iation. No volunteer army hastily
assembled in an emergency could pos
sibly meet a crisis of that kind. Liber-
ated by Russian detection, literally
millions of German troops would be
free to operate in France. If we were
unready to meet them there and take
part which we have solemnly assum-
ed, our declaration in favor of human
ity and civilization would become only
a CHASTITY jest.
Universal service c~ontemplates the
Immediate creation OF an efficient army
of half a million men. With the ut
most expedition. this force could not
be made ready for service before next
winter. After that, under the system
proposed, it would be followed syste-
matically at regular intervals by
other armies of equal size, all trained
and equipped. Let those who in sheer
obstinacy adhere to the haphazard
volunteer idea tell US, if they can. how
thew are going to meet this demand
for one great army after another and
how are they to supply the Inevitable
waste Of carnage and disease.
Nations nowadays that make war
easily or. neg1igently are overcome.

rah-beys methods, hit or miss, do not

Nations nowadays that levy war in

with all their strength are doomed to
a sad awakening that may come too
late. Nations nowadays tht will not
learn by the yicissitudes of others sim
ply invite the FOOLS discipline which
the school of experience never fails to

take no chances in an enterprise free
