' MEN FOR THE ARMY
The draft problem now before con
greas is simple. More men are needed
'for the army, when the present se
lective service law was enacted it was
i " ' thought that 2,000,000 or 3,000,000
would suffice for our share of the al
lied military burden. On that basis
the law was adequate.
' X- f.' already have nearly 3,000,000
. men under arms, at borne and aDroaa
but that is not enough. Our govern
ment is now planning, quite properly.
for an army of 5,000,000 men.
It may prove necessary to raise
mora than that. We cannot get anv
- auch number from Class One of the
H selective service lists as constituted
' at present, covering ages from 21 to
31. It is evident that, unless we ar
ts take men from the other classes, we
'must extend the service age limits.
To draft men from any but the first
- and moat eligible class of recruit.
would mean to take the heads of fam
' tliea, fathers and brothers and sons of
' persons dependent on them for sup
" port or personal care. It would mean
"" also the taking of skilled men employ.
ed m essential industries, and of men
below the desired standard of phys-
Ique or mentality. We do not want
' 0 to do any of these things. It is clear
ly better to incorporate more ellgibles
in Class One by admitting younger
' and older men.
' " '"rThe age limit recommended by the
war department, 18 to 45, may appear
extreme. ' At their extremities thev
" ate little more than nominal. It is not
r ' Hkeiy that we shall send our 18-year-
olds to the firing line, although Eng.
' r' land.'harder pressed, has used boys
v!of'18H' to repel this year's German
offensive." As for boys of 19 and 20,
' military experts are practically un--animous
in regarding them as the
"very Best of army material. More
over, they can most easily be spared
'-'from their families and communities.
; It should not be forgotten, in this con-
nection, that our northern armies in
' - vhe Civil War were made up almost
! ' entirely of boys under 21.
- A considerable number of eligible!
' could be obtained in the older classes
' up to 35 Tlu war department in
practice will hardly want to go be
yond that limit for army material, ex-
'"" cept in special cases.
- i-r .- n will be valuable, however, to give
the government military authoritv
' over all our men of middle life up to

hood, tip to that limit, can then be
put on a war basis, and any man who
happens now to be misplaced in the
general scheme can be put where his
' ' ' particular ability will count most for
. his country and himself.
" CASUALTY COMPARISONS
- r i . '
When contemplating our casualtv
' lists, just remember that British cas
ualties for the month of July, when
there was not supposed to be much
fighting on the British front, amount
ed to 7,291. The month before they
were 141,14 V.
' At the height of our military activ.
ity so far, we have not begun to ap
proximate the normal British and
French losses.
"Every casualty case is a matter for
sympathy and serious appreciation on
the "part of the people at home; but
any excessive concern over the lists
now coming in would seem a shame.
ful thing, when we considerer what
our allies have suffered so long and
are still suffering.

And let' us not cry then, either.

Modern war conditions demand that our armies must have behind them na
tional solidarity, the coordination of all the vast activities and an indus
trial army many times greater than the Nation's fighting forces.
The Nation's capital is linked with all these varied activities by the toll
and long distance lines of the BeH System. Thousands of miles of special
wire systems have been turned over to the Government for its exclusive
use. Switchboards in the Government departments at Washington have
been enlarged and new ones installed. Right of way ia given to Govern
ment business over all commercial lines, so that the Government chiefs
may keep in constant touch with every phase of the Nation's great task
and direct its progress intelligently and effectively.
In organizing the military activities of the country, the Government has
had the effective cooperation of the. Bell Telephone System, which even
In peace times reached 70,000 communities and now extends to the head
quarters of every Army Department and Naval District in the United States.
