PREPARE FOR WAR.
WOOD WOULD ESTABLISH HEAD.
QUARTERS AT ATLANTA.
chief of staff Says Americans are
Prone to Confuse Military Fore
sight With Militarism.

Atlanta, Ga, Dec. 19.-That it is the
plan of the war department to estab-
lish a brigade infantry post at Atlanta
was tr otement made here tonight
by CO eonard Wood, chief of staff
Of 3 >nited States army. Gen Wood
- ne guest at the banquet given
: lis honor by the local Chamber
Commerce.
He declared that Atlanta for the in
fantry and Oglethorpe for the cavalry
posts were the mid-Atlantic strategic
points Of the mobile army When
the brigade post could be established
at Atlanta, Gen. Wood said, would de-
pend upon when congress enacted the
necessary legislation and provided for
the funds.
Gen. Wood strongly advocated a
military reserve force IN the United
States and outlined plan by which
it could be maintained az nominal ex-
pense. He suggested that a short
term Of enlistment would be an in
ducement for securing recruits to the
army. Upon the expiration OF the
term Of enlistment he advocated keep
ing the men on the reserve list Of the
army so that they would thus be
available in time of war. This, he
said. would increase the strength of
the armed forces without increasing
the standing army and it could be
arranged at very little cost.
THE American people," said Gen.
Wood, ''are a warlike people but un-
fortunately are not a military people.
Too often they mix up militarism with
military preparedness but should not
confuse the two terms"
He added that it was not his pur-
pose to preach militarism to the
American people, but expressed The
opinion that this rich and powerful
nation should keep itself prepared;
TOR war"
while war 10 not now foreseen." !"
cssi. 'yvosai asserted 1T sa,iss at -some
at any time and when it does come
it may come quickly"
He commented on the fact that 1t
has generally been the good fortune
Of the United States never to fight
with a first-class power except when
the power was hampered by other
enemies and the United States was
assisted by allies.

that the surveying corps Of the South
Carolina Western road is now going
through the county laying out the
probable lines that will be selected
for the road from Florence to Allison,
and If the expectations Of the COM
pany are realized the work on the
construction will be started in a short
while. The promised rights Of way
are being signed up, and these must
be complete before the work will be
started and the promises made to the
road must be carried out. There is
every indication of this being done
for the people are very anxious for
the road and they are willing to give
all that they have promised.
The construction force is busy at
work now between Lydia and Tim
monsville and it is thought that the
proposed line to Timmonsville will
be ia operation in a short while, for
the country is level and the line a
short one.
