England. or Russia. They are our allies in this great war. They will be benefited by our winning this war. and they certainly should be compelled either to fight in the armies of the United States and commingle with our troops or be placed in separate regiments and commanded by separate officers of their own nationalities. over whom the American officers should exercise authority. or else they should be deported to their native country. to which they owe allegiance. so that such countries might impress them into the military service. It is unfair to draft our own native American boys into the military service and to permit onethird of the men who are of the draft age and capable of rendering military service. and who reside xVithin the United States. to escape by simply stating they are "not citizens." The effect of this has been to require twothirds of the population to furnish the full quota of soldiers for the Army. and in some small communities every American has been taken and only foreigners remain. In other communities where a large per cent of the Americans have been taken the foreigners remain to fill their good positions and to enjoy the blessings of comfort and peace while the American boys fight the war.
