Washington. December


FAVOR CHANGE IN CAVALRY
EQUIPMENT.-Ther is now returning
to the United States a board of cavalry
officers of which the president is Cen
eral f.. J. McClernan, who are experts
in cavalry organization, administration
and equipment, after studying the subject
abroad. They are expected 10 come TO
some valuable conclusions based on their
observations Of European cavalry. They
will come to Washington and are expect
ed to take part in the conference OF army
officers to be held here on January
There has been an animated discussion
among cavalry officers as to the best or
ganization Some officers believe that the
cavalry should stick TO its sabre OF lance
Others consider the sabre secondary
weapon, IL not almost an obsolete one
The latter maintain that the cavalry may
we'll carry the sabre for certain uses, but
that as a combat weapon there must be
dependence on the rifle. In other words
the cavalryman will be mounted IN
fantryman with the means OF hghtlng
on horseback. il need be, or on FOOT
There is likely to be- it is insisted, no
close range fighting. An ever-increaslng
range OF firearms has 10 large extent
determined the distance between oppos-
ing forces The sabre is branded as use
less because its range Is where 1t was TWO
thousand years ago-about two yards. IL
is suggested that the cavalry be supplied
with a bayonet and other implements
such as intrenching tools. This gives
rise TO the question whether it is not wei
TO guard against further increases IN the
burden carried by horse and rider
