Alexander Powell, a member of The Chicago Tribune staff of European war correspondents arrived in Chicago re- gently. The first personal accounts of the invasion of Belgium by the Ger mans to be published in Chicago, were supplied by Powell, with pictures taken by Donald Thompson, the Kansas pho- tographer.
 This war should be a great lesson to the United States" said MT. Powell when seen at the University club. "By 1t we ought to be able to realize our own pitiful weaknesses. It is to be hoped this realization will bring the much needed increase of national de- lenses.
 "No country in the world-at least no nation that can be called power is so criminally guilty of unprepared . ness as our own. It was the unpre- paredness of Belgium that resulted in the comparatively quick advance of the Germans.
 And yet the standing army of Bel gium was greater than our standing army has heen in years Belgium had

Against such a machine the untrained volunteer, no matter how patriotic and fearless, is an easy victim.
