WAR, BAKER DECLARES,

Secretary Tells st. Louis Business
Men That as Civilian He Opposed
Professional Soldier But Mind Ia
Changed.
st. uis.-Secretary of War Baker
in an adress before the Business
Mems League here, said that as Sec
retary of War had discovered that the
Army does not desire war.
"As civilian" he said, II believ-
ed that standing army was a me-
mace to free institutions and that the
professional soldier desired war. But
| want to make confession to you.
I have found as Secretary Of War
that the Army Of the United States
from the commanding general to the
last enlisted private does not desire
war. know Of no body of men who
have more singular devotion to
duty than the the Army, and no body
OF men who would be more willing
to lay down their lives for their
country.
"The militia was mobilized on the
border Assistance of 1900 miles
twice the distance from ST. Louis to
New York with great success and ef-
ficiency. Notwithstanding the fact
that the men came from all walks
| of life and are doing service in a
strange climate. the efficiency is
such that the sick report Is less than
two per cent-one per cent less than
that of the reb,ilar army.
"fhe time has come where there
must be power on the part of tho
Government to mobilize all the forces
Of the country for the common in.
