legislation is now declared by the War Department to be the pressing need.
 Plans are that the draft legislation will be taken up in the House next week. Despite all efforts a concilia- tion between the War Department and minority members O. the House Military Committee it seems likely that the controversy will go to the floor for settlement. This contest cen- ters around whether the seconi draft quotas shall be based upon the mum Der of men in Class 1 in each dis trict or the total of registra:l-s of al, classes. The sentiment for the latte, plan is particularly strong from con gressmen from rural districts.
 General CrOwder says it will seri, ously affect war industries to take essential men from their work for active military service.

W .o.O. LIBERTY BOND DRIVE
An Appeal to Every True American to
 Do His DUSy.

Contributed:
 The big Liberty Bond drive for the Third Issue, will start April the sixth, bearing A. per cent interest Wi,l the government as security. How are We lined up? Have we been thinkn" about this drive? Have we as Ameri- c,n people hcd small vision Cs the terrific battle that is raging on the western front? Have we not heard the cry of Premier Lloyd George and Gen eral Pershing to send men? Gan we as patriots fail to heed this call? Have we looked the situation square in the face? Do we realize what it would mean if we hcd our American force there fully equipped just at this par ticular time? We must hear the call We must heed the call, We must have money and means for every phase of the course We cannot send our men over seas to fight out battle with every cause to believe we will stand be- hinH hem till the victory is won. We as American pN.riots Who c'nnot shoulder a gun and march bravely to the front and face the enemy but have given our very best, our sons
 Now, we cannot afford to give our sons, brothers and sweethearts to sail over seas to the bloody fields 0. France without every possible hope and utmost confidence that we will t. snd behind them in every sense of the cause Could there ever be a more vailable time than now to show our selves equal to the cause han just at this time? Are we not willing to make some sacrifices of worldly pleasures and buy Liberty Bonds? And prove to our boys, who are not only going to fight their battles. but our battles, that we are in every sense of the word going to stand behind them. Can Uncle Sam sends troops over seas without every assurance that they will be supported in ever sense of the cause? Can Uncle Sam equip our army without the support of the pub lie? Will we sit down careless and unconcerned and fail to do our bit? Think of the price of a Liberty Bond compared with the price of human lives, The price of one small bond may be the means of several lives being saved. Is this not the time to make some sacrifice? Can we not give up a few picture shows and a few joy rides and buy Liberty Bond and have "a part in this great victory We are struggling to win? Have we ever stopped to think ot the expense of this awful war? Do We think the government can train, feed and equip the American allies without our sup port? Nay, we must have par in it, So let's all wake up and look the situation square in the face, and all be ready to do our bit Everybody
