HVIIilLE General Foch has been delivering his
M Tightening like blows to the retiring German
armies, we have frequently heard men ~
that those entering the military service now will
never get 10 see active service meaning that the
war will be over before their training could be
completed.
These statements. while they result in almost
all cases from an ovcr-supply of American optim-
ism, are highly dangerous and should be discour-
aged sharply. To encourage such u feeling rs to
throw serious obstacles in the way of the vast fur.

United States must make.

United States has been able 10 assemble its vast re-
-, irecs for war 10 the extent of placing five mil
lion men under arms, with n complete equipment
of war machinery on land and sea and in the air.
The goyernmest has done one of the most eff
ficient things since the war began IN providing the
Student Army Training corps. IN which students
equipped to enter colleges or technical or special
training schools, may proceed with their cduca-

competent military instruction. The new man

ton all young men over Is years of age. does not
interfere with the Student Army Training corps, or

rather encourages the special training and makes
II easier and more certain of success. by the ten
tative regulations thus far issued, the young man
who has registered may enter a student army
training corps by voluntary induction, or in adj
vance OF the calling of his draft number. lie goes
AT once into military training and at the same time
into special training which will fit him for some
branch of the technical work SO vital 10 the opera

Quite as important as either of these factors,
he is acquiring the kind of training which will
make him most useful to himself and to his country
in that critical period of reconstruction which will
follow the war.
No young man who enters an institution for
work in a student army training corps need feel
that he is cvading or even delaying his call into
active service. II he is competent and n hard
worker, he is probably ~hurrying the time when he
will be- able 90 serve his country in the field, and
he certainly will be able to serve more efficiently

A Poor Time for Jockeying

10th political parties are delaying the calls for
their respective conventions. each in the APP
- parent hope of gaining some advantage over
the other of position in the first set of nominations
made. Ii is the usual procedure of party commit
tees 10 set the date at the time u convention city
is selected. The democrats first adopted the policy
of delay and the republican committee followed
suit.
1t is a question whether either party will gain
amy advantage from this course, and if the dates
of the conventions are long delayed serious con
fusion may easily be- the result.
New Mexico puts into use this year. for the
first time in a general election, a modified form
of the Australian ballot. The machinery of the
election. from the nomination of candidates to the
casting of the ballots, is much more complicated
than ever before. The item of certifying tickets
and transmitting them TO the polling places,
alone will require considerable time and great care
to avoid mistakes which may invalidate an election
in n precinct or u county. If, as has been suggest
ed, either or both of the conventions be delayed
until the last legal hour or day for filing tickets
a serious confusion is possible which might easily
be avoided.
II is respectfully suggested that if the man
ayers of both parties will eliminate the tricks OF
the pre-conventiOn trade and concentrate ON an
earnest effort Ia nominate the very best material
available in both parties. for every position on the
tickets, any little advantage gained MS to which
convention is held first, will be wholly overcome
by the greater advantage Of universal public in.
iercs, and enthusiasm. This is a poor time for
political iockeying, either before or after a con
vcntion. .

The Student Army Training Corps Offers Young Men
A Splendid Opportunity for Service to the Nation

corps best for the man and for the nation, he
would not have established them.
-Four New Mexico institutions have been de
signated for units of the Student Army Training
corps. The State Agricultural college has had a
military training department for many years. The
whole equipment OF the Military academy at Ros-
well is military and it is natural that these institu-
tions should he designated. To these the Univers-
ity of New Mexico was added some time ago, aud
the school Of Mines at Socorro has now been added
10 the list.
With the status of enlisted men on furlough,
with pay before the draft number is called, and
pay and rations after the draft number is called
the Student Army Training corps offers to New
Mexico young men of Is years a wonderful oppor-
tunity for double training and double service to
the nation. Not one who can qualify for entrance
should overlook the chance.
