Assuring Military Defense
CFrom the Washington PosO.

There are two factors which may
tend to operate against the adoption
of a program Of adequate military de-
Tense at the next session Of Congress.
One is the possible defiance Of
public sentiment by the little navy"
and little army men, the advocates
of unpreparodness. the men VINO hold
that 100 American rabbit shooters
would be able 10 repel an invading
army.
The other is local selhsiness, which
takes the form of a scramble for
pork" whether It is TO be found in
a river and harbor bill, q public build
ings bin or In army and navy appro-
priation bills.
OF the two factors, the secono is
the more dangerous. inviting q con
tinuance Of the hapnazard methods
and waste which have made the army
and navy Of the United States more
expensive proportionately than any in
the world.
The way to meet the situation is
by making adequate defense q patrio
tic rather than q political issue, by
making It national rather tnan local
If the President should conhne him
self solely to the generalities that
have been used In the past with refer
ence to military dofense it will he an
invitation to a general scramble foi

hc program, based upon the consensus
