and declared that the intensity of the
conflict had so worn on his nerves, he
was given a furlough. He holds a
kings medal for bravery.
c. e. Sharpe, chairman OF the ways
and means committee of the Rotary

legitimate features of hitting the

DRAFT FAIR TO ALL
Secretary Why seecYe CONSUMPTION Was Decided
Upon.

determine that. I am not sure that
lust for blood is necessarily valuable
asset for a soldier Willingness TO do
his duty is enough. I think we are
facing a situation which is larger
than any task the government has had
Of this kind since the Civil war. and
officers ought TO be selected and taken
purely In accordance with military
canons. The fact that a man is pop
ulaT or influential may. and doubtless
does, indicate the possession of very
admirable personal CHARACTERISTICS and
qualities. but that has nothing to do
with the question of military efficiency.
( So far as | am personally concerned,
! think there is distinct moral gain
in a mans addressing to himself the
question as to whether his country is
worthy of sacrifice and determining
that moral question in favor of the
sacrifice. ! think that man is better
man who addresses that moral cues
ton to himself.
Q. Do you not believe a man who
really wanted to go to war as a vol
unteer and who was anxious to go
I would make a better soldier than the
man who really went in half-heartedIy
/ or who did not want to GO or for
some reason felt that he did not want
to fight at this time?
4. / don't think l would like to say
/ that / think some of the bravest men
/ in the world, and men who have done
the best work. have been men who
/ shrank from conflict rather than court
ed it,
Duty OF Citizen.
| @. There will be thousands OF young
men who have brothers on the other
side in this war. You recognize that
fact, do you not?
/ A. l would be unable to recognize
any relationship between any citizen
OF the United States and any body pol
lite or individual that would Interfere
with his duty.
@. You have said that this selectiye
draft bill was your bill: that YOU had
dictated its outlines. Where did YOU
I get your information?
A. | am now 45 years of age. and
for the last year of my life have done
nothing but study these problems. and
this particular problem, and thin3
1t would not be improper for me tc
expect of myself. when / come to con.
slider this problem. some ideas on tn.
subject. Every idea / have had ha,
been canvassed with my associates il
the military establishment, Bp
, when they have all spoken, want i
, understood that the war department
| speaks by the secretary and not hy Al
! individual officer. l was deeply welded
, TO trying TO avoid in the selectiye draf
! bill the question OF permanent pol
ley, so we can meet this emergenc,
only. Ny feeling about It Is. as 8,
very aptly expressed by the president
that We do not know what the mill
= tary policy OF any civilized eountr-
. may be required to be when this war i
over, and am therefore very anxioa
{ not to take advantage of the presen
e emergency TO adopt a permanent pol

Spencer Trent, a Rock Island boy,
formerly a clerk In the Peoples Ma

the regimental supply company of
the One Hundred and Twenty-sixth

I'VE were paid this morning at 10

ing happy We expect to be paid
about this time Of the month in the
future as the Office is right here in

been somewhere in the bottom of my

and l don't care as We aren't allowed
! to wear a tie between 'reveiIle' and
retreat or that is during the drill

in the evening either. If I put a tic
on now it would be in the way all tht

Yesterday / received two boxes o.
candy. Both surprised me as they
came without any warning. Have
you heard from Mrs. Mcintyre since
she has been home from the west? Sh'
can tell you some things about thi!
camp, Yesterday we had three regu
/ lar meals for a change. ( For dinne
we had stewed chicken, mashed Pc
tatoes, gravy. peas, celery, pickles
bread, (no butter) and ice tea. Fo
supper we had oyster stew, crackers
potato salad, minced ham, bread. jan
and lemonade. This is the first of tn
month and our allowance is q littl
freer so the mess sergeant though
he would feed us up for once.
