the union men. assert
that twenty-five or thirty votes against
the measure were lost because Of Pres
ident Gompers' def to Congress-
Fear of the charge OF trucking to
labor" caused these members, most Of
whom were not familiar with the
terms Of the bill and were anxious to
have 1t disposed Of. to vote for the
conference report. according to asser-
tions made in the House Hobbies.
VIII Continue Fight.
In the event of the President sign
ing the bill. the brotherhoods are
prepared to continue their fight,

Dear Madam--I am contemplating

appreciate suggestions regarding deco
rations for walls, tables, etc. Have

GRATEFUL.
Japanese lanterns, Of course. should
be used as part OF your decorations. and
II you can get the square, uueerly shaned
ones instead of the ordinary round and
oblong ones. the effect Will he much
better. Use one of these on a tall fioor
lamp. If you have one. and place II NJ the
side of the hostess when she stands 10
greet her guests. Have an oblong pillow
placed on the floor at one side Of the
lamp The room should be rather bare,
and II you have a piece of japanese
tapestry or silk TO hang on the wall In a
prominent place. II would be very efrec-
tive. IL not. make banners Of chintz or
satine, and hang them on rods painted
Nlock with Japanese characters written
on them in contrasting colors (the char
acters need not mean anything).
Get small green or tan bowls at the
five and ten GEN. store, or anywhere that
they are cheap. Ill them with pebbles
and plant a twisted branch of a flr tree
In each one-to look like the beautiful
dwarf trees that are used for decorative
purposes in Japan. Place one of them
as a centerplece for each table, or use
large one, II you have only one re-
freshnent table.

type. with n moderately low neck ano
short or long sleeves. the kind of dress
that could be worn for dinner. too. But

Il and wait for complete success?
And how hard will you work?
Perhaps you are like Adelaide.
Adelaide secured position last sum
mer a year ago through some. friends
who were influential with business
house.
1t wasn't very big position, but
Adelaide was assured that II she showed
ability, and there were openings of any
kind, she could feel confident of being
advanced into the better position.
That was very tisfactory, for Ade-
laide had big ideas In her head-private
secretary to the president. with q good
chance Of being one of the vice presi-
dents, sounded just about right to her.
Not right away, of course, but in
time--a few years. perhaps.
CHE left just about a week ago.
~ She had stuck it out for year,
she said, and it had been a discouraging
year,
Nothing but the same work that she
had started with, and no opportunity,
no hope Of advancement.
She didn't feel that her employer had
entirely lived up to his promises, and
she could see that there would be moth
ing there for hcr--surely, after whole
year, there might be some slight en-
couragement, some little hope, some
tiny chance.
And so she left-and did her other
friends know Of any vacancy that she
could fill?
Perhaps. but they would be just q
mite slow in recommending her for it.
Employers don't do that-keep a per =
son Of ability in the same lowly posi-
ton in which she started.
1t doesn't pay them; they want the
use of that ability just as much as she
wants the advance.
