CHANGE OF OPINION

The Army issued it's recent or der without explanation. The or der not only represents an about face from World War draft theo- ries but also a reversal of opin- ions given before congressional committees during hearings on the selective service bill. when Army officials told congressman that voluntary enlistment would not fill requirements of an army of nearly a million men.
 What has happened, however, is just what the men behind the selective service anticipated Once the threat" of a draft mea sure became a reality, voluntary enlistments jumped sky high.
 In New York City, police had to be called out to keep the would-be soldiers in line and pre- vent their snarling traffic around

Roosevelt, Hoover Approve Training
 Plan of Boy Scouts

Both the Honorary President, Franklin D. Roosevelt. and Hon. orary Vice-President, Herbert C. Hoover, of the Boys Scouts of America have just recorded com plete support of the Boy Scout emergency service training pro- gram. It is admirably timed and suited to the needs of the hour" said President Roosevelt in a let ter sent to Dr. James E. West, Chief Scout Executive after a study of the plan of action pro- posed by National Boy Scout leaders and now being put into effect in all sections of the coun- try.
 The President who, in accord ance with custom, has served as Honorary President of the Scout Movement since his inauguration in 1883, and was an active lead CT for many years prior to that time, said further;

WAR DEPARTMENT IS AFTER VOLUNTEERS TO ENLIST; NEW TACTICS
By Jack Stinnett

WASHINGTON, Oct. - Just what the Army is up to, the Army isn't telling these days. But it certainly has reversed it. self by going in for voluntary en listments in big way in the face of the impending draft.
 The recent order making it possible for young men to enlist for one year, and making those enlistments count on selective service quotas, is exactly oppo- site to what the Army did in the World War. Then it suspended entirely the privilege of volun- tary enlistment.
 Although it's off-the-record talk, some Army officials al ready have said that the result will be that in many districts not single young man will be called on the first call and pos sibly in some not in the first quota.
 A quick survye of the figures will explain why this is cer- tainty.
 The first quota, between Mo- vember and January, is 100000 men. This means approximately one-fortieth of total estimated number of registrants from 21 to 35 years old.
 In other words, if one young man in your neighborhood en- lists. that eliminates 40 from the first quota, and more than one in 200 from the first call due within few weeks after registration.

SIGNIFICANT HISTORY MAKING DATES

The middle of this month - October presents several dates vested with exceptional signific- ance in American and world af- fairs.
 Last Wednesday, Oct. 16, Am erica's significant embargo on exports of scrap metals went in- to effect with possible far reach ing consequences.
 October 16, last Wednesday, peace-time conscription went in- to effect, with it's clarion call for the cream of Americas young manhood to enroll with the col ors-With a goal of 1,500,000 by the first of the year.
 Yesterday, October IT, the Bur ma Road opened, the possible pi- votal event that may bring about major alignments of the powers, possibly swinging Am CT ca, China and Britain into new at- titude bearing on the shaping of the destiny of nations.
 Watch for the effects of these moves on the worlds checker board. They may have a vital bearing on the fate of untold mil lions.

TROUBLE IN WORLD WAR

About one-third of the more than 100000 men in all military forces during the World War en- listed before enlistments were cut off in the closing months of the war.
 But the trouble was that they came in waves and so upset the selective service mechanism that before 1918 was we'll along, Army officials had no way of es timating what they would get on draft call.
 This situation, however, did not arise until Glass 1 was near ing exhausted and probably could not arise under the Burke Wadsworth bill, unless some need arose for greatly increasing the armed forces beyond a mil lion.
 ih the eantime, say the side line ext 5, the Army is going to have throw at the psycho- logical effect of letting the boys enlist under requirements and for term of service that are no more stringent that if they wait ed for their selective service call.

recruiting stations.
 The applicants went through at the rate of 100 an hour.
 New York is not a typical city by any means, but if every young man applying for enlist ment were found to be physical ly, mentally and morally fit for service (which they couldn't DOS sTbly be, of course) New York City could fill the first quota for the entire state in a little more than eight weeks.
 The trouble about voluntary enlistment, according to Liet. Col Victor J. O'Kelliher sometimes referred to around here as dad dy of the draft" is that it moves in irregular tides.
 Today it may take a battalion of police to handle tn eapplicants
 Tomorrow, the most persuasive recruiting officer won't get a re- cruit.

Very sincerely yours, FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT

Dr. West, in making public the tex. of the Presidents message, emphasized the pertinance of MT RooSeVelt'S statement on action "within the scope of the regular program of training for Scout age" and pointed out that what is being developed is an intensl- fcation of the established and timetested Scout program rather than the adoption of new and untried methods and activities.
 At the same time pr. West invited attention to former Presl dent Herbert Hoover's statement of complete agreement with the basic premise of Scout prepared mess - that today's paramount need is "the strengthening and invigorating of democracy in the United States"
 MT. Hoover, now Honorary Vice-President of the Boy Scouts of America, whose two sons are former Scouts, has endorsed the new Scout training campaign, calling on all Americans to sup port Scouting at this time more than ever before.
 MT. Hoover said
 Dear Dr. West:
 I am glad 10 learn that the Boy Scouts of America is going forward aggressively with pro- gram of action based on the pre- mise that while military prepar- edness is necessary for our coun- try the paramount need of na tional defense is the strengthen ing and invigorating of charac-

ter and resolute moral fibre in the United States.
 1 rejoice to learn that you have planned no change in pro- gram and will continue to en- phasize the fact that the Scout Program, without technical mili- tary training, is ideally suited for boys of Scout age in the devel- opment of character and training for Citizenship.
 The record of Scouting over the years is outstanding, and am hopeful that in this inten- sive development of your pro- gram and the extension of the movement to more boys you will have the support not only of all now identified with Scouting but of all the American people.
 Yours faithfully,

My dear pr. West:

My dear pr. West:
 l am most favorably impress ed with the scope and magnitude of the emergency service train ing program now being develop ed throughout the Nation by the Boy Scouts of America and out lined in Bulletin No. II, for which please accept my thanks.
 At no time in its history has our country had greater need for this kind of serious work and preparation. Your plans for pro- viding it seem admirably timed and suited to the needs of the hour and within the scope of the regular program of training for boys of Scout age.
 I am proud of the achieve ments of our Boy Scouts. The movements record of service in distress, disaster and every type of emergency, as well as its achievements for character build ing and citizenship training, com mands universal respect. The pre- sent emergency will afford an ex cellent opportunity for our Scouts to assume new responsib ilities and to gain practical ex- perience through patriotic ser vice.

Camp, o. $. Weaver, James Panos, Leo Seidenverg, Alfred Lomen, and A Polet.
 Ira M. Rank was born 73 years ago at Massillion, Ohio, and for time lived at Wichita Kansas and Seattle. From Seattle he came north in 1898 and packed in over the Chilkoot Pass. At Dawson he sold merchandise for the firm for which he later es- tabllshed a store here in Nome. In 1905 he bought out that store and went into business for him. self.
 With his partner Billy Thomp- son, he owned and operated a trading post at Blubber Bay or Hooper Harbor in Siberia, until 1919 when the Reds came into power and they confscated every thing. Rank escaped on the Trad CT and the Reds offered a price on his head. The Trader is still active in the trading end of his business, the US. Mercantile Go.
 "Fv'7-s-7-SE1vs sssaass.ssszA
 On his trading trips, Rank has been as far into the Arctic as Vankaram on the Russian side and to Hershel Island on the Can adian side. The schooner Trader has made an annual trip to the Yukon and Hooper Bay to the south and to Pt. Barrow to the North.
 He owned or was interested in practically every schooner that landed on the Nome beach. For mail years he carried the coast wise mail in this section.
 He was unwell when he left on his last trading trip to Bar row, the Trader running into head winds and bad weather throughout the entire trip. After reaching Barrow the schooner continued to the eastward $50 miles to Humpheries Point, near the Canadian border.
 On the stormy southbound trip three hours out of Barrow, the engine broke down and the Trad CT was sailed to Wainwright where repairs were made. From Wainwright to Teller, Rank was never able to leave his bunk in the forecastle. From Teller he was flown to the Nome hospital where he was found to have an intestinal disturbance, and died Monday morning of a hemorr- haze.
 He is survived by a widow, Mrs. Rank in Nome, who has been hospitalized for three years suffering from paralysis; two nephews, Kenneth Rank at Nome managing the store here, and Carol Price Rank of Cashmere, Washington, who is flying to Nome to assist Kenneth; two bro thers, Otis E. Rank of Cashmere, Wash. and Levitt Rank of Priente, Calf; and a sister Mrs. G. H. Hambright of Seattle.
