Uncle Sans military establishment
has come in for good deal Of home
criticism Of late. Foreigners profess
to admire 1t, but perhaps their good
opinions are insincere. The worse our
army Is the better for another army
that might 60 up against 1t. The Ar
my and Navy Journal recently can
vassed the subject and argued that
the current notion about low pay for
officers and men being at the bottom
Of the deterioration which Is alleged
Is wrong. 1t also declares that the no.
ton that West Point ideas are HARM
full to the rank and file is without
foundation. About half Of the COM
pnny officers, this paper asserts, are
promotions from the ranks or outsiders
who have never been to West Point.
Commenting upon this line of
thought, the New York Tribune thinks
that while the army pay is fair, yet it
should be increased. But the trouble
lies in the "undemocratic constitution
and methods" of the establishment, ac-
cording to this paper. 1t says, IF the
public could be convinced that there
were as free a career open in the army
to talent and application as there is in
Industrial and commercial pursuits
there would be no avoidance Of service
by youths Of ambition and energy"
Now, the Army and Navy Journal,
which champions the military side,
boldly asserts that democracy is at the
base Of the evils which are being criti-
cised. The ambition to get some
thing by fair means or FOUL invades
the ranks Of the officers as well as of
the enlisted men. While the enlisted
man seeks ITO get out Of doing things
that become a soldier the officer goes
one better and depends upon "pull'
to escape being disciplined. One rad
ical trouble, says the Journal, is that
the army "a full Of boys. It would
place the age minimum at twenty-five
years instead Of eighteen, as at pres
ent.
1t Is a matter of official admission
that the recruits who offer themselves
today are inferior to those Of few
years past. Perhaps the Tribune's ex-
PLANTATION that an army career is a mar
row one Is correct. For a hustling
young American to shelve himself in
an ar, " garrison Is to cause wonder
among his fellow men. Chances for
promotion to the lower grade commits
sions Is less than one in a hundred
and for high command not one in ten
thousand. As for adventure in time Of
peace, there is more Of that in running
Cross country trolley car than in
wearing the uniform Of Uncle Sam.
