The War Department today had no
announcement to add to it's terse bull
letin Of last night. which merely said
Maj. Gen. Pershing would lead a divi-
sion Of approximately $4,000 regulars
abroad "at as early a date as practi-
cable"
But President Wilson's statement ex-
planning his reasons for not accepting
at this time Col. Roosevelt's offer of a
division. contained a phrase which has
attracted much attention. and suggest
ed the possibility that American troops
may go to Belgium-to help right the
wrong which turned the world against
Germany.
Tho President explained that the reg
ular army officers whom the colonel
wanted to take with his division were
needed for ''the much more pressing
and necessary duty of training regu-
lar troops to be put in the field. in
France and Belgium as fast as they can
be got ready"
So far as is. known that was the first
omcial mention of putting American
troops in Belgium, and the sentimental
value OF sending troops bearing the
American flag to the violated soil of
the little country in whose behalf all
humanity has been aroused has quickly
been recognized. Those who favor 1t
point out that since the United states
entered the war to defend humanity
against German aggression its troops
could be no better employed than in
behalf Of the most outraged OF all hu-
manity.
serv1ceab1e In Belgian Line.
OF course. American troops would be
used otherwise. too. but in taking a
place in the Belgian line they would re-
lease British, and possibly French
troops for other points.
Whus this remains as very strong
will be given out as to the destination
Of the American troops or the use to
which they will be put. Neither will
any information giving a clue to their
time Of departure be given out, for
military reasons.
Neither will any Information be given
out as to the date or place OF departure
of Gen. Pershing and his staff. who will
precede the troops to Europe. Destina-
tions will also be withheld until troops
have been safely landed.
Preparations for sending Of the first
expedition OF regulars moved forward
swiftly today; but entirely without pub
1icity. except as to the participation of
the marines. q full regiment of which
was ordered abroad with tho regulars
to make good the First to fight" slo-
gan OF the CORPS 1t can be said author
proposes to give the troops every pos
sible advantage Of training and equip
ment to fit them for their task.
All military advisers have agreed that
additional training within sound Of the
guns at the front must be given TO
forces taken to the battlefields in
France before they took their places In
the line. The regulars Of the expedi-
ttonary force are certain to have that
training. In placing new divisions in
the line Of battle. Great Britain has
followed the practice of accustoming
the men gradually to the work before
them. The first hundred thousand of
the Kitchener army was put in with
each battalion, fianked by veteran Brit
tsh or French troops until it found it
self.

Decisions Await Pershing.

Presumably Gen. Pershing will select.
in conference with French and British
officials when he reaches the scene of
action, the location for the American
training camps'and the part of the line
TO which American troops will later be
assigned will also be determined then
The first expedition probably, also, will
pave the way for the armies that are to
follow it as soon as they are ready.
The machinery to build those armies
was In full motion today. Early re-
ports indicated a tremendous stimula-
tion of recruiting both for the regular
army and the national guard as a re-
sult> of the announcement last night
and the publication Of the Presidents
proclamation fixing June as registra-
ton day for the selective draft army.
Mail trains leaving Washington last
night were laden as never before with
registration cards. enrolment blanks and
all the data necessary to register 10000
900 men for the new armies. The first
shipment went to state and municipal
officials in the far west and other most
remote parts of the country. A steady
flow of blanks for nearer states will FOL
low, and in six days every section of the
country will be fully supplied, giving state
officials week to study their task before
June 5.

The orders for the sending of regular
troops to France. the statement re-
Rarding Col. Roosevelt and the procla-

last night Immediately after he had
approved the war army bill. Contrary
to custom. there were no ceremonies
attending the signing of the bill The
President affixed his signature in the
presence only of members of the ex-
ecutive stan in the White House proper
and then sent it over to the executive
ofnces. From there the document went
to- the War Department, where the
proclamation was issued.
