Capitol Civic Work.

Arnold w. Drummer, the noted New
Work architect. addressed the men,
bers OF the Harrisburg Chamber OF
Commerce, at the Harrisburg Club. on
Architecture and the City" and en-
phaslzed the opportunity for a great
civic center in Harrisburg, grouped
about the Capitol and the park exten-
sion to the east. "What is good for
the State is good for the city. and
what is good for the city ia good for
the State" he said, so It behooyes
each to cooperate with the other for
the Identification OF the districts ad-
jacent to the Capitol. You have a diff
ficult problem 10 solve here, but one
capable OF a big solution. You have
started right and believe you will
continue So"
Mr.. Drummer made a plea for trees
in the business sections. He said that
Americans shy from trees in front OF
their stores. but in Europe they have
learned that trees make their business
streets more attractive. He declared
that civic center is absolutely essen
tlal for the proper expression Of any
city, and that city planning is moth
ing more than program for the fu-
ture. the success OF which depends
entirely upon public support

country and of every sort will insist
that when we get peace again we shall
have guarantees that it will remain
and that the instrumentallties Of JUS

strumentalities Of force.
81 believe that the spirit which has
hitherto reigned in the hearts of
Americans and in like people every
where in the world will assert itself
once for all in international affairs.

GARRISON ARGUES
I. F0RPREPAREDNESS
Secretary Of War Says Large
Force Is Necessary.
RESERVE ARMY OF 100000
Favorable Conditions To Be offered
To Civilians To Enter the Serv-
iee-Present Inadequate
Provisions.

ashington.-Compulsory military
service is declared by Secretary Gar
rison, in his annual report just made
public, to be the only resort OF the
United States in providing an adequate
defense, should citizens fail to enlist
in the continental army proposed as a
reserve to the Regular Army.
Secretary Garrison throws down the
gauntlet to opponents of military pre-
paredness in this declaration: "lf
the nation requires certain service and
offers the most favorable opportunity
for the citizens to furnish such serv-
ice, and, Notwithstanding that, 1t can
not secure such service, It must then
resort to some method of compelling
the service"
Mr.. Garrison makes this plain state
ment after discussing the prospects of
raising reserve army Of 100000 men
through voluntary enlistment with
respect to the annual installments of
$4,000 men for the continental
army" says the Secretary of War,
the question undoubtedly will be fire.
quently asked, can they be secured?
viii you get the men? There cannot,
of course, be categorical answer to
this question. Nobody knows; but
this does not in any way alter the
course which we should pursue. With
respect to the continental force. the
most favorable conditions will be pro-
vided for the citizens to enter its serv-
ice. The minimum of time will be re-
Quired, the maximum of compensation
will be provided; and If the volition of
the citizen does not result in the secur.
ing of the needed number, there will
be complete demonstration of the
inability Of any volunteer system to
produce results"
The details OF the Garrison military
program previously have been made
public. Briefly the plan calls for the
increase Of the Regular Army to 141,-
900 officers and men. A reserve to be
known as the continental army"
would be raised in three installments
of $4,000 men each. These reservists
would serve six years, three the first
with the colors, during which they
would receive annual intensive train
ing in field camps. With the plan in
complete operation the continental
army would always comprise 100000
men with the colors. The Regular
Army of 141, 200 and National Guard
Of $4,000 more would bring the entire
military forces up to $4,000.
Holding to the ancient prophecy
that there would be wars and rumors
Of wars and that nation would rise
against nation and kingdom against
kingdom, Secretary Garrison boldly
asserts that weakness inevitably re.
suits in overthrow as the abundant in.
stances Of history demonstrate both
with respect to individuals, cities and
nations" Continuing, Mr.. Garrison
says: IF we should properly prepare
our minds to be strong, so that we
can reject evil, we should likewise
make our physical force strong in
order that We may maintain the right
as against those who would physically
impose the wrong upon Us"
