 SAVE FROM WAR NOW

Washington, April 21.-Those men of military age who have married since the state of war was declared to exist between the United States and Germany, will not escape their obli- gation to military service under war department policy which has been for mally announced. The war depart mept's statement follows:
 ssThe war department announces that all men who have married since the outbreak of the war will be treat ed on the same basis as unmarried men, insofar as their military obli- gations are concerned. It is desired that the utmost publicity be given this announcement"
 Which means there will be sudden slump in the marriage license market.
