GIRLS MAY BE CONSCRIPTED
Germany Considers Training to Match
Boys Military Service.


Plans for general conscription Of
in Germany, and there Is a general
feeling that girls, as well as boys,
will be compelled to undergo n regular
period of training corresponding to
the German youths service in the
army. The service proposed for girls
Is not military but civil. II is pro-
posed that all women should, prefer
ably at the age of seventeen, be taken
from their homes and compulsorlly
"trained" either in profession, u
trade or in household duties.
The characteristic German division
between rich and poor is maintained
in the project. Girls of the upper
classes are to be trained in special
institutions; poor girls will go to fac
tories or be placed in private house
holds, where their employers will give
them trife of pocket money and
make a contribution to the state.
The idea meets with wide commen-
datlon in the German newspapers, but
one English critic notes that there
is some difference between male con-
ScriptiOn, which puts man into a
regiment run by and for shc state,
and female Conscription, which
makes girl work without wage for
the profit of private individuals. The
latter cannot with accuracy be called
anything but slavery
