However, in 1888, seven years after
the death of his cousin, Duke Phi
lippe of Orleans, had placed him in
the role of "chief of the House of
France" he issued a manifesto call

Senate Accepts
100000 Limit
For Conscripts
Wheeler Says Briton
Told Him of Move
To Get u. S. in War
BY J, A. OIFARY

The Senate this afternoon agreed
to compromise limit of 100000 on
the number of men who could be
called out for military training at
any one time under the Burke
Wadsworth selective service bill.
Shortly before this decision, Sem
ator Wheeler, Democrat, of Mon
tana, caused a momentary furore by
charging that Sir George Paish, who
came to the United States from Eng
land two months ago, told him he
was responsible for getting this
country into the last war and was
here to accomplish the same purpose
in this war.
Senator Wheeler at first told of
the conversation the Englishman had
with him recently without revealing
the name, but Senator Ashurst,
Democrat, of Arizona, said he
thought the name should be given,
in view of the seriousness of the sub
ject.
Senator Glass, Democrat, of Vir-
ginia, interrupted Senator Wheeler
with the assertion that "if any
Englishman came into my Office with
any such proposition, would drive
him out"
Everything Short of War"
Senator Wheeler said that when
he pressed his visitor regarding the
statement about getting this coun-
try into the war, his caller modified
his remark by saying he meant
everything short of war"
Senator Lundeen, Farmer-Labor-
ite of Minnesota, joined in to declare
he ought to be deported."
The 100000 limit on the number
to be trained at a time was the
first major decision made in the past
week, and encouraged leaders to
hope for final passage of the train
ing bill within a few days.
The compromise was put forth by
Senator OMahoney. Democrat, of
Wyoming. who previously had ad-
vocated 100000 authorization. 1t
was PROMPTLY accepted by Senator
AONSC- 4NCpdDllSdlls VI AdSSdCIlu-
sets, sponsor of an 100000 linlita-
ton.
Senator Hill, Democrat, OF Ala
bama pointed out in debate today
that military experts regard 100000
as the minimum number who should
be trained for the Army alone, so
that the Lodge amendment would
make no provision for the needs of
the Navy and Marine Corps.
Says Navy Has No Problem.
Defending his proposal. Senator
Lodge contended the Navy has no
serious recruiting problem, and that
100000 under training at one time
would meet all military needs.
He quoted Gen. Marshall chief
of staff, as having testified 100000
would take care OF immediate re-
quirements.
Before the Senate reconvened this
morning members of the Senate
Military Affairs Committee met
for an informal discussion of various
pending amendments. but Chair
man Sheppard said no attempt was
made to pass judgment on specific
changes awaiting Senate action.
The major test was expected on
the proposal of Senator Maloney,
Democrat, of Connecticut, that con-
scription be delayed until January /
to permit further trial of the volun-
tary enlistment method for raising
the man-power needed by the Army.
Both camps look for a close vote
here, but after President Roosevelt
expressed his opposition Friday to
any postponement, the pro-conscrip-
ton leaders predicted that the Ma

BERLIN, Aug. 26.-Berlin got
its first taste of an air raid today
when four waves of British
bombers, swooping above pro-
tective ceiling of clouds, skirted
spectacular German anti-air-
craft fire and dropped incen-
diary bombs on the fringe Of the
city.
German flyers, returning later from
reprisal raids on Southern England,
said heaviest air fighting today was
over the Kent towns of Canterbury,
Deal. Folkestone and Tunbridge.
Without giving actual figures on
either side, the Germans said their
losses were in a ratio of only one
TO five for the British.
All the towns mentioned surround
Dover, on "Hell's Corner of the
English Channel. Deal is 9 miles
north, Folkestone 4 miles southwest
and Canterbury Is miles northeast.
Four British bombers, returning
from pamphlet-dropping raids on
Germany, had to alight on the
North Sea today because of lack
of fuel and were lost, the German
radio reported.
Millions Huddle in Shelters.
Berlin's 100000 population hud-
died in cellars and shelters for three
hours and four minutes during the
early morning raid, but informed
sources said only one three-room gar
den cottage in the northern suburb of
Rosenthal was damaged by fire, and
that there were no casualties.
The high command said it was
the first time British planes have
flown over the German capital, but
it was Berlin's fifth air raid alarm.
Germans said there was no dam
age. and that one of the raiders was
shot down. The high command said
the "aimless" bombing hit only
non-military objects.
BOmbings Last Night.
The daily communlque declared
numerous bombings were carried
out last night against the British
airplane and armament industry,
particularly at Bir,Iingharr, King
