"WASHINGTON, Jan. 28. Chairman
Wadsworth of the senate military
committee, which agreed Monday to
report favorably on a compulsory uni
versal military training plan, declared
tonight that Representative Mondell
of "Wyoming, republican leader of the
house, was Incorrect in his state
ments yesterday that 1, 000,000,000
would be required to administer the
army reorganization bill with its uni
versal training provision. War de
partment estimates, Chairman Wads
worth eaid, showed that the annual
cost would be approximately J400,0U0.
000 less than the figure set by Itep
resrntative Mondell.
These estimates, the senate chair
ian sadl, were prepared on the theory
that the regular army and national
jruard would be maintained at the au
thorized maximum strength and with
out taking into account the enormous
Quantity of surplus stocks of equip
ment now on hand.
"Taking into account these fig
ures," the statement continued, "the
committee has revised the estimates
of the war department and believes
that the annual cost of the proposed
militrry establishment will run as
follows: 1921, $609,806,000; 1922, $623.
645,000; 1923, $631, 380, 000; 1924, 632,
675.000; 1925, $611,781,000 and 1926,
$390,987,000.
"In considering these estimates, It
should be remembered that they in
clude the cost of the permanent per
sonnel or regular army, the national
guard, the transportation, subsistence
clothing, laundry, medical attendance
and pay of all the young men to be
trained and all the elements of over
head, including maintenance and re
pair of all buildings and utilities."
Senator Wadsworth estimated In
1921 the average cost of a trained
soldier produced under the universal
training system would be $509, while
In 1926 It would be only $170, while
today $1800 is required annually to
support a soldier in the regular army.
Secretary Bijker has addressed a
letter to the governor of each state
requesting his official co-operation
In the nation-wide recruiting drive
to be inaugurated by the war depart
ment and to be intensified during the
week of February 22 to 29, which is
to be made national enlistment week.
The governors were asked to issue
proclamations calling the attention of
their citizens to the importance of ad
vantages offered in the "new citizen
army" and otherwise to assist in the
effort to bring the army up to the
full authorized (Strength.
Army officials said today a mini
mum of 75.000 new enlistments would
be required before March 31 In order
to obtain the beat results from the
training of the reorganized army. Of
this total 3S.000 would become eligible
for transfer to the regular army re
serve, and practically all of the re
mainder are one-year enlistments
which will be terminated in the near
future.
LAWYER ASKS LICENSE
Charges Against Iiee Roy Keeley
Are Held Xot Substantiated.
SAT-EM, Or, Jan. 28. (Special.)
3L.ee Roy Keeley, Portland lawyer, to
day asked the supreme court to dis
miss the objections to his permanent
admission to practice his profession
in this state, following the filing of
a report by a special committee of
the Oregon state bar association, in
which it was held that practically
none of the charges preferred against
him had been substantiated. Both the
report of the committee of the bar
association and Attorney Keeley's re
quest for dismissal of the objections
are now before the supreme court
for disposition.
The original charge against Keeley
was filed by A. B. Ridgw'ay, secretary
of the state bar association, and was
followed by a report embracing al
leged improper conduct on the part
of the attorney while a resident of
California.
Keeley is at present practicing
under a probation period permit,
which Is said to expire within the
next few days.

"The war developed ship-building
plants, wood as well aa steel, that
have won national recognition," says
the report, "and it Is desirable, from
the viewpoint of Portland's Interests,
that any rational and proper scheme
for the construction of wooden ves
sels should not only be recognized,
but encouraged by the Chamber of
Commerce."
It was recommended that the cham
ber call attention of its members and
citizens of the community generally
to the plans of the Coast Shipbuild

lishing the concern as a permanent
enterprise.
O. W, Mielke was selected by the
directors as representative of the

BARRING OF BERBER
DECLARED JUSTIFIED
Massachusetts Representa
tive Defends House Action.
NEW YORK MAN PROTESTS
injustice Done Socialist, Declares
Mr. Griffin "Vicious and Dan
gerous Precedent" Feared.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 28. (Special.)
The house is "a court of competent
nd exclusive jurisdiction over the
ualifications of its own members,
nd its action in excluding Victor L.
erger from membership because of
lleged disloyalty will not be affected
y any subsequent action taken by the
ourts in the Berger trial for violat-
g the espionage act. Representative
Ballinger of Massachusetts declared
n a speech in the house today.
Ballinger's speech was in reply to
riticisms of the house action made
y Representative Griffin of New
ork city, who voted against the el
usion of Berger.
Griffin asserted that it is not be
coming to this house to deny to any
man, whatever his opinions, his day
court. It is unfair to a large con-
ituency of American voters in one
f the sovereign states to say offhand
ithout deliberation, that their con-
titutional right of representation in
he American congress shall be denied
mply because the individual of their
hoice is not personally acceptable to
the present membership of this body."
"Dansero.ua Precedent Feared.
He charged further that such a
ourse would "establish a vicious and
angerous precedent," and "that this
recipitancy smacks too much of
lynch law."
Ballinger asserted that all the facts
earing on the conduct of Berger dur-
ng the war with Germany were ex-
mined by the house elections com-
ittee and Berger's conviction by a
nited States court was disregarded
ntirely by the committee. Berger,
he said, testified during the hearings
nd was given his day in court.
The same state of affairs would
exist and the same ineligibility would
continue," said Ballinger, "even if
he United States circuit court of ap
peals should see fit on some techni
cality to reverse the decision of the
nited States district court in the
erger case.
DlNloyalty Declared Proved.
As the government has no appeal
n criminal cases the verdict against
erger might be set aside and the
government be compelled to try the
case again. But Berger and his as
sociates did give aid and comfort to
he enemies of the United States
within the meaning of the constitu-
on and amply justified the house of
epresentatives in its exclusion ae
on, irrespective of what took place
after the passage of the espionage
ct.
"If Berger had been loyal to his
adopted country during the war with
Germany no objection would have
been made to his taking his seat in
his house in 1919, any more than
here was to his taking his seat in
911."

Ex-Meiuber Tells How He Was
Read Out of Party and How He
Had to Slgn'Rcsignatlon.
ALBANY, N. Jan. 28. In its ef
forts to link the socialists of America
with the bolshevik! of Russia, in a
conspiracy to overthrow organized
government, the prosecution at the
trial" of the five suspended socialist
assemblymen, charged with disloyal
ty, today succeeded in Introducing in
evidence the testimony obtained by
the joint legislative committee inves
tigating radicalism from Ludwlg C.
A. 1C Martens, self-styled ' Russian
soviet ambassador to the United
States.
The assembly Judiciary committee
conducting the investigation admitted
the evidence after protests by the so
cialists' counsel.
The prosecution also put into the
record more speeches made in New
York at a meeting held to celebrate
the second anniversary of the Rus
sian revolution.
James O'Neal, editorial writer for
the New York Call, in defending soviet
Russia, compared the revolution there
with the American revolution and the
red guards with the Sons of Liberty.
Split Are Revealed.
The chief witness of the day was
Mayor George L. Lunn of Schenectady.
ex-representative in congress, who
testified he had been ousted from the
party after he had appointed a repub
lican to office instead of a socialist
and had refused to discharge from
office a socialist who had voted for
other than a socialist candidate.
The prosecution, which claims that
it is possible for alien members of
the socialist party to control socialists
elected to publio office through a
clause in the party constitution re
quiring candidates to give the execu
tive committee signed resignations
from office, brought out that Mayor
Lunn had signed such a resignation
in 1911, but had refused to fio so after
that.
Mr. Stedman laid the cornerstone of
defense that several splits had oc
curred recently in the socialist party.
wnen the "left wingers and com
munists had broken away and that
many of their acts were being wrong
fully charged to the socialists.
Denial that socialists had pledged
support to L. C. A. K. Martens, Rus
sian soviet "ambassador," or had in
dorsed plans for establishment in
America of the soviet system of gov
ernment, was made today by counsel
for the detense.
Some Called "Outcl.i."
Seymour Stedman of Chicago re
newed hi3 motion to strike out a let
ter introduced yesterday, addressed to
Martens, sigrned "Rebecca Duhuy,
and purporting to be the sentiments
of the socialist organization in the
8th assembly district of New York,
represented by Assemblyman Louis
Waldman, one of the defendants.
Mr. Stedman asserted evidence
would show that the letter pledging
support to Martens was written not
by the socialists organization, but by
a group which after "an open political
rupture," had been excluded from the
socialist party.
Not only was Waldman not a mem
ber of this organization, said Mr.
Stedman, but the "outcasts" had
nominated a candidate to run against
him.
At the same time, Mr. Stedman re
newed a motion to strike out all
speeches except those made by the
five defendants, on the ground they
were not responsible for what others
had said.
Chairman Louis M. Martin of the
committee denied Mr. Stedman's mo
tion.

LABOR POLICY IS HIT
RAIIROAD CONTRACTOR IX
SISTS OX CHINESE COOKS.
State Commissioner Protests to
Washington Over Hire of Ori
entals in Oregon.
SALEM. Or.. Jan. 28. (Special.)
In a letter addressed to Walker D.
Hines, director of the United States
railroad administration with head
quarters at Washington. C. H. Gram,
state labor commissioner, protests
against the employment of Chinese
cooks in railroad construction camps
to the exclusion of American citizens.
Mr. Gram's letter to the railroad
director follows:
'May I ask that you exercise your
authority tending to alter the labor
policy of M. C Threlkeld, whose ad
dress is room 10, at C5 Market street.
San Francisco, who is reputea to
have a contract with the United
States railroad administration to
provide sustenance to construction
and maintenance of way crews of
the Southern Pacific system in Ore
gon and California.
The matter under complaint Is
that Mr. Threlkeld has an inflexible
rule, of bis own adoption, that only
Chinese cooks may be employed In
the camps where he is given authority
by virtue of said contract, to the ex
clusion of our citizens.
"An agitation has arUen over this
policy, emanting from an instance
that occured at a camp on the South
ern Pacific line between Marshfield
and Eugene. A foreman newly placed
In charge of a bridge gang, believ
ing his authority extended to the
kitchen of the camp, dismissed a
Chinese cook, and replaced him with
a citizen whose competency has never
been questioned. In a very short
period the foreman realized his mis
take when orders were received to
discharge the citizen cook and make
way not for the replacement of the
one discharged, but for another
Chinaman.
"K. M. Anderson, BIS Panama
building, Portland, who has charge
ot Mr. Threlkeld's interests in Ore
gon, defends the practice of proscrip
tion of our citizens and ascribes his
preference for Chinese cooks to their
greater, dependability. This Is a
gross libel on the cooks of this state,
and, I feel, not necessary of refuta
tion In this connection.
"It is particularly unfortunate that
an employer should pursue such a
course at this time, with many ex
service men, willing and able and
who, under fire, followed this voca
tion, and now in peace time within
the sphere of Mr. Threlkeld's in
fluence are denied tha opportunity
for employment.
"I respectfully petition that you
use your good offices to change this
condition, and trust to be advised."
