Night Editor Nat Thompson A STRAW BALLOT. The Daily is being deluged with communications concerning the pro- posed military training. At nearly every student meeting the same p rob- lem is taken up, and in the majority of cases it seems as though the main point in issue is being overlooked. The board of regents will meet Wednesday, December 1, to consider the resolution sent up to them by the faculty. The point that they must de- cide is really the one that interests us at the present, and this is whether or not it is advisable to install military training in the University, and not as to how the system is to be worked out. We are prone now to consider the ways and means of applying the system, but this is a question to be reserved for a later stage. If the regents can be convinced that compulsory training is a thing that should be provided for Michigan stud- ents, then they cannot alowa them- selves to be held back because the ways and means of treating the prb- lem do not readily present themselves. If, on the other hand, they are satis- fied that- Michigan does not want com- pulsory training, then a simple way out of the situation is seen. To help the regents ascertain the opinion of the undergraduates onthis one point it is planned to take a straw ballot the latter part of next week, putting before the voters the one i- sue outlined above. CRAFTSMtEN CLUB INITIATES NEW MEN AT RECENT MEETING Twelve members were initiated in- to the Craftsmen club at the meeting of the organization Saturday night. Rev. Courtland Miller gave an inter- esting address. A musical program was furnished by Howard Finste- maker and Melville F. Smith. Paul E. Gibson was elected to the office of 1st vice-president. John G. Mead, '17P, was appointed in charge of the Craftsmen team, filling the vacancy caused by the resignation of Harold A. Mills. An informal meeting will be held Saturday night. TREASON OR MILITAISM ? CORRESPONDENT HAS DIFFERENT CONCEPTION OF DUTY TO THE STATE. Editor The Michigan Daily:- In The Daily of Nov. 20, Mr. Thei:s took occasion to remark that those o us who oppose military training at Michigan and the imposition of a gen- eral military system in this country are traitors, men without a country, and guilty of high treason. Indeed! High sounding words those and worthy of analysis. Few will deny that the individual owes a duty to the state, but as to what constitutes that duty there are differences of opinion, and because I do not believe a man's first duty to his state is military service, is absolutely no reason why I am to be branded as a traitor. There are men in this Uni- versity who are fitting themselves to serve the state in the larger sense; for the battles of peace are always greater than those of war. Who will say that ? the student who is preparing to be- come an engineer, a doctor, a lawyer, or fitting himself in a general way for service to mankind is not preparing to render a greater service to his state than the West Point man? The latter is chiefly taught, as a future militarist the destruction of life and how to bring about destruction in the most scientific manner while the former will devote his energies to constructive service. Again, we are called unpatriotic, and Professor Hobbs at Wednesday night's meeting of the Forum said he was ashamed of the un-American spirit shown by the speakers who spoke against military training; but it seems to me that Professor Hobbs and those who support him are the ones who are guilty of trying to impose something un-American, for a military system ever has been an American ideal, Such system it is generally admitted had its roots in Europe; therefore who is guilty of un-Americanism? As to patriotism, after all what is patriotism? I deem it to be love of one's country and the true patriot must have a sincere desire for his country's welfare. _Consequently I cannot see why in order to be regarded as a pa- triot a man must be in favor of pre- paring for that which he professes to be against. Big armaments are not built for peace, they are built for war. You us- ually get what you g after. When a man sows wheat he does not harvest a crop of corn from that field. If you sow the seeds of peace you get peace; if you sow the seeds of war you get war. Tae your choice. Who is the greater patriot in Ger- many today, von Hindenburg or Lieb- necht, Kitchener or Bernard Shaw in England, Roosevelt or Jane Addams in the United States? The question an- swers itself when we remember that a real patriot desires the welfare of his country, and since war can never benefit a state but is always a detri- ment, even to the nation that wins, it logically follows that the warriors are not the real patriots. Therefore Mr. Theiss is laboring un- der a delusion when he says that those who oppose war or preparedness which leads to war are unpatriotic. And neither he nor anyone else can have any foundation in fact for the1 theory that the United States has no place for the peace loving man or woman. On the contrary the people of this country have no use for the mili- J JUST R ECEIVED1 The Principles of DYNAMO ELECTRIC MACHINERY By PROF. B. F.
