Gov. Brough Urges
 Men To Volunteer

His Excellencey, The Hon. Charles H. Brough, Governor and Commander in Chief of the National Guard of our Common wealth, relying on the patriotism, loyalty and pride of every citizen within our beloved state, calls upon all Registration Officials. as the representives of the Sovereigns of the state of Ark ansas, to impress upon all men of military age the seriousness of the situation confronting us and appeal to them to volunteer with out delay for service in the com mon defense of our Nation, by joining the National Guard of of their Native State, whereby they will be enabled to serve along side of their own friends and kinsmen in companies raised in their own communities.
 Attention is especially called to the advantage and privilege in volunteering at this time for service with officers and men composing your State troops. men who are your friends. kins- men and companions.
 Men eligible for military duty who do not enlist in some branch of the Military service prior to June fifth, will be drafted. While it is just as honorable to be drafted. yet men drafted will have no choice in companies, regiments or even the branch of Military service to which they will be assigned hy the War De- partment.
 Men enlisting now in the State Guard have the opportunity to join the company and regiment in which they have acquaint- ances and friends, with whom they will associate during their entire service.
 Every County in our great State should be represented in our National Organization. and it is hoped that every County not so represented will at once take steps to organize a platoon or if possible company in order that each and every County in our beloved State will voluntar- fly contribute it's pro rata num- Der of men to our own State Troops, and thereby show our sister states and the world that the State of Arkansas will do its full duty.

 The Adiutant General.

The Crimes of Germany,

The world is not hostile to Ger many because it is unwilling that Germany should have a fair chance in the world, or because it had in the beginning any spe- cial love for the enemies of Ger many. When the war began it was a fair field and no favor with most of the neutrals. Ger many has alienated a dozen na- tions by the faithlessness, the brutality, the arrogant contempt for the rights of others, that it's government has displayed at ev- cry stage of the war. It has been it's own worst enemy; it has written its own condemna- tion in the eyes of the world; it has done it's best to convince ev- eryone that German domination in the affairs of mankind would be a calamity that civilization must avert, even if it perish in the attempt.
 The violation of Belgium and the footing and burning of Bel gian cities and French villages; the horror of the Lusitania and the atrocity of the submarine warfare, in which the murder of noncombatants and neutrals is cynically planned and coolly carried out; the spiteful destruc- tion of priceless memorials of the piety and artistic feeling of the human race; the invention of the Zeppelin raid and the poison-gas attack; the offenses- some of them nameless against the liberty and the honor of French and Belgian noncombat- ants: the Wanton and wicked desOlation of the evacuated country of the enemy; the delib- crate sinking of hospital ships; the Armenian massacres, which the Kaiser could have stopped by raising his finger those have one by one brought about a uni versal hardening of the worlds heart againt the government that can order such deeds.
 We long hope that the charges against the Germans were exag- gerated through passion and pre- judice. Here and there single accusations may be without basis. but the great outstanding facts are we'll known. Our own dip lomatic representatives resident abroad have told ts enough in their official reports to convince us that Germany makes war in defiance of the laws of decency and humanity that others nations recognize, that it considers the slow and painful progress that civilization has made as thing of no moment, thing to be ruthlessly sacrificed if it restricts German ambition. The Kaiser once ordered his soldiers to fight as the hordes of Attila fought and to make the name of Germ an dreaded as that of Hun was dreaded in the ancient days. They have obeyed him, but is it necessary to remind them that Attila and his hordes were not beloved among the civilized people of those early centuries? Neither can any nation that fash ions itself upon such a model ex- pect to prosper in the affections of mankind. Youths Companion

Ask Every Citizen To Aid.

Congress has passed law providing that on June 5 every male citizen between the ages of Fl and 3l shall report to the polling place in the voting pre- cinct where he resides and there register. Heavy penalties will be enforced upon those who fail to comply. The object of this registration is not to conscript all men between these ages for immediate service. It is esti- mated that there are 10000. GOO men subject to registration. The government must know at once what man-power it has to depend upon and must have some means of locating and classifying these men for the various kinds of service. It must have means of discrimi- hating so as to know, for eX- ample, what men should be left in agricultural work or the oc- equations, what men should be employed in munition factories and shipyards and what men should undertake military and naval service.
 In August or September 800. GOO men. or l in 20 of those who register, will be called to the colors and will begin to undergo training to make them effective soldiers. Later on other will be called. the number being deter mined by the duration of the war and it's magnitude.
 The President of the United States, the Department of War and the Governor of Arkansas have asked that registration day be made a National Holiday. which may be concerted into a magnificent demonstration of the unity and patriotism of our coun- try. President Wilson. in is- suing the proclama tiOn amour cing the date of registration. used these words:
 It is in no sense a conscrip- tion of the unwilling: it is rather selection from a nation which has volunteered in mass. It is no more a choosing of those who shall march with the colors than it is a selection of those who shall serve an equally necessary and devoted purpose in the in- dustries that lie behind the bat tie line.
 Speaking before the National D ef ense Conference recently. the Secretary of War said: All prejudice will be gone if. when this day comes. flags are floating from public and private build ings and bands are parading the streets, and the people of the cities and the country side are accompanying their sons and bro- thers and husbands of suitable age to the registration place in the feeling that here in Amer ica is the altar of free institu- tiOns. and that every man who is putting his name down is making an acceptable sacrifice"
 The Arkansas State Council of Defense urges all patriotic citi- zens and organizations in Arkan- sas to make arrangements at once to hold in all cities, towns and voting precincts of the State on June 5 public meetings where patriotic programs will be given. Meetings may be held in churches, school houses. or other convenient places. The initia- tive may be taken by any indi- vidual or organization. Time and place may be fixed according to local convenience.
 The program may scOnsist of band music. singing of national airs Aau raiainU roa0inU Of the

OI the war, tHe eVenlS IndI for.ed the United States to enter
 it, and the objects for which we are fighting. Every such ad- dress should emphasize the ne- cessity of subscriptions to the Liberty Loan. There are thou sands of people in Arkansas who are perfectly able to buy a bond for $50 or S100 or more who do not realize the necessity of float ing the loan. The banks of the State have risen to the occasion and will offer opportunity for buying bonds by small pay ments.
 It is suggested also that there be at each registration place a
 committes of ladies to serve luncheon to the enrolling officers, and to see that each man en- rolled has some evidence of the fact which will be apparent to passers-by. A small piece of red, white and blue ribbon. or
 the blue enrolment card. might be pinned on each man. Volun- teer committees to assist in get ting men to and from the reg istration places can also be of great service. Many people will doubtless donate the use of auto mobiles and hacks.
 The people of Arkansas, as
 yet far removed from the scenes of conflict, pursuing peacefully the daily routine of their lives.
 wishing only to be unmoleSted in the conduct of their affairs. and not having at hand the sour ces of information possessed by the United States Government. do not realize the magnitude of the crisis confronting the nation. We are not at war with Ger many because of the sinking of q few ships and the destruction of a few American lives. If that were the cause. We would have declared war immediately after the sinking of the Lusit- ania.
 We entered the war because the President and the Congress of the United States, whom we have chosen to direct our Gov ernment and conserve our na- tional interests, having at their means of securing in- formation not accessible to the private citizen, became absolute ly certain that the question this war is to settle is whether the world including America -i is to be free or is to be slave to Ger many; that a German victory over England and France would be followed, as certainly as the night follows the day, by an inn mediate attack on America. The question is: Shall we prefer to fight Germany after she has con- the Allies and has herself with all the resources of France and Eng land. including the British Navy, or shall we join while we may have help?
 Germany may he likened to an armed maniac, destroying life and property. who is being held by citizens whom he is trying to murder. Should another citizen a peaceful bystander, awaiting his turn at the hands of the madman, or should he at- tempt to subdue the maniac while there is yet time?
 The story of German aggres- sion against America is long and sordid. It includes the filling of a friendly country with spies there is good evidence that there are at least 100, % of these in the United States now; it includes the blowing up of factories and the murdarinp pf WOrkmen, at-
