THE PRESIDENT AND THE ARMY

The Chicago IrIDunes special
story that President Taft never saw
the secretary of wars special report
on the condition of%our Pacific coast
defenses before it was submitted to
congress, may be true; but the
Tribune correspondents statement
that President Taft disagrees with
the secretary as to our preparedness
to resist an invasion is entirey erro-
neous, as proven by the presidents
own comment on the secretary's re-
port:
The people of this country
will never consent 70 the main
tenance of a standing army
which military experts will pro-
nounce sufficiently large to cope
In battle with, the standing
armies of the greater powers.
should they get by our navy.
avoid our harbor defenses and
descend upon our coast.
That is not a disagreement with
expert opinion. It is merely a COM
ment upon a state of facts. Tech
nicaliy, in other words. the force is
not sufficient to resist an invasion;
but we have a navy to resist the in
vasion before it reaches the coast
and a skeleton army to recruit upon.
Experts do not speculate upon
probabilities; they take conditions as
they find them, and approve nothing
short of perfection. They find the
force inadequate to resist an inva-
sion. The president doesn't say 1t is
adequate; he merely says the coun-
try would not stand for a military
organization such as experts would
declare adequate. and concludes IL
that leaves us helpless 20 be IT,"
Hard to get an argument out OF
that.
