Newspapers anda periodicals
throughout the country are carrying
on the crusade for larger organized
militia, to provide force OF trained
men in the event OF national need. and
repeated warnings from those who
really understand the deplorable ma
val and military unpreparedness Of
the United States are being more gen.
orally needed.
The military establishments OF the
various states are passing the word
along and the following bulletin is
sued by the National Guard Of Mary
land is equally applicable to Hawaii:
STATE OF MARYLAND,
Office OF the Adjutant General,
Annapolis. 18th December, 1914.
EuIlet.R No. ).
The following editorial in the Eve
ming Sun, Baltimore. 26th December,
1914, is regarded as of interest and
Importance to the National Guard and
is, therefore. published fer the infor-
nation or all:
THE NATIONAL GUARD.
This cCuntry's hostility to large
standing army is partly Inherited from
English thought and feeling, and part
ly due to the conviction that II is un-
necessary by reason OF our isolated
position. In England large standing
army has been viewed for generations
with suspicion, because of the feai
that 1t might be used against the lib.
critics Of the people. And even in the
face of the tremendous forces organ
lied on the continent and ready for
use almost at moments notice, Brit
fish statesmen refused to institute
compulsory military service or to In
crease the regular military force to
anything approaching the. numerical
proportions OF the German, French
and Russian armies. This attitude is
in accordance with English traditions
and with the spirit which has inspired
English political development, which
has placed the preservation of popu-
lar freedom above the fear of attack
or the desire Of aggression. But what
the English might have done and
what they probably will do after this
war-was to provide for the systenlat-
ic encouragement and stimulation of
military training by such generous ex-
penditures and by such recognition
as would have tempted all CLASSES of
citizens to become members OF volun-
teer organizations. Had this been
done as thoroughly and persistently
for the last 10 or Is years as the stu
alton demanded. Great Britain would
not have been forced to wait for
months to put forth her power until
she could xiek" raw recruits into
shape, and until the -hay-foot, straw
foot rien from her shops and facto-
ries and fields had learned the rudi-
ments Of military EDUCATION EN
We are not likely. in the near fu.
iture sat least to ind it necessary to
call million men together against an
invading enemy. But If the unexpect.
ed ever should happen. it Is vitality
important that we should not be in
the condition In which Great Britain
found herself at the beeinning of this
war. There Is q safe middle course
between British army unpreparedness
and German overpreparedness and
that Is by increasing our volunteer
militia forces and bringing them mp
to the highest standard Of efficiency.

Government PRINTERS
TO GET 3O-DAY LEAVES
Congress Makes It Possible to
Abandon Custom in Vogue
for twenty-five Years.

The new general deficiency law, en-
acted by Congress in the closing here of
the session, contains a provision which
will make it possible for employees of
the government printing oflce to enjoy
the benefits of full thirty-day an
nual leave in the present fiscal year in
stead of having only twenty-six days
off. as has been the custom for the last
twenty-five years.
The controller of the Treasury in a
recent decision held that the employees
of the printing Office were entitled to
the full thirty days leave. but the
public printer found that he did not
cision of the controller. owing to the
fact that he had made up his estimates
for the current fiscal year on twenty
six-day leave basis.
Convinces Congressman.
F. c. Roberts, an employe Of the
printing Office, who made the appeal to
the controller of. the currency, which
resulted in the decision in favor of
the employees of the government print
ing Office, appeared before the appro-
priations committee Of Congress and
succeeded in convincing them that his
appeal was just and an item of $66.000
was inserted in the general deficiency
bill to enable the public printer~-to
comply with the controllers decision.
Besides giving the public printer the
authority to grant to all the employees
full thirty days annual leave, the Gus
tom which has prevailed for some time
of deducting legal holidays during the
interval of the leave period will not be
allowed. AS far as leave with pay is
concerned it puts the employees of the
printing Office on the same footing as
the other departments.
