ee} i a ¥ er WILSON — Yard and the Navy Department. Destroyer flotillas are at sea in the | vicinity and presumably they heard the wireless warning which swept the coast line and set out to Jocate the mysterious craft. Meanwhile shipping was warned not to venture out. Soon afterward a report of a raider off the Virginia Capes came from Hampton Roads, where shipping also was held in port while armed craft went to sea to investigate. Navy officials expect many reports of raiders while the seacoast is at high tension, and many such probably will turn out to be unoffending tramps. No precautions are being overlooked, however, and the naval patrol is on the alert to examine ail strange ships. CONGRESS WILL VOTE SOON BILLIONS TO CARRY ON WAR By Samuel M. William (Special Staff Correspondent of The Evening World.) WASHINGTON, April 7.—War orders for active service, mobiliza- tions, preparedness, protection and detense followed each other in swift succession to-day from the executive departments of Government. Most of them were secret, and only their results will become apparent. Al- though no enemy has yet approached cur shores, the Government is pro- ceeding with preparations unprecedented in the nation’s history. The war in Europe has taught America’s experts many valuable lessons. The greatest of these is knowledge how to avoid blunders and delays. The country may be, for the moment, deficient in numbers ot trained men under arms, of fleets of ships and stores of munitions, but it is miles ahead of Great Britain’s state‘on the day she entered the conflict. Secretary Baker of the War Doe- partment went before the House Military Committee to-day to explain the new army bill and urge necessity of quick action, The General Staff, supported by Secretary Baker and President Wilson, asserts that the con- scription feature is absolutely essen- tial to national defense and public safety, In explanation of the phrase selective draft used by the Président, army experts say this means that considered by Congr assembi: to the when it re- ind, according Carrying army. estd an increase of $38,274,000 over the amount passed by the House, the annual regular army appropriation bill was to-day ordered reported by the Nenate Military Com. mittee, The Chamberlain Universal Training Bill was not included and will be separately considered, d.
