Washington, Feb. 23.-The second
big draft will not be made until in
June, according to the present plans,
it was learned from authoritative
sources at Provost Marshal General
Crowder's Office today.
The number to be included in the
call and the mobilization plans are to
be determined by the war council
al the war department it was officially
stated.
Unless some great emergency
arises no nationwide calls for men
will be made until the second draft.
To Provide Stream of Men.
The present plans provide for a
continuous stream of men moving
from civil life into army camps as
those who are in the camps continue
to move into France.
Comparatively small numbers of
men will continue to be ordered from
each district into camp just as those
who are ALREADY there proceed on
their journey across the sea.
The formal call authorizing the def
mite number will be made merely for
the purpose of filling the districts
quota. ...

Many men for special industrial calls
such as the recent ones for brick-layers
for work with Pershings forces win

believed. -.
For this purpose the names of men
of such industrial circles are being
compiled together with their address.
% Commencing today about seventy
five thousand men of the first draft
will begin to move into training camps
This mobilization will be completed in
five days. ....s..
On March 3rd, ten thousand more
men will be sent into camp leaving
only about six per cent, approximately
forty thousand of the first draft who
have not been indicted into the SER
vice.

They were crossing Washington

few nights ago. and 1t seemed that
mother and daughter were not perfect

apparel. At theater time the weather
was balmy. but when they came out,
1t had been raining and though there
was no shower at tho moment there
was much wind and daughters filmy
white silk skirt was blowing about in
dangerous fashion as she stepped OFF
the curb. She stopped repeatedly and
pulled the skirt down, then fairly ran
to the shelter of the Merchants Bank
building, leaving mother, who was a
bit plump, to roll along as best she
conld.

REVEALS FOES DIRE STRAITS
German Potter Reproduced by Bureau
OF Publicity Proof of Shattered
Morale OF Enemy.

A poster recently Issued by the inn
perial German government In an effort
to belittle the participation of America
In the war and thus strengthen the
morale of her people form the text of
one of the most striking pieces of litera-
ture that the bureau of publicity of
the war loan organization has prepared
for use in the forthcoming Fourth Lib
erty loan.
Toe center OF the poster is devoted
TO a drawing showing New York city
on one side OF the Atlantic and ire
mendous explosion on the other side,
probably somewhere In France. Two
sinking vessels are shown in the lane
,f travel between New York and
France. while I'm the ofing are two
U-boats securely afioat. Opportunity
Tor the German U-hoats ~ is the catch
line for this section OF the poster.
The lane of travel in which the boats
are sinking bears this inscription:
'America-Europe. Distance POO times
greater than from England to France
mainland" In corner of this sec
lion OF the poster are shown the names
Of Serbia. Montenegro. Italy. Rou-
mania. Russia and Belgium. They are
lined up in the order named under an
other exploding figure representative
NJ the European war. and the names
Of all the countries except Italy are
crossed out. Indicating that they have
been eliminated from the struggle by
the Huns.
The title OF the poster Is "Can
Americas Entry Make decision of the
War;" Integral sections of II attempt
to convince the reader that Americas
army cannot take the place of Rus
sia's withdrawn forces; that the Unit
ed States cannot build enough ships
to have any effect on the result of the
war, and that the U-boats will destroy
virtually all the ships that America
can build when those ships at
tempt to cross the ocean.
Two millions OF the booklets have
been printed and will be distributed
in various parts Of the country. par
ticularly IL theaters where Liberty
Lonn speakers take the book as their
text.
Every effort Is made In the wording
and the illustrations of the poster TO
minimize and ridicule the efforts of the
United Suites In the war. striking
example of this is found In the figure
Of Uncle Sam, who is pictured as a
cadaverous individual who wears an
American nag with nine stars and five
stripes around his plug hat and smokes
a long-stemmed cob pipe. He also ap'
pears to be wearing spats or dancing
pumps.
The enormous figure of a Russian
| soldier is the first object on the poster
to strike the eye. He stands with
hands In his overcoat pockets, indica'
tive of the fact that he Is through
fightIng. Beside him stands Uncle San
