An ahsurd solicitation for the welfare of the people is suddenly manifested, (lone is the boastful, bnttftfart partnership of "Mi; mid dolt" and the "shining sword," which was to Oernianizc the world. A few allied successes have (hanged the insolent tone of kultur. t is rapidly Ix-coming a war of defense fur deriuany hut it is not yet a war of defense. One doesn't into his neighbor's home and burn and pilfer and murder in defense of his own home. The dcrmaii armies are still holding conquered territory. Oerniany is still untouched by the war. When dcrmaii armies stand on derniau soil defending dcrmaii cities from the righteous wrath of the world, it will become it war of defense for dcrinany, and not until then. When Germany first began her war of conquest, the kaiser began yelling vociferously for peace and hits con tinued it regularly since. Simultaneously the dernians began levying indemnities upon conquered territory be cause Germany was "compelled to defend herself front strong enemies." derman thoroughness and efficiency has been shown in the campaign of deception regarding "a "war of defense" while looting ICurope. The kaiser, with his pockets bulging with spoils and his soul stained crimson with tlie crimes he has commit ted in the name of the Fatherland, has not yet reached the stage where he is willing to talk about' refunding the enormous forced payments he has wrung from I5elgittm, France and l'oland,'of making restitution for the devas tation lw li.'iu . ciinolit ,P I'ut.imn,.

The needless burning of the historic town of St. Qtien lin, and the modern manufacturing city of Cantlirai and other occupied cities, form no part of a war of defense. They merely show the untamed spirit of the vandal Hun to destroy and mutilate and ruin that which he cannot possess. The allies can not even think of peace, let alone talking it, until these crimes are avenged. Reprisals on derman cities and upon dernians are the only lesson the Hun is capable of understanding. dcrinany has raised something like twenty billions of dollars to finance its war of spoilation. Vet dernianv has less than half the resources of Hie United States, which has raised less than half the sum Unit has been given the kaiser. Are we, as a people, less patriotic than the (icrinans that we lag behind in our fourth loan while, dcrinany proceeds with her tenth? We have a righteous cause the Germans have not. We are fighting for human liberty to extend the declar ation of independence to the world, as well as defend our own fut tin while the dernians are fighting to enslave humanity for dcrmaii glory. Why then do yon not support your government and your army as the dcryians support theirs I There iy only one way you can support it you who do not fight, and thai is to lend your money that others may fight for you. Von can only do this bv buying liberty bonds ns many as you can and keep buying them. And you will, it Mm are noi a siacucr.

Artillery specialists, of non-com missioned officers grades such ai sergeant major, electrician ser geants, master gunner, engineers, firemen, and radio sergeants, are to lie appointed after graduating at the schools nnd established for training in Iheso specialties.

Certain expert men who are nnt I hyslenlly qualified for overseas ser vlco may be inducted into service nevertheless, for duty in home sta tions, releasing men physically fit, to ;o overseas.
