OUR NEED OF AN ARMY.~
We Must Be Able to Meet Trained
Men by Trained Men.
One of the most astounding oi tin~
tenable theories still held by Amen
cum is that more men, more weight
or numbers, can succeed in war. it
is strttncc th‘fi‘ufter reading of Eng-
lundis training problem in the pres-
ent war leading men in public life
citn' still talk or {Tie-willing millions

of training. Quite aside from the
important little item that the neces-
sary trainers do not exist. it is known
a's a fact proved by the experience
of modern war that a you? orw‘ork
ol’ preparing the average citizen is
necessary before he can be sent to
the front as an eficctlve mill? Tl. is
not merely a question of drill of the
manual of arms, of the parade ground.
Do we rcullze thut 'not one American
in a hundred knoWs how to take care
or hilt own physical body under serv-
ice conditionh? Do we undéi-sfan‘d
how very few of us can march twett‘
ty miles or dig a trench? Do We
think we can all hit a flvetoot square
target at six hundrediyurds (legilng
out all quergion ol‘ the bull‘s eye)?
Is there‘ nnyh-eason to believe that:
Americans are as a whole physically
better than the Germans or Ruisians
or French? 01' course, if some seer
should assure us that in case of a
great war we should have swear. or
lso to prepare for it. we could 'eo’n- .
tinue on our happy-go—lucky course.
That has not been the history of the
way viars commence.
Today we see armies of -millions,
we see great military operations car-
ried‘bn thousands of miles away from
the home country. Witness the Brit-
ish st Sslonic'a. the Canadians in
France. the Australians in Egypt.
We can no longer hold a mere ocean
a barrier to that power which con-
trols its waters. In__cther words, we
must admit that a great campaign in
