FOR AN
ARMY OF 1,250,OOO

Plattsburg, N. Y, August 14.-The
United States has plenty of material
for a volunteer army of 1,250,000 and
all that is needed is a plan of utiliz-
ing it, Major-General Leonard Wood
said here today in statement on the
nations preparedness for war.
The chief need, he said, was Off
GERS. He advocated training college
students in their junior and senior
years along the same lines as now
are being used at the military camp
of instruction here.
General Wood said the country has
three sources from which to draw of
ficers from private life. First of these
he asserted, were men who had been
in the regular service of miliatia. Sec
ond, he would obtain officers from a
list of men kept by the war depart
ment and who have qualified by ex-
aminations. The third source would
be from military schools or institu-
tions in which some military train
ing is given.
For an army of 1,250,000, General
Wood said the nation would need 40,
900 officers. From these $500 should
be chosen each year for special
grades of the service. These men
eventually, he said, would have be-
come the higher grade officers for
volunteers.
Referring to military service Cen
eral Wood said:
"No one has right to consider his
discharge of duty as soldier as vol
untary. This duty is an obligation
that is binding upon all who are men
tally and physically fit and within
certain age limits. A man has nc
more right to speak of volunteering
to discharge his duties to the nation
volunteering to obey any moral law
or pay his just debts"
General Wood also took strong
stand against waiting until time Of
war to organize volunteer army
He said such a plan would be about
as effective as waiting until fire
broke out to organize a volunteer fire
COMPANY. Soldiers enlisted at such
times, he said, would not know what
was expected of them.
