MEN q SINCE JUNE
5 TO BE DRAFTED
LAST YEARS AvAILABLES MUST
FIRST BE CAlLED-TAkE o.
vINiTY STUOENTS-JOiNT CON-
FERENCE NECESSARY.

Washington, April 25.-Drafting of
men who have become n since last
June 5 was approved this afternoon
by the House. Under an amendment
by Representative Hull of Iowa they
will be put at the foot of the list and
called only when all available men
under last years registration have
been taken into the service.
This and another provision which
does away with military exemption
for divinity students will necessitate
a conference with the senate. Chair
man Dent of the military committee
announced that the war department
will order the registration of the men
made eligible by this bill june 5. the
anniversary of the first enrolment.
All men who have reached II by
that date must register; they will be
classed, after answering question
naires. in exactly the same terms as
men enrolled year ago.
Under an agreement proposed
amendments to register men from
q to 40 were postponed to prevent
complicating and delaying the prin'
cipal measure.
If such men are registered, how
ever, 1t will be June also.
Representative Hull won his fignt
to put the 1918 class of young men
at the foot of the list after reading
a statement from the war department
that it neither favored or opposed
the amendment. The vote favoring
the amendment was 119 to 81.

LITTLE ROCK LETTER

This is song that is singing it's

Arkansas was among the leaders in

the state.
There are only four states, and

states. that have exceeded Arkansas
in the actual number of French or
phans adopted.
The food administration announces
that Arkansas led the Union in the
amount of flour voluntarily returned
to be shipped to the allies and our
armies in Europe. Last Friday, a
| shipment of $4,000 worth of flour
went out of Pine Bluff alone, to be
placed by the government.

The Kind Of Men Needed.

The Kind Of Men Needed.
All classes are joining the Re-
serve; professional men, engi-
neers, artisans, laborers of all
kinds. The Reserve welcomes
every patriotic citizen who wish
es to serve, whatever his quail
f%cations. 1t is a democratic or
ganization in which all classes
meet in a common devotion to
lour country.
Men especially needer are me-
chanics, artisans, skilled labor
ers of all kinds, men who can
work with tools. There is great
need for such men now. Every
available man of this sort must
be enrolled promptly or our
country's war work will be re-
tarded.
Only men who are really ready
and able to respond when an OBJ
portunity for service comes
should enroll. The Reserve does
not want to be swamped with
records of men who are merely
expressing patriotism but who,
when it comes down to business
are not going to be able to work
where they may be needed.
Men of draft age are not want
ed if likely to be called soon. En-
rollment in the Reserve is no
ground for exemption.
Acceptance of a Call to Service
Purely Voluntary.
Most of the positions offered
to Reserve members will be well
compensated. Only occasionally
does some branch of the Gov
eminent want unpaid helpers.
No obligation exists to re-
spond to a call when it comes
the Reserve merely presents the
opportunity, trusting to the
judgment and patriotism Of its
members TO lead them to accept.

all the circumstances and of

Exulting over the triumph Of
German arms and German in

a long telegram of congratula-
ton to the Weep President Of the
Reichstag, in which he said
The complete victory fills me with

in which we can r~everently admire

The heroic deeds Of cur troops,
the success of our great Generals,
and the wonderful achievements Of
those at home have their roots in
moral forces and in the categorical

ciple, to enforce obedience to the
moral law in international rela-
tons. Nor do we make any OBJ
