UNITED STATES HAS. MATERIAL FOR ARMY. OF 1,25O,0O0-W00D. Only Plan for Utilizing Ma terial Needed, Thinks Gen.
 eral-Plans to Train
 More Officers

P1attsburg. N. r., August 1.-The United States has plenty of material For volunteer army of 1.250,000 and all that is needed is a plan for utiliz- Ing 1t, Major General Leonard Wood said here today in a statement on the nations preparedness for war. The chief need. he said, was officers. He advocated training. college students in their junior and senior years along the same lines as now are being used al the military camp of instruction here.
 General Wood said the country has three sources from which to draw of- ficers from private life. First, of these, he asserted, were men who had been in the regular service or militia. Second. ne would obtain officers from a list of men kept by the war department and who have qualified by examinations. The third source would be from mil ttary schools or institutions in which some military training is given.
 For an army of 1,250, 900, General Wood said, the nation would need 40.- 000 officers. From these 1900 should De chosen each year for special grades or the service. These men eventually he would have become the higher grade of officers for volunteers.
 Referring to military service. Gen eral Wood said
 NO one has a right to consider his discharge of duty as a soldier as vol intary. This duty is an obligation that Is binding upon all who are mentally and physically fit and within certain age limits. A man has no more right to speak of volunteering to discharge his duties to the nation as a soldier than he has to talk of volunteering to obey any moral law or pay his just debts"
 General Wood also took a strong stand against waiting until time of war to organize a volunteer army He said such plan would be about as effective as waiting until a fire broke out to organize volunteer fire com pany. Soldiers enlisted at such times, he said, would not know what was ex- pected of them.

DEPOS|TORS' BILL
 PASSED BY SENATE Would Put Savings Deposi- tors on Same Basis As
 Other Depositors
By L. s. BETTY

Montgomery. August 14-(Special.) ) The senate today passed Representa- tive Fite's bill providing a constitu- tiopal amendment so as to place de- positors in savings banks on the same oasis as other depositors. Under the present law, depositors in banks who have not stipulated for interest on their funds are given preference over all other depostors, and the purpose Of the Fite bill, which has passed the house, Is to remove this distinction.
 Sentiment in favor of the constitu- uonal amendment mas gained rapidly In recent years in view of the numer- ous bank failures throughout the state and more particularly as a result of the failure of the Jefferson County Savings bank of Birmingham These failures have all produced more or less direful results for the safety de- rositors. the depositors on checking &C., counts having. under the present law been given precedence in the final set clement of the banks affairs.
 The senate passed a number of bills today, though the session, as a whole was featureless Several measures pro- rosed by the Investigating committee looking to an improvement In the eff fciency of the state departments were passed, as were the bills appropriating 5000 and S2500 for the expenses of the recess Investigating and finance and taxation committees, respectively.
 Following are the more important bills passed by the senate today:
 By MT. Davis: To further prescribe 6 the authority and duties of the attor- ney general and of solicitors. and to provide for the employment of as- sistants to the attorney general and of special counsel; to make an appro- priation for the conduct of the office Of attorney general, for the better en- forcement of the law, and to prescribe the method of It's expenditure.

 And Cluke's effectiveness as a ru- morer grows with experience. He ap- pears to he working toward sort of climax or grand finale, as 1t were; and just to show his utter disregard for the tender feelings of Birmingham fandom he has attached the prover- bial can to the. person of our old friend. Carleton Moleswortn. Local ad- mirers of Moley who are willing to forgive the present slump of the Bar ons and give him another try as man. ager. will hear of Cluke's decision with gravest concern.

 As a true exponent of the hypo- dermical Cluke reigns supreme. His work this season in all probability will win for him a higher rank than colonel Maybe he will get a cross of honor. However. an old saying has it that the wild rumor bespeaks the idle mind. and it might be best for all concerned If instead of cross of honor the colonel be provided with one similar to that once borne by a famous Gallalean on a memorable oc- casion at Cavalry.
