VOLUNTEERS FOR ARMY UNDER
Is YEARS NOT WANTED

The minimum age limit for voluntary
enlistment in the United States Army is
fixed by Congress at Is years. There
have been so many applications for re-
leases from the Army of boys under this
age who have enlisted, that Adjt. Gen.
Henry P. Mccain has issued the following
circular letter:
''The large number of applications re-
ceived from parents and guardians Tor
the discharge of minors under ~ years OF
age, inclosing satisfactory evidence that
the soldier is under this age, indicates
the necessity of more care on the part OF
recruiting officers in order to avoid I'M
necessary expense to the Government
and annoyance to troops in the fleld In
the subsequent discharge of such men,
and to avoid placing blot for life on the
record of a boy whose offense OF mis-
statement of his age arises usually from
patriotic desire to serve his country.
thereafter no applicant under the
registration age will be accepted or en-
listed until he has proven to the complete
satisfaction of the recruiting officer that
he has reached the age of Is years. The
proof required will be (a) birth certificate,
baptismal record, or school certificate, or,
in case (a) is not available, 90 affidavit OF
parent or of guardian with legal evidence
of guardianship"

the navy. three in the army and two
others in France on other service.
Give of these, through their own let
tiers or those of their families, endorse
this law. Their voices speak to us, and
out of the fullness of their sacrlhces give
us heed.
Generous has been the response in
numbers. It is the splendid spirit of
these letters to which we wish partlc-
ularly to invite your attention. 1t re-
fleets as it should the spirit OF the peo-
pie of our State, who ask this law as
matter of patriotic necessity. II the
reasons set forth in our circular letter
addressed to the members of the legls-
lature appealed to them SO strongly, re-
cent developments in this State have
made these reasons ten-fold stronger
The evidence is all about us. 1t may be
had also from other letters which we
submit. 1t is also easily accessible to
Your Excellency through other channels,
respected citizens and the police authorl-
ties of the State.

Maine will enter on no untrled expert
ment. Seven States in the Union have

cation of this law by the nelghborlng
