It confirms in law the responsibility of the Federal Government for the individual's right to work. This simply formalizes what has been generally admitted now since the early days of President Hoover's administration—that government bears a definite responsibility for maintenance of the Amer- ican standard of life. There also is a provision for the “budgeting” of jobs fon the nation as a whole, and for the scheduling of public works programs with the aim of supplying [-0f men. work when private industry is unable to provide it. This also is familiar practice, having been the main enlistments. This is easier said than done. The men who have had several years of military training—who are real soldiers and would make the ideal enlistees—are for | the most part allergic to khaki by now, and reasonable inducements would have little effect upon them at least for a while. Later perhaps, if the opportunities of civilian life do not measure up to their expectations, they may be more interested in reentering the Army. Ironically, it might take a depression to make a volun- tary enlistment program work. There are many exceptions, of course, but general experience has been that voluntary enlistment in peacetime does not yield an especially desirable type There was little comparison between the enlisted men and the lower grades of officers of the Regular Army before the war and those of the Army age in values of work of various preferred to “I earned over fifty dollars.” kinds will be discouraging to many. | OFTEN MISPRONOUNCED: Ticklish.
