An outline of how his proposed Vo- cational Army training school plan, endorsed by President Wilson, may he economically, efficiently and quickly started throughout the country, has been written by W. D. Boyce of the Boyce publications. In brief, Mr. Boyce suggests that a vocational army training school be added to each state college under federal aid and guid- ance. Concerning the plan, Presi- dent Wilson, in his recent western trip, said in part: “We ought to have in this country a great system of industrial and vo- cational education, under Federal guidance, and it will be perfectly feasible and highly desirable to add to that and combine with it such training in the mechanism and use and care of arms, in the sanitation of the camp, in the simpler forms of ma- neuver and organization, as will make these same men industrially and indi- vidually serviceable for national de- fense. “The point about such a system will be that its emphasis will lie on the industrial and civil side of life, so that men will think first of their families and daily work and their services in the economic fields of the country, and only last of all to their serviceability to the nation as soldiers and men at arms. That is the ideal of America.” Mr. Boyce says in part: “To start the Army Vocational Schools, all that is necessary is for United States army training barracks (for drilling and living purposes) ‘o be added to the state colleges, with a corps of military instructors, equip- ment, etc., all of which can easily be provided by the Federal govern- ment. All the expenses of this ad- dition must be born¢ by the United States, which furnishes board, lodg- ing and clothing for the young men who take the course. The govern- ment does this in exchange for the student’s services while he is being trained to be a fit soldier. The state furnishes the instruction in the trade, profession or occupation which the student elects to take. He is put to no expense and he remains in the Vo- cational Army School two years or more, going to his classes like any student in a college, but being under regular army discipline and living in barracks. After his graduation he is subject to the call of the United States government for military ser- vice, but he goes into the trade, pro- fession or occupation in which he has been instructed and in which he is a finished product. “We have frequently called atten- tion to the fact that 85 per cent of the boys of the United States are obliged to go to work to support themselves at the finish of their com- mon school education, going without the vocational training which they want and need. The Vocational Army Schools would give every boy, whether | his parents are poor, well-to-do or rich, an equal chance to get a prac- tical education and at the same time fit himself to help defend his country. “The Federal government would be doing only what it does now, in fur- nishing military instruction, board and lodging, clothing and equipment to its regular soldiers and at half ex- pense, for it would not pay salaries to the students. The states would be doing only what they should do, in furnishing educational facilities for their citizens. The young men at- tending the Vocational Army Schools would not be kept out of productive work, as the regular soldiers are. ‘When the soldier goes back to civil- ian life, his productive capacity is not increased, but when the graduates of the Vocational Army Schools go into their trades, occupations and profes- sions, their productive capacity and earning ability will: be increased many fold. “Under the Vocational Army School plan, 90 per cent of the youths of the United States would become fit to defend their country in time of need.” The Bemidji Daity Pioneer| SYSTEM WRONG. The recent development in the Twin Cities in regard to collecting $500 as a political donation from a state official has brought forth some interesting facts. State Auditor J. A. O. Preus who, according to the Republican State Central committee, failed to donate his $500 toward campaign expenses. Mr. Preus in a statement filed showed that he spent $3,300 at the last election. With the additional $500 it means that a state official in order to be elected must spend his first year’s salary at the election. There is something wrong with a system that makes it necessary for competent men to spend a year’s sal- ary for the office they seek. The Court of Last Resort. Around the stove of the cross roads grocery is the real court of last re- sort, for it finally over-rules all others.

It is in the country where man expects to receive full value for’ his money that this remedy is most appreciated.
