GLORY ENOUGH FOR ALL

TIE following editorial is reprint

council Of defense.
Glory Enough for All.
Proftless controversy sometimes
arises over the comparative merits
of the volunteers and the sOcalled
national army. drawn through the
conscription process, and especially
the members of the national guard
are prone TO grudge the honors ac-
corded the drafted forces.
There is no occasion for rivalry
or jealousy on this score. It is true
that some Of our young men de
clined 20 wait for the draft and en-
listed promptly ar the first oppOr-
tunItv. while others let matters take
their course; but this waiting does
not bv any means necessarily signify
defective patriotism
Enlistment i'm the guard in eK-
pectation of service abroad was
often prompted or at least stImulat-
ed bv fortuitous circumstances only
remotely related 20 the patriotic
impulse. Groups I'm college and out
were drawn into the movement
through the gregarious instinct and
from the desire 20 escape the draft
and in the wish TO be associated
with their fellows and for the rea-
son that in that way they might
avail themselves of the choice
among branches Of the service and
commander
There are many among the So
called national forces who were re-
strained from enlistment by reason
of pressing duties 20 their families
/ or exacting ties Of business. I'M

For instance, there is a captivat-
ing home scene in a native hut on
the Samoan islands, where the
graceful, flower bedecked figures Of
the young women. their courteous
