fering of the winter. The blizzard was

Event of Fighting.
MAY ADOPT COMPULSION
Washington, Feb. 5. War and
Navy department chiefs and em
ployes, busy with plans for any mili
tary activity the nation may require,
had interest in their task heightened
today by ' a personal visit from
President Wilson. Walking over
from the White House, the president
appeared unannounced at the office of
Secretary Daniels and after the con
ference dropped in on Secretary
Baker.
With Secretary Daniels he talked
over the amendments to the naval ap
propriation bill, which the house is
expected to pass tomorrow, empow
ering the president to take over ship
building plants, munition works and
other private agencies vital to the
construction or operation of the navy
in war times.
Visit la "Routine."
The president described his visit to
Secretary Baker as "routine." He is
understood to have been told just
what the army is doing in the way of
preparation.
There was no change in the situa
tion at the War department so far as
surface indications went. Demobili
zation of National Guard regiments
home from border service has not
been interrupted nor have orders
gone out to speed up the return of
other guard units. There are indica
tions, however, that the question of
just what steps would f ollow a declar
tion or war or a hostile act are be
ing carefully weighed.
The most probable course of the
administration, in the view of many
officials, will be to summon a volun
teer force of half a million men and
allow the decision as to passing to
a univarsal service system to await
the response to that call.
Response Is Generous.
The War department has at hand a
study of the steps necessary to or
ganize such a volunteer army, made
at the time the situation on the Mexi
can border was acute. No officer be
lieves voluntary service will Supply
a force of the size the army general
staff has repeatedly declared ade
quate for defense of the country.
Various bureaus of both the War
and Navy departments are laying
plana for swift action should a war
emergency come. Further messages
from individuals and corporations of
fering their services continued to flow
into the departments. Secretary
Baker said a generous response to
the national need was coming from
the "business and personnel of the
country."
The Navy department issued a list
of prompt offers reaching Secretary
Daniels, on which appeared the name
of the Bethlehem Steel company,
Fore River Ship Building company,
Electric Cable company, New York;,
