afoot this movement along the

legislation to effect comprehen-
sive system of universal military

America prepared is America

I'VE now have compulsory ed

in all reason, we should extend
this system to the most vital fac

"America must profit by the
lessons of the past and build for
her own future-not for aggre-
sion-nnt for conquest-hut for
Amcricanism perpetual. There is
no question but THAT howeer much
we may differ on other subjects,
we all want this greao nation of
ours to go happily down through
the ages of time with it's mission
Of liberty and equality completed
TO go down with singing

tiles agree that men trained in
military tactics stand three times
as good a chance of coming out
OF war unframed as do unframed
