washington, Dec. 12.-Abandonment
OF the smaller army posts of the country
and the concentration of the nation g
land fighting forces in regimental and
brigade posts is advocated in the an
nual report of Secretary Taft, Just is
sued. Fort Smelling is not mentioned
in this section Of the voluminous report.
but Fort D. A. Russell, Wyoming, is
one of the posts recommended for en-
with Fort Leavenworth and Fort Riley,
Kansas, and Fort Sam Houston, Texas.
:, 1.-The proposition to abandon mil
11tary posts, generally arouses more or
less opposition says Mr.. Taft, Hbut
the effect Of this ought not to be al
lowed to act as a deterrent in secur-
ing the increased efficiency of the army
that would result from it's drilling and
maneuverirg in those larger bodies in
which it would necessarily be handled
in time of war. Such training can not
now be had at any military post which
the government owns. The lessened cost
OF maintenance and administration is
another argument for the concentration
Of the mobile army in regimental and
brigade posts.
"The change to brigade posts ought
to be made gradually, and. we should
avail ourselves of those posts which
are nearest now in point of capacity
to brigade posts, and which have reser-
vations sufficiently large to permit the
maneuvers of brigades or larger bodies
Of troops.' So il. 49, =
Urges Coast Defense.
The Importance of the development
of the nation s seacoast gdefenses is
emphasized in the report. Regarding
this, Mr.. Taft says:

has been, of the very first Importance

fed, hostile fleet, in the opinion of
