gress.

Opposes Compulsory Berqvice. "The association Is oppoeedl to any form of compulscMry military service which unnecessarily seises a boy from imme and those good Induences which are as necessary, in character building, as the technic of war which he might be taught in profeMlonal sehoola •^e association favors that form of universal military training which will Ipve to the young roan in early youth the rtnUments ot a military education, while at the same time he is under tlw guidance of hie mother and hi pre pMbig for what , will be yo him the real battles ot life. ^ “The question naturally arises what Is the dllTerence between compulsory universal training and compulsory unlverssl service^'’ Miyt the aseoctatkm in defining Its position to the congress

Universsi Training Idea

Compulsory universal training is that form of education which will Instill into thd heart of boy, love of country and an ambition to become a good ettlsen, ready to assume all the obli gallons and to bear all the responsl bilittee of citizenship; and, at the same time, to teach him oy duty In the field the fundamentals which will prepare him for the training which he should then receive as a member of the citizen soldiery of the United .States. “Compulsory universal service thrusts him into the regular milttary houaehold at an age when he le not fully qualified to decide for himself; and possibly Infiuences him, against t«ie wishes of his parents and against what would be hie own mature Judgment, to lead the life of a professional soldier with all Its temptations, and with the narrowing influences which broad men know that the soldier's life is filled with At the same time, it could not. in three or six moatha, make a finished aoldler out of him in the accepted sense of the word.’

Pendififi Bill It Opposed.

The association opposes the Wads worth-Kahn bill, which was prepared by the general staff and introduced at the request of Secretary of War Baker,

for the following reasons

The bill is crude, incomplete and provides'no general seneme of a military

policy for the United States.

It creates an unnecessarily large regu lar army, and pro\ldes advanced grades

Contain* Many Joker*. It docs not make clear Juat what •eetlons or aria it intends to repeal; and it Incorporates hy referance a number of statutec, and contains many

jokers.

It gives blanket power to the general stair to reoraanize the army and to carry out their univeraal training scheme by ’Tegulatlona" it put* the system of reserve officers under “regulations to be adopted by the general staff The expense of maintaining the enormous regular army and the compulsory aervice feature* would add at leari a billion and a half to two bllRon dollars to the tax rate, which ia already prohibitive. In an analysis of the bill the association says in its communication to the congress* "The bill might be labeled a bill to advance in grade ail officers of the regular army, and for fear that some one other than a regular army officer would attato a commission as anything but a second lieutenant the bill expressly provides that all vacancies are to be filled by regular army officers, and by ’person# not over forty years of age who served honorably in the temporary forces of the United States organized since April 6, 1917.' Advances Regular Offietr*. "In practice this means that all regular army officers are to be advaneed as far as possible and those officers . under forty years of age wUl be considered The point to that the act. by forbidding the appointment of anyone ‘over forty years ot age makes good the slogan of the regular army, which was ‘Let no Funstons come out of this war.’ It would ^be Impossible, for example, under this bill for MajorGeneral O’Ryan, who commanded the 27th division, to be appointed even as first lieutenant 'Section 39 provides that all male citizens shall undergo such militarv training ‘as may bo prescribed by the President' for a period of three months, com-, mencing in the calendar year in which they reach the age of nineteen If for any reason, for example^ there is not sumclent appropriation to take the entire 660,000 men who will reach the age of nineteen each year, a man under thi* bill would b« exempted until he reached twenty years of age. unless he had been deferred or exempted as provided by Section 40, in which case he does not become exempt until he reaches the age of twenty-five. ' Number of Digtrict*. 'Even the number of training dlstricU is left to ‘regulations.’ It is Important to note that there are to be no exemptions from service because of dependency, but that dependents are to be paid an amount not to exceed ISO a month. There are to be no training corpe for these men, but they are to he placed directly in the regular army. That is to say, young men of nineteen are to be attached directly to the army cf professional soldiers The bill in fact is a mere outline. Everything ia to be'done by ‘regulationa’ "Another case of giving blanket power to the President to be executed In practice by the general staff In other words the congress is again asked to turn over all of Its control of the armv to ‘regulations' to be adopted by the genSriU staff. "Sections 46. 46, 47, 48 provide a draft system for drafting the men for thtk compulsory service. There are to be 2,000 local boards of three men each, to be paid not less than 110 per diem and their actual expenses. In addition to theae boards there are appeal boards who receive like compensation, but the number of men to consUtute these appeal boards Is to be provided 'by regulations’ and then there are to be such medical and clerical assistants as may be fixed by ‘regulations ’ No Guard Reference. The secretary of war. in transmitting the bill, said that the bill made no reference to the national guard This is true. The Idea of the hill Is to do away with the national guard; for it takes a young man at the time when he would be considering enlisting in the national guard, gives him three months' training, and then provides that he shall not be liable for further training or service H time of peace without his consent, the idea being to convey to him that after three months he Is fully trained and need never serve again during his life except in case of war. If it is true that he needs no further training he would be foolish to enlist in the national guard The act assumes that a man can be trained in three months so that five or ten or fifteen years later, when regulations have all been changed, he will be fitted for service in time of war. Certainly this Is not true. A much better system than a cramming force of three months is a reasonable amount of training ^ven over a period of years.”
