More than this may reasonably be
expected if, indeed, we may not hope
for a complete victory for the con-
scriptive principle. The chief objec-
ton to the conscriptive principle is
that it would deprive those who
would volunteer Of the opportunity
to display the superior quality of
their patriotism and courage. But
this objection vanishes before the
fact that there is already outstand-
ing 4 cali for 724,000 volunteers
needed to enlarge the regular army
and the national guard to war
strength. Until this opportunity is
exhausted, the plea in behalf of
those who prefer to serve rs volun-
teers than as conscripts can hardly
be- made with plausibility The pro-
posal made by the advocates Of the
volunteer principle would assure the
raising Of IN adequate force, since
If tie number volunteering should
fan short Of the need, conscription
could be resorted to. But this pro-
posal remains vulnerable to the OBJ
ject that the force thus raised would
fall short Of the physical fitness, the
discipline and the competence Of
its officers that arc to be achieved by
the conscriptive process. And it is
subject to the further formidable
objection that the volunteer force
would include many men physically
inferior and many men who, for
social or industrial reasons, ought
to be kept at home at their regular
employments.-News j..
