FORTY-SIX STATES RALLY
TO DEFENCE OF NATION

/ generally concede. Military men who
have studied the problem state that as
many as can be expected are coming
! forward. Too much emphasis cannot
/ be laid upon this activity at the pres
/ ent time. il is said, however. Reports
/ from some states are meager and in
some instances discouraging. Some OF
( the governors have been very active in
bringing home to young men the rea-
sons why they should respond TO the
/ call Of the country and showing them,
by proclamations, by speeches and pic
lures. the necessity for responding to
call to arms.
The full quota for the expanded reg
ular army has not been reached, and
many more recruits can be taken.
Therefore II Is urged that all local
councils of defense concentrate efforts
upon this work The frst-line men Of
the regular army, the navy and Ma
lional Guard should be volunteers. it
is said. Therefore the comparatively
few thousands still needed, as com
pared with the immense population Of
the nation and the great armies OF
drafted men who will be called into
training soon should be easily OBJ
tanned That is, IL young men have it
properly explained to them why they
should enlist.
Merchant Seamen Sought.
Naval classes are being organized In
several states and encouragement Civ
en- young men to attend nautical
schools, 50 rs TO be the better prepared

Illinois and Massachusetts report ex-
cellent progress in such branches OF
the national service. So popular is the
study ia Chicago that night school
has been opened. Classes are organ
lied into crews and given training in
navigation. gunnery signaling, radio
marine engines and first aid. The Chi
cago Yacht club will provide means for
practical work on Lake Michigan this
summer for hundreds of such crews.
