Plan to Enroll All Veterans Of Regular
Army Under q Certain
Age.

The War Department win recommend
to Congress during the next session the
creation of Il national military reserve.
consisting OF all hOnorabIy discharged
soldiers, under Il certain age-the limit
TO be prescribed by law-which may be
called upon by the President IN time Of
war
The general staff of the army is now
at work on the details of the scheme.
1t viii be submitted to Congress
1t Is proposed that the military re-
serve shall consist of former soldiers
who served honorabIy and faithfully
and who have returned to civil life. The
names and addresses Of these men, or,
rather, of those who would be willing
to be enrolled in the military reserve,
would be kept on file at the War De-
paItment
Once each year they would be expect
ed to report by letter to the depart
ment. Some slight compensation. prob
ably about $40 a year. would be paid
these men during time Of peace.
In the event Of war the President
would have the power 10 call upon eV-
cry member of the reserve for service.
Instead Of being forced TO put in the
field an army largely consisting OF re-
cruits, when the army Is expanded 10
its maximum strength IN time OF war,
the President would be able TO have q
well trained and efficient force OF sol
dieTs TO draw upon.
The general staff has already COM
pleted its plan for q coast defense re-
Serve, which would form part OF the
national military reserve. The plan for
! the coast defense reserve was originally
made upon the suggestion OF the Pesi-
dent.

Let them take down all the old dusty

will come in handy and will be literally
