RESERVE WAR FORCES
OF THE UNITED STATES

tain this strength caen state Is to be
allotted a quota based on its present
enlistment. Thus, West Virginia
which is now credited with guard
numbering 1921. would be expected
to increase that to 6,S26-and other
states in proportion. To accomplish
this, as well as the success of the plan
in its entirety, the government will
invite the cooperation Of the states
in an effort to encourage greater de-
gree of interest in the development
and efficiency of this branch OF ma
tlonal defense.
1t is believed by the officials of the
government that a patriotic appeal tc
the young men of the country to vol
unteer for training in the army will
enlist the cooperation OF men in all
walks of life.
One of the details of the new plan
contemplates the establishment Of a
government training camp in each
state during a period of from four to
six months every year. These are to
be run on a uniform schedule of train
ing to conform to the methods of the
regular army.
State Militia DetcOriated.
The army officials make no denial
of the fact that the state militia has
deterioted both as to numbers and
efficiency, and regret the fact that this
reserve has been permitted to depre-
ciate. The experience of Great Britain
ard, to some extent, Russia and
France, has demonstrated in the
minds OF these officials, the disadvan-
tage that would attend the mobillza-
ton of the national military forces in
the event of an emergency. There is
no dissent as to the immediate neces-
sity pointed out by officials of the
army Of bringing the national forces
up to a higher degre of efficiency
than is maintained at present. With
this end in view, the condition Of the
citizenry soldiery of all the states has
been looked into and estimates made
of the increases that will be necessary
to bring them up to the desired
strength of 500, 900. which, with the
regular army. would make available
within sixty days a well trained land
force of approximately 100000 men.
At the beginning Of the present Eu-
ropean war the peace strength of the
British army was 254,500, with re-
serve forces OF 545,500. making, a
normal army on war basis of $780,
900 men, without reference to the 2,

fSPGctAI TO THE TELEGRAM
WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. L.
1t has probably been forgotten by the
readers of this correspondence that
the information was given them a
number of months ago that the army
officers In charge of the militia of the
states were engaged at work upon a
plan to reorganize the reserve service
by putting 1t on basis as near that
to the regular army as 1t was possible
to do; that the plan contemplated a
large Increase in the numerical
strength OF the states guard and pro-
viding such military training, under
regular army officers and discipline,
as to render its efficiency decidedly
much more satisfactory than it now
Is.
At the time of that article General
Elliott, then in charge of the nation
al guard Of West Virginia, was spend
ing much of his time in Washington
in conference with members of the
war college and general staff. There
were conferences almost daily, and
General Elliott made more than one
visit to this city to discuss with the
army officers the business they had
in hand, namely, providing a large
and dependable reserve force from
the militia of forty-eight states,
which was anything but large and de-
pendable at that time, or this.
Now comes the sequel to all this
work which began in the months of
last summer, in the shape of a tenta-
tive plan which has been worked out
and practically decided upon as one
to be recommended by Secretary of
War Garrison in his forthcoming re-
port. 1t has not been formally made
public by the officers responsible for
ii, but it has been ascertained from a
thoroughly Trustworthy source what
the main provisions of the plan form
ulated are: In the first place, the
putting into effect of this plan will
require little. If any. legislation on
the part of the Congress, and its ap-
proval by the administration will
doubtless render useless the present
labors OF the not a few members of
Congress who are known to be busy
at the present time preparing schemes
embodied in their own resolutions for
strengthening the land defenses.
Regulars Not to Be Increased.
The plan that has been decided on
by the members of the war college
and general staff. as briefly outlined
to your correspondent by one who is
in position to speak with authority, Is
to take steps to place the militia on a
proper footing both as to material
strength and military efficiency. II
does not contemplate any increase in
the regular army. 1t is proposed to
build up the size OF the reserve force,
or the militia. from 12S.043 (forty-
eight states) to 100000. and to at
