Draft Volunteers

New u. S. Ruling
Seven Centres Are Desig-
mated by War Department
for Recruiting

a complete reorganization Of the
methods of getting men Of draft ago
into the military service is under way
Tho preliminaries Of the new plan were
transmitted yesterday to the local
boards here, and details will be all
nounced shortly by Provost Marshal
General Enoch II. Crowder in an In
duction Manual.
Since volunteering for service in the
army was stopped on December Is tho
system of voluntary induction, which
turns exemption boards into recruiting
offices, has developed rapidly. A more
systematic scheme IS now to be sub
stituted. Tho volunteer system for
draft registrants still offers them a.
chance to get into tho navy and the
Marine Corps. provided their local
board will certify that they arc not
needed to fill the next draft quota.

Quaker Asks Aid
For French Towns
Absurd, He Says, for Amer
leans to Send Architects
to Rebuild Them

1T Is an lmpertinence Tor Americans
to talk OF rebuilding the devastated
region OF France" declared j. Henry
Scattergood, of the American Friends
service committee, in lecture at the
Friends meeting house, 221 East Fif-
teenth Street, yesterday.
He has recently returned from the
district that the French proudly call
ia France reconQuise" and others
refer to as the devastated area. He
gave several reasons why Americans
should not talk of 'such absurd thingo
as adopting French towns"
One Of the principal reasons, he
said, is that the French can do it bet
ter themselves. There is need Of
money, Of course, and there Americans
can help; but tho idea of sending
American architects and builders over
there. except to erect temporary homes
strikes Mr.. Scattergood as overzealous
to the point Of presumption, consider
ing that the BeauX Arts supplies archi-
tects for America.
"'The French committees can handle
the thing very well" he said. What
is tho use of forming little organza-
tions on this side to do it? And yet
we hear of womens colleges in Amer
lea deciding to save France. Send
money, by all means"
He said, however, that temporary
constructive work in France is impor-
tant. and told Of what the English and
American Friends have done along this
line, especially in setting up portable
houses in the ruined villages. With
lumber cut by Canadian forestry bat
talions in the Jura Mountains. he said.
the Friends. cooperating with the Red
Cross and other bodies. have built and
furnished a great many small houses.
The fact that he had been unable TO
verify single recent "atrocity" story
led Mr.. Scattergood to believe that the
Germans had changed their tactics,
aiming their "frightfulness" at prop
erty instead of at persons, but with
the Same object-to dishearten the
French. Both tactics had failed, he de-

Heated Discussion Follows
Move to Encourage War
Cabinet Plan
Pledge Is Toned Down
Delegates Decide That if
Board Is Necessary They
Will Support 1t

Resolutions advocating the ous;iny
OF Newton u, Baker as Secretary of
War in favor OF "a man who is ag-
gressively militant" created an uproar
yesterday at the annual meeting OF the
National Committee OF Patriotic So
cieties in the Hotel Aston. Fifty dele
gates, representing as many Of the
most prominent patriotic organizations
N the country, jumped to their feet
md excitedly Msailed or defended
Secretary Baker when Charles Stew
,rt Dawson, representing the American
Defence Society, presented resolu-
ion calculated "to encourage Senator
ham berlain in his fight for war cab
net"
Following babel OF heated discus
ion, it was decided that the delegates,
Is individuals, were unauthorized to
'ote for their organizations on the
'esolution. S. Stanwood Menken,
president of the National Security
,cague, thereupon offered modified
'esolution, which was accepted, as in
lividuals and not as delegates, by the
majority of the attendance. The de-
latured resolution, divorced entirely
rom politics." provided that "if it be
ourfd that additional members Of the
resent Cabinet or other Cabinets or
,ther commissions are desirable or
lecessary to the proper prosecution
nd successful termination Of the war
hey shall be instituted as prompt
= as possible, and that nothing of
oiitical afiiliation or any other cause
reason shall stand in the way Of the
reatest possible efficiency to that end"
Partisanship Assailed
at is crime to keep in Office Off
als who have been found incompc-
ent," declared Mr.. Dawson, replying to
no storm of opposition which greeted
is attempt to censur- Secretary Baker.
The war must be put into the hands
+ the nation at large. There must be
o attempt to regulate war activities
ccording 10 political expediency. There
aust be cooperation instead of parti-
anship. England found that out, and
: General Smuts and others who were
itcrally hacking each other to pieces
few years ago can sit around a table
nd excitcdly assailed or defended
do it.''
Mr. Davison's resolution was as fol-
,ws:
"That for the purpose Of increasing the
igor and efficiency of our participa-
ion in the war, Resolved, That tho
>merican people be called upon to join
