THE PUBLIC FORUM

! FOR EX-SOLDIERS.- as an ex-
soldier would like to call the atten-
ton of all ex-soldiers of regular army
/ in regard to the military training
camp founded by Major Leonard
Wood. He asks all business men to
join, and intends to make officers out
of them to take command of a VOlun-
teer army. Why should a lot of men
! be led to the front with a lot of IN
trained officers, to be shot down like
dogs? Is that all that Major Gen.
Wood thinks of the young life of this
country? With unframed officers at
the head of an army, this country
would have the same experience it
had in Cuba in 1898 with the 9TH
New York volunteers, when the Off
GERS and men stampeded and dropped
their arms and the regulars had
trouble to round them up. And also
as Col Roosevelt led the Rough
Riders into the trenches at San Juan
Hill with plyers, cutting barb wire
fences, and the Spanish troops pop
ped out on them. And the 10th u, S.
Co. came down over. the hill and
saved the Colonel and his Rough
Riders. This will show the young
men of this country what unframed
officers will do for them. They say
in the army that it takes three years
to make a trained soldier. And that
is true, for have six years of it in
the regulars.
So it will take five years to make
an officer. Why does not Major Gen /
eral Wood take all Of US ex-regulars
who have six or more years expert
ence in the army and make officers
out of us? We could take better
care of our men than the business
man could. It's time that all ex-reg-
ular soldiers protest to the war de-
partment in regard to this action of
making officers out of business men.
