It would require able-bodied men to serve as they were required to serve in the last war, but it would also require wealth lo serve in the same proportion, and it would require industry to produce without greater proportionate compensation than the men receive who will be in uniform. It would make every resource of the nation available for government use without question in lime of war and would make war profiteers impossible in the next conl'licl. . In spile of our experience in 1017 and 1!)X, there are i,till those who would have us haggle over pennies in the next .conflict.

They foresee' industrial c)iaos .and ruin if the same tactics were used in handling our industrial plants. They are concerned with the aftermath of war, not the winning. They want to protect the business structure, of the nation first and the nation and its soldiers second. They seem intent on haggling over pennies. -It is true that the railroads of the country didn't emerge 11 tun me war period ol gnvei nnient operation in the liest of Condition. Hut they did their work. They transported troops when the need whs there. They rushed supplies when supplies were a necessity. They were organized, not for the purpose of being in prime condition when the war ended so as to serve peace m etis, but for the one and only purpose of winning the war. Mistakes were madehun dreds of them and mistakes will be made in the next war. But mistakes were made in handling men as well as iii handling railroads. Mistakes caused loss of thousands or lives as well as the loss of thousands of dollars. Mad in dustry and resources been dratted as was manpower, some of those lives would have been saved. And lives are more important than .dollnrs-tmen are moi-e valuable than in dustries. If we .would trust our boys to the government in time of war, shall we fail to' safeguard 'that trust bv curtailing the resouives and facilities that will make their efforts victorious? If we tlo not haggle over lives, should v.-c turn ubout and hag-g'c over pennies ?. Vli. VWwVr.. n..V. t- w,i V W 7 vf X If (luy to run.
