Washington, March 29.-Land de- fense problems held h nresident's chief attention today in his conidera- tion of preparing the nation for the existing state of war, formal announce- ment of which is expected Tuesday. Senator Chamberlain, chairman of the military committee of the upper body, called at the White House this afternoon to tell the president that he should embody in his coming message a flat recommendation for universal military training. "We discussed the general military situation," Chamber- lain said. "Of course, I urged that the president signify his approval of some form of universal service. If the president would get behind uni- versal military service it could be passed, I believe. However, he has not manifested any change in his opin- ion. Until some bills other than my own are advanced, I will continue to push my bill forward." Chamberlain to Raise Age Limit Raising the minimum for young men called under universal training from 19 to 20 years is the only change Senator Chamberlain said he would make in the bill to be introduced at the coming session. Chamberlain left with the president an ?estimate of what universal training would cost, about $156,000,000 a year for 500,000 men. Under this system the senator said it would not be long before the regular United States army could be practically dispensed with, and much of the tremendous expense attended upon military establishment elim- inated. President's Position Not Known Chamberlain said he hoped the president would come out for uni- versal training, but that he was un- able to voice the president's present views on the question. That congress will pass an appropriation to provide supplies of all kinds, clothing, arms, ammunition,.and other equipment for 1,000,000 men was Chamberlain's be- lief. Six representatives today sent ut a call for a get-together dinner tomor- row to congressmen who favor uni- versal military service. They plan to start at that time plans for military legislation. The six representatives are: McArthur, Oregon; Green, Ver- mont; Platt, New York; Grey, New Jersey; Gardner, Massachusetts, and McCormack, Illinois.

London, March 29.-Appealing for more men to man the fighting lines, Chancellor of the Exchequer Bonar Law declared prospective fightingj casualties will be terrible. The casu- alties so far this year had been less than expected, he asserted. Bonar Law introduced the re-exam- ination bill providing for another medical examination of all England's millions to comb out those physically able to fight. A million men are af- fected by the bill. The cabinet spokes- man said the government considered such an assorting of England's men to seek out others available for serv- ice as absolutely necessary in view of the military situation. The needs at home had. heretofore been so pressing that those of the army afield have been compelled to suffer. The chancellor asserted that since the beginning of the year the recruit shortage had been 100,000. "The decreasing of the troops supply might mean the difference between a decisive and a fruitless victory." Y. W. C. A. Holds Last Vesper Service The University Y. W. C. A. held its last vesper service for the year at 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon in New- berry hall. Miss Gertrude Beggs, so- cial head, of Martha Cook building, told "The Story of a Story," compar- ing the ways in which different poets have treated the ancient theme of the self-sacrificing queen, Alcestis, and the psychological effect of her act on those whom she gave her life to save.

BULLETIN Berlin, March 29.-Germany does not want war with the United States, but if i comes Germany will meet and overcome it, Chancellor Von Bethmann- Hollweg declared in the reichstag this afternoon. If the American nation wants to increase the bloodshed, it will be her respon- sibility, not Germany's, and America will have to bear the bur- den, he said after reviewing the submarine history. Berlin, via Sayville Wireless, March 29.-Chancellor Von Bethmann-Holl- weg this afternoon addressed the reichstag, making a most important declaration about German policy rela- tive to the United States and Russia. Concerning the United States the chancellor said, "Within the next few days the directors of the American nation will be convened by the presi- dent for an extraordinary session of congress in order to decide the ques- tion of war or peace between the American and German nations. Germany Never Desired War "Germany never had the slightest intention of attacking the United States, and: it does not have such in- tentions now. It has never desired war against the United States, and it does not desire it today. How did things develop? More than once we told the United States that we made unrestricted use of our submarine weapon expecting that England could be made to observe in her policy of blockade the laws, of humanity and international agreements. This policy, I expressly recall, has been called il- legal and indefensible by President Wilson and Secretary of State Lan- sing." Union to Purchase American Flag At its last meeting the Union board of directors made arrangements for the purchase of a large American flag to be displayed in front of the club's temporary quarters.
