Continuing. General Story says:

cure submarine mines in time to be of
service for our harbor defense.”
Even with complete material for tor-

“if a war was to mark out. we would

(Ion. Story is of the opinion that the
field artillery falls fifteen batteries
short of the number tactically needed
for the present infantry and cavalry
organizatolns. and in this connection
says: “There is no first-class power
which has so systematically neglected
ils field artillery as the United States."
in his judgment, the experience of
the Russo-Japanese war shows the for-
eign practice of having usually about
four guns per one thousand men In
better than the one proposed for our
service.
