SWISS MILITARY SYSTEM.
Tests All Youths Must Pass Before

The Swiss system is ultra militaristic
and probably would never be accept
able to the United States But it is
interesting, nevertheless, as indicating
how the problem of defense has been
met and apparently solved by the earn
est and patriotic people Of a republic
like our own.
The Swiss system is compulsory and
begins with the early schooling Of each
arms, however, until he Is twenty years
old, when he reports to federal au-
thorities for physical and literary ex-
animation. He must be able to read
and write and figure, and answer ques-
tons in elemental Swiss history and
geography.
The physical tests require that the
applicant shall cover at least eight feet
in running Jump, lift weight Of
thirty-seven pounds in both hands at
least four times, and run eighty yards
in fourteen seconds.
Those who fail in these tests are
given an extension of time for further
training, not to exceed four years, and

The Kaiser was with his men when

Then came a sudden jump in the

A number of the small local bakers
did not follow this move, and the

Gigantic War Game
with New York City
as Prize Is Planned
Army and Navy Maneuvers to
Show Defenses' Strength,
Daniels's Idea.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-Plans
for combined army and navy
maneuvers on a gigantic scale, with
New York city as the prize of con-
tending forces, are under considera-
ton by Secretary Daniels, although
the project has not progressed to the
point where 1t is assured they will
be held.
Secretary Daniels said today he had
been thinking of the maneuvers as a
Physical demonstration which might
reassure those who he thinks UNDER
rate the real value of the naval
strength and defenses of the me-
tropolis.
AS the participation of the army
would be essential to the working out
of any problem of real value in
demonstrating ability to meet an at
tack by a formidable fleet, Secretary
Daniels said he would confer with
Secretary Garrison, and later the plan
might be referred to the army and
navy war colleges and the general
staff TO work out the details.
Secretary Daniels said he had been
considering the feasibility of carry
ing out the plan after the Atlantic
fleet returns from the Pacific coast,
after the Panama canal celebration.
Just now, however, it is not possible
to foretell the date of the return of
the fleet, because of the change of
pro gram which contemplates It's
pa sage through the Panama canal
next month. The delay in that move
ment until July would prevent the re-
turn of the fleet to the East until late
in the fall and it might not be pos
sible then to carry out the projected
demonstration.
