emergency. The government should
manufacture its own powder, guns
and other equipment.
We must put an end to the graft
of the army contractors-both big
and little-and the only way to do
it is through government manufac-
ture of war materials. l expect to
be able to supply my readers with
some interesting material on this
point in the near future.
There is ample evidence to justify
the charge that the men who are
making fortunes out of the manu-
nancing the war scare which is
occupying SO prominent a place in
the newspapers and magazines these
days. We will endeavor to turn the
spotlight on these gentry.
The kind of military establish
ment l have suggested, may be
maintained for from $10O,OOO,OO0
to s125, 100000 a year.
The jingoes on the other hand,
would compel us to increase our ap-
propriations for the army to from
100000 to S500,000,OOO a
year. In addition to that they con-
tend that we must adopt some sys-
tenn of compulsory military service.
Compulsory Service
In fact, you cannot have large
army without compulsory service.
The average American boy will not
voluntarily enter the regular army.
The experience of the war depart
ment fully sustains this statement
Last year more than 5000 men
were connected with the recruiting
branch of the service. Their activ-
tiles touched every section of the
country and after the hardest kind
of work, they succeeded in securing
enough men to take the places of
those who deserted or whose terms
of enlistment had expired.
We have not reached that point
where SIT a month and blue un-
form will satisfy the ambitions of
our boys, and l trust the good God
will see to it that we never reach it.

an army should we have in this
country?
One distinguished general says
100000 men in the standing army
and 100000 men in the reserves.
Another equally distinguished
general says 25O.OOO in the standing
serves
The Secretary of War thinks we
should add 10000 or $4,000 to our
army of $4,000, and Congressman
Hay of Virginia, Chairman of the
House committee on Military Affairs
says our army is big enough and
that we should pay no more atten-
tion to the jingoes.
Where the doctors disagree so
radically it is up to the patient to
take the medicine which he believes
viii help him.
For one, l am unalterably op-
posed to large standing army.
VS.. DeInOCFdCy
You can't have republic, univer-
sal suffrage and rule of the people
side by side with gold lace, mill
tary caste and half million able
bodied men packing around repeat
ing rifles when they ought to be fol-
lowing the plow or pounding a drill
in mine.
The two things won't mix. Mill
tarism and Imperialism go hand in
hand. The history of the world
shows that. If we are opposed to
mperialism-if we want to perpetu-
ate the republic-then we must swat
militarism whenever it shows it's
helmeted head.
This doesn't mean that we
should throw away our guns, blow
up our powder mills and disband our
army. 1t simply means that we
should not make the science of kill
ing men the leading study for the
youth of this country
l believe we should have a stand
ing army of about 100000 men and
it should be the most efficient, up
tothe-minute army in the world.
1t should be a great training school
which in the hour of stress would
furnish the information and exper-
ience needed to make our citizens an
effective fighting force.
Disease Our Worst Enemy
We found it ridiculously easy to
defeat Spain, but thousands of our
boys succumbed to tainted meat and
the diseases of the camp. They did
not know how to take care of them
selves and their officers did not
know how to instruct them.
We should guard against repeti-
ton of this tragedy and the way to
do it is to make our army so effici-
ent that it will in truth be 1.-The
leaven which leaveneth the whole
lump"
For the purpose of disseminating
this information and training we
should build up our militia organi-
zations We should make the mil
itia attractive to our young men. 1t
should not be used as a police force
and only in times of direst need
should it be permitted to interfere
in industrial disputes.
Our peace officers should be COM
PEELED to perform the work for
which we pay them. If they lack
ability or courage they should be re-
moved from office.

 Washington. Jan. AttribttiIlg to the administration an intention to buy German ships interned in American ports if the ship purchase bill is passed, Senator Lodge today declared to the Senate that the measure would bring us within measurable distance of war not with England alone but iyv-tEf France, Russia and Japan.,,
 He quoted from House committee nearing to show that Secretary NGc- Adoos had practically admitted that the purpose of the bill was to buy the German ships laid up in Boston and Jew York. If such were not the pur- pose, Senator Lodge suggested that the impression now general could be corrected by an amendment which, he said, he believed had already been voted down in committee to debar the government from such purchase.
 ITO buy the German ships interned in these ports and relieve their owners from the heavy daily expense in car ing for them and to hand over to them 30 or 70 millions of money beIon ging to the American people,. said Senator Lodge would be a great and direct assistance to one of the belIigerents in the war now raging. It would Gbe an unneutra1 act and very readily might be construed as 9. hostile act and an actual breach of neutrality.s'
 Senator Lodge stated he had been informed that the administration had determined to send the Dacia, a Ger man owned ship purchased by Ameri- cans and transferred to American reg fstry, abroad to furnish test case.

Fearing to hit a passerby, Policeman Reilly did not shoot but started for the man, who began to run and dis appeared behind a house on Calhoun place.
 A rattling of boards was heard in the backyard and then there was si- lence lin the gloom Policeman Reilly lost his man but found a, heavy black cap that comprises the only clue. Later investi gation showed that one of the big stained windows had been broken in the attempt to enter the building. Policemen and detectives searched the neighbor- hood without success.
