REPORT OF THE
CHIEF OF STAFF
Large Number of Officers on
Detached Service the Bane
of the Army.
CAVALRY ARM ANTlQUATED
PRESENT FORCES COULD NOT
PROTECT THE COUNTRY.

washington. Dec. 24-The most urgent
need Of the army OF the United States
at present is an adequate remedy for the
evils resulting from detached service of
officers. says Major General J. Frank
lin Bell chief of staff, in his annual
report made public today. He also says
that the time has arrived when the
United States can no longer AFFORD to
maintain an inadequate army for peace
reeds nor an army with an antiquateo
organization"
According to General Bell. the uumber
Of officers on detached service is 69l. The
result is characterized as very disastrous
and among other things is given as the
first cause for the large number of de-
serticns among enlisted men. General Bell
dwells az length upon the bad effect Of
Young and inexperienced commanders, up
on whom responsibility falls in the ah-
ssnce of officers. He says the only way
.bis can be remedied is by legislation.
Country Unprotected.
General Bell says that 10 is a '-discour-
aging fact that in case of a sudden out
break OF hostuities with a first class ma
tiOn there arc not-sSufficient troops IN

The infantry arm is referred TO as too
weak numerically for the services re-
quired of II even in the time of peace.
In proof OF this General Bell says that
since Jan. l. 1898. many regiments have
spent more than half their time in a trOp-
teal climate, insufficient time therefor be-
ing allowed in the United States for the
officers and men TO recover from ore

The presidents physical tests for Off
GERS is praised having produced an
Increased interest in physical culture and
the general care of health among off
GERS. He adds that some test and some
physical examination has come to stay
as part of the American military system.
The old days Of forming an army. with
more or less efficiency. out of raw re-
cruits. is past. he says. The idea that all
that is required to make soldier out
or a man is to put him in uniform and
place a rifle In his hands is denounced
as dangerous TO the ma ton. and one that
cannot be too strongly opposed.

there is no such thing as pulling. To
speak OF horse pulling cart was, he
