DRILLING OF YOUTH
(By Associated Press.)

San Francisco, Cal, July 17.-Champ
! Clark, speaker Of the house of repre-
sentatives, was inspired by the recep.
tion of the Liberty Ben mere today to
discuss the need of greater military
preparedness to preserve to citizens
of the United States that liberty of
which the bell is an historic symbol.
In the course Of his remarks, he
said.
81 differ toto coelo with the pro-
ponents of peace at any price That
is an amazing, demoralizing, de-
grading doctrine.
"On the other hand | am utterly
opposed to those who advocate large
standing army, and to those Who adj
vocate navy equal to the two biggest
navies in the world | am not lingo.
God forbid | hope most profoundly
there will never be another war--par-
ticularly another to which we are a
party, but knowing that human nature
has not changed a jot or little since
Adam and Eve were driven with flam-
ing swords from Paradise, l am in
favor of putting the country In such
posture that if war should, for any
reason, become necessary, we may
emerge from it conquerors, as we have
been in all our wars
Towards the consummation OF this
plan | am in favor of doubling the
number of cadets at West Point and
of making it obligatory upon the secre-
tary of war to detail an army officer
to any school, college or university,
which will furnish a minimum of two
hundred students to drill. In that way
and at the least possible cost, we
would in a few years have enough
drilled men to officer a volunteer
army of a million soldiers, If needs be.
"In fact there would be wisdom in a
scheme by which in addition to the
cadets educated free by the govern
ment at West Point and Annapolis,
any boy possessing the prescribed
qualifications might on reasonable
terms be educated at those two great
institutions. The surplus West
Pointers could be used to advantage
in drilling the youths of the land,
while the surplus naval graduates
would make splendid officers for the
great merchant marine which Presi-
dent Wilson and some of the rest of
