viii Young Men be Drafted
For Navy.

Secretary Daniels has asked Con-
gress to authosize the enlistment Of
more men for the navy and the out
look at present is that recruits will
be wanted in large numbers
within the year. The question arises
will the selectmen, or these coming
within the draft age, be used for
the navy?
They will not, according to naval
officers who have made unofficial
statements and forecasts.
The navy is a popular branch Of
service and the quota can easily be
filled by volunteer enlistment, they
claim. Therefore men eligible on
the draft will be used in the army
exclusively.
Many selectmen are partial TO the
navy and some of them are best fit
ted for this branch. Those not
needed for the current national army
quota, even though they be in class
number one, may enlist in the navy
through their local boards when the
board will certify their numbers are
so low that they arenot needed to fill
the current quota.
Recruiting Officers do not know
how long this arrangement will con-
tinue. Even now only a limited
number are being enlisted each week
10 weekly being the allowance foI
Mississippi. Selected men who de
lay may find themselves barred from
the navy.
Men reaching the age of 81 years
since June 9TH are admitted without
question, provided they pass physi
cal requirement. Since these mel
will be forced to register in the near
future many of them are seeking en-.
llstment in the navy.
A waiting list is being kept al
the recruiting stations in Mississippi
When the weeks quota has been
filed the names of other applicants
are listed and they are taken il
order.
Men desiring information regard
ing the opportunities offered by the
lavy should write to the Ieeruitine
stations which are located in Jack.

RECORD REPLIE S
In Woodbridge Talk, Tells McDer1nitt
He VIII Not Debate


WOODBRIDGE, June 26;--A pep
perry reply to Lawyer Frank II. Nc
Dermftt Of Newark, who had Just
called down George i. Record for not
inviting him to joint debate in his
tent, was one OF the features of the
speech made last night by Record,
candidate for the Republican United
States senatorial nomination, in his
tent campaign in Middlesex county.
Assemblyman o. Bell Close Of Es-
sex former Assemblyman James G..
Blauvelt OF Passaic, and Col. John H.
Adamson, campaign manager, were
again with Record at their meeting
last night, at which government own
ership Of railroads and coal mines
was again advocate
Answering Frank H McDermitt,
who with AEsemblyman Alexander
Simpson is running for the Demo-
cratic United States senatorial nomi-
nation, Record said: II have read in
ter addressed TO me by Frank M. Nc
Dermitt, that Mr.. McDermitt Is a
candidate for the Democratic United
States senatorial nomination. He asks
me why / have not challenged him
and A semblyman Alexander Simpson,
who Is also a candidate for the Demo-
cratic nomination, to meet me IN
joint debate In my tent campaign. He
refers to the fact that have asked
Governor Edge and United States
Senator Baird to discuss questions
with me and to debate with me, and
he claims that he and Mr.. Simpson
.are entitled to similar invitations.
There are various reason why I
have not included Mr. McDermitt in
my invitation. In the first place l
never knew he was a candidate. The
second reason is that in my tent the
! discussion is confined to principles.
gather from Mr.. McDermitt's letter
that he is not running upon any prin-
ciples whatever, except that his
eulogy of United States Senator Baird
might lead to the inference that he
! intends to represent on the Demo-
cratic side the same corporate mon
opolies that Mr. Baird represents on
the Republican side.
THE appropriate thing at the
present time seems to me would be
for Mr.. McDermitt to conflne his ef-
forts to obtaining the Democratic
nomination. while 1 devote my ener
gies to obtaining the Republican
nomination. His challenge at this
time should be directed to his COM
petitor in the Democratic primaries.
just as my challenge will be directed
to my opponent in the Republican
primary. After the primary each
party will have its own champion, and
then it will be time enough for the
two party nominees emerging from
these primaries to face each other
and issue challenges for a debate II
they so desire"
