MEN WHO REACH 81 TO BE REG.
ISTERED.

WASHINGTON, January 6. =
Americas fighting is to be done by
Young men without families depend
emit upon their labor for support and
unskilled in necessary industrial and
agricultural work.
All men for the war armies still
to be raised by the United States Will
come from Class 1 under the new
selective service plan.
Provost Marshall General Crowder
announces the new policy in an ex-
haustive report upon the operation
of the selective draft law submitted
Thursday to Secretary Baker and
sent to Congress.
He said that Class 1 should pro-
vide men for all military needs OF
the country, and to accomplish that
object he urges amendment OF the
draft law so as to provide that all
men who have reached their twenty
first birthdays since June 5, 1917,
shall be required to register for
classification.
Also, in the interest Of fair dis
tribution of military burden he pro-
poses that the quotas of the states or
districts be determined hereafter on
the basis of number of men in Glass
l and not upon population.
Available figures indicate, the re-
port says, that there are 1,0OO,OOO
physically and otherwise qualified
men under the present registration
who will be found in Class 1 when all
ouestionaires have been returned and
| the classification period ends Febru-
Try Is.
To this the extension Of registra-
ton to men turning FL since June 5
of last year and thereafter will add
| 100000 effective men a year.
Class 1 comprises:
Single men without dependent
relatives; married men who have
families, who are dependent upon
habitually failed to support their
wives for support or not usefully en-
gagged. and whose families are sup.
ported by incomes independent OF
their labor; unskilled farm laborers
unskilled industrial laborers, regis
trants by or in respect Of whom nc
deferred classification is claimed OF

QUESTIONABLE and in respect of whom
no deferred classification is claimed
or made, and all registrants not in.
cluded in any other division of the
schedule
| Narrowed down under the analysis
of the first draft made in the report
the plan places upon unattached
single men and married men with in.
dependent incomes most of the
weight of military duty, for the ag'
gregate number of men in the Other
divisions of Class l is very small.
General Crowder finds that the first
draft surpassed the highest expecta
tons of the friends of the selective
service idea. He pays high tributt
not only to the thousands of civilian:
who gave ungrudging service to max
ing the plan a success, but also to The
high patriotism of the American
Ipeople as a whole.

DECEPTION OF GERMANY HALTS
ENhCE pkRTEv

LONDON, January 6.-Organiza
ton Of an army Of 100000 men,
ready to fight again with the allied
forces, may be Russia's answer to
peace Overtures of the Central
Powers.
The halt in the Russo-German
peace negotiations and indications
of German refusal to move the con-
ference to Stockholm have revived
universal discussion in Petrograd of
a resumption of fighting with
greatly reduced army.
Even the most radical Bolsheviki
and the most ardent peace advocates
have been aroused by the the Ger
man position. They declare a re-
sumption of hostilities is imminent
and express belief that it is impossi-
bic to organize and make effective
small army.
Indications are that the German at
titude is harmonizing domestic diff
ferences and is convincing Russians
that they must fight to save their
revolutionary principles.
Chairman Joffe, of the Russian
Peace Delegation, yesterday sent an
official telegram to the Chairman of
the German-Austrian, Bulgarian and
Turkish Delegations, saying the Rus
sian republic deems it to be neces-
sary to conduct further peace nego-
tiations on neutral soil and suggest
ing a transfer of the conference to
Stockholm. The telegram declares
replies to the message are expected
by Russia at Petrograd.
Articles 1 and of the Austro-
German terms submitted December
IL December 25 new style), the
message says, are in direct conflict
with the principles of self-definition
of nations insisted upon by the Rus
sian peace delegation and supported
by the Russian republic and the Gen.
trail Executive Committee of the Con-
gress of Workmen's and Soldiers
Delegates.
Articles 1 and of the Austro-
German terms, as cabled under a
Brest-Litovsk date by way of Berlin
last Sunday, covered the ending of
the state of war and evacuation of
occupied territory.
In Article 2, however, it was de-
clared the people of Poland, Lithu-
ania, Courland and portions of Es-
thonia and Livonia demanded indie
pendence and separation from Russia.
and that the German occupation of
Russian territory did not apply to
these districts, which include most of
the Russian territory captured by the
Germans.
The Bolsheviki Foreign Minister,
Leon Trotzky, declared the Govern
ment Of the Russian workers would
not consent to the German peace pro-
posals.
M. Trotzky's declaration was made
before the central committee of the
Council of Soldiers and Workmen's
Delegates during an address in which
he denounced in scathing terms Ger
many's hypocritical peace proposal.
Asserting that the Government of
Russian workers would not consent
to such conditions, he said if the Gen.
trail Powers did not agree to free dis
posal of the destiny of the Polish and
Lettish nations it would be urgently
necessary to defend the Russian
revolution. He said the needs of the
front would be satisfied, whatever
efforts might be necessary.
Representatives from all the fronts
who attended the meeting declared the
troops would defend the revolution,
but said bread and boots were neces-
sary.
