UNMARRIED MEN PREFERRED

President Wilson's letter to Secretary of War Baker, expressing preference that the first draft army of 6s7,O0O should be made up far possi- ble, of unmarried those whose wives and children dependent upon them for support, in line with previous intimations of the Presidents views.
 Incomplete statistics show that of the married drafted about 80 per cent. have claimed exemp- ton that ground. Many of these claims have been dsregarded instructions from Provost Mar shal General Crowder, and to comply with Presi- dent Wilson's suggestion would necessitate read justment of some of the lists
 Reopening of the draft, of with married practically exempt. would the rapid using up of the available material, and by the time the second contingent of 6S7.000 is secured there would be but little than enough of the 9OOOOOO con scripted to furnish third contingent of unmarried qualified men to make up reserve force
 Meanwhile there will have become of draft age, q. large number of young men. To include these in the army amendment to the draft law will be necessary.
 Forseeing this necessity for should the be prolonged than year from June l. 1917 S. B. M. Young has prepared statement given out through the National Association for Uni versa Military Training in which he advocates an amendment to the draft law calling up all young men between 19 and 21 for registration June 5, 1918
 Gen. Young estimates this would give 3,00O.0OO registrants. from whom 1S20000 would qualify for service. Practically all of them would be unmar ried they would just about finish the necessary reserve of three men for every one sent to the front.
 Of course everyone hopes the war will be ended before 5, 191S But it is necessary to prepare long before army is needed, learn ing to our cost, and every possibility that we will need to send several million to France before through
 Statistics of the Civil War show that more than onehalf of the engaged in that struggle were between IS and 21 years of when they enlisted Gen. Young concludes that if very large number of soldiers to be required must at least train the of 19 and 20 in order to have them ready when they reach 21 The permanent buildings that are being erected for the various cantonments will provide ample training quarters for the fas, as they called

 Americans have yet appreciate the i'm portance the part their country is destined to play in the world conflict, but there is no doubt on that strength of the United States by it's strength by the strength of France, of Italy, of Britain and of all these nations combined-it draws very comfort ing assurances from the fact that the republic has entered the struggle to make the world safe for democracy"
 Englands ministry recently declared America would, in good time, give material aid of overwhelming power which will make end of all doubts as to the completeness of the victory of the Allies Maj Gen. Frederick B. Maurice, spokesman for the British statement that "he United States is today the gen eral of the Entente" With that reserve, ,' he said i've may look the fourth year of the war in the face with entire confidence
 That which the United States has accomplished to this tme-and the total of achievement, de- spite pickering in some quarters, is impressive-is small by comparison with that which the Entente expects will be done during the next twevemonth and, if necessary, the twelvemonth following. The potential power of this nation has not been mobilized as yet It still is passing through the by the It has only partially created the great machine with which the Kaiser is to be beaten to his knees Day by day week by week and month by month, the work of co-ordinating the republics will be continued until all the of this popuous and nconceivably wealthy country will be employed in the prosecution of the struggle against General European autocracy
 Germany evidently does not appreciate the size and might of the opponent it has raised up for it. self but the Allies know what strong friend has entered the arena to champion their cause Premier Rbot of France recently made the unqualified state ment that he based his hopes of ultimate and com plete victory on the fact that the Entente would have Americas immense assistance.
 It is idle to expect that the United States will exert great pressure the foe this year It's strength be felt for the first time by Ger many in the spring early summer of 1918. But every month thereafter the pressure will increase. AS Germany's power declines, that of America will increase until the wall of Teutonic resistance will be preached. Then the will end
 This is the view entertained by the statesmen and soldiers in Allied countries There is reason to believe it is the view entertained by Washington. Hence the extent of Americas plans, contempat- ing they do the raising of the biggest army ever assembled under the Stars and Stripes. 'The United States today is the general of the Entente ' In due time that reserve" will bring autocracy to it's knees in it's last European stronghold

COUNTRY WITH THE PRESIDENT
Chicago Herald)

William Jennings Bryan said that in travelling about the country he has found that the desire to support the government in is almost universal. MT Bryan came to Chicago to deliver a Chatauqua address.
 "The reason why different impression may be gained the Nebraskan added, lis that the newspa- pers publish the exception rather than the rule. For instance, dispatch may report unpatriotic utter ance by in town, but nothing is said about 999 others who patriotic. Of course it is the duty of the papers to call attention to unpatriotc utterances in order that those guilty may be pun ished but the fact that they do not give the number of the patriotic may lead to false impression to public utterances find the desire to support the government practically universal
 There can be but end the war. and that is the overthrow of Germany"

of their great objectives in the is reasonable to expect.

 All observers agree that the Italian army IS one of the best fighting machines in the world today, so far it's personnel is concerned. It has lacked heavy artillery and airplanes, well as certain sup plies, but these to have been furnished by the French and English.
 The Italians have ambitious schemes for control Adratic and for territorial concessions else where, and if they maintain their present speed their demands will be hard to refuse.
