= r EMBERS Of a local draft board in New York city
NJ have petioned the president provost marshal gen
era secretary Of war, and others to so modify the
seectve draft law that unmarried without dependents
may be called into service ahead Of married and others
with dependents irrespective OF their order Of liability as
shown by the drawing at Washington.
No order Of the president would suffice to put such
measure effect Of It could be authorized only by
congressional amendment to the SeectlYe draft law ana
such an amendment could be secured prior to the
sembng Of congress December by which time the last
Of the first draft VIII be in cantonments training for sery
ice IN France.
The petitioners have conceived good idea. The men
without wives children ought to first If It then
were necessary to call married men into service II could oe
done. II NOT so much the better Especially WOuld II DC
better If married with children could be spared from
draft they felt sufficiently the urge of patriotism
and financially able to leave their families for war
service they could and would volunteer Otherwise they
ought remain home. Aside from the question Of hnan
cal dependency children need their fathers quite as much
as they need their mothers Neither alone accomplish
complete parenthood The histories Of delinquent children
furnish abundant proof Of this fact.
All through this first draft have been treated to the
spectacle Of men parting from wives and little to 60
and the death usk while able young men with
no family obligations remained and filled the
business positions Of those taken into the army The sua
ton grotesque and wrong fundamentally The young
to blame Those who have been physically dis
qualified are Of course immune from criticism and those
awaiting orders equally immune for they awaiting
call in the order Of their draft liability The point Is that
order Of liability ought to take into consideration other
things than lottery The unmarried ought to have
first liability, and particularly the unmarried who not
contributing TO the support of parents other dependents
This point would stand if as the seective service
law evidently contemplated had been drafted who
had dependents Because of shortage Of many dis
trts however coupled with the imperative need for
listing the required number great many draft boards
stretched the law the extreme limit They held for
every man. regardless Of his dependents unless
probable that the dependents would become public charges
starve without him II they could scmp along through
any Of prvations their prOvder held for service
Some draft boards had the teery to tell applicants
for exemption that the army pay Of $50 month SUI
cent to for dependents, proposition patiently ab
SUD- though It somewhat encouraged by the provost
marshal generals office. Many drafted IS In service
