manufactured 100000 rounds Of ball
cartridges. Outside of this arsenal we
have four or five commercial firms now
manufacturing just such ammunition
for the Government. These firms have
each been awarded contract calling
for 100000 rounds, and in time OF ne
cessity their total capacity would prob
ably be from 100000 to 100000 rounds
per day. Among these firms are the
Remington Arms Union Metallic Cart
ridge Company, Winchester Repeating
Arms Company, United States Cart
ridge Company, and the Peters Cart
ridge Company.
As we are assured of enough Infantry
and cavalry rifles, and the ammunition
with which to fight them, our next
thought is of our supply Of ammunition
for artillery. OF such ammunition we
have not enough for the few field guns
on hand, proportionately less for those
that should be on hand, no possible
way of manufacturing enough In the
entire country IL called ON to do SO
quickly, and no ammunition field trains
with which to carry 1t to the guns in

army, and not nearly enough ammunl-
ton for those guns which we now have.
Ammunition of this kind is manu-
factured at Frankford Arsenal. The
estimated capacity of that arsenal Is
1000 rounds per day, running every
hour out of the twenty-four. There are
one or two commercial firms outside Of
the Bethlehem Steel Company which
supplies the Government with small
quantities, who could equip themselves
In time so as to augment this amount.
The American and British Manufactur.
ing Company has furnished limited
number Of shrapnel, and could prob
ably be relied upon for assistance. The

statement that, given few months
time, they could equip themselves to

Inasmuch as years would be required
10 give our army the necessary back
bone Of artillery it behooves us 10 set
the wheels in motion now. Our infan-
try and cavalry can be increased speed
lily as compared with artillery. As re-
CARDS rides and ammunition for these
two branches, we are reasonably well
prepared. Gen Crozier, Chief Of ord
nance, at recent hearing before the
Military Committee stated that he eX-
pected to have on hand by Dec. 81, 1912,

Firing Big Gun at Fort Wadswortii.

In America there are probably fewer
than POO rifle clubs. We are not, in
true sense, Il shooting nation, al
though the National Rifle Association
IS doing everything TO make us one.
1t is gratifying to learn, however, that
rifle practice is on the increase. Al
though England for some years has
been unable to defeat our teams Of
eight ten or twelve men, IT would be
safe TO wager that an English rife
team, composed Of 10000 or more, could
easily outshoot an American team OF
equal numbers.
Congress is fully aware Of the situa-
tion as it is to-day. That body has
been informed time and time again by
high officials in the army of our de-
iiciencies down to the smallest detail.
I'm the event Of serious trouble the War
Department must not be censured for
military disasters brought about by any
lack Of preparedness. The officers OF
that Department have begged and i'm
plored for appropriations ana the au-
thority to do things, but their efforts
have produced but little.
War is terrible calamity, one Of the
most awful things Il nation may ex-
perience. 1t costs lives, money, and
prosperity, and yet the average Amer
lean citizen believes this country inn
mune from it, Our position may well
be compared to that of a house owner
who carries too little fire insurance.
He saves big premiums for years, but
when n fire does come and wipes him
out, il is too late to place more III
surance, and he suffers In consequence.
Americans must realize that II war
ever comes to us and finds us in our
present condition, 1t will be too late for
Congress to make appropriations, too
late for the arsenas and commercial
firms TO start manufacturing field guns
and ammunition. Then all our wealth,
our resources, our intelligence, will
count for naught and the invading en-
emy upon whor we may look down
now rs being ineffective and not COM
parable with ourselves, will walk into
the United States just because he has
n full equipment Of guns. Il sufficient
supply Of ammunition, and trained
body of artillerists to do the firing.

Running twenty.four hours a day,
our arsenals and commercial firms
would take sol working days to make
up this deficiency II they turned out
1900 rounds per day. Our coast fortl-
fications, as far as guns are concerned,
are pretty well supplied. Ammunition
for this branch Of the service is, how
ever. woefully lacking In quantity. The
citizens Of this country must not inSlg-
Inc that because our seacoast bristles
with forts. these alone will prevent an
invader from landing troops. Fortlfi-
cations are primarily to stop hostile
