BONUSES FOR ENLISTMENT?
As the proposal of the war department and of President
Roosevelt to lengthen the service period in the new army takes
form for congressional consideration. Senator George V.
Norris of Nebraska makes the headlines by suggesting a
bonus for drafted men who volunteer for army service beyond
the original one-year period. The suggestion is good politics,
its enactment would be poor practice.
In justification of his plan, the senator speaks glowingly of
"our contract with the boys." The term is rather far fetched.
There was no offer and no acceptance. There was a command,
which was to be obeyed. Voluntary enlistment does involve a
contract; in selective service there is none.
In the American army, we have the two types of service.
It is to be noted that, in the main, the drafted man (selectee,
in the army's euphemistic nomenclature), serves as willingly
as the man who enlisted without call, but the fact remains
that the first entered the service on command and that the!
command may be renewed. But both are in the army.
The Norris plan is bad in the fact that it would make one
type of service eligible for special reward. Because the reward
would be noted in advance, it would better be regarded as a i
special inducement. Here we have two men who entered the :
army on the same day. One enlisted for three years; the
other one was called for one year. The first would be per-j
mitted to step forward and say, "I'll serve for another year," j
and draw his bonus (the amount is not mentioned by the sen
ator) ; the other could only reflect, "I'm in for two more years j
anyway, so I get no extra pay." j
V ithin the drafted personnel, there would be the further
i Opt
fact that, if a soldier did not wish to continue, he could still be
required to do so. It may be taken for granted that, with this
compulsion in the background, he would promptly step for
ward. The net result would be a pay increase for the selective
service army (already high in its pay scale compared with the
majority of other armies of the world). And, as has been re
marked, part of the army would not come under this pay in
crease. And then there are the navy and marine corps and coast
guard, branches of the service in which the draft is not used,
where fairly long enlistment periods are the rule. With one.
