EARLY DEFENSE
FOR THE CANAL
TROOPS TO BE SENT TO PANAMA
LONG BEFORE FoRTIFIcA.
TIoNs ARE CONSTRUCT
ED THERE.

Washington, April 1s.-About two
million dollars soon viii be expended
by the United States government In
fitting up officers quarters, barracks
and other living facilities for the
$500 troops which the government will
send to defend" the Panama canal
This item is interesting for more
reasons than may appear on the surf
ace. The fertilization of the canal will
not be completed for some years, but
the soldiers viii be sent there as soon
as living quarters can be provided.
The government learned sharp les
son from the Spanish war which can
not be better stated than i'm the
whimsical complaint Of one of the
swivel-chair heroes OF the war de-
partment at the time Il had my de
partment all organized and running
nicely and now il is all broken up"
That was the real trouble with the
United States army and navy. during
the Spanish war. The military estab-
lishment had been maintained on a
peace basis. and when war came the
government was unprepared. Since
that time the effort of succeeding ad-
lninistrations has been to maintain the
military forces on practically a war
basis during a period of profound peace
and thus offer the strongest guarantee
Of actual peace that could be provid-
ed. This is the meaning of the des-
patch of $500 armed troops 10 Panama,
Notwithstanding that the canal has
not been attacked and doubtless will
not be.
Services In Tropics To Be Longer.
Another development decided upon
by the Administration is that the per-
iod of military service in the insular
possessions will be increased, proba-
bly, from two years to three years.
This departure is due partly to scienti-
fic sanitation, which has made living
conditions in the tropics reasonably
safe and healthful, and also to the i'm
preston, If not belief, that congress
would not sanction an increase of the
standing army. Troops for tropical
service will therefore be drawn from
the large garrisons and in some cases
the smaller posts. TO obtain men
enough to go around. and the term of
service necessarily will be heightened,
thus giving some Of the men relative
ly little time in the continental United
States. The rapidity and smoothness
with which the recent mobilization of
troops in Texas was accomplished are
commented upon by military critics
here as in sharp contrast with the inef-
ficiency and consequent loss Of life at
tendant upon the preparations for the
war with Spain. The advocates of a
small army and of actual disarmament
are always busy and no doubt the
peace cause is making progress. But
it must be said that no administration
responsible for the preservation Of in
ternational peace has ever deliberately
and as a matter of avowed policy dared
to place its dependence against war
upon anything but men and ships and
guns.
