The French surprised the Germans
northwest of Hurtebise on the Aisne
front last night, capturing strong
trenches and 300 pensioners. In this
sector lies the most formidable route
to Laon, the vital fortress to the
German line in France. Last nights
attack seems to indicate that the
French intend counter attacking in
opposition to the nagging tactics of
Gen. Won Hindenburg, who is thrust
ing here and there for dominating
points on the line.

SELECTIVE SERVICE WHY
By WOODROW WILSON

President Wilson why
following paragraphs taken from the presidents seectve service
The power against which we are arrayed has sought
to impose its will upon the world by force To this end
has increased armament until it has changed the face
of war. In the sense in which have been wont to
think of armies there are no armies in this struggle
There are entire nations armed. Thus, the men who
remain to till the soil and the factories are no less
part of the army that is in France than the men be-
meath the battle flags 1t be with us. 1t
an army that must shape and train for war; is
nation. TO this end people must draw close in one
compact front against common foe. But this cannot
be if each man pursues q private purpose.
All must pursue one purpose. The nation needs all
but it needs each in the field that will
pleasure him, but in the endeavor that will best
serve the common good Thus, though sharpshooter
pleaS6S = operate trip-hamner for the forging of
gn g B. and expert n1achnist desires to march
II fe lag, the nation is being served only when the
sPetq6ter marches and the nnachinst remains at his
lever. ~
The whole nation must be team in which each man
shall play the part for which he is best fitted To this
end congress has provided that the nation shall be or
gained for by selection, and that each man shall
be classified for service in the place to which it shall best
the general good to call him. The significance of
this cannot be overstated.
ut Ls~ thing in Our history and landmark in
our progress 1t is of accepting and vital
zng our duty to give ourselves with thoughtful devo-
ton to the purpose of all 1t is in no sense
CONSUMPTION of the unwilling; it is, rather selection
from nation which has volunteered in mass It is no
more choosing of those who shall march with the
Colors than it is selection of those who shall serve an
equally necessary and devoted purpose in the industries
that lie behind the battle line.

Washington. June 4.-Plans of the
war department to draft from 900
600 to 100000 men of the 10000. 600
who it is estimated will register to-
morrow for the new army were dis
closed today by Provost Marshal Gen
eral CrOwder to the senate military
affairs committee. Exemptions, he
said, probably would result in reduc-
ing the number to $4,000 men for
immediate service.
While the war department had
originally planned to first select 800
600 men, General Crowder told the
committee the plans have been re-
vised and it is now proposed to re-
quire $4,000.
General Crowder told the commit
tee the additional $4,000 will be
needed to fill up vacancies in the
army of 100000 and to keep train
ing camps in continuous operation.
Casualties from foreign service, he
declared, sickness, etc, make neces-
sary a reserve of $4,000 men.
General Crowder told the commit
tee he favored immediate drafting
of men registering so that men draft
ed can have a few weeks to make
their personal arrangements.
The provost marshal general said
the government does not contemplate
any class exemptions but that al
will be personal.
The men drafted probably will be
in training camps by September l

chorus, to America" the finale, ap-
plause greeted the various numbers.
Rev. Father McDermott and John B.
Jones, the speakers, both of whom
have been heard to good advantage
IN the past, were at their best, and
their addresses held the rapt atten-
ton of those present.
Their hearers freely showed BY
their applause that they stand back

IN his eall for young men of this
country by the sclective draft
Mr.. Willoughby, lecturer of the
local council, introduced Rev. Father
McDermOtt in a few well chosen
words.
In his opening remarks Father
McDermott laid particular stress
upon the importance of the mothers
and fathers instilling into their sons
eligible for duty that love of cOun-
try which should be present in every
American. He urged that they show
today by their attendance to the reg
istration booths that they stand
ready to fight, and if need be, to lay
down their lives in defense of the
red, white and blue. He continued:
Father McDermott's Speech.
'Who can doubt that our country

For, from whatever point we regard
her, she offers us the sweetest and
tenderest incentives to love; she is
the blessed spot of our birth, she
guards our cradle, our home, the
dear scenes and pastimes of our
childhood, the sad headstone under
which repose the bones of our father
and mother; she is the sweet bond of
a family of brothers and sisters that
speak the same language, follow the
same customs, that share with their
whole heart in our joys and in our
hopes. Our country is a sublime

Tallahassee Bureau,
Pensacola Journal

Tallahassee, June AFTER hold
ing up the general appropriation bill
since Friday, threatening to veto it,
Governor Cats today relieved the
tension by approving the bill, though
he vetoed certain sections. This pre-
negative has been upheld by the SUI
preme court, and applies only to ap-
preparation bills. Sections vetoed re-
late to the salary of Don c. McMul-
len, railroad commission counsel,
leaving it discretionary with the
commission as to amount. Other sec
tons stricken out curtailed expendi
tares Of defective agencies. The
message accompanying the veto is
lengthy one, going into great detail.
After futile efforts by the legisla-
ture to change laws so as to place
the appointments of shell fish com
missioner in the hands of tho COM
missioner of agriculture, thereby
continuing 7. r. Hodges in office, J.
A Williams, of Gainesville, received
his commission from the governor
today as shell fish commissioner.
Mr.. Williams is credited with being
the father of the original shell fish
law, and is an experienced fishing
man. There is a bill pending in the
governors office cutting the salary of
the commissioner to $500, but it is
believed that this will be vetoed, as It
is said to have been passed after
remark was credited to Mr.. Williams
that he would refuse the appoint
ment if the salary was reduced.

Over Ten Million Men
Take Part in Suprerf
Adventure Today.
ALL BETWEEN 81
AND 81 CALLED
Only Present Military Ser
vice Exempts-Each Man
Serve Where Qualified.

Washington, June 4.-The United
States stands on the eve of it's
greatest adventure in free govern
ment-the arming of the whole ma
ton for war that the world NAV be
made safe for democracy.
Tomorrow is Registration Dav,
when, under the call of President
Wilson, every man who has reached
or passed his twenty-frst birthday
and has not passed his thirty-frst
will step forward to make good the
presidents word that "a nation has
volunteered in mass" in the battle for
freedom throughout the world.
In every city and town throughout
the land, in every village and hamlet
that vast machinery which is the
fundamental symbol of free govern
ment-the electoral system of de-
mOcracy-is ready to record the de-
cision of a hundred million citizens
that German autocracy is an outlaw
against civilization and must perish
by force of arms.
No partisan division appears in
tomorrow's registration. All that
has been cast aside, and when the
record of the days achievem mt
comes back to Washington tomorrow
night, it will say that the Youthful
manhood of the nation numbered ia
millions is ready.
Only Service Exempts.
Absolutely no man between the
ages prescribed, white or black, sick
or well, married or single, native or
alien, is exempt from registering
unless he is actually now i'm the
army, navy, the national guard or
naval militia. To register is not to
be drafted. The drafting and the
exemptions come later.
The nation has willed that none
shall fail to register himself. There
is no escape from that duty of citi-
zenship and a prison sentence with
no alternative of fine faces those who
may seek to evade it. Nor will the
coward, who prefers disgrace and i'm
prisonment to the chance that he
might 90 with the fighting men to
the front, find safety in Jail. He will
still be liable for military service
when his imprisonment ends. Every
loophole for the shirker has been
closed.
Ten Million Expected.
Until the record comes in, no one
can say how many millions this first
military census will produce. The
census bureau has estimated that
there are 100000 men between the
ages specified. 1t is only an esti-
