propagandists were busy night and (
day. The increasing cost of living was ,
of grave concern to wage earners (
Scores of strikes in industrial plants j
were fomented by Austro-Gernian plot
ters financed by Count von Bernstorff .
and aids of Dr. Constantin Theodor
Duniba, the Austro-Ilungarian Ambas-1 ,
sador, who had been sent back to Vi
enna.
About this time The Associated
Press published an intercepted lett< r
from Dr. Alfred Zimmermann, the
German Foreign Secretary to the
German minister to Mexico, entreat
ing him to persuade the Carranza gov
ernment to take the side ot the ( ent
ral Powers in return for which the
Germans were to guarantee to Mexico
I the return to her sovereignty of Tex
I as, Arizona and New Mexico.
The proposal was that Mexico should
approach Japan, the alley ot Gieat
Britain and endeavor to form an alli
ance in which Germany Mexico and
Japan would make war on the United
States. Japan, at the time of the ex j
pose, made a prompt and vigorous de- |
nial. The Mexican government also
issued a disclaimer. But the mr.sk had
been removed and Germany stood re
vealed in all the hideous features ol
her moral obliquity. War now seem
ed only a question of hours.
Previous to this, the luO.OOO rail
road workers of the country belonging
to the union Brotherhoods, who had
long endeavored to obtain a shorter
work day and better pay and upon
whom devolved the responsibility of

for the Allies, threatened to strike |

'I
waiting the paralysis of its arteries
f trade when President Wilson brot
olh sides together and forced thru
Congress the Adamson law which
ranted the men’s demands.
While awaiting Germany’s actual j
utting into effect of her decision to j
esume ruthless submarine wp-i'fsre ^
•resident Wilson in a number of
peeches showed ciearly that he was
io longer hopeful of ‘keeping the
'nited States out of wai.” Indeed, al- 1
hough that was one of the slogans of ^
Vilson men in his campaign for reel- -
ctiou in 1916, when he defeated for
ner Justice Charles Evans Hughes,
he President made it plain soon after
lis second inaugural that tile people
>f the United States were prepared to
ight. Some months before this the
President had made a tour 01 the coun
ty to sound out its sentiment toward
jntering the struggle. Everywhere he
net with enthusiasm and indications
hat the people wanted war.. Mr. Bry-|
in in a political speech a year or two*
previously had declared that, in case;
jf hostilities “one million men would i
rush to arms in the United States be-l
tween sunrise and sunset.” But the
desirability of utilizing the volunteer
system when virtually all the other
belligerent nations were employing
conscription was a moot question.
The United States never had been aj
military nation. Her regular army es
tablishment of 75,000 men seemed
pitifully weak when England and
were sending millions of fighters to
the battle line. President Wilson at
once urged the passage of a conscrip
tion bill by congress by which men |
from 21 to 31 were to be drawn by lot. |
It was called the “Selective Service
Act” and, based upon the experiences
of the other Allied nations, was intend
ed to raise an army without demoral
izing essential trade and industry. The
law was enacted after an exciting but
short' debate in both Houses on April
28, 1917 just three weeks after the
United States declared herself to be
in “a state of war with Germany.”
Subsequently a similar declaration
was issued against Austria.
Draft machinery was put in motion
and, despite the derision of the Ger
man General Staff, “the most remark
able achievement in the history of all
warfare” according to General Peyton
C. March, the American chief of staff
was accomplished. Training camps
were located throughout the country
and within a year nearly 2,000,000 arm
ed and equipped soldiers were landed
in England and France. A second draft
registering men from 18 to 21 and
from 31 to 45 was orderel to bring Am
erica’s fighting force in Europe up to
4,850 000 men, but few of these were
called as the Central Powers shortly
after collapsed.
