LATE SPRING TROUBLES
RITZ-CARLTON FARMERS
The delayed arrivnl of gentle spring, with'
Its life-giving sunshine, has been the despair
of all farmers. . It has also sadly depressed
one William Duff, room clerk of the nitz
Carlton Hotel, for Duff has become, not a
scientific farmer, but a farmer, nevertheless.
In the yard In the icar of his home at
JMJ Aspen street theie nre infant plants
fit onions, beets, peas and countless other
vegetables. Hut Mnce the sun has been
away from Philadelphia for so long, the
sprouts are beginning to look a trifle flayed
nd tired And Duff Is sad, So much so
that he paces nervously each day behind
the front ofllce at I the Illtz.
Duff's enthusiasm In aiding In the con
Mrvatlon of tho food supply of the nation
has spread to the bellhops and other at
taches of the hotel. Many of them hav
followed In the footsteps of the clerk. And
flally the faces that one bees In the cor
ridors of the hotel, attest the fact that If the
sun does not soon appear In all Its warmth,
tragedy, will soon be the lot of the pseudo
farmers.

N.G. P. MAY RECEIVE
CALL BY JUNE 15
Secretary of War to Set
Date of Summoning All
States' Troops
MILLION MAY BE NUMBER
ill n Slajf Varrftrandtnt
' WASHINGTON. May II
The
exact date on which the National
Guard of the various States not now In the
Federal service will be called Into the
federal service will be announced by Secre
tary of War Baker within- a day or two.
It was learned today that because of the
constant pressure on him to give some
definite statement regaidlng the use of the
guard in the new army Secretary Baker
had determined to make known the exact
day on which the guard will be called out.
I'hllade'phla National Guard oiganlza
Horn awaiting the call are the Second Penn
sylvania Field Artillery, the "MKl.K" Bat
tallon of the Sixth Pennsylvania Infantr.v,
vvlifi the remaining companies In the sub
urbs and sui rounding towns; the Phils
delphla squadron of the Klrsl Pennsylvania
Cava'ryj Company It, Engineers, and Am
bulance Company No 2 and Field Mos
pital No 2, of T.icony
MAY BE AS EAIU.Y AS JVSK 15
This date. It Is believed, will be some time
between .tune IB and .luly 15. Every Na
tional Guard unit which has been recog
nized by the War Department will then be
called Into service and concentrated In large
units, divisions whenever possible, and
brigades where this is not possible.
The National Guard units, which will
then be a part of the regular nrniv. will he
put to work at drill Immediately. Any
National Glial d unit which Is not up to full
war strength of liin men to the company
will be brought up to full strength by the
use of the selective draft In other vvonK
when the time comes to draw the men who
will form the new army of 800,000 men,
additional men may alio be drawn to fill up
the National Guard
If by the time for the drawing of the
600,000 men the regular armv Is not also
up to Its full strength of 2!3,n00 It also
will be filled up by the use of the selective
draft. Tho 500.000 men for the new army,
the extta men for the National Guard and
the men needed to fill up the legular army
will thus be drawn at the same time
I'ndcr this rule it may be necessary to
draw not only the 500,000 ii.en hut possi
bly as many ns 600. 000 men, depending on
the manner In which the National Guard
and tho regular army am recruited In the
coining weeks
MAY NfMBEIt MILLIONS
By the time the selectively drafted army
is called Into the service the I'nlted States
will have un army of probably a million
men made up of 52S.O00 conscripts, 293,000
regulars and an Indefinite number of na
tional guardsmen, depending on Vlie num
ber of units organized by each State
Under the law each State may reciult Its
National Guard up to a maximum peace
limit of 800 men to each congressional dis
trict. To do this the State must organize
new units of the guard voluntarily. The
Government has no authority to older the
formation of new units, but It can Insist
that each unit to which It has given recogni
tion must bo up to full war strength By
this plan the Government will be able to
fill up the National Guard through the ur.tr
of the selective draft.
The ultlmato sticngth of the National
Guard Is not known for the reason that the
organization of new units Is purely up to
tho States themselves, hut It can be stated
that whatever guatd units are called Into
the service will ultimately reach full war
strength
The only reaon that the National Guaid
cannot be called out sooner Is that the
equipment for the men Is not available The
date which Secretary Baker will shortly an
nounce depends entirely on the expedition
with which equipment orders are put out
by the contractors.
However, It Is safe lo say that long be
fore the 500,000 iccrults are called out the
National Guard will bo hard at work drill
ing and getting ready to train the men
when they arc called.

EVNIG LEDGER -
UNCLE SAM'S NEW PLAN TO RAISE
ARMIES FOR WAR AGAINST GERMANY
THE selective service bill, as agreed upon by House and Senate conferees,
will raise 1,'JOO.OOO men immediately.
The President is authorized to brinpr tho regular army and National
Guard up to full war strength about 250,000 and 410,000, respectively.
This will be done by employment of the volunteer system until such time
as the President feels that means inadequate then he may apply the drnft.
The bill empowers the President to draft Immediately 500,000 men, not
exempted under the law, between the ages of twenty-one nnd thirty, inclusive,
for military service.
All men twenty-one years old and under thirty-one must register under
penalty.
Boards will sit at points throughout the country to pass on exemptions.
fii nddltion to the first 500,000 Hoops the President is empowered nt any
time to raise 500,000 more men by the process outlined ubovc.
Those exempt from draft under the law arc soldiers nnd sailors now in
service, divinity students, members of well-established religious sects whose
creed opposes wnr and certnln specified skilled workmen.
The entire Nntional Guard, together with its reserves, can be drafted into
the tegular army under tho bill.
Under the mensure one cannot sell nn intoxicant to a solditr in unifoun,
but one may give him a drink, if ho Is off the military reservation.
The Secretary of War is authorized to take necessary steps to prevent
establishment of disorderly houses within such distances of military estab
lishments ns he deems necessary.
