EXHAUSTS GLASS 1 BACKED BY WAR APPROPRIATION
 OF IS MILLIONS NEXT CALL IS
 FOR 233,0o0 MENU. s. NOW IN
 EARNEST.
 That the United States is in earnest about carrying on the war in Europe, and contributing everything neces- sary, both in men and money, is evil denced by developments that have come to light in the National capital since the return home of Secretary Baker from the front. Congress has been asked to appropriate fifteen mil lions of dollars to carry on the war for the next fiscal year. The appro- priation for the year just closing was six millions, and this increase of near ly two-thirds for the next fiscal year is indicative that the government Is now in dead earnest, and realizing that we are in the war to finish, pro poses to make ample provision for bringing the issue to a successful termination. a Nor is it money alone that the U. Is. is now contributing to the fighting forces in European countries. Sfmul- taneously with this request for an in- crease in the war budget to three times it's last appropriation comes the last call for drafted men during the month of May. This call is for 223.- 900 men to be drafted into the service and entrain to different cantonments during the five day period beginning May 25. These selectmen willb in their training camps by the first or June, and another formidable contin- gent will be made soldiers to battle the unspeakable Hun from the civiliz- ed world. This call has the ring Of sneeding up, and those who have deem ed the government slow in the past will have cause to change their minds. The sending of this additional quota of 233 GOO men to the camps, in addi- tion to the other calls already made during the present year, means that fully that number of trained men have gone to the front to make room for training these raw recruits.
 The statement is given out from Washington that the United States will have one million fighting men on the battle fields of Europe by July 4th. The last call indicates that msny thousands have sailed from Am erica, as camp room and equipment is now available for one and one half million more men for 1918. Arizona's Quota 1,7s4 Men. Of the last call Arizona's quota is 1.7S4 men, who will be inducted into | the service on the dates named above, and ne in tra;nins camps by June 1 4.
