GARRISON IDEAS
MAY CAUSE FRICTION
War Secretary's Opinions at
Variance With Those of
House Chairman.

Secretary of War Garrison has
thrown a bomb into army and Con-
gressional circles by his recent state
ment in which he outlined his views Of
army policy,
, In that statement, briefly, he favor
ed the two-year term for enlistments in
stead Of the present four-year term !;
favored the building up of an army re-
serve, better training for the national
guard and a system that would make 1t
easy to raise a volunteer army in case
Of war
In taking this stand. Secretary Garri-
son has declared himself fatty against
the policies advocated by Chairman
Hay Of the House Committee on MIL
itary Affairs. has taken issue with the
General Ainsworth school of military
thought, and has aligned himself
suuarely with the ideas advocated by
General Leonard Wood. chief Of stan
of the army, and many other of the
most liberal and able officers OF the
army.
Under the pressure of Chairman Hay
and Senators and Congressman who had
been lad to take the Ainsworth view,
Congress recently Increased the length
of the enlistment term from three years
to four years. Chairman Hay tried to
increase it to five. Now, 1t looks as II,
under pressure from the Administration.
the term would be shortened to two
years, and a new era in American mill
tary history begun.
Not only will many of the ablest army
officers welcome such policy. but 1t
vii. be welcomed by the National
Guard The idea Of encouragement to
a policy that will make as large a pro-
portion as possible of the men in civil
life trained to arms is in consonance
with the National Guard idea of fos-
tering the country's military strength.
Secretary Garrison did not put forth
his announcement at the instance of
General Wood. In fact. General Wood
took no hand in its preparation though
he warmly approved it. 1t develops
that Secretary Garrison has been doing
a lot Of studying of military PROPOSE
tions on his own account. He did this
before he knew he was coming into the
Cabinet. Mrs. Garrison canes of an
army family, and this is a reason why
the secretary has taken a keen interest
in matters military.

PHYSICIANS FEAR
WEAKNESS OF POPE
Plus X ListIess After Attack of
InfIuenza-IIlness May Bring
on Heart Failure.

ROME, March 21-The condition of
Pope Plus Y was not alarming today.
said the Vatican physicians, but they
admitted it to be a possibility that heart
failure might attack the -pontiff If he
did not soon rally from weakness. Since
his recent influenza, Pope Plus has been
listless and inactive, showing a weak
ness that Prof. Marchiafava would like
to see disappear.
1t is the opinion OF his physicians
that the death of his sister, Rosa Sarto.
has played a large part in the indisposi-
ton of the Pope, and for that reason,
his remaining two sisters and brother,
Angelo Sarto. have been frequent Vat
lean visitors.
