PeaceabIe PrOciivttIes Not After All Oh
JectiOnable.

To TIVE EDITOR oF THE SUN Sir: II. n ex
presses an unusual opinion regarding the lighting
inclnstons and pugnacity OF the youths OF this
city In the present day. In these days OF peace
congresses and metropolitan reform the walls
and objections when they do come are generally
TO the effect that certain parts OF the town are
too rough aud too much inclined to settle disputes
and differences through the medium Of the
physical powers, but III. B." lAments the fact
that there are too few nstIc bouts the highways

He says that he Is past 90. and with al due re

that the days gone by held forth better conditions
than those now at hand Such q belief is only
natural. for with them the sunset Is nearer al
hand and their days OF youth and happiness seem
brighter than perhaps they really were.
As matter OF fact Il II dlficut to understand
how a citizen OF New York could regret that the
danger OF rows Is not great enough Would he

the average civilian who applies for a
commission is not tempted by the initial
pay, greater than he could command
Cas General WOOD says in a banking
house as a clerk, but is fired with the
military ardor and fancies OF youth.
II this is the correct view, "a reduction
of the Second Lieutenant's pay To the
amount that obtained before. the recent
increase by act of Congress, which re-
duction General WooD advocates. would
not produce better class of civilian
officers In fact, we cannot see the logic
of his proposal from any standpoint.
The army pay bill was justified by
the fact that il was thirty years and
more since the then existing scale was
adopted, and in the interval there had
been considerable increase in the
prices of articles, products and equip
ment which officers must buy, whether
they rank as Generals or only as Second
Lieutenants.
In urging that vacancies which cannot
be supplied from West Point be filed in
all cases possible by graduates Of other
military schools and the militia, IA well
as from the ranks, General WooD was, OF
course, on sure ground; but we reoollect
that in November, 1907, when there were
3Sl vacancies in the grade OF Second
Lieutenant, not one of the l25 colleges
and technical schools appealed to by
the War Department furnished a single
applicant, and that only fourteen en-
listed men took the examination for a
commission at the import tant Fort
Leavenworth post.
AT present the main reliance Of the
War Department must be upon raw
civilians when there are vacancies. In
normal times the opportunities for get
ting on in professional and business life
are 80 numerous and inviting that young
men do not turn to the army for a ca
reer unless the fever is in the blood
To increase the complement at West
Point if capable subalterns are needed
is the proper remedy, but it is not a
promising one, as Colonel HUGH l.
SCOTT can testify. Only last year the
Superintendent of the Military Academy
reported that the Corps OF Cadets was
seventy-three below its organized
strength owing to the failure of young
men to present themselves after they
had been appointed cadets.
