Army Not Most Vital.

'T took occasion the other day in an
address to the people of the country
to point out the many forms of patri-
otto service that were open to them
and TO emphasize the fact that the
military part of the service was by no
means the only part, and perhaps, all
things considered, not the most vital
part. Our object is a mobilization of
all the productive and active forces of
the nation and their development to
the highest point of cooperation and
efficiency, and the idea of the selec-
tive draft is that those should be
chosen for service in the army who
can be most readily spared from the
prosecution of the other activities
which the country must engage in and
to which it must devote a great deal
of its best energy and capacity.
Volunteers Lack Judgment.
'The volunteer system does not do
this. When men choose themselves
they sometimes choose without due
regard to their other esponsibilities.
Men may come from the farms or
from the mines or from the factories
or centers of business who ought not
to come. but ought to stand back Of
the armies in the field and see that
they get everything that they need
and that the people of the country are
sustained in the meantime
''The principle of the seIective draft
in short, has at its heart this idea,
that there is a universal obligation to
serve and that a public authority
should choose those upon whom the
obligation of military service shall rest
and also in a sense choose those who
shall do the rest of the nations work
The bill if adopted will do more, 1 be-
ieye, than any other single instru-
mentality to create the impression of
universal service in the army and out
of it, and if properly administered will
be a great source of stimulation.
Those who feel that we are turning
away altogether from the volunteer
principle seem to forget that some
SOC, 900 men will be needed to fill the
ranks of the regular army and the ma
tional guard, and that a very great
field of individual enthusiasm lies
there wide open
