Summon- ing Chairman Dent of the house mill- tary committee, now considering the Bill, to the White House, the presi- dent made it clear that he believes the safety of the nation hangs on the ac- tion of congress in this regard. He will make a similar exposition of the military sitvation tomorrow to Repre- sentative Anthony of Kansas, who has led opposition to the draft plan among republican members of the military committes. Universal Liability. In his war address Mr. Wilson for- maily told congress that in his judg- ment the United States must face her cnemy with a certain weapon in the form of an army raised by application of the principle of universal liability for military service as a duty of citi- zenship. Supplementing that, he is- o Svery deiail the dapartmdntal plans n every de o de ‘which- have the 3 hh#:" the army general staff. In his action today, however, the president m;%;nud the fact ' that there may develop a strong feeling in congress in favor of adhering to the old volunteer system, and sought to bring home to Mr. Dent, one Of those who hold that yiew, the lessons to be drawn from the great war into which the United States now has been plunged, and which all point, military advisers of the government, declare, to the absolute necessity of facing the issue squarely and summoning men to the colors by draft. Compromise Plan May Be Offered. A compromise plan may be offered by the opponents of compuisory ser- vice. A sentiment for such a move was evident in Mr. Dent’s committee, before which Secretary Baker and the military chiefs of the war department assembled in full strength during the day to support the administration’s policy. There was no indication, how- ever, that a_compromise would be ac- cepted by the president. the senate debate on conscription occupied much time during discussion of the regular army appropriation bill left over from last session. The ques- tion is not dealt with in the bill, but during the debate Senmatar Kirby of- fered an amendment which would au- lective draft that might take six months?" “I prefer the selective draft system,” replied_the secretary. - £ Mr. Baker approved a suggestion that Instead of authorizing tWo incre- ments of selective draft foi 500,000 to an increment, the bl authorizes the president to call as many such incre- ments from time to time as he deemed necessary to prosecute the war. FOUR AUSTRIAN SHIPS SEIZED IN NEW YORK Customs Officials Acted Under Instruc- tions From Washington. New York, April 9.—Four Austrian ships, one of them a passenger liner, which have been self-interned here since the beginning of the war. today were seized by customs officials acting under instructions from Washington. The officers and crews of the ships, numbering in all 68 men, were sent under guard to Eilis Island, and intern- ons with the. taken from ey Dhie STea Tt Mook The four ships seized were the pas- senger steamer Martha Washington, a vessel of 8,312 tons, bulit in. 1908; Ida, 4730 tons, built in 1906; Dora, 7,037 tons, built in 1918, and the Himalia, 4,938 tons, built in 1910. Fires were drawn ang a guard of customs men placed on board. It was unoffcially stated that a hurried_examination of the vessels led the officials to believe that none of them had been damaged seriously. ‘When notified that their ships were to be seized, officers of the _vessels made no objections. The men on board were soon ready to leave and with their personal belongings were taken to Ellis Island on immigration tugs. The comparatively few found on board, in comparison with the number required to man the ships when in ser- vice, is accounted for by statements that some of the crews had been dis- charged and had secured other em- ployment. An unconfirmed report in maritime circles was that negotiations between an American steamship company and owners of the four ships looking to their purchase had been under way for some weeks and that if permitted the purchase might now be consummated.

The first ship will be ready within five months and the board will call upon the treasury for from $10,090,000 to $15,000,000 within the next few d-ys. Fifty million doilars already has &-n authorized by congress for the work of the board. Chairman Denman announced to- night that the preliminaries to the construction of the big_ fleet were in full swing. Contracts have been let with the buflders, arranzements have been virtually completed for the sup- ply of standardized lumber parts, the labor problem has been partly settled, and unless there is an unforeseen hitch by October, the shipyards on the At- lantic and Pacific will be turning out the new vessels at the rate of two or three a day.

The Austrian crews were taken off and sent to immigration stations and American guards put on board. The. measure was explained as purely one ‘of police caution, but it is realized that it may be interpreted by Austria as an act of war.
