Equipped Until Then—Labor Market to Continue Serene. ‘Washington, May 18.—The first 500,000, men under the selective draft army bill, which is ready for the president’s. signature, will not be called out until September 1. Owing to lack of supplies to equip those drafted, Mr. Baker, secretary of war, believes it would “not be practicable™ to call out the troops until that time. In a Jetter written to Senator Jones, of Washington, Mr. Baker explains ‘that the' labor supply of the country will not be interfered with until that date as a result. Senator Jones had written to Mr. Baker urging the use of drafted sol- diers in the fields to help in the com- ing harvest. ‘Mr. Baker. replied that such a step codld ,not be taken because the men “havé training “at the best all too short” before they are sent to the Buropean battle fronts. His letter to Senator Jones follows: “The matter of obtaining labor dur- ing the harvest season is a very'im- portant one and is now receiving very eanest consideration by all the depart- ments of the government. Owing to the depleted state of our supplies it will not be practicable to call out the first five hundred thousand under the provisions of the act now under con- sideration by congress ‘until about September 1, so there will be no ap- precigbie interference with the labor supply of the country until that date. ‘When these men are called they. will have to be continuously trained with the colors until they are sent abroad. iAs the period of training before they are sent abroad will be at the best all too short, in justice to the men it must be intensive and- continuous. For this reason I do not think it would be practicable, at least this Vear, to furnish soldiers for the pur- poses suggested.” AGAINST INCREASING PAY . Connecticut Mcmbers of House Vote Against Measure Doubling Wages of Privates in United States Army. (Special to the Herald.) ‘Washington, May 18.—All the Con- necticut house members voted against a further increase in the pay of army men when the matter came up in con- nectfon with the conference report on the sa-called conscription bill, The proposition came up in the form of a motion to instruct the house conferees on the bill to adopt the following amendment: “That all officers and enlisted men of the forces herein pravideda for other than the regular army shall be in all ‘respects on the same footing as to pay, allowances, and pensions as officers and enlisted men of corres- More Than A Thousand Suits Just think of that for a stock at your disposal —and not an unworthy Suit in the entire LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT A saving of a Half Dol- lar on a Hat here.

Amsterdam, Via. London, May 18.— In the course of the budget debate in the Reichstag on Wednesday, Deputy Voghtern, socialist, attacked the gov- ernment for questionable methods in propagandsy in the war loan. He said that soldiers in the field had been forced .to subscribe apd that similar pressuré had been exerted on co- operative societles, Herr Voghtern added that the se- curity of the investment and the rate of interest had been rendered doubt- ful by an article in the Tages Zeitung, which said: “Assurances by the gov- ernment can only be given in the ex- peéctation of a large war indemnity.” || The deputy asked for an assurance that the interest would not be reduced. In reply the finance minister pro- tested against Herr Vogthern's 'state- ments and assured him that sub- scribers would be safeguarded. He ex- pressed his conviction that the sub- scriptions of the soldiers were volun- tary. Deputy Cohn, socialist, said that all military writers had counted, even be- fore the war, on a starvation cam- paign by Great Britain and that it was therefore hypocritical to act as if Ger- many was surprised by these tactics. The president here called ‘Deputy Cohn to order but the deputy con- tinued: “Granted that England did proclaim a war of starvation, right must remain right. Before the war I never imagined we should be dflven to war by Germany’s fault.” Amid a violent uproar Deputy Cohn was again called to order. EDWARD T.
