Let's Win the Var
 M Nineteen Nineteen

And now General Crowder has asked for registration of the new draft by September 5th That day is just a month distant Much must be done before the machinery of the draft can make these new men avail able A precious month or more was lost when the war department blocked draft leg islation proposed before congressional re- cess. But now the new draft bill has been introduced Tn congress and the nation will insist upon prompt action upon this bill. Class one men of the first draft will be used up this month and weekly registrations will be required of the boys coming of age to fill the September quota for overseas duty. This column cannot see any good reason why class two of the first draft should not be called upon for at least part of monthly quota. But that is not the point. If the war department officials wish to call only class one men from any draft, well and good, they ought to know best. And now we must hurry and worry to get the new draft bill passed and in working order to supply men. If it had been passed before congress adi burned we could have saved this strain. It provides 5000, ,000 men from IS to 2l and from B to 45. It Is good measure and should have been enacted months ago. Why should the boys of the land carry all the burden of war. The older men are entitled,to their chance. Of the older men 3,000,000 of class one will be available at once from this second draft Thousands of these dodged behind petticoats after war was declared and thous- ands more are simply waiting for the call, not caring to give up work and home and business until actually demanded by their country Now that the grim deadliness of the war is coming home to us and the enormity of the task looms ahead, it is ex- pected that there will be fewer seeking ex- emption than before.
 This delay in enacting the new draft law only makes the plainer that fatal and allur- ing error of so many public men of the allied nations in understanding the size of the job ahead. have 100000 men now; we need 100000 more by spring, and we will need 100000 more before the campaign of 1919 Is at an end. The more men we can arm and send abroad in the next twelve months the more quickly we can bring the war to an end. We ought to prepare NOW for this job If 100000
 
 Rhine next year, then 6,000,O00 ought to be able to cross that famous stream. The simple, practical and cheaper way to win is to win as quickly as possible. Foch's smash with quarter of million of Amer ican troops opened Washington's eyes to the possibilities of next year and they quit fiddling and dwadling and putting off of the raising of the draft age If Foch can pass from defense to offense with quarter of million Tanks he ought to be able to smash em with 100000, and we plan to give him 6,000,000 to bridge the Rhine The next five months in legislative hall and executive office and shipyard and shop and mine and mill and training camp and loco motive cab will tell just what America can do to get ready to win the war next year
 The slogan in these United States for the next five months should be- Let's win the war in nineteen-nineteen.

We are advised by the Office of
Farm Management of the State

that q company in Denver is put

Book for farmers. This firm is
trying to scare the farmer into buy

sent that it Is government pro

that government agents are after
farmers who are trying to evade the
income tax The statement is made
that Uncle Sam required every far
mer to keep an accurate record OF
all receipts and expenditures. This
statement is. OF course. untrue.
