Colorado Springs agree with her.
When Mrs. Boyd announced that she

for war purposes.
Until some such plan can be work
cd out, it will readily be seen how inn
portant it is that at times the larger
units be assembled temporarily for
the purpose of what may be called
war training
Irrespective of the purpose of the
temporary concentration Of the pres
ent division in Texas under Mai. Gen.
William H. Carter, and considered on
ly a school, the secretary said the ex
pense will be more than repaid in the
practical training received by officers,
upon whose shoulders will rest the
responsibility for the lives of our
soldiers in camp and their conduct IN
the field"
No better illustration of the value OF
divisional organization and training
can be given, he added, than to COM
pare the prompt and easy concentra-
ton Of the present division in Texas
with the cumbersome and slow as
sembling OF the old organization Of
the provisional division sent to San
Antonio two yeara age.

necessary to develop education, gem

Future Military Policy.

Future Military Policy.
Discussing the question of future
military policy for the United States
Secretary Garrison said it seemed to
be agreed that there are entirely too
many army posts at the present time,
and that many of them were not where
they were useful or desirable under
existing conditions.
Whether this situation should be
remedied," he continued, "by concen-
trating the army in few quite large
posts are into only as many as would
permit a regiment, at least, to be
quartered in each, have not yet formed
any definite conclusion in my own
mind Much may be said on each side
of this question.
Il hope when | get the time to give
this matter my most earnest consider
alton, with desire to reach CON
clusion that is best for the army
which, of course, will be that which
is best for the country"
The statement set forth the PR
mary objects which impelled former
Secretary of War Stimson to re-or-
ganize the army nto the existing
scheme of brigades and divisions, as
follows:
First, the definite assignment Of
staff officers and organizations to the
higher tactical units, which hereto
fore had always been done in times of
stress and confusion, and after war
had been declared or hostilities be-
gun; and, second, the higher tactical
training of the commanders, their
STATS and the organizations, so as to
make them effective.
Purpose Accomplished.
The purpose of the order insofar as
the first object is concerned, has been

ued, "the accomplishment of the sec

SO immediate, or easy of execution,
however Owing to circumstances
over which the army has n. e.atrol,
and as a result in large measure of
the necessities which in the past may
be said to have been vital to the de-
velopment Of our country, the army
is stationed in many posts and in many
commands. This scattered condition
prevents that practical training of

and wish him the greatest success.
Doc has made enviable record during the two sea-
sons which he has been member of the Richmond club
and his work is recognized by both the club and the
fans None of the local followers of the sport doubt
but that he will make good and that with vengeance
many of them predicting that the Hsville Hurricane
will in time prove of the greatest assets of the Wash

as the additional pitcher needed by the club and the
who will fill in the gaps next between the

two named hurlers and Joe Enge if he shows the form
next which he has demonstrated during the past
month, the Senator hackers say there will be nothing
