tive Reserve Program My attempts
to keep tab have included per-
sonal visit to the committee cham
berS some time ago
Rather than divulge the true ma
ture of the proposals. the Commit
tees and others have merely pro-
claimed loudly that this is not
UNIT. The reason for this is ObVi-
Gus. Congress turned UNIT down a
few years ago.
The current Legislative measure
under consideration is known as
IIR 5297 The major argument in
favor Of the proposal says that this
is not UNIT. but a volunteer Re
serve Program. Taken by itself, FIR
1927 appears to be a truly volun-
teer arrangement. However, as an
alternative TO being drafted under
the present SelectiVe Service svs-
TEN. the significance of volunteer"
fades into double talk. The pro-
posal does not make military serv-
ice voluntary. II is a little like be-
ing forced to go swimming with
the option of diving, jumping, or
wading in
| believe that in peacetime our
military forces should be manned
by true volunteers as is now aC-
tually the case with the Air Force,
Navy and Marines who desire this
type of service rather than other
vocationS and public service I'm
times of national emergency we
may need a seIective draft But
under no circumstances can a
democratic society adopt a uni
versal military service program.
In wartime. universal military
service is impractical because we
all know it takes more than soldiers
to win a war And in peacetime,
universal service is abominable on
two counts: the basic ideals of mill
tary caste are contrary to the ideals
of democracy; and further. uni
Versal service would be a tremend-
Gus waste of social and manpoWer
resources.
1t is quite clear to me that HR
1927 is an auxiliary to make the
present seIectiVe draft an almost
universal one | believe that the
time is here to move in the opposite
direction, namely toward a true
volunteer establishment 1t is the
heritage of democracy that we
should run the military establish
ment rather than be run by it.
Sincerely

L asst Chance

Last Chance
Our form of government is I'M
doubleday the best yet devised.
Nevertheless, no one will deny that
it is full of flaws, some of them
serious. Students of government
ascribe various causes for this state
of affairs Decade after decade cost
and confusion increase with no real
effort to check them. II is an al
most unbelievable situation. One
reason given for it is that the coun-
try is too big to be efficiently gov
erned entirely from one place An
other is that so great a part of the
population does not vote at all, and
so many of those who do vote have
no real understanding of either is
sues or men. A third is that what
intensely interests one section
leaves other sections perfectly cold
A fourth is that despite newspapers,
radio and television no known

THURSDAY, MAY 5. 1855
On Voting Machines

We received an explanation this
week from Kermit Glotfelty, mem
Der of the House of Delegates, on
how the voting machine bill be-
came a law. He gave the following
information:
The bill was introduced March
28th by request of the governor. 1t
was House Bill 816 and was spon-
sored by seven counties of the
State not having machines at the
present time Garrett county was
not sponsor of the bill, but could
not have defeated it if they had
tried, for it was passed by very
large majority Of the General AS
Sembly."
There was no intent in last weeks
remarks to place any blame locally
on the passage of the bill We mere
~ wanted to point out that the
county has been placed in the pO-
sition of having to provide voting
machines which will cost approx
mately 100000, and that the meas
ure would create a hardship on the
County Commissioners and the tax
payers

method of communication is able
to arouse the whole voting popula-
ton at the same time over the same
thing. There is some truth in all
these reasons.
Yet there is one thing about which
people in all sections seem united
unless you except the incurable
New Dealers who still believe in
the old ROOsevelt-Eopkins formula
of tax tax. tax, spend, spend,
spend, elect, elect. elect. And that
is waste. Aside from the huge eX-
penditures for the national defense,
there exists vast idi0tic and absurd
waste that cannot be defended.
There has, Of course always been
waste in so great business as the
United States Government; waste
and perhaps corruption are an in
evitable accompaniment OF so gi-
gantic a concern.
But waste, in the sense we have
it now. did not really start until
1884, when the New Deal fully
lowered and we embarked on a
spending spree that lasted eighteen
years There is no space here to
document the awful waste of those
years except to say that the ma
tional debt rose to mountainous
heights and the size Of the Federal
pay roll, plus the spending agen-
cies, multiplied with mdreamed of
speed. The Treasury spigots were
