TO apply themselves diligently their books There
are examinations preliminary TO promotion. and
they are Of such a nature to require officers TO
attend post graduate schools with various grades up

mort strikes a hard blow at the prevailing method.

ARMY WAR COLLEGE WORK.
General Bliss Says Success in Military Train
ing Comes Only from Constant Study.

Washington. Nov. 2Z-Brgadier General Tasker
H Bliss. in his annual report president Of the
Army War College. says that detailed study OF
the military problems confronting the United States
should form important part Of the work Of the
college under the direction Of the chief Of staff
General Bliss recommends the elimination from
the duties Of the college Of the collection Of mill
tary information" He also would eliminate any
special study OF materials Of war which while
in portant enough ne does not consider within the
proper scope of the War College. General Bliss
recommends that number OF officers be selected
at stated intervals for the study and the working
out Of great game. These officers he says
should be selected from those who would play an
important part in the execution Of plans adopted
in the event Of war.
In the selection % officers for post schools Gen
eral Bliss thinks that no difference should be made
in the case Of West Point graduates mo one"
he says, whether from West Point or elsewhere
should be excused from any work on the assump-
ton that he already knows good many Of the
things even outlined in the post school course
the West Pointer is not likely know so well as
the man promoted from the ranks. There is or at
least in years past there has been an unfortunate
tendency on the part Of officers. whether from
West Point or elsewhere. gradually to lose the
habit Of study. except as connected with the simple
routine Of their work and with 1t not only failing
to acquire the daily increasing knowledge necessary
10 keep them abreast Of their profession actu-
ally to lose much Of what they have already
learned In short It was process Of steady deca-
Geuce, eliminating in complete dry
General Bliss adds that the great secret Of Ger
man success IN military training is that there is
encoura cement be given TO the officers Of the or
gained militia 10 pursue the course of study laid
down Tor the post schools, and says in this way
the schools viii perform the additional function OF
insuring the maximum number Of trained regi-
