IS PLEASED
WITH COAST DEFENSES
/
Secretary of War Returns
From Inspection of Forts
Around N. Y. City.

Secretary Stimson. who has just re-
turned from New York where he inspect
ed the batteries at Forts Wadsworth,
Hamilton and Hancock, SAYS that New
York need not get nervous about the APP
proach of an enemy with such strong
defenses at it's front door. He added,
however, that the people must not let
the fact that the United States has
the belief that it is not necessary to
maintain an effective army that can be
modified rapidly.
The matters occupying most of the
attention of the War Secretary at
present are the propositions to abolish
the general staff and to increase the
term of enlistment to five years. Dis
cussing those propositions. Secretary
were detrimental to the best interests
of the army. The general staff, one of
the great reforms instituted by former
Secretary Root about ten years ago, the
reforms. he added, were all beginning to
bear fruit. The War College at Wash
ington and the staff and line schools at
Leavenworth. Kan, the Secretary added.
also have done great things for the
army. To abolish or abandon the gen
q long step backward. In his opinion
the proposed changes should be present
ed to Congress In the form of sepa-
rate bill, and not tackled as riders to the
army appropriation bill, in order that
there might be a full and free discussion
of their advantages and disadvantages.
Is Opposed to Increase.
Secretary Stimson is decidedly OPP
posed to any increase in the term Of
enlistment. He said such increase
would cause more desertions and make
1t impossible for the United States to
prepare gradually a reserve familiar
with military discipline and used to
the handling of arms
1T would go against our American
ideas" said the Secretary. Put a man
in the army five years and he becomes
united for any other kind of work.
On the other hand, with short period
of enlistment we could run in a few
the service and have to draw on in
case Of war well prepared force of
men who had been of use to their
country in commercial or industrial
life. 1t doesn't disorganize q company
or a regiment to inject recruits plen-
tifully. 1 am in favor Of short term
of enlistment Now, however. we are
trying to hold on to what we've got
three years I hope the people of the
country will back us up"

INCREASE IN THE PAY

Suggestion of Northeast Citi-
zens-Star's Attitude on
Water Supply Endorsed.

Six members of the Northeast WASH
ingtOn Citizens Association braved the
icy winds and icy walks last night to at
tend the January meeting Of the asso-
citation, at Northeast Temple. The sex
tet proceeded to transact business the
same as If there had been Q large at
tendance.
Evan II. Tucker, president Of the asso-
on proposed legislation. outlined what
the committee is doing. Calling attention
to an editorial printed in The Star De-
cember %. dealing with the subject Of
the water supply. he said it exactly ex-
presses, from the standpoint of the peo-
pie. what the association should stand
for. At the suggestion Of DR.. L. ID.
Walter the association Endorsed The Star

laborers in the employ Of the street
sweeping department will receive 81
day for the service IL resolution adopt
ed by the association receives the sane
ton of Congress. James NJ. Wood, for
mer superintendent of the street sweep
ing department, wanted the association
to oppose any increase in the salaries of
the Commissioners and other high-sai-
aired employees of the District until the
laborers in the street sweeping depart
ment are paid more money.
The laborers are paid $1.50 q day when
they are employed, said Mr.. Wood. ana
they are frequently laid off because OF
cold or wet weather.
DR.. Starr Parsons and s. Sowerbutts
objected to the passage of a resolution
opposing the increases recommended by
the Commissioners. They contended that
the adoption of such a measure might
make 1t appear that Mr.. Wood had
grievance and that the association was
playing into his hands.
Substitute Resolution Adopted.
Mr.. Sowerbutts offered q substitute
resolution recommending an increase in
the pay of laborers. which was adopted.
The association reaffrmed its position
on the public utilities bill. 1t opposes the
provision designating the Commissioners
to act as members Of that commission.
President Tucker said the association took
that stand because 1t knew the Com
misSioners already have more than they
can properly attend to.
Mr.. Sowerbutts spoke of the efforts
transfer measure adopted. What is
wanted, he said, is a fair and just sys-
tenn Of transfers between the companies,
and not system that Is calculated to
bankrupt both companies.
Public Park Proposed.
Prof. Percival Hall Of Gallaudet Col
lege said he is in favor Of the purchase
of the Patterson tract of ground near
the college, to be converted into a park.
His idea is that it should be such a
park as could be used for Fairgrounds
and as an athletic Geld for older school
children.
The association decided to discontinue
the committee on steam railroads and
have in it's stead a committee on pub
licity and mail service.

OVER BUREAU MEASURE
Animated Debate of Provision
for Investigation of De-
Iinquencies of Children.

IF we have the constitutional power
to gather statistics and facts with ref
erence to diseases of hogs and cattle
and sheep, 1t seems to me we have the
constitutional power to gather the data
with reference to diseases Of children
The Constitution was not made for hogs
alone but also for men. If we are de-
voting. as we are and properly, over
100000 year to the gathering of
statistics with reference to the treat
ment of diseases of cattle and hogs, and
similar matters. which indeed is proper.
it occurs to me that we can afford $780,
900 to put in the possession of organi-
cations caring for dependent children
such information as will enable them
to deal intelligently with this question"
Answer to Criticism.
This was the reply which Senator
terday afternoon to the critics of the
bill proposing to establish in the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor a
about the extent and causes and reme-
dies for delinquent children.
1T has been said." he continuedA that
this would have a tendency to start a
nursery In every state in the Union.
do not know but that that may be
true; but certainly a nursery is no more
unconstitutional or immoral than a pig
sty. We are engaged In precisely this
same kind of work, requiring the same
legal and constitutional authority and
the same responsibility of government.
| in almost every other industry and in
almost every other field Of interest, and
there can be no ground urged, it seems
| to me- from either a constitutional or
a moral standpoint, against securing the
information.
Opposed by Senator Hepburn.
Senator Hepburn, also Of Idaho. took
| the opposite view. He intimated that
much of the information which the chill
dren's bureau is to collect is already
gathered by the census Office, the bureau
of labor and other similar bureaus. He
also took exception to legislation that
looked to interference with families.
81 know Of some states that have a
pestiferous interference law, to be exc
cuted generally by the unmarried of the
country who know how to raise childi en-, "
Mr.. Hepburn said, I'm which they have
undertaken to interfere with the COM
munities and to say whether or not par
ents ought to be allowed to have pos
session of the child. That kind of law
would have taken Abraham Lincoln from
his parents care and custody and have
had him educated by these theorists and
interferers with the domestic economy
and system OF mankind.
Lincoln never would have been allowed
to live at home. poor as he was; his
parents would not have been allowed to
keep him. Some committee Of the descrip-
ton / have already stated would have
gone there and said: What, allow that
child to lie down there and eat corn pone
and hoecake by the hearth: he cannot
possibly amount to anything; We want to
take him down to the headquarters, where
we are drawing salaries for taking care
