cape the army draft and remain at home enjoy not only immunity from the risks and dangers of war but also receive opportunities for advancement and. financial betterment which would in many cases be practically unattain- able in times of peace.
 The youth who go to the front should by all means be granted an opportunity to make something in a financial way. at least comparable with what they will lose by lending their services to the country in its hour of danger. If it should be their fate to be drawn to the colors they will have to give up practically every thing that life holds dear for m all ternative existence of trial, hardships and danger and are undeniably en- titled to a greater reward than SIS per month and the glory of serving their country.
 Congress should provide liberal pay to both our military and naval forces during the entire period of active ser vice. It is manifestly unjust to pick out few men and force them 10 bear the burden of war, while millions of others who have escaped the draft are left to enjoy greatly enlarged op- portunities, not a few of which will be created by the absence of their less fortunate brothers, without offering them at least fair wages for their services.

SHOULD RECEIVE MORE PAY.

The recent proposal to increase the pay of the private soldier during the war period is one that will commend tself to every person who has devoted a few minutes thought to the subject.
 The pay of the American soldier is at present considerably more t;!4n is paid to the troops of other nations. France, for instance pays the humble pllou an annual sum approximating $20. Germany s3s. Spain s53, Italy $7o, England $S9, Austro- Hungary and Japan devote the munificent total of sS per annum to payment of their { private soldiers while Russia. prior l to the revolution gave the awkward :, moujiks forming the bulk of her smlitary forces a sum equal to s4 in kthe coin of the United States. E AS against the rate of pay of the ktountries enumerated, the $1S0 per syear paid the American trooper ap-
 
 IS q pitifully small sum at best, and especially so in time of war when the men are called upon 10 give the ut- most of human exertion and possibly their lives in guarding the welfare of their country.
 Now that the old volunteer system has been superseded by the draft. there is all the greater reason that the government should provide more liberal pay to our military and naval forces.
 In time of war. the minimum pay of the common soldier should not be less than $500 per year. The peril to his health and life and the loss of opportunities are surely great enough contributions to the country to en- title him to an increase of pay during the time he Is compelled to serve the flag. Probably four fifths of the young men who will compose the new army h''A iNthfC V JOpo tH%iI pay Htdiiy double the forty odd dollars required to bring the present salary of the private soldier up to the suggested $500 per annum, while serving the government. Such a sum is not too much by any means.
 Under present conditions the men are called upon to abandon the or dinary avocations of life, to sacrifice their opportunities and risk life and limb for sum that is no more than Il mere pittance at best. After the period of enlistment Is over they are compelled to return to private lIso handicapped In many ways by their service for their country and arc also required .o help to pay during the remainder of their lives for the costs of the war to which they have ai- ready made the greatest contribution that man can make.

Additional assurance of adequate
passenger train service for the Pa

Passenger Traffic Manager Charles S.
Fee of the Southern Pacific. who re-
turned from the advertising conven-
tion of the company at Del Monte.
"The war apparently has had no
effect in reducing the demands upon
our passenger equipment" said Mr..
Fee. "Our monthly reports show that
a gratifying increase in travel, as
well as a continuance of earnings
of through trains. This can be at
tributed to general prosperity and the
increasing interest of the country in
the great West.
Despite the demands made upon
us by the government. and the un-
usual freight movement. we have been
able to take care of the needs of the
travelling public. 1t is our intention
to continue our passenger serviC g
about as at present as long as the
public makes full use of our trains
and equipment"
