WOMEN TO PICK
DEFENCE FLAWS
Navy League Group Will
Explore Facilities in
Every State.

Washington, Sept. pa woman's
committee to ascertain the state OF the
defences of this country has been ap-
pointed by the woman's section Of the
Navy League. The committee Will
make a thorough survey of the facili-
ties for repelling invasion and report
70 the women of America through the
Woman's National Defence Conference
Of the woman's section of the Navy
League at the New Willard Novem-
Der 49,
The committee will be headed by
Mrs. Robert &. Hogan, OF Gainesville,
Md, former state regent Of the Daugh-
tiers of the American Revolution Of
that state. and its membership will in
clude fifty women from every state in
the Union. Eacn woman will be in
structed TO make a survey OF the dis
trict in which she lives and report to
the national chairman who in turn Will
report at the conference.
The investigators will be expected to
find out the total number Of men in
their districts of military age, the
strength of the. national guard and
naval militia and of all other organiza-
tons of military and patriotic nature
that might be counted on to supply
trained men. They will also make
survey of the woman's organizations
that could serve as hospital and emer-
gency committees.
women ought to take an active in
terest in the national defences," said
Mrs. Hogan tonight. "No class Of the
population of our country Is so vitality
interested in seeing to II that our coun-
try is provided with the military and
naval strength to insure peace as the
women.
"Particularly among women there has
been altogether too much ignorance and
indifference upon the subject. We be-
lieve that nothing will arouse the in
terest of women all over the country in
national defence so much as a report
written for women by women"
The committee believes that the
many reports on defence conditions
have failed to attract the notice of a
great section of the public because of
technical language. A gratifying feat
ure OF the woman's section work has
been the number OF women In the
Middle West, known as the home Of
the Little Navy" who have joined the
movement for adequate national de-
fences. The women of that section
have responded in fully as great a pro-
portion as the women OF the seacoast
cities.

Thinks Two Years Sufficient for

Iron r, rrisw- Bureau J

Washington. Sept. 25The impcra-
tive necessity OF immediate action IN
strengthening the army and navy was
pointed out to-day by Senator John W
Weeks. Of Massachusetts, one OF the
Republicans being frequently men
toned in connection with the Pres
Dental nomination next year.
Senator Weeks favors an increase IN
fast battle cruisers and submarines
and urges the building up Of a strong
reserve force for both the army and
III. navy. HIS plan for the reserves
would be 10 have enlistments OF one
year, or not more than two years with
the men on their retirement from the
regular establishments entering the
first reserve, then the second, and final
ly the third.
The Treasury, the Senator said, was
in the worst condition in twenty years

Democratic administration had 20 issue

meets" said Senator Weeks, "of doing
certain things which are fundamentally
necessary for the organization OF
suitable military and naval force for
the 9efence Of our country. Some OF
these should have been done long ago,
and all Of them could have been pro-
vided for last winter, when we were
wasting time considering a bill for the
government ownership Of steamship
lines.

II mean fundamental things such as,
for instance. a suitable military re-
serve. a naval reserve at least strong
enough TO man all the ships we now
have ready for service, and the estab-
lishment Of a merchant marine so
aided by the government that It would
be available for auxiliary naval pur-
poses in time Of necessity. ! think the
best plan probably for getting suit
able reserve of, say, 100000 men for
the army, would be to begin short term
enlistments. Let the men be enlisted
for one year, with the understanding
that at the end Of that time they would
pass into the first reserve, then into
the second. and finally into the third.
The first reserve would constitute a
second line Of defence, while the sec
