of getting ready"
Mr.. Roosevelt said he was in favor
of the second strongest navy in the
world and regular army of 100000
men. He contineud:
''But the navy and the regular army
are not enough. Exactly as back of
the navy should stand the regular
army, so back of the regular army
should stand the nation. l speak to.
and on behalf of, a nation of free men.
Free men fit to be free men do not
have to hire other men to do their
fighting.

the men who wore the blue and the
men who wore the gray of fifty years
ago; Of the men who fought in the
two great citizen armies, the North
and South-the bravest and best in
the land went forth to battle for their
deep convictions.
Universal training and universal
service represent the only service and
training democracy should accept.
at is the plain people, it is the
farmers, the working men, the small
business men, the professional men,
who above all others should back up
this plan.
at is the present lack of system,
the present method of allowing only
those boys to train whose fathers have
money, which is unfair and undemo-
cratic. It breeds class distinction,

ing especially to the veterans of the
Blue and Gray, Theodore Roosevelt
painted at the Memorial Day ceebra-
ton here this afternoon an inspiring
vision of great peoples army, ready

in which the son of the railway presi-
deut and the corporation magnate
should march shoulder to shoulder
with the boy from the farm, the mill
and the bookkeeper's desk.
Only thus, he said, is adequate ma
tiOnal preparedness to be secured.
The stars no longer protect US, he
declared, for "if any army half the
size of that which attacked the Oar
daneIles was landed near New York
or San Francisco in a time no longer
than that occupied by the British and
Australians in reaching the Darda-
nelles, we should in the present condi-
ton of our forces be utterly at its
mercy"
He referred to the great danger to
the United States at the immediate
close of the present war, saying:
when this war is over it is possible
that some of the combatants, being
fully armed, will assail US because we
offer ourselves as a rich and helpless
prize.
"On the other hand, it is also pos
sible that there will be temporary
exhaustion among the combatants,
and willingness, even on the part of
the most brutal and ruthless, to go
through the form of saying that they
are peaceful and harmless.

danger lest our people be Influenced

eve have good deal of talk about
the officer class, that we are getting
from the volunteer training camps of

these camps offer the only chance for

"The man who goes to them renders
a high and patriotic service and Incl

training and experience. My sons
have gone and are going to these

Napoleon drew his marshals from
the humblest ranks, simply because
they were the best men for the job;

should go by merit.
