MANY MILLION
SOLDIERS Will
SHOULDER ARMS
SHOULD EUROPE DO BATTLE
Army Strength Of the Nations
Involved

New York, July 31.-Greater than
all the armies ever before assembled
will be those called on in case the
countries which are parties to the
Triple Alliance and the Triple En-
tente are finally brought into the war
between. Austria and Servia, says the
European correspondent of the Her
aid. If the entire strength of the ma
tions involved were placed in the field
or if a fair proportion of them were
called out-they would make tn :
armies of past conflicts seem small
by comparison.
Servia-one of the little nations of
the world-has not much of an army.
Latest figures, prepared this yea,
show that her army in time of peace
numbers $4,000 men. Her war
strength is 100000, and in addition to
this force, she has an unorganized
body of men, who, in case of dire ne
cessity, could be called on for service,
numbering $4,000 more.
This body of men would be but a
speck compared with the tremendous
armies which would be called upon to
shoulder arms if Russia, Franc ana
Great Britain, composing the Triple
Entente, took up the cause of Servia.
Russia leads all the big countries
mentioned both in peace strength AMI
war footing, although her war footing
is but 100000 in excess of that of Ger
many. She has 100000 men in Tunes
of peace and 100000 as a war foot
ing.
France has 10000 for a peace guard
and 100000 as a war footing. Great
Britain has a peace footing of 254,000
and war footing of 10000. The to-
tai armies of the Triple Entente num-
Der 2,264,500 in times of peace and
the gigantic number Of 10,230,0OO in
times Of war. The same three coun-
tries have a combined force of $780,
600 unorganized men of military age
who could be drawn on in case of
emergency. This would make the
studendous number of men available
for actual service in the Triple En-
tente, exclusive of those of servia,
nearly 2O,OOO,OOO.
The totals of the three countries
composing the Triple Alliance-Aus-
tria, Germany and Italy, are almost
as staggering. The total war footing
of the combination is 100000; the
peace strength 100000. The same
countries have an unoragnized force
of men of military strength which
numbers 100000, or about 14,0OO,OOO
men who could in a pinch be called
on for service.

for issue $5OOOOO,OOO of currency
which the banks can get upon appli-
cation under that law. This is in ad-
dition to the resources of the treasury.
I'm view Of the closing of the for
eign stock exchanges, the action of
the New York stock exchange, of
which l have just learned, in closing
temporarily, is a reasonable measura
of protection to American interests"
President Wilson also turned his
attention to the financial situation.
Before breakfast he; conferred with
Secretary McAdoo. 1t was announced
at the white house that every effort
would be made for organizing the fed
eral reserve board and putting the
new reserve system in operation.
Relief measures contemplated, if
necessary, include depositing funds in
Chicago, New York, Philadelphia AMI
other cities.

Tariff Causes Closing Of
Jersey Iron Mines.

Rockaway, N, j., December
4.-The Wharton Steel company
went out of operation at niber-
MIA yesterday, when it discharg-
ed 60 men, the last of its en-
ployes. No ore has been mined
here in several months, and the
managers attribute this to the
new tariff, which has taken a.
way all their trade, they Say.
All the mines at Upper and
Lower Hibernia, owned formerly
by the Glendon, Andovel Hiber-
mia and Bethlehem Steel coL2pa-
MES, are owned by the Wharton
Steel Company. Until a few
years ago from 800 to 1000 men
were employed at the Hibernia
mines and that place was then a
thriving village OF more than
1000 persons. After the death
of Joseph Wharton, a few years
ago, the business began tv dwin-
die. Until two years ago the
output of the mines was 10000
IONS of ore a month.

Promises Made to Be
Broken.

Party promises, like lovers
oaths, are made to be broken.
Hardly anybody outside of the
asylums set very much store Oh
the solemn declaration of the
Democratic party that the Un-
del wood bill would actually re-
duce the prices of the necessities
of life. The Democrats did not
believe it themselves, but they
we're hopeful that something
might happen to confirm their
diagnosis of the economic ills of
the nation. The people who W
ted them in power were willing
to give the party, which on its
record of past performances had
nothing to offer but promises, a
fair trial. Up to date the ultim-
ate consumer knows that the
high cost of living problem was
never so robust. His attenuated
pocketbook tells him that in un-
mistakable terms. But we must
remember the caution of the Pre-
sident and his fellow tariff tink-
ers that the beneficent results of
Democratic tariff legislation
would not come suddenly, but
would be of gradual growth. We
are still waiting. Democratic
| pledges thus far have been "thc
substance of things hoped for;
the evidence of things not seen. "
But we can be fair as we'll as
| hopeful. We do not know how
long it takes to prove the merits
of a Democratic tariff law; no
time limit was fixed. But be-
fore condemning what appears
now to be plain humbug, critics
should possess their souls with
patience and keep their eyes op-
