FIRlilEII OF WHAT
E
Difficult Even Now to Get Men to
Volunteer for Military Service
in Europe.
Washington, June 2. Congress
men have discovered a keen resent
ment among officers In the regular
army establishment against the rec
ently announced policy of the War
Department to Bend all permanent
officers overseas. The policy just
adopted calls for the use of these of
ficers as replacements with indica
tions that their services will continue
as long as it is necessary to main
tain American forces in Europe.
When General Pershing first called
for 50,000 men to take the places of
the men on the Rhine who wanted
to return to provide for thoir fam
ilies at home, an intensive recruiting
system was inaugurated. At the
same time commanding officers were
instructed to compile a list of offi
cers in their units who were anxious
to serve overseas.
While practically every man hold
ing a commission ir. the United
States Army used every influence at
his command to get "over there"
while the war was on, the depart
ment has discoverel a marked disin
clination to go to France and Ger
many at this time. As the officering
of the forces is an imperative neces
sity, the department has issued or
ders to select officers regardless of
the preference of the Individual.
Men experienced in American mil
itary matters point to this as having
a potent bearing upon any agree
ment guaranteeing this country's
participation in any war that may
break out in Europe or elsewhere in
the world In the future: If officers,
whose life work is military work,
are not willing voluntarily to offer

are at stake, not only the regular
army officers and men hut the great
mass of Americans whould volunteer
to protect the country and defend
its honor. But it is pointel out that
even now there are about twenty
small wars raging in Europe over
boundary lines anl between Jealous
nationalities, between some of which
there has been racial hatred for gen
erations. It is obvious that one of
two alternatives are just ahead.
Either these wars will continue and
grow and involve all of Europe, as
the small Balkan wars did, or the
larger nations must step in and put
an end to the conflicts. In either
event it means that boundary lines
and decisions made by the present
peace conference will have to be
propped up with bayonets.
