WHATPEOPLE
ARE 81 WING
School Bond Issue.

To the Daily EXPRESS have just
read Professor Ramey's letter in re.
gard to the needs of the Chickasha
schools.
note that we need another build
ing and from the crowded condition of
the present buildings, we undoubtedly
ought to have another building.
But let's see the matter from bus
mess standpoint, as well as from the
needs" of the schools.
The three buildings, north, west
and south, cost the city about $4,000.
Suppose we construct another build
ing, similar to one of these,-only that
we put $4,000 in its construction in
stead of $4,000. How would it do
then to allow $4,000 to the high school.
Where does the necessity come in for
any $4,000 bond issue.
Now between our needs" and our
necessities" there is a great step.
And, financially. between our real
need of $4,000 and bond issue Of
$4,000. there is such a marked differ
ence, that every voter in the city
ought to vote against this proposition.
Now, there's another item to be con-
sidered if we vote the bonds now,
and cannot come into real use of the
us $4,000 in interest, for the dead and
idle time between this and September
16.
Now let's defeat this issue of bonds,
in April or May, approve an issue of
$4,000, put the building in in the
summer and save all this interest
waste. These are the observations of
a TAXPAYER.

WAR UPON PAIN!

Pain is visitor to every home and
usually it comes quite unexpectedly
But you are prepared for every emer
gency if you keep a small bottle Of
Sloan's Liniment handy. 1t is the
greatest pain killer ever discovered
Simply laid on the skin-no rubbing
required-it drives the pain away. Ii
is really wonderful.
Mervin H. Soister, Berkeley, Cal
writes: Last Saturday, after tramp
ing around the Panama Exposition
with wet feet, came home with my
neck so stiff that l couldn't turn.
applied Sloans Liniment, freely and
went to bed. TO my surprise, nexi
morning the stiffness had almost dis
appeared, four hours after the second
application l was as good as new"

also an estimate Of available shipping
for a military expedition to the
United States. 1t says reasonable
estimate shows that Austria Hun
gary with a total trained force of
! 100000 men, could send 10000 men
with all necessary stores and animals
across the seas within 407 days in
two expeditions: France, with 5,000,-
600 men, 404,226 in thirty days; Ger
many with 100000 men, $4,000 in
3O.S days; Great Britain, with sos 5,00O.-
GOO men, 10000 in twenty-seven days;
Italy, with 100000 men, $4,000 in
thirty-fiye days; Japan, with 2,212,000
men. 2sS,S67 men, in forty-one days,
and Russia, with 100000 men, 104.
074 men, in forty days.
Presenting the military problem OF
the country the report continues:
Without superiority on the sea or
an adequate land force there is
nothing to prevent any hostile power
or coalition of powers from landing
on our shores such part OF its trained
and disciplined troops as its available
transports can carry. The time re-
quired is limited only by the average
speed of its vessels and the delay nee
essarily consumed in embarking and
disembarxing."
The report then makes this state
ment of the military problem
From what has been stated, we are
forced to the conclusion that we must
be prepared to resist combined land
and sea operation of formidable
strength. Our principal coast cities
and important harbors have already
been protected by harbor defenses
which, by passive method alone, can
deny to. an enemy the use of these
localities as bases for such expedi-
tions.
'The enemy being unable to gain
foothold in any of these fortified areas.
by direct naval attack will therefore
be forced to find some suitable place
on the coast from which land oper-
ations can be conducted both against
the important coast cities and the rich
commercial centcgs in sthe interior.
Long stretches of coast line between
the fortified places lie open to the
enemy. The only reasonable way in
which these localities can be de-
Tended is by providing mobile land
force of sufficient strength so located
that it may be thrown in at threat
ened points at the proper time.
ut has just been shown what the
strength Of these expeditions might
be, as well as the time required for
any one of them to develop its whole
effective force, hence it can be seen,
when we take into consideration the
possible two months delay provided

CAN THE U. S. BE INVADED

With preparedness as the para
mount issue before congress, made 81
by conditions that have arisen since
the Great War began and by th'
stress placed upon it by the presiden
who voiced sentiments that have beer
crystallizing rapidly during the pas
few months, we take it that every
thoughtful citizen is making it part
Of his business to give earnest study
to the question AS far as the ma
jority Of US are concerned, the prob
lem is a comparatively new one and
the open-minded attitude is therefore
particularly needful if we are to de-
eide ii upon its merits and not from
preconceived notions which may OF
may not have been based upon con-
sideration Of actual facts.
One of the often and emphatically
asserted objections to the United
States entering upon program Of
national defense is the claim that It
is utterly useless since no foreign foe
could ever land an army on our shores
TO successfully attack us. Views
differ widely on this question and nat
urally, being one which calls for some
technical knowledge of the military
art, it is no easy matter for the ordi-
nary layman to form an intelligent
opinion on it. While military experts
are generally believed to be preju-
diced witnesses in this important
case, we take it that the testimony Of
the war college is well worth consider
ing and we therefore print below a
portion of the report Of this division
OF the general staff of the United
States army.
The report opens with a consider
alton of the military problem con-
fronting the United States from which
it reaches the conclusion that "the
safeguard of isolation no longer
exists" since "the oceans, once bar
riers, are now easy avenues of ap-
proach by reason of the number, speed
and carrying capacity of ocean-going
vessels. 1t declares that the sue
cessful outcome Of the wars in which
the country has been engaged has
given the public wrong impression,
inasmuch as careful study of these
wars reveals "a startling picture OF
faulty leadership, waste Of lives
and property, costly overhead charges
augmented by payment Of bounties to
keep up voluntary enlistments, undue
of all these wars and
finally reckless expenditure of public
funds for continuing pensions.
The report contains a table of the
strength Of the seven leading
foreign powers as of August, 1914, and

by the navy, that our system should
be able to furnish 100000 trained and
organized mobile troops at the out
break of the war and to have at least
100000 more available within ninety
days thereafter. Here, however, II
must be pointed out that two expedi-
tions alone will provide a force large
enough to cope with our 100000 mo-
bile troops, and consequently we must
at the outbreak of hostilities provide
the system to raise and train in addi-
tion at least 100000 troops to replace
the losses and wastage in personnel in
cident to war"
