tania, and, as court records and his
cablegrams later revealed, was or
ganizing a hireling gang of desper-
ate criminals to blow up ships in
American harbors and set fires in
American factories, and pushing for

Japan and Mexico into making war

These wrongs and outrages have

the American people, and the presi-
dents belief is we'll founded that 1.-THE

THOSE WHO SHIRK.

One thing that keeps the lives of
draft exemption boards from getting
monotonous is the vivid contrast pro-
vided by the different effects of draft
requirements on unencumbered young
men. One man yill walk 100 miles to
make sure he is doing his duty an
other will travel thousands to avoid
doing his. While some youths have
been found willing to undergo opera
tions that will make them unfit for
service, others have submitted of their
own accord to the expense and incon-
v~enience of surgery so that they may
not be barred from serving. Of two
young men in like circumstances, one
will cheerfully waive all claims to ex-
emption while another will go to alb
surd lengths to convince the officials
that he can not be spared.
Very likely it has occurred to the
draft officials that in this state of at
fairs lies the strongest possible argu-
ment for the selective draft. Most of
the men who are now willing to serve
might have been brought into the ma
tion's service without the compulsion
of the draft, but the shirkers would be
unassailable in their selfshness, and
their share of the national bur-
den would have been thrown to other
shoulders.
That is why a measure of forced
military service was necessary, and
that is likewise why the country will
undoubtedly resort, before peace
comes, to other forms of military
training. The same line Of demarca-
ton between patriotism and selfish
ness can be seen in observance of food
regulations, in response to calls like
those of the Red Cross and of the gov
eminent loans; in big business and
among the workingmen. The selfish
are always willing to shift their share
of, the common sacrifice to those who
are willing and eager to help. While
this continues there will always be an
element of injustice in v~oluntaryism.
