and navy winch the PRESIDENT
will send to Congress will meet
with approval by the large ma
jority of Americans. Such sub
stantial increase in equipment
calls for a corresponding increase
in men. Privates and sailors
can be trained to a fair degree
of usefulness in few months /;
but officers such as this country
needs, require several years in
the making. At present we have
one military school, West Point,
and one Naval Academy, Annap-
oils.
The present capacity Of West
point is about 700, with an aver
age annual graduation of only
$50.
During the present war the
English have frequently lost in
a few days more officers than
the entire yearly graduation at
West Point. In view, therefore,
of the fact that the training a
young man receives at the mil
itary academy specially fits him
for life work of a high order as
a civilian, it would seem advis~
able to increase the number of
military academies by establish
ing one in the Central West and
one on the Pacific coast. The
graduations of all three would
in time produce 600 or 800 train
ed officers per year. Even at
this rate, deducting deaths and
disabilities, it would require at
least ten years 10 produce n to-
tai of 5000 officers; and this as
sumes doubling the capacity of
West Point and building two
more schools equally large.
In these days, mere courage,
of however high an order, will
not compensate for lack of train
ing in the officer; and now that
armies are spelled in millions
instead o. thousands, the neces-
sity of officers by the thousand
becomes evident.
The United States Naval Ac-
ademy at Annapolis, established
in 1854 and enlarged a few years
ago, has capacity of 1000 and
an average annual graduation
of 165. Some where ON the
Great Lakes and on the Pacific
coast sister naval academies
could well be operated to advan-
tage; providing in time reserves
of trained men available when
needed, but who otherwise would
engage in various industrial,
professional, or engineering oc-
cupations.-H. H. Windsor, in
the December Number of Popu-
lar Mechanics Magazine.

CONGRESS LEADERS HOPEFUL.
Some Predict That an Extra Session
Will Be Avoided.

Predictions that there will be no
extra session of Congress were made
today by Congress leaders who dis
cussed the question with President
Wilson. Their views, 1t was said, were
based partly Oh the belief that the ship
DILL would be passed before March 4,
and partly on the understanding that
should the bill fail the President would
not summon Congress to another ses-
sion Immediately.
White House officials continued tc
reiterate that the question had moi
been determined. but there were indi-
cations that the feeling of several days
ago that an extra session was certain
il the ship bill failed, had been al
most entirely removed.
The President has been told by many
OF his advisers that an extra session
should be avoided, if possible.
