191614381New York: The New York Call 1916. A pamphlet issued by the New York Call the daily Socialist newspaper affiliated with the Socialist Party of America reprinting the Welsh-Slater and Stivers Acts that were passed by the New York legislature and signed into law by Governor Whitman they became a precursor to teh federal Selective Service Act of 1917. This series of unprecedented "militarist laws" were passed during the "Prepardness Movement" leading up to U.S. entry into WWI and mandated military training for all boys age 16-19. There were also implications for labor unions included in the Stivers Act which allowed the drafting of any worker age 18-45 and the ability for the state militia to suppress strikes. <br /> <br /> The American Union Against Militarism which was founded in late 1915 and was the forerunner of the ACLU was the primary pacifist organization that opposed the laws and Darwin J. Meserole President of the New York branch contributes an introductory essay titled "The Challenge Must Be Met!" Also included is an essay by New York Call editor Chester Wright "If You Do Not Want Chains Then Join the Fight for Liberty." The rest of the pamphlet reprints the various acts. <br /> <br /> Stapled wrappers 16 pp. Stamp of notable Socialist organizer Fred Schwartkopf to the top of the front wrapper. Wrappers split along the spine below the first staple wear and creasing a good copy of a scarce pamphlet. No record for this title in WorldCat although a copy exists in the records of the American Union Against Militarism at Swarthmore. Postal authorities often stopped circulation of the AUAM's publications so it's possible that this title was among those proscribed. The New York Call unknown
