PAGE SIX BISMARCK DAIL¥ TRIBUNE GERMANY URGES CONSCRIPTION TO AID PRODUCTION ~ Proposal Beeomes sti Stax abuse of Discussion in New Republic SOCIALISTS. OPPOSED remem 7 Evbry: Person jn Nation Would | Be Subjected to Operation of Law Berlin, Déc. 7—Conscription of la- hor to inereaSe™pydduction in’ Ger- many, a law for which is being draft- ed, would apply to girls and women as well as men and boys, all of whom would be compelled to render a year of service in, mines, factories, on farms, in hospitals, or, whatever the state directed. 4 The proposal, credited to Mathias Eraberger, former Minister of Fin- become the*storm center of a discussion which has run. the scale froni invective and threat to ridicule, and now, with the law nearing \com- pletion, its proponents have ag it apparent they will seek with degdly earnestness to force its passkg through the Reichstag. * On the other hand the opponents of the measure, including the powerful socialist. faction, have declared they will oppose the passage with every. means at hand and should they fail will later seek to violate the legisla- tion. Herr Erzberger’s plan is to supple- ment the (ax laws he has already suc- ceded in passing with a méasure that would compel increased sproduction, result. in a consequent increase in collectable taxes and so tend toward jermany pay her debts. ~ lists say the measure is a heme” aimed at the working ¢ es. who could derive no benefit at all from compulsory labor. They further point out that it pro- bably could not be generally enforc- ed and back up this statement with the argument. that many of Erzber- ger’s present’ laws have never (been enforcd, and no attempt, hag been made to enforce them. / While the law was intended primar- ily to affect the wage earners, it has, it is understood, during ‘the’ drafting process peen extended unti} ‘it would apply to virtually every person in Germany, in one form or another, as an effort to bring industWal as well as agricultural production to its high- est ediaency. However, the form in which it eventually may be submitted may be radically modified owing to the intense opposition. In proposing and supporting the law, Erzberger is said to have had principally in view the effect of con- scripted labor in the coal and tim- ber lands. One Million Unemployed The fact that there is now nearly 1.000,000 unemployed persons, in Ger- many and that many factories have been closed is pointed to by labor leaders and some legislators ag: proof that such a law is a “chimercial pro- posal” and could have no_appreciable effect. They also assert it would he expensive and would mean the estab- lishment of a colossal government machinery fo direct its enforcement. DESERT IS SAFE. FOR TRAVELERS Government Sea Region. PROSPECTOR STARTS MOVE Survey in Co, | United States Geologicé partment of California Univer- sity Makes Survey of j Desert. | Washington —The repellant though j interesting phrase “Great American Desert” was sprawled across a large part of some of the earlier maps of our western ‘ind southwestern— territory, and though the area/of supposed desert land was thus exaggerated, enough | rea! desert remains to justify “large | studies of methods of utilizing it and special studies of its water regources and watering places in order wake journeys across it safe for travelers. Travelers in the desert region of the Southwest must depend for thein ex- istence on “water holes” (springs, wells or natural tanks), many of which are’ separated) from one abogher by a hard day’s journey with team and wagon, ‘The’ water holes in most of this region have never been accurate ; ly mapped or described, no systematic provision has been made for miaintain- ing therl; and the roads leading to them have not been marked with sub- stantial ‘and reliable signs,, so that travel in the parts of the region that are remote from settlements has been precarious and even periious, A Pioneer for Safety in the’ Desert. The movement for the protection of prospectors and travelers on the varid desert plains of his country was begun many years ago by George W. Parsons, la prospector and desert expert of Los Angeles, Cal. In 1901 Mr. Parsons made a trip across the desert region of California with Prof, W. L. Watts, K state mineralogist, and, on his return, urged upon the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce the necessity of ‘placing guide posts and of developing water holes in the desert. ‘Mr. Parsons’ work led to an appro- priation by congress, as~a result of which the United States geological survey, Department of the Ihterior, in co-operation with the department ot, engineering of the state of California, surveyed. the southern California desert hd has recéntly issued a. re- port, entitled “Routes .to-Desert, Wa- tering Plates in the Salton Sea Re- «gion, California,” by, John S S: Brown. egion’ Covered by: the Report.
