LAND FORCES
INADEQUATE, SAYS
SECRETARY TAFT

Minneapolis, June IA note of
warning to the country because of
the inadequacy of the land forces OF
the United States. was sounded here
last night by Secretary of War Taft.
The speech was made before the Min
neapolis club, which had prepared a
banquet for the distinguished visitor.
Taft made no special reference TO
danger Of aggression from any coun-
try.
The secretary said that while the
present army was capable, the fact
that there was only $4,000 actually
under arms, its weakness could be
seen at glance. Compared with the
navy, it is deplorably weak He ex.
planned he did not want to minimize
the importance OF the navy as the
country's real strength naturally lay
in its land forces. He called atten-
ton to the fact that the Notifications
on either coast we're only half manned
and that one of the great needs OF
the army in addition to more men,
was large addition to its officers, SO
the volunteers could be properly
handled in time of war.

showed that the money appropriated

gineering chemical building, $4,000;

Questions Necessity.
senator Burns spoke against the
bill, principally upon the ground that
the additional sums asked for were
not absolutely necessary. He said
that he was personally interested in
the university. but he could not per-
nit himself to support the appropria.
ton OF money which was soreiy
needed for olner building enterprises
In the state, il the demand were not
an essential one. He showed from
statistics that special appropriations
for the university within four years
equalled $1,z00,000, and that $780, 900
VIII be spent within the next three
years, which money has already bee,
appropriated. He said that there
would be 100000 spent by the state
in building in this city next year, and
ne could not justify still further ex.
penditures. He also alleged poor
management on the part of the uni
versity authorities in the expenditure
OF the states money. In regard to
the proposed method of dividing the
sought appropriation, he said that the
plan decided upon would only turn
out doctors faster, and on the other
hand would lower the standard of the
school. He claimed that the argu-
ment that expenses were high here
would of itself induce students to at
tend other schools, and he did not
think that they especially desired to
come here for a medical education.
His principal argument, the enormous
cost to the state, was sustained by
the passage OF the bill appropriating
$4,000 for the correspondence school,
and the perpetual expenditures from
the states Golfers within the next
three years.
Stout for Democracy.
Senator stout made short but
pointed address in favor of developing
social training in the university. He
forciDly denounced aristocracy and
advocated democracy. He said that

the girls as we'll as the boys.
