RUSH PLAN TO EN
ROLL 1 0 MILLION
MEN FOR THE WAR
Preparations to Register Men Under
Draft Law Proceed With
Swiftness.
Machinery Ready to Take Census in
Record Time of Fourteen
Hour Day.
Washington, D. C, May 20. Prep
arations to register 10,000,000 young
men for military service on June 5
are proceeding swiftly throughout the
country. Advices reaching the war
department show that forty-two states
have their machinery already organ
ized, ready to proceed with the work.
The reports mean that the central
boards have been established in
county and city for each 30,000 popu
lation, that blanks and forms have
been distributed and that nation-wide
machinery stands ready to take the
military census in the shortest time
ever allowed for such a huge under
taking one fourteen-hour day.
The plan was evolved by Brigadier
General Crowder, prevost marshal
general as well as judge advocate
general of the army, and its efficiency
rests upon its simplicity. The scheme
is to co-ordinate the vast electoral ma-
chinery of every state under one cen
tral authority. At one step all local
conditions are met in this way. No
matter what peculiarity of election
system any state may have it will
function perfectly in the national reg
istration scheme, and function without
re adjustment.
Supervised decentralization is what
was aimed at and what has been ac
complished according to the reports
that come pouring in today. All
doubts as to the wisdom of turning
this task over to the state was dis
pelled by the nature of the governor's
messages.

Yesterday the country home of
John Warga, south of the city, was the
scene of a very pleasant gathering
when a party composed of Tony Kou

Frank Sitzmaii of Plattsmouth visited
there. The boys spent the time in
angling for the fishes with much suc
cess and had one of the times of their
lives. They report having enjoyed
two square meals that they will long
remember very pleasantly, and they
are strong for the hospitality that was
shown them at the Warga homeland
look forward to other pleasant fishing
trips in the future. ,
