Opposing universal military training blocks in Congress
The Democrat majority in Congress voted 110 to 17 against universal military training for young men. The piece argues that while Indiana's last Legislature favored universal service, national leaders like President Wilson pushed for peace rather than militarism, and criticizes Republicans for delaying ratification of the Peace Treaty and hindering world peace efforts. It notes endorsements from women's groups supporting relief to famine victims in Europe and calls out partisan obstructionists in the Senate.
