WASHINGTON. April 25.-"CoD-
scription Is vital TO America be
fore the country can have success
in the war"
Lieut.. Gen. b. T. NJ Bridges
stepped out OF the great interns-
,lonal war council OF the Allies here
today to deliver this message TO the
American people today
While congress wrangled over
the selecttye consumption bill out
on Capitol hill. this tall, arrow
straight fighter in khaki, fresh from
the front. counted the cost OF the
volunteer system to England.
We were saddled with the volun-
teer system at the beginning OF 'he
war" said Bridges. We would
have given anything to get rid OF IL

mont. The volunteer system threw
The best industrial forces OF the
country into the trenches when they
were badly needed AT home; and IL
eft az home those whose places
we're az the front
IL we had had conscription At
the beginning IL would have ohvlat-
ID our later difficulties as 10 NUM-
tions. coordination OF our national
forces and many other vital things"
Then Lieut. Gen Bridges sounded
the keynote Of the British commits
sions message TO the American peo-
pie Said he III you're going 20
war you must go the whole hog You
must do II intelligently. systemati-
tally.
Men women and children must
Sll fight. at home and at the front
IT Is no longer a war merely OF
expeditions. It's war OF nations
Lieut.. Gen Bridges then made Il
clear that England believes cor.
scription alone. with the co-ordina
fi,n ~ national forces - iuvnires
will enable America TO speed thc
end OF the war
Our duty now Ia to speed up the
war" he said forcefully
AS TO how II will end. II can
only end one way. and II every.
body's back is put to the job we
can end ~ quickly Conscripuon
will insure that this Is done"
The general then spoke OF Eng.
lands attitude toward conscriptlon
The people of England are won

strong for conscription. | may say
they are fanatics on the subjec,
They opposed It only because they
didn't know what Il was. They now
