THE NEW DRAFT AGES.

The proposed draft ages of eigh-

high as they can be made without
losing sight of the efficiency demand

above, say, thirty-six would be used
in the active fighting lines, even
should they happen to be single.
1 There az are RhysSa IS Tery severe ne
years." but the fellows who "go over
the top" invariably are in the early
years of manhood-and very often
below twenty-one.
The main object, we are told, in
extending the draft age SO high n is isl to
troll of the labor situation. The
work or fight" order can be extend
ed and made more effective. Besides
everything will be under the direct
control of the president, who will in
dictate the ages of registrants for ac-
tive service as occasion demands,
though the actual authority may ap-
pear to be vested in the provost
acknowledgement. In the draft ma,
chinery it is certain that this general
is not coming to weighty conclusions
without first ascertaining the wishes
OF the president.
For instance, if the new manpower
bill becomes law, and the president
believes that men up to thirty-six
should be indicted into the service,
the provost marshal-general will
give the order; and il at the same
time the president DEGREES that men
from thirty-six to forty-fve must be
engaged in productive employment,
as distinguished from non-essential
employment, the provost marshal
general will proclaim the fact.
The exigencies of the present great
war are such that we may. be sure
that every man up to forty-five-and
above, for that matter-can be en-
ployed directory There is no reason
why men up to thirty-one, as at pres
ent, must work or fight, while those
above that age can, if they wish, loaf
or stand in the way of those who
work or fight. The new scheme will
not only insure, sufficiency Of class
1 registrants, but will classify our
entire manpOwer on a Win-the-War
basis.-St. Joe News Press.

SHIFTING THE BLAME in
GERMANY.

The German parties are engaged
in violent controversies oyer the
question of who is responsible for
Americas entrance into the war.
The Liberals say that the Pan
Germanists brought us in by unre-
stricted submarine warfare, and the
latter asserts in reply that no mat
ter what the direct cause, America s
entrance into the war was certain.
We may be sure that had Ameri-
ca not sided with the allies, she
would have lost her soul: Had we
stood by and let others fight our bat
ties; had we not taken issue for de-
mocracy, for humanity, our nation
would have proved itself unworthy OF
its heritage. It is a question Wheth-
ton to enter the war is realized by
the Pan-Germanists who give this
excuse, but we will have to make
them see it later. The quarrel be-
tween the German parties is in it.

cere compliment that has. yet been
paid to the valor and effectiveness
