Must Train Whole Nation.
Explaining the reason for conscription.
President Wilson says:
The power against which we are
arrayed has sought to impose it's will
upon the world by force. To this end
it has increased armament until it has
changed the fas Of war. In the sense
oxx1nI NO =
armies there are no armies in this
struggle. There are entire nations
armed. Thus, the men who remain to
till the soil and man the factories are NO
less part of the army than is in France
than the men beneath the battle flags.
1t must be SO with us. It is not an army
that we must shape and train for war: It
is nation. To this end our people must,
draw close in one compact front against.
common foe. But this cannot be if
each man pursues private purpose.
All must puruse one purpose. The
nation needs all men but it needs each
man, not in the field that will most please
him, but in the endeavor that will best
serve the common good Thus, though
a sharp shooter pleases to operate trip
hammer for the forging of great guns.
and an expert machipist desires to march
with the flag, the nation is being served
only when the sharp-shooter marches and
the machinist remains at his levers. The
whole nation must be team. in which
each man shall play the part for which
he is best fitted. To this end CONGRESS
has provided that the nation shall be
organized for war by selection and that.
each man shall be classified for service in
the place to which ittshall best serve the
general good to call him.
