6 COALITION MOVE GROWS RAPIDLY Washington Writer Urges Gathering Strong Men of Na tion to President's Aid Washington, D. C., April 13. The move for a coalition cabinet is gathering strength every day. In time of war there should be gathered to gether the strongest men of the country, irrespective of party. In both France and Great Britain we have seen new cabinets formed not on party lines, but with a view to en listing the truly able men of the na tion. America is best known for her men of organization ability. Let us have them in the cabinet now! Bringing together young men from all walks of life and all sections of the country, in the same camp, un der the same conditions, will demo cratize the country. It will break down caste, remove misconceptions and will prove to be the one effective melting-pot for making real Ameri cans and real men. His Eminence, Cardinal Gibbons, says: "Universal military training would be of immeasurable benefit to the young men of the country. It brings all together on an equal foot ing and teaches them that they owe an equal allegiance. It would not foster militarism but would safe guard the nation." General Henry Lee of the Revolu tionary Army said: "A government is the murderer of Its citizens, which sends them to the field uninformed and untaught." From our former Ambassador to Germany, Mr. Gerard, we get these words: "When I came back to this coun try, it was a positive shock to mo to find that in the two ■••ears in which the world has been on fire we have done nothing to prepare for even a reasonable means of national defense. There is only one thing—universal military service or universal train ing. The nation that stands opposite to us to-day has probably not less than 12,000,000 men under arms. 1 have seen the Germans take prisoner in one afternoon more men than there are in the United States army." Aero Squads Major General I.eonard Wood said recently: "The Allies have learned the lesson that it is impossible to turn out aviators in jig-time." In this country the output of air planes and accessories is at present limited; almost no men are available who are trained in the duties of ad ministration and the work of organ izing training schools for large num bers of civilian pupils has only just comm enccd. Aero squadrons are now being or ganized at San Antonio. Tex., by the regular army. There will be many vacancies for men possession quali fications or experience in any of the following lines: Gas engines, motor cycles, woorwork, tent-making, ma chinery, motors, trucks, drafting, electricity, tools, airplanes, automo biles, photography or office work. Full Information concerning the squadrons can be received at any re cruiting office. Do you know: That every Amer ican boy, when he reaches the age of IS, under existing laws becomes au tomatically subject to military duty? lie remains subject to call until he reaches the age of 45. Training does not increase, or in any way change the existing liability. The universal service bills now before Congress pro vide for a sane and sensible plan of military training for all young men, physically fit. These Mils are splen did measures, carefully thought out and should become law without de lay.

ARMY SURGEONS WELL DRILLED United States Soldiers to Have - Benefits of Entente's Experience By Associated Press London, April 13. The American soldier ought to be the healthiest sol dier In the world because he starts out backed by a medical organization that has been given all the valuable lessons learned by the big British army in its three years' experience in this greatest of wars. The statement made by Sir Alfred Keogli, surgeon general of the British army to an Associated Press represen tative revealed for the first time the close co-operation between the medi cal branches of the American and British armies maintained since the early days of the war. For this fact the American people must thank Sir Alfred, the man responsible for the health of the five million British sol diers scattered all over the various theaters of war, who has placed and Is still doing so all the Information gained in the war at the disposal of the American army medical men. • Study New Methods Right now, Sir Alfred said, there are in this country four of the leading United States army medical men who have been studying the British medi cal and sanitary arrangements in France and who have toured the hos pitals in England and studied the royal army medical corps at home. They are Surgeon Pleadwell, Colonel Bradley, Major Ford and Major Lis "We have and still are giving the United States army the benefits of our throe years' experience in keeping healthy our enormous army," Sir Al fred continued. "In fact a close co operation between the medical branches of our army and yours has been maintained since the very be ginning of the war. American army medical men have from the start been keeping in touch with oru medical and sanitary arrangements, and If the re sults of their observations have been applied to their own organizations, as I have every reason to believe the\ havj, the United States army ought to take the field under better medical supervision than any In the world. In other words the American soldier ought to be the healthiest, backed as he is by n medical organization that has benefited by all the experiences of the great armies. But Three Epidemics "Of course the United States always had a very highly efficient medical service. The only question is whether or not it is fully prepared for the ex pansion necessary to raising a large army. "The British army Is well fed and Is free of epidemics. Since the out break of war we have had but three epidemics in the British forces and in each case these have been stamped out almost instantly. We did this by concentrating our best medical effort at the source." FINNISH LANDTAG OPENS By Associated Press Helslngfors. Finland.
