Speakers of Union Against
Militarism Heard by the
L Senate Committee.
BIG ARMY NOT COMBATED
Suggestion That Physical Benefit
AVonld Accrue Assailed and Dec-
v Juration Made Tllat Universal
Service Is to Favor Wealthy.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 13. Vigorous
opposition to any form of universal
service or training was expressed be
fore the Senate military committee to
day by several speakers for the Ameri
can Union against Militarism. Physi
cians and physical educators, headed
by Dr. James Warbasse, of New York,
assailed particularly the suggestion
that physical benefit would be de
rived from military training in the
schools. They were followed by a
delegation of college men under the
leadership of Max Eastman, former
ly of Columbia University.,
The committee, which has under
consideration Senator Chamberlain's
universal training bill and has heard
a. number of army officers and others
In its support, set aside three days in
which to hear witnesses designated by
the Union against militarism. At the
outset today representatives of the
union made it clear that they were not
opposed to building up an adequate
army and navy, but would direct their
arguments specifically against any
proposal for , universal service.
Psychology of Training; Assailed.
Mr. Eastman, a student of psychol
ogy, declared the psychology of
military training is opposed to
every educational theory of American
democracy and that the enactment of
compulsory military training legisla
tion would be the greatest step back
ward the nation ever has taken. The
sole purpose of military training, he
raid, was to train out of a man his in
dividual initiative and to cultivate the
Instinct of submission. He argoett that
adequate payment would bring al the
soldiers the country might need.
The present agitation for military
training, Mr. Eastman said, is only
the plea of aristocracy to sustain its
position. He satirized the pleasure
which he said the socially elect de
rived from publication of the .fact that
Vincent Astor slept at Plattsburg in
the same dog tent with his valet.
Conscription Held "Monstrous."
Erent Allanson. of Harvard, declared
that "conscription of people to kill
without having any say as to whether
we go to war is monstrous." Ha add
ed that lie '"hated everything mili
tary," though he was a member of the
Harvard battalion.
Columbia men who went to Platts
burg. said Edward M. Early, of Colum
bia, returned filled with the idea that
war was certain and were not open
to discussion of the subject. Robert
lJunn, editor of the Yale Courant. took
a. similar view. ' -
"This question of defense," said Mr.
Dunn, "is overworked In the discus
sion of preparations," adding that the
"Inspirational addresses" by Army of
ficers and others at Plattsburg had in
culcated fatalistio ideas about war.
TEXAS TRIAL TO START
b. jr. sPABrcrexii charged with
KILLING WIFE AND ARMY MAJT.
Shooting: of Lieutenant-Colonel Butler
. and Woman In Defendant's
1 Auto Is Recalled.
SAN ANGELO. Tex., Jan. 13 The
killing in Alpine, Tex., of Lieutenant
Colonel C. M. Butler, of the Sixth
United States Cavalry, and Mrs. Harry
J. Spannell by Harry J. Spannell while
the three were automobiling on July
20. 1916. and for which the latter was
indicted n a charge of murder, causing
. sensation among Army men on the
Mexican border, is recalled here in the
trial of Spannell, which starts Monday.
Spannell was indicted by the grand
jury at Alpine on a charge of murder
but because of the local feeling It was
deemed advisable to grant . change of
venue, and the trial was eet for San
Angelo.
Spannell was a musio teacher at Bay
lor College at Waco. Tex., when he
married Crystal Holland, daughter of
Colonel John Holland, a wealthy cattle
man of Weslern Texas. Later Spannell
went to Alpine with his wife, where
lie assumed the management of the
Holland Hotel, which was owned by
Mrs. Spannell's father. Mr. and Mrs.
Bpannell made their home at the hotel
It was there that they met Lieutenant-Colonel
Butler when the Army
officer came to Alpine In command of
the cavalry troops on that part of the
border. -Lieutenant-Colonel Butler
made his headquarters at the Holland
Hotel and became the friend of Mr
and Mrs. Spannell.
On the evening of the tragedy Span
nell drove up to the door of the hotel
irt his automobile and Invited Lieuten
ant-Colonel Butler to accompany him
and Mrs. Spannell for a ride. When
only a short distance from the hotel,
and on the principal street of the little
town, shots were heard from the Span
nell automobile and Mrs. Spannell was
found in a dying condition in the rear
seat of the car, with Lieutenant-Colonel
Butler's body beside her. Her
death followed soon after.
Spannell gave himself up, but refused
to make any statement regarding J.h.e
tragedy.
Because of the prominence of the vic
tims a board of inquiry was appointed
from the Army to make an Investiga
tion of the facts leading up to the
tragedy. This board completely exon
erated Lieutenant-Colonel Butler from
any blame, and the report stated that
the Army officer's friendship for Mr.
and Mrs. Spannell was honorable and
his conduct above reproach at all times.
Lieutenant-Colonel Butler was the
son of Major-General Calvert Mat-hew
Butler, retired, of South Carolina, who
was a United States Senator at one
time. His wle was the daughter of a
leading family of Nashville, Tenn.
RESERVE CHANGE READY
FEDERAL BOARD HAS
AMEND
MENTS IX DEFINITE FORM.
Announced Purpose Is to Place Nation
on Sound Basts for Sleeting any
Financial Emergency.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 13. Amend
ments to the Federal Reserve Act. de
signed to place the United States on
a thoroughly sound basis of financial
preparedness for whatever tkTe future
may bring during the continuance of
the war and after its termination, have
been put into definite form by fhe
Federal Reserve Board and soon will
be Introduced in Congress. -
The chief unforseen financial prob-
ems which the country has faced
since the war started have resulted,
board- officials believe, from the huge
gold Importations which have tended
to upset former economic and financial
ondltions . and the ' recommendations
for new legislation are aimed princi
pally at controlling loan extensions
based on these gold accretions. '
Amendment of the act. said a
statement issued by the board today.
seems necessary to enable us to deal
effectively with the new international
problems which seem destined to play
so important a part in our domestic
life. The banking system of the
United States should be prepared to
meet effectively two conditions of op
posite character one the excessive
and uncontrolled Inflow of gold, the
other the excessive and unregulated
outflow - of gold.
The amendments proposed are de
signed to provide means for control
ling an over-extension of loans based
on new accretions to our gold stock
and to provide for the mobilization and
concentration of gold holdings of the
United States so that the flow of gold
back into Europe or to South America
or to the Orient may be arranged
without forcing any violent contrac
tion of loans or causing undue dis
turbance to legitime business."

As the Government requires that

SHAKE-UP Ofl BENCH
OF COAST LIKELY
President Empowered to Re
tire Judges Over 70, if
House Passes Bill.
MANY VACANCIES POSSIBLE
Rule "Would Extend to Highest
Cou rt Promotions Probabl y
. Would Come From Federal
or State Supreme Courts.
OREGON! AN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Jan. 13. A wholesale shake
up in the Federal judiciary on the
Pacific Coast will" be in order if the
House passes the bill pushed through
the Senate before Christmas, permit
ting the President to place on the re
tired list eny Federal Judges who have
passed the age of 70. In fact, a shake
up throughout the country would be
possible.
The ranking Federal Jude-es on the
Pacific Coast are the four members of
the United States Circuit Court of Ap
peals at San Francisco. . Two of these
Judges, William W. Morrow, of 8an
Francisco, and Ersklne AL Ross, of
Los Angeles, CaL, would be subject to
enforced retirement under the pending
bill, and Judge William B. Gilbert, of
Portland, will reach the retiring age
next July.
President's Authority Absolute.
By the authority given him in the
bill recently passed by the Senate, the
President could forcibly retire Judges
Ross and Morrow, and in the middle of
the Summer could accord the same
treatment to Judge Gilbert, and after
creating the vacancies could fill them
as he might see fit-
Available for promotion to the Cir
cuit bench, with others, would be
Judge Charles E. Wolverton, of Oregon.
Judges Frank H. Rudkin, Edward E.
Cushman and Jeremiah Neterer, on the
Federal district benches in Washing
ton, and Judge Frank S. Dietrich in
Idaho. There would also be available
the Federal Judges in California. Mon
tana, Nevada. Arizona and Alaska.
It Is the policy of the present Attor
ney-General to favor the appointment
of no men to the Federal bench who
have passed the age of 60 years, but
whether this limitation would be ap
plied in promoting Judges from the
District to the Circuit bench Is doubt
ful. The rule, however, is favored
when it comes to filling vacancies on
the Supreme Court, and it is under
stood in Washington that the Presi
dent will not appoint any man to the
Supreme bench who has passed 60.
Justice vBrandeis was just under 60 at
the time of his nomination.
State Courts Stepping Stones.
If any of the Federal Judges on the
Supreme Courts in Oregon. Washing
ton or Idaho are to be promoted to
the Circuit bench at Ssn Francisco, it
Is likely that the President would con
sider, among other availables. Judges
on the Supreme Courts of the respect
ive states, though this rule is not nec
essarily followed. However. State Su
preme courts are often stepping stones
to the Fedeaal bench.
Three Judges on the Supreme bench
who would be eligible for retirement
under the pending bill are Chief Jus
tice White, of Louisiana; Justice
McKenna. of California and Justice
Holmes, of Massachusetts. There Is
little doubt that Secretary Lane, of the
Interior Department, will be named to
succeed Justice McKenna, but the
question then arises, will the President,
bearing in mind the wonderful develop
ment of the Pacific Coast in late years,
accord that section another place on
the Supreme bench?
Geographically, and from the view
point of diversity of litigation, the
Pacific Coast is entitled to two mem
bers of the Supreme bench. There is
no likelihood that Judge Hunt, of the
Circuit Court, would be promoted to
the Supreme bench, for his action In
the New Haven litigation would bar
him, and tlie other three members of
the Circuit bench are barred by age.
Therefore, if the President is to go to
the Pacific Coast for a second Judge
for he Supreme Court, he must make
his choice from "among the Federal
District Judges, or from among the
state Juages, zor mere is no nxeiinooa
that he would elevate to the Supreme
bench a man without previous expe
rience on the bench.
