Abstract

The United States declared against Britain in 1812. The next 50 years saw the expansion of American states and territories through the west, however growth was curtailed by the costly American Civil War, which broke out in 1861 over the Confederate States' wish to continue the practice of slavery, and the Union's wish to preserve the union. By 1865 some 620,000 people died, making it the most costly in US history. The next decades up to World War 1 saw large migratiuons from Europe and massive growth in the US economy.

Abstract

The article offers the text of the Selective Service Act, which was approved on May 18, 1917, by the United States Congress. The President is given temporary authority to increase the size of the Regular Army by imposing a military draft. The 14 sections of the legislation include topics such as the selection of officers, voluntary military service, establishment of local draft boards to review claims of exemption from the selective draft, and mandatory registration of potential draftees. Sections 2 and 3 define the issues of who can be drafted, the use of paid substitutes in military service, and state quotas. Exemption from selective military service because of religious conviction is mentioned in Section 4.
