That the total number Of drafted
men in Wisconsin may not be over
| 1000, because Wisconsin already has
recruited more men than its quota. is
the beliefot many persons. According

navy, marine and other branches OF the

an army Of 10000 men The present
| lighting force of the United States Is
something less than 100000; so it can
be seen that Wisconsin's contribution
is greater in proportion than other
states.
