The High School Cadets.

Washington with good reason, has always
been proud of its High School Cadets In every
important parade these youths furnish a striking
example OF what may BE accomplished by mill
tary training, and at Presidential naugurations
visitors for years past from all over the coun-
try have compared them with the cadets from
West Point and Annapolis, and not to the dis
advantage of the Washington boys Yester-
day their annual competitive drill which has
been feature OF school life in the Capital for
nearly thirty years, was completed, and after
the keenest Of contests in which only military
experts could determine the superiority of one
company over another, the priced trophy posses
sion OF which is proof of something very nearly
approaching military perfection was awarded
and all partisan feeling swept aside by the
wave OF enthusiasm for the gallant victors over
worthy rivals In the preparedness parade the
appearance of these high school boys will be
"a convincing argument in favor of universal train.

Col. Stephen M Foote and Col w. H.
Boyle visited the War Department yes
terday.
The appropriation for machine guns
carried by the army appropriation BILL as
agreed 10 in the House Committee on
Military Affairs. does not provide for
sufficient guns under the new policy OF
the War College. The bill is based upon
the policy of the War College before II
was revised as the result of the reports
from the European war.
Under the old organization Of the army
there were no machine-gun companies.
The War Department organized prOvis-
ional companies which never had any
legal status. To these companies were
assigned four machine guns and one in
reserve. Machine guns have been so eN-
tensivcly used in the European war that
the War Department. after studying the
subject carefully. recommended thai
twelve Indthlne guns De assigned 20 tatl

reorganization bill which is to he armed
by machine guns Aside from this. ma
chine guns are TO be assigned TO the coast
defenses, the engineer troops and the
aviation section Of the Signal Corps. Tho
War Department Is now devotinE Consid-
cradle attention to the proposition OF arm
ing aeroplanes with machine guns. Three
Lewis machine guns have been ordered,
and as soon as they are delivered will be
sent to the Mexican border
While the board which recently tested
the Lewis gun reported that II is not az
efficient as the Benet MerCier which *
now in use IN the service or the Nickers
gun which haa been adopted by the War
Department. there Is reason TO believe
that the Lewis gun might be better suited
to aeroplanes. The Lewis gun is used
more extensively on aeroplanes. accord

feeding is better suited for service on
aeroplanes than that Of other guns.

Said Billy" Sunday TO the Colonel: 81 don't
know what those delegates in Chicago are going
to do, but I can tell y,ou this, the plain people
are with you to a man, and if you run this fall
they going to give you the biggest majority
piled up by an American candidate" And
later the Colonel said: 81 very glad to have
a chance to shake hands with Billy Sunday.
From what l have read and what l know of
him, he is doing a wonderful work" A fair ex-
change. but what does the plutocratc Sunday
know about the plain people"2
