MODIFICATION OF ARMY
BILL HARDiNG'S IDEA
Cut to 10000 by October Will Force
Break Of Contract With En-.
listed Men

Washington. - Although President
Harding expects to sign the army ap-
preparation bill reducing the standing
army to 10000. he probably will call
attention of congress to certain pro-
visions of the measure which he is
understood to consider will require
modification at the next session.
As it has come from conference, the
appropriation measure provides that
the reduction to 10000 men must be
accomplished by October l. War de.
partment officials say this will require
the discharge Of several thousand men
by arbitrary means. Under the Borah
provision. the department Is prohibited
from exceeding the actual amount ap.
rropriated, stipulation which Secre-
tary Weeks is understood to feel
might force the government. In its ef-
forts to reduce the enlisted strength, to
break contracts with some of the men
to be discharged.
It Is expected that when the presi.
dent signs the bill within the next few
days he will set forth this position in
more detail and will point out what
changes he considers should he made
in order to rectify the situation.

STATE OF WAR MAY Be

Satisfaction Over Settlement Of Die.
pute Between House and Senate
Expressed

Washington. - Establishm e nj OF
peace by congressional resolution
reached its final stage when senate
and house Republican conferees
agreed upon a compromise resolution
which they hope to have in President
Harding's hands late this week.
The compromise emb0dies the house
plan Of declaring the state OF war with
Germany and Austria at an end and
odds the senate provision reserving
American property and other rights.
The Democratic conferees, Senators
Hitchcock Of Nebraska and Represen-
,ative Flood Of Virginia. called in for
the final conference after the Republic
cans had previously arranged their
compromise resolution, refused to sign
the report. and said that with other
Democratic colleagues they would op-
pose the Republican plan to that end.
Overwhelming Republican majorities
In both senate and house, however,
were said to leave no doubt Of adop-
ton of the conference draft.
Action on the compromise resolution
is planned in the house and finally in
the senate. The conference report was
presented to both bodies late Tuesday.
Democratic leaders on both sides said
that the final discussion would not be
protracted and the Republicans said
they hoped to have the peace measure
sent to the White house by Friday, in
expectation of its signature by the
President before the Fourth Of July.
Satisfaction over the conference re.
port was expressed by both senate and
house Republican leaders. Chairman
Porter, of the foreign affairs commit
tee, was pleased that his plan for de-
claring the war at an end had been
accepted instead of the Knox resolu-
ton repeating the war declaration.
Senator Knox, however. gave out
statement declaring that both plans
accomplished the same result.

dJNNERVE ROGERS

How short is, the distance from the
sublime to the ridiculous. and proving
that even big. strong men sometimes
indulge in a. case of nerves. Or
mysteries, was Is demonstrated during
the filming of "Guile of Women,' a
Goldwyn picture starring Will Rogers.
whcih comes to the opera house
Thursday.
The incident was brought about
after a scene wherein Rogers and
Belmore engage in stiff hand to
hand struggle. Both men being tall
and heavy the tussle bordered on the
dangerous before Belmore was van
quiShed. Directly following this scene
came one in which Rogers bursts into
Belmore,s house, demanding to see
his sweetheart. and is repulsed.
A battle again threatens, Belmore,
who was well known actor OF
| Shakespearean tragedy before enter
ing the movies, has never lost his
melodramatic "Har' which he growls
/ out in a murderous voice when occa-
sion demands.
This time it was too much for the
Interpreter of the silent drama. end
Rogers was reduced to prolonged
spell of laughter when Belmore glared
up from under his bushy brows and
beloved "Ha" in his best manner.
"Ha. So you want to see her.
snarled Belmore, growing mere and
more enraged. and "Ha! ha. came
back Rogers, except that the star was
indulging in merriment while the Old
/ Shakespearean actor was manifestlns
intense and deep dyed villainy.
| Needless to say Director Badger
called off work while the actors COM
posed themselves and were restored
to their equilibrium.
Guess we're Just like kids any
way said Rogers. Sometimes we
get out of hand and the teacher mas
to discipline US.
