Washington, Dec 11. The Smith.
Burnett Immigration bill, which pro
ride an educational test for prospec
tive Immigrants, will not be passed at
the present session of congress. This
was made certain tonight, despite the I
fact that It Is the unfinished business
of the senate and has passed the house.
The bill has ben quietly referred to
by Democrat close to the president a
"loafled with lyddite." The president
ha let It be known that It passage
would place him In an awkward pre
dicament. mends f the administration follow
ing today's length caucus of the sen
ate, aent word to the White House
tonight that the bill will be quietly
chloroformed. It was learned that It;
will be put through in the following
fashion: '

salendar of the senate is finished

. Immigration measure touched Will

London safety at sea treaty must be
disposed of before the first of the year,

ident Wilson in his address to con
gress, announced that this treaty '1
one of the most important, from the
standpoint of human life and limb be
fere congress, In the meantime, the
house will be deposing of the appro
priation bills. They are to have the
right of way In the senate, according
to an agreement reached by the major
ity. Once they come into the senate, all
other business will be Sidetracked and
it 1 believed it will be Impossible for
the friends of the immigration bill to
gel a vote on It before congress ex
pires by limitation on March 4.
Would Be Blow to ZAbor.
Failure of the immigration bin
would be the first wrench that has
been thrown into the legislative ma
chinery of organised labor. This is
labor pet bill. The American Federa
tion of Labor at Its recent convention
In Philadelphia, approved It, in its en
tirety. Labor organizations, not af
. filiated with the federation, favor it.
Police organisations have approved it
. declaring it would Keep out or tne
United State the undesirable sort of
immigrant, notably those from whorta
h rrltnlnal rlunsea are recruited.
Opposed to the bill are all of the
Jewish fraternal and beneficiary or
gantsatlon In, this country. I Fearing
that It might pass they have filed
with President Wilson a demand for
a public hearing should the bill reach
him. -

.Frie&ds of tha bill will not meekly
submit to Us burial. But It la Ira
poslble to see tonight how they can
prevent it. The appropriation bills
must , past) - or an extra session ' is
certain. And President Wilson has
told the congressional leaders that
another session next year Would

Representative lEobson, f&thef of

himself as "hopeful" of victory. He

ad never seen before,
and the gray-haired military policeman could give A
ho help. ----- i .
i My experience," he spoke detachably, "is that you'll
Ilnid everything everywhere. Is it any particular corps
you're looking for?"
"Not iti the least," I sai4- V: i
"Then you're all right. You Can't miss getting some
thing." He pointed generally to the.North Camp. "It's
like floods in a town, isn't it?"
He had hit lust the word. All, known marks ii the
place were submerged by troops.' Parade, grounds to .
their utmost limits were crowded with them; rises and
skylines were furred with them; and the whole length
of the roads heaved and rippled like bicycle chains with
blocks of men on the move.
The voice of a sergeant in the torment reserved for
sergeants at roll-call boomed across a bunker, j He was
calling-over recruits to a specialist corps. "
I But I've, called you Once," he snapped at a man
in leggings. i
"But I'm Clarke Two," was the virtuous reply.
'"Oh, you are, are you?" He pencilled the correction
with a scornful mouth, out of one corner of which he i
added. "'Sloppy; Clarke! You're all Clarkes or Wat
sons today, rou don't know your Own names. You
don't know what corp$ you're in. (This was bitterly
j unjust, for they were squinting up at a biplane) You ;
don't know anything."
"Mm I" said the military policeman. "The more a
man has In his head, the harder it is for him to manage
his carcass at first. I'm glad 1 never was a sergeant.
Listen to the instructors! Like rooks, isn't it?"
There was half a mile of sergeants and instructors,
varied by company officers, all at work on the ready
material under their hands. They grunted, barked,
yapped, expostulated and, in rare cases, purred as the
lines broke and formed and wheeled over the vast
maldan.
When companies numbered off one could hear the
tone and accent of every walk in life, and maybe half
the counties of England, from the deep-throated "Woon"
of the north to the sharp, half whistled Devonshire
"Tu." And as the instructors labored, so did the men
With a passion to learn as passionately as they were
taught.
A SOLDIER'S SORE TOE i .
PRESENTLY in the drift of the foot traffic down the
road there came another gray-haired man, one
foot in a gay slippef; which showed he was an
old solder cherishing a sore toe. He drew alongside
and considered these zealous myriads.
"Good?" said 1 deferentially.
"Yes," he said. "Very good" then half to himself-
"quite different, though." A pivot man close
to us had shifted a little instead of marking-time on
the wheel., His face clouded, his lips moved: Ob
viously he was cursing his own clumsiness.
"That's what 1 meant," said the veteran. "Inno
centl Innocent!- Mark you, they ain't doin' it to be
done with it and get off. They're doing it because
because they want to do it"
"Wake up! Wake up there, Issherwoodi" This
was a young subaltern's reminder flung at a back which
straightened itself. , That one human name coming up
out of all that maze of impersonal manoeuvering stuck
in the memory.
"An' it wasn't 'ardly even necessary to caution Mis
ter Issherwood," my companion commented. "Prob'ly
he's bitterly ashamed of 'imself."
1 asked a leading question because the old soldier told
me that when his toe was sound he, too, was a military
policeman.
"Crime? Crimel" said he. "They don't know
what crime is that 16t don't -none, of 'eml" He
mourned over them like a benevolent old Satan looking
Into t busy Eden, and his last word was "Innocent!"
The car worked her way through miles of men
men route-marchine. of going to die or build bridges.
or wrestle with stores and transport fouf or,five miles
of men, and every man with eager eyes.
NO MUSIC
THERE was no music not even drums and fifes. I
heard nothing but a distant skirl of the pipes.
Trust a Scot to get his national weapon as long as
there Is a chief in the north! Admitting that war is a
serious business, specially to the man who is being
fought for, and that it may be right to carry a long face
and Contribute to relief funds which should be laid on
the national debt, it Surely could do no harm to cheer
the men with a few bands. Half the money spent in
treating, for example.
,-,.' y
There wa$ a moor among woods with a pond in a
hollow, the center of a world of tents whose population
was North Country. One heard It from far off.
"Yo mun trail t1 pick an t' rifle at f same time Try
again," said an instructor.
An isolated company tried again with set seriousness,
and yet again. They were used to the pick won their
living by it, in fact and so, favored it more than the
riflei but miners don't carry picks at the trail by in
stinct, though they can twiddle a rifle as one twiddles
a walking stick.
They were clad in a blue garb that disguised all con
tours; yet their shoulders, backs and loins could not
be altogether disguised, and these were beautiful to see.
. Another company, at physical drill, in -shirt and trou
sers, showed what superb material had offered itself to
be worked upon, and how much poise and directed
Strength had been added to that material in the past
tnree months. .
; THE MAN AND THE CLOTHES
HEN the new army gets all its new uniform, f- it
win gaze at itself like a new Narcissus. But! the
present kit is indescribable. That is why, English,
i
w
fashion, it has been made honorable bv its wearers
our world in the years to come will look back with
reverence as well as affection on those blue slops! and
that blasting cap. j j -i
One far-seeing commandant, who had special, facili
ties, has possessed himself of brass buttons, thousands
of 'em, which he has added to his men's outfit for the
moral effect of (a) having something to clean and (b)
of keeping it so. It has paid. , , - I ;.. -
The smartest regiment in the service could hot do
itself justice in such garments, but I managed ltd get
a view of a battalion, coming from a walk, at a distance
which more or less subdued the er uniform, j and
they moved with the elastic swing and little, quick rip
ple that means so much. - j i
A miner is not supposed to be as good a marcher as
a townsman, but when he gets set to time and, pace
and learns the economy of effort, his developed iack
and shoulder muscles take him along very handsomely.
Another battalion fell in for parade while 1 watched
again at a distance. They came to hand quietly; and
collectedly enough, and with only that amount of press
ing which is due to a fear of being late. A platoon
or whatever they call it was giving the whol$ of its
attention to its signalling instructors with the! air of
men resolved on getting the last flicker of the last
cinema-film for their money. . Crime in the military
sense they do not know any more than their fellow-
innocents up tne road.
NO SHAMS HERE

are no civilians to listen and they have not yet learned
to tell service ones without being detected. j )
It is useless to sulk at any external condition of af
fairs, because the rest of the world with which; a man
is concerned Is facing those identical conditions; There
is neither poetry nor riches, nor any possibility ! of
pride, except in so far as one may do one's task! a little
better than one's mate. j j
In the point of food they are extremely welt; looked
after, quality and quantity, wet canteen and dry Drafts
come in all round the clock, and they have to be fed;
late guards and sentries want 'something hot 1 at! odd
times, and tne Dig marque .canteen is tne woricrs gath
ering place where food, life's first Interest to a man in
hard work, is thoroughly discussed. They can get out
side of; i vast o' vittle. Thus, a contractor whd de
livers ten thousand rations a day 6tands, by deputy at
least, in the presence of just that number of rather fit,
long, deep men. They are what is called "independ
ent" a civilian weakness which they will learn I to
blush over in a few months, and to discourage among
later recruits; but they are also very quick to pick up
dodges and tricks that make a man more comfortable in
camp Me, and their domestic routine runs on wneeis.
A WORLD WITHOUT WOMAN I j
IT MUST have been hard at first for civilians! to see
the necessity forthat continuous apparently j per
hkkety house-maiding and "following-up" which
is vital to the comfort Of large bodies Of men !in con
fined quarters.
In civil life men leave these things to their women
frlt rtiii where women are hot .officers, lnsnertlncr
tents, feet and such likedevelop a she-side to their
head, and evidently make non-coms and men develop
it. too.9 A good soldier is always a bit of an old maid.
But as I heard a private Say to a sergeant, in the matter
of some kit chucked into a corner: "to' carina' keep
owt redd up ony proper road on a sandhill." TO whom
his superior officer: "Ah know yo' canna, but yo' mun
try,' Billy." j ! !
And Heaven knows they are trying hard enough
men, non-coms and officers with all the masked and
undervoiced effort of our peoples when we are really
at work. They stand at the Very beginning of! things;
creating out of chaos, meeting emergencies as ithey
arise handicapped in every direction, and ovefcomintr
every handicap by simple good will, humor, self sacri
fice, common sense and such trumpery virtues.! i
1 watched their faces in the camp; and at lunch
looked down a line of some 20- men in the mess ;tent,
wondering how many would survive to see the ifull
splendor and significance of the work here so nobly
begun. But they were not interested in the future, be
yond their next immediate job. They ate quickly and
went out to it, and by the time I drove away! again I
was overtaking their battalions on the road. N6t unre
lated units lugged together for foot-slogging, but real
battalions, of a spirit in themselves which defied even
the blue slops wave after wave of proper m"enwith
undistracted eyes who never talked a word about! any
war. But not a note of music and they North Coun

There was much handshaking, marking
the renewal of Interrupted association.
As 10 o'clock drew near the floor
became more and more crowded and
the visitors' gallery filled up.
Secretary George Ely stepped up on
the rostrum at 10 minutes to 10. There
was suppressed excitement, broker

vously, messenger boy were all at at

1 WW II
by' J.W.T.
New York. Dec 12. This destruction of Admiral von Spee' squadron,
the defeat of the Russians at Lodz and the seizure: by Great Britain of
the Turkish Hinterland north of the Persian gulf gives tq the week's
war news a variety and significance of unique, interest.
- The most far reaching , in its ultimate consequences of the week's
developments is the British victory at Kurna. The seizure Of this mil
itary center hts broken Turkey's hold on southern Babylonia and lodges
in England's possession the most important part of 'Nebuchadnezzar's
ancient empire. The district extends from the Tigris and the Euphrates,
rivers to the Persian gulf, and gives England control of the new trade
route through Asia Minor to the Orient, which is destined to be of value.
bouthern Babylonia will be England s chief territorial pme if the allies
win,; and will add to the British empire one of the very few strategic
corners of the world that remain in barbaric hands.
Big Guns Count. 1
The British naval victory off the Falkland islands demonstrates again
the Overwhelming necessity for big gun3 and high speed in modern war
ships. Chance in a naval contest, if waged on the surface, seems to have
vanished. Given the calitfre of the guns and the power of the engines
and the result is infallibly predictable. j
Science has banished heroism from the fray. The smaller vessels
have no chance, and are death traps, while -casualties aboard the larger
ships are scarcely rrnre than accidents. --. "
Nevertheless, this fact must t not detract from the fine strategy
shown by the British admiralty in sending Admiral Sturdee to South
America. He seems to have been ordered afloat from his desk as chief
of the naval board after vo'n Spec's Chilean victory on November 1.
Apparently in command of some of the fastest and most powerful
cruisers of the British fleet, Admiral Sturdee crossed the Atlantic on
a diagonal course and ran straight into the Germans. The entire affair
from the time the admiral left London until he sank the German squadron
in the South Atlantic took about a month a truly remarkable exploit.
5 German Victory in Poland.
Equally worthy of the highest praise is the victory Field Marshal
von Hindenberg has won in. Poland. With a largely inferior force, he
has secured a firm hold well within the enemy's territory and has com
pelled the Russians to relinquish their offensive against ' East Prussia
in the north and Silesia in the south. There are distinct possibilities
that he may be able to inflict the most crushing defeat oftthe war on
the Russians if he can drive them rapidly against the Vistula river.

were approved by the caucuo. It was
agreed, that appropriation bills Will be
given the right-of-way over every
thing. Skort Christmas Hecess.
The Democratic senators also de
cided to cut the Christmas recess this
year down to a few days, it being the
opinion that the recess should be

An undercurrent of revolt over the

ready for .the fight.
Thi contest, coupled with lengthy
wrangling ovef the army and navy

of an extra session more imminent
