AMERICAN ARMY
TContinued From Page One. I

complain that we have not done more
yet we have done in one year, twice
as much as they thought We could dc
in two years.
1.-The army is growing so rapidly
and it's needs are so urgent that the
efforts heretofore made will be small
in comparison with those of the next
twelve months The army will prob
ably have between 100000 and 500
900 men before the end of the next
fiscal year
Our military law has been amend
ed, giving the president authrity to
call additional increments of men
from time to time. IS needed. 1t has
also been amended to permit him to
register and classify all men that reach
the age of 81 years. We now have
100000 men in the army.
100000 in Seven Years.
1.-THE men between the ages of 81
and 81 years in 1917 have been classi
fed, and there remains in class l ap
proximateiy 100000 men physically
At, not called. The class Of 1918
which will be registered this summer
will add another million, making a
grand total of 100000, without call.
ing classes 2, 3, or 5, containing
nearly 100000, and without calling
the boys from Is to p, 100000 more
eff the war lasts until 1924 there
will be added 100000 more men. The
potential man power Of America. for
a seven year war, therefore. may be
conservatlvely estimated at 100000
fighting men of recognized military
age-this cut of a population Of 1885,
100000"

BEARISH INFLUENCE
ON CORN MARKET
lBy Associated Pressl

CHICAGO, May 23-Prospects that
the crop movement would increase as
soon as planting was completed had
bearish influence today in the corn
market. Favorable weather for plant.
ing tended also to ease prices. Some
large commission houses were prom
inent sellers and the market was poor,
ly supported. After opening un-
changed to &c up. with July 141s to
IAN and June not quoted. the mark
ct underwent a decided sag and then
showed something of a rally.
Oats reflected the weakness OF corn.
Some expert buying was noted, but
the amounts were small. Opening
prices, which ranged from 70 to is
lower, with July SSH were followed
by additional losses and then a little
upturn.
Declines in the hog market carried
down provisions. Demand lacked vol
ume.

In some states the demand for
farm labor has taken an impera-
tive form. Oklahoma, through
its Council Of Defense, has estab-
lished what is virtually a draft
of every able-bodied male be-
tween the ages of fifteen and
sixty years. 1t has pledged
them to do at least two weeks of
farm work during the summer
or fall. Kansas, through its
commercial clubs andotherorgan-
izations, has made a statewide
effort of the same kind and ex-
poets every ble-bodied citizen
banker, merchant, minister or
lawyer-to prove his patriotism
! by spending at least two weeks
in the harvest fields.
