A Nation Armed. Tho power against which we are arrayed has Bought to impose Its will upon the world by force. To this end it has increased armament until it has changed the face of war. In tho sense in which wo havo been wont to think of armies there are no armies In this struggle. There are cntlro na tions armed. Thus the men who re main to till the soli and man tho fac torles aro no loss a part of tho army that Is In Franco than the men be neath the battle flags. It must be so with us. It Is not an army that we must shape and train for war; it Is a nation. To this end our people must draw close in one compact front against a common foe. Hut this can not bo If each man pursues a private purpose. All must pursue one pur pose. The nation needs all men: but It needs each man, not In the field that will most please him, but In tho en deavor that will best serve the com mon good. Thus, though a sharp shooter pleases to operate a tripham mer for the forging of great guna, and an expert machinist desires to 1 ORREGISTERING march with the flag, the nation Is be ing served only when the sharpshoot er marches and the machinist re mains at his levers. The whole na tion must be a eain in which each man shall play the part for which he Is best filled. To this end congress has provided that the nation shall he organized for war by selection and that each man shall be 'classified for scrvlco in the place to which it shall best serve the general good to call him. Virilizing Our Duty. The significance of this cannot be overstated. It is a new manner of accepting and vitaliving our duty to give ourselves with thoughtful devo tion to the common purpose of us all. It is In no sense a conscription of the unwilling; it Is rathor, selection from a nation which hns volunteered in mnss. It is no more a choosing of those who shall march' with the col ors than It Is a selection of those who shall serve an equally necessary and devoted purpose in the industries that lie behind the battle line. The day here named Is the time upon which all shall present them selves for assignment to their tasks It is for that reason destined to be re membered as one of the most conspic uous moments in our history. It Is nothing less than the day upon which the manhood of the country shall step forward in one solid rank in defense of the ideals to which this nation Is consecrated. It Is important to those ideals no less than to the pride of this generation In manifesting its de votion to them, that there bo no gaps In the ranks. Day of Patriotism. it is essential that the. day he ap proached in thoughtful apprehension ot Its significance and that we accord to it the honor and the meaning that it deserves. Our industrial need pre scribes that it he not made a techni cal holiday, but the storn sacrifice that is before us, urges that It be carried in all our hearts as a great day ot patriotic devotion and obliga tion when the duty shall Ho upon every man, whother he is hlmsolf to bo registered or not, to see to It that the name of every. male person of the designated ages Is written on these lists of honor. In witness whereof. I havo here "Ho sot my hand ana caused tho seal of the United States to be affixed Done at the City of Washington, this 18th day ot May in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and seventeen, and of tho Indepen dence of the United States of America tho one hundred and forty-first.

WASHINGTON, May 19. On sign ing tho war army bill, President Wil son issued a statement say that acting under expert advice from both sides of the water, he would be unable to avail himself at the present stage of the war of the authorization to or ganize volunteer divisions. There was talk In army circles to night of the possibility that a way would be found to use the former president's services in another way, but official comment on the subject was lacking. In an extended state ment tonight, President Wilson said: "I understand that the section of this act which authorizes the creation of volunteer divisions in addition to the draft was added with awiew to providing an Independent command for Mr. Roosevelt and giving that military authority an opportunity to use his fine vigor and enthusiasm in recruiting the forces now at the wes tern front." Reasons Set Forth. "I shall not avail myself at any rute nt the present stage of the war of the authorization, conferred by the act to organize volunteer divisions. To do so would seriously interfere witli the currying out of -the chief and the most imporinnt purpose con templatcd by this legislation, the prompt creation and curly use of nn effective army, and would conlribul practically nothiiur to 1 lie effective strength of tho armies now engaged ainst flcrniany. "It would bo very agrccnhlo to inc to pay Mr. Konsovelt Ibis compliment and the allies I lie compliment of .-'end iiff to llieir aid one of our most dis tinguished public men, an cx-prcsident who has rendered many conspicuous public services and proved his! '.gal lantry in many striking ways, l'o litieally, loo, it would no doubt have a very fine effect and make a pro mud impression. Hut Ibis is not Ibe time, or Ibe occasion for compli nient or for any net ion not calculated to contribute to the immediate suc cess of the war. The business now n band is uiiilramalic, practical and of scientific def'initeness and precis ion. I shall act witli regard to il t every step and in every particular under expert and professional ad vice, from bolh sides of (he water. Young Men Needed. "That advice is that the men most needed are men of the ages contcin- iited in the drult provision ot the present bill, not men of the age and orl contemplated in the section which authorizes Ibe formation of volunteer units, and (bat for the preliminary traiuine; of the men who are lo be drafted we shall need all of our ex perienced officers. Mr. ltooscvell I old n I bad ihfi pleasure of seeing him n few weeks ago, Unit lie would wish to have associated with him ome of the most effective officers of the reirular arm. He named mnnv f those whom be would desire to have designated for the service, and icy were men who cannot posibly be spared from the too small force of officers at our command for the much more pressing and necessary duty of training regular' troops to be put into the field in France nnd Rcliritim lis fast as they can be got rend v. "The first troops sent to France will be taken from tho present forces of the regular army and will be un der the command of trained soldiers only. resident iWKxniiic. "The responsibility for Ibe success fill conduct of our own part in this great war rests upon me. T could not escape it if I would. I am too much interested in the cause we are fighting for to be interested in any thing but success. The issues in volved are loo immense for me lo take into consideration anything w-lintever except the bet, most cff"ct ivc, most iinj'diate means of military action. What these means are I know from the mouths of men win, have seen war as it is now cond-.f led, who have no Illusions, and to wli the whole grim matter is n matter of luMne. ..hall center my atten tion upon llioo means nnd let ev ry thintr cUc wait. "I should be deeply lo blame should I do otherwise, whatever the argu ment of policy for a personal gratifi cation or advantage,'' Teddy Wnnlcil Wood. The It t of regular officers Mr. Ifoo-evcll desired lo lake with him Ijiis been lite subject of much specif 0 ACCEPT OFFER FROMROOSEVELT latioii and comment. It has been regarded as virtually certain ' that Major Ceuernl Leonard Wood was the former president's selection of supreme comand of Hie force. Under the plans of the war de partment, General Wood has been as signed Ibe hardest task of any gen eral ot'ieer. He will direct, as com mander of the- southeastern depart ment, tiie mobilization and training of 12 divisions, or more than IIOO.OOO men, among" whom without question will he those who will he firs! se lected to follow General Fershir.g's forces to France. In his proclamation under the draft hill the president, declaring estab lishment of tho selective conscrip tion system "a new thins: in our his tory and a landmark in our progress,'1 enjoined lite nation to approach the day of registration, "in thoughtful apprehension of its significance.'
