FOR NATIONAL NAVAL RESERVE.
Assistant Secretary of Navy Points
Out Advantage of Militia for
sen Service.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12-The leading
Secretary Allen to Secretary Long relative
to the naval militia is his strong in
dorsement of the plan for the organization
OF a national naval reserve. He points out
that the experience of the past year has
suggested certain changes in the original
pan Tor this organization as contained in
the bill submitted to the last session of
congress and he therefore urges that it be
again pushed with the amendments pr.-
pared by Lieutenant Commander W. II. III
Switzerland, who was for a part of the
year IN direct charge Of the naval militia
bureau OF the navy department In sub
stance. that officer says that as the per-
sonnet act has made the term of service
OF enlisted men in the navy four years
the same period should be fixed for the
enrolment in the naval reserve and thar
an officer should be promoted in war time
with the regular officer with whom he
holds the same date of commission n is
also recommended that steps be taken for
the organization OF permanent coast
signal system from the retired list of the
navy, and the employees of the light house
and life saving service. There are several
thousand of these men and with a small
appropriation and an annual drill for q
few days each year they would be compe-
tent, the report says. TO take up their du-
ties Immediately upon the outbreak of
war. With retired naval officer in charge
of each light house district. and an otTi-
Ger in charge at the navy department and
the necessary paraphernalia at the nearest
navy yard ready for use, this necessary
adjunct of war could be put in working
order in twenty-four hours.
During the past year the legislature OF
Maine passed an act for the establishment
Of naval militia, as did the state of
Minnesota The department undertook to
afford the naval militia of the country an
opportunity to drill ut sea under service
conditions and the offer was accepted by
the governors of all but one of the states
having militia organizations The report
states in detail the result of the cruises
in each case. setting out the reports of
the naval officers who accepted as inspec-
tors and noting their criticisms without
reserve.
