MORE TROOPS
And More Money Says Gen. Schofeld Who
Cites China as an u ustration.

WASHINGTON, Oct. - The annual re-
port of the major general of the army is
devoted almost wholly to a discussion of
the use of the military forces of the United
States in maintaining the federal law sgainst
domestic resistance and TO the necessity of
coast fortfications for defence against for
eigu attack. He maintains that the present
strength of TIE army is inadequate 10 the
performance of the service which msy at
any time be required The effective
strength of the army stould be considers-
bly, increased. This can be done at a very
small comparative increase in cost.
The report discusses the military necessi-
ties which may possibly arise of conflict
with foreign powers. The intimation is
clearly conveyed by General Schofield that
the lesson Of a nation like China with its
vide xtent and vast resources and wealth,
but unprovided with efficient modern mill
tary equipment, is worthy of serious con-
siderston by the American people.
General Schotield considers that the time
has now fully come when the people of the
United States should dismiss the over-con-
tidence born of past experience. "Conti-
mental isolation" he remarks, lis no longer
any security against formidable at
tack. No nation, however populous and
wealthy, can hone to maintain itself among
the great nations of the earth unless its
military strength is made by development
to bear a reasonable proportion to that
maintained by the other great nations. No
time should be lost in prosecuting the svs-
TEN of fortilication and armament hereto
fore inaugurated, until all the great sea.
ports of the country are placed in a salts
factory condition for effective defence
against and possible attack. The most
liberal appropriations for this purpose will
be the wisest economy
