QUICK COUNT IS
PLANNED FOR THE
SELECTIVE DRAFT
Sheriff Ross Has Already
Received Supplies for
Coming Registration.

That Uncle Sam is not going to lose
any time in starting the work of regis
tering every male resident Of the
country who will come within the ages
prescribed by congress, when that
body authorizes a selective draft, is
evident from the fact that Sheriff Ross
has already received the supplies for
making this registration although the
act has not yet been finally passed by
the national legislature.
The moment congress passes the act,
President Wilson will issue his proc
lamation and the machinery for max
ing the count will be ready to start
action.
The instructions for the registration
have already been issued in the form
of statement issued by the war de-
partment and published in The Forum
last Saturday evening. These instruc-
tions, when received by The Forum
through the Associated Press, were ac-
companied by request from the war
department, asking that the widest
publicity be given. them.
The governors OF each state will be
chiefs of registration. The places Of
registration will be in charge Of the
sheriff, the county clerk and the coun-
ty physician, acting ex officio, unless
a different plan shall be announced by
the governor. In cities containing
population of 10000 or more the reg
istration will be under control of the
mayor. but, as North Dakota has no
city of that class this regulation will
not apply in this state.
The sheriff, upon notification from
the governor, shall appoint registrars
to serve, without compensation. All
persons within the age limit prescribed
in the act as it finally passes congress,
must present themselves for registra-
ton before these registrars on the day
that will be designated.
The supplies which Sheriff Ross has
received will be distributed to the
various registration boards, as pre-
scribed in the regulations. The of
fetal regulations will be in the hands
of all sheriffs within five days after
the president issues his proclamation.

''MEATLESS DAY"
WILL Be ABOLISHED

(By Associated Press. !


London, May 9.--Great Britain's
'meatless day" is to be abolished be-
cause ii augments the demand on
breadstuffs and other substitutes, which
are less plentiful than meat. This was
announced by Baron Davenport, the food
controller, in the house of lords. He
declared that diminution in the con-
sumption of breadstuffs was of vital
moment and a main factor in the situ-
alton, but he added: Provided that
the call for reduction is responded to
and the efforts of the submarines. are
not successful beyond reasonable like
lihood, we shall get through with a
fairly substantial supply in hand to the
time. when the new harvest becomes
available"
The food controllers pronouncement
was made in answer to a question by
Baron Buckmaster, who asked If the
government could make any statement
regarding the position of food supplies
and whether the government proposed
to take any immediate steps to make
certain that such supplies should be
equally distributed among all classes
ofdthe population.

JULES VERNE OUTCOME.

Most of us remember those halcyon
days when we breathlessly read the
tales of Jules Verne. Even the young
er men OF this generation recall his
Twenty Thousand Leagues Under
The Sea-"
All that has become a commonplace
Of history now, with the submarine
warfare. but the war offers new pos
sibility that dazzles the Imagination.
Within another twelve months, If the
war lasts that long, we will I'M
doubtedly hear of great battles fought
in the air between huge fleets of air
planes of all sizes, speeds and de-
scriptions.
Howard E. Coffin, Of the Council of
National Defense, has outlined to
congress, plans for the construction
of a great navy of the air, so formid-
able that it would dominate every
square mile of the western battle
and patrol the German lines for a
distance of fifty miles back of the
trenches. The Germans are reported
to be planning the construction Of a
fleet of $500 airplanes, which fleet
will be maintained with that figure
as the minimum strength. Up to the
present, the air battles have been be-
tween individual machines, or pos
sibly small squadrons of five or ten
machines. The thought of thousands
Of airplanes, each mounting the latest
machine guns and even light artillery,
carrying great supplies of bombs and
grenades, and capable of a speed of
from 100 to 140 miles an hour, is
staggering.
Mr.. Coffin and his assistants plan the
building of as many as 100000 air
planes, and the utilization Of all the
immense manufacturing resources of
the American automobile industry for
the purpose. The United States has
at least one automobile company that
could turn out 100000 cars in a month
to six weeks If it were confronted
with the necessity of doing so. The
country can manufacture automobiles
by the million every year. We prob
ably have more automobiles than all
the rest of the world put together. If
these resources were devoted to the
of aircraft, the problem
does not seem so impossible of
achievement.
The opposing armies are straining
every nerve to obtain and maintain
the mastery Of the air. If the United
States could permanently assure the
complete mastery to the Allies, 1t
would undoubtedly be the deciding
factor Of the war. ...

OTHER MEMS VIEWS.
An Editorial That May or May Not
Square With The Forums
Opinions,

New York World: When we have the
word Of Lloyd George that the three
NEST urgent needs of the Allies are,
first, ships; second, ships, and third,
ships, why in all conscience should
there be quarrel between responsible
persons as to the character of ship
construction to be encouraged by gov
eminent?
Only a few days ago it was stated
that an agreement had been reached
at Washington favorable to steel
for the construction of wooden
vessels to whatever extent was
practicable. This seemed to be a
reasonable solution of the problem. 1t
is not to be denied that. economically,
steel ships are to be preferred, but as
the immediate demand is for ships of
almost any kind, the controversy is
confusing. and 1t may be disastrous.
Steel ships will outlast wooden ships
Steel ships surviving the war will be
of more service in peace than wooden
ships. But there is no reason why tim
Der construction should interfere with
steel construction or why both should
not have all possible encouragement
The disconcerting thing about the
sharp disagreement between Gen.
Goethals and the shipping board and
the engineers Of the Emergency Fleet
corporation is not so much its relation
to the merits OF steel and wood ais its
evident bearing upon the selfish inter-
ests of rival industries and its certain
impairment of efficiency. We cannot
have too many ships. Whether, If
afioat after the peace, they are useful
or useless. will matter little If in this
emergency they help win the war.
