ARMY TO HAVE MORE MEN

Defense Plans Call for Increase in
Field and Coast Artillery.
PRESIDENT STUDYING BILLS.
Substitution of 16-Inch Rifles 70,
Lighter Guns viii be Urged

president Wilson yesterday took IN
the Army reorganization estimates
lie plans a conference with Represen-
tative Hay. OF Virginia. chairman of the
House Committee on Milatary Affairs
soon, at which the program to be fol-
lowed by the Administration will be
decided upon
u is known that Representative ITay
Is in favor Of confning the increases
IN the Army for the most part to the
Coast ARTILLERY and artillery branch
Field and heavy artillery regiments
are to be created and the number of
field guns viii be at least doubled. In
addition it is expected that the plans
10 substitute the 16-inch rifles for the
smaller bores now in use along the
coasts win be brought TO the front so
soon as Congress meets.
II is understood that Representative
Hay and his colleagues in both lous es
of Congress are strongly opposed to
the increase in the cavalry and infan-
try arms proposed by Secretary Garri-
son in his plan now before the Pres
ident. The manner of creating the
likely to become a subject for differ
ence of opinion Members of the Mil
itary Affairs Committee in both houses
favor a militia reserve.
A majority of these committee mem
bers are said to favor a plan through
which militiamen would receive some
thing like $4 a month pay This. they
aver wOuId immadiafaIv nonuIa riza tho
militia and create a reserve army of
any numerical strength desired
Another matter which the President
is trying to smooth over il the friction
which exists between Secretary of War
Garrison and Senator Chamberlin ana
Representative Hay, chairmen of the
Senate and House Committees on Mill
tary Affairs. Last year both refused
to accept recommendations by Secr1ta-
ry Garrison, because. they claim, he re-
fused to give reasons, and the Pres
iden will try to prevent this year.

TO GIVE BIG BAZAR.
Arranged for by Permanent Committee
of St. Anne's.

At largely attended meeting of the
Permanent Committee Of St. Anne
parish held yesterday in the Guild
Room Of the church it was arranged to
hold big bazsr in the State Armory,
Biadtn Street on November Is, 16 and
IT, much the same as the one held
last year, but on a larger scale.
Instead of having the color scheme
q sort of go-as-you- please affair, and
left to the taste and judgment of
those presiding at the many booths,
the consensus Of -opinioH IS that one
color shall prevail throughout the
bazaar, or two colers, those of autumn,
yellow and green
8 Most Of those who had booths last
year, viii have the same this year.
The .Woman's Auxiliary will be in
charge of the supper, and the Junior

MR.. GEORGE c. THOMAS
THRILLS AUDIENCE
Tells Men How to Multiply the Zeal Of
Parish---A Peculiar Opportunity.

Last night a representative gathering
of men and large committee of ladies
at St Annes Chapel. heard MIR. George
c. Thomas, of Baltimore. tell how to
cooperate for increased activities in
church work.
He frankly told the meeting that St.
Anne's Parish is not doing its best for
missions All Saints church, Freder-
ick, Md. was cited as probably the ban
ner parish of Maryland With COM
municant list of 334 souls. last year.
that parish contributed s2,500 TO the
mission cause. st. Michael ard All An
gels Church, Baltimore, of which Mr..
Thomas is a member, invigiroa,cd the
duplex envelope system by an every
member canvass" The result was
an increase from $1,s00 to s4a00,s1 100
of which went to the mission increase
Furthermore, ii was noticed that
church attendance was improved ana
Christian zeal was quickened.
As Portland. Ore, once planted 100.-
600 rosehushes in one day for ag reat
rose exhibit, a paIi7h can plent tho
ose of Sharon in one Sunday. The
method is first TO meet for consecra-
ton together al HOLY Communion. to
hear a sermon on the subject: then TO

Parish. The visit is a real pleasure.
for the people are expecting i. ID ey
talk about al phases of the chlrch's $
interest and then say what they will
give weekly for Parish support and for
missions. No gift can be too small.
nor none TOO great. ccnsecratcd LOYALTY
prompts the amount.
The mission end of the envelope
should be especially emphasized, and il
is regularly found that increased mis-
sionary offerings bring increase to he

urged that the clergy ard wardens and

indispensable cooperation of the la

oils, he said. you have a peculiar op-
portunity. The Capital of the State,
the seat of the United States Naval
Academy. and other assets make An
napolis a source of widespread infiu-
ence. Every midshipman should be
converted into a missionary as he trav-
els in the naval service around the
world. st. Anne's Parish should and
can exert its influence in that direction.
Quite a number of the men and wo-
men present made brief remarks after
the collation.. heartily endorsing Mr..
Thomas suggestions, and eyincing a

NOW SEND RAD|OGRAMS
KEEPING SOURCE SECRET
Solves Problem Which Has Con-
frOnted Naval Shategists Some
Development Of Wireless.
MESSAGE DISGUISED.
Highly Satisfactory Tests Made in War
Maneuvers by the Atlantic Fleet.

Sending or radiograms by vessels at
sea without revealing even the approx
innate location of the ship dispatching
the message problem which has
confronted naval strategists since the
discovery of wireless communication
virtually been accomplished.
Experiments of that order made hy
the enemy" divisions of the Atlantic
feet during the recent war game were
said by naval officials today to have
been highly satisfactory. During the
time the two forces were engaged in
the maneuvers, one moving to attack
the coast and the other to defend 1t
the vessels were in constant communi-
cation with the navy yards and supply
stations ashore, but neither force was
able to determine the location of the
other by the use of the wireless.
The messages were disguised by
means known only to the Navy De
partment, and, for the first time in the
history of the war game maneuvers
they gave the vessels intercepting them
no indication as to where they came
from or what force of wave length had
been used in transmission
Ordinarily naval officers say. an ex-
perienced operator can estimate the
location or proximity of a vessel by
listening in or receiving messages it
is sending That feature of wireless
communication has been realized as q
danger to navy in time of war and
means to combat it have long been
sought by the Navy Department
Plans for another war game, to be
held next spring, already are being
prepared by the Naval War College. at
Newport. It is understood that these
contemplate more elaborate maneu-
vers than any yet held extending from
the northern coast of Maine to the
Panama Canal. At that time ii is ex-
pected the entire naval force will be
available, including the vessels now
doing duty in Mexican waters. Haiti
and other places.
Rear Admiral Benson, chief of oper-
ations, has gone to Newport, r. l.. to
attend the Naval War College confer
ence on the recent war games. The
discussion is being held tosay feet
officers participating with members OF
the War College staff.

Denver.-In . formal statement t.
sued in connection with the Lusitania

quests the people Of Colorado to
place implicit faith and confidence
In our President and those other ma
tional officials having in charge our
relations with foreign nations during
this critical time" The statement
says:
I'VE are confronted with q situation
that calls for the assertion of the com.
mon sense Of our people. The hyster-
ical appeals OF the demagogue and
jingoist should be suppressed and the
calm, sober judgment OF the people
prevail. The time is not yet when
this nation should be dragged into the
maelstrom Of war. 1t is true that
many events have occurred of late that
have struck at our national pride. but
30 far these are all subject to peace
able settlement. At best the temper.
ary endurance Of these events is az
nothing when compared with the hor
rors and waste OF an impetuous and
ill-advised conflict

no longer difficult to Imagine circum.
stances that would drive us to this
terrible alternative but let us not re-.
sort to this final extremity until all
other means are exhausted. This is
not q time for idle, nl-considered
mouthings.
1T would be deplorable indeed. II
the murderous hysteria which seems
to have seized the people Of Europe
should become fastened upon our own
people. II outlet for our patriotism
is desired, let US put the full force OF
public opinion behind those officials
of our national government whom we
have entrusted with the duty of hand

now confronted with. These officials
will be guided ~ what appears to be
the deliberate Judgment Of the people
Of the nation and It is my prayer that
the citizens Of Colorado will stand In
the forefront Of those who are crys.
talking the sentiment. that we will
have war II honorable peace is impos
sible, but until the last effort made tc
maintain honorable peace proves In
vain. nothing shall be done or nc
word uttered that is likely to precipt
tate war.
II therefore request during thi,
critical time, that the people of Colo.
