WAR
IDEA IS ILLUS0RY
Notwithstanding, Our Naval Pro
gram Should Not be Held
Lightly in Nippon
(Associated Press)

Toxic, Dec. 1.-THE American
naval expansion program was the
subject of lecture delivered recent
ly before the National Defense Asso-
citation by Commander Sosaburo Ia
kahashi, member of the navl staff
board.
The newspapers quote Commander.
Takahashi as expressing the opinion
that the much talked of American
Japanese war was illusory and mat
ter of impossibility but as holding
that it was a greater illusion to take
an optimistic view of Americas policy
of preparedness. The speaker thought
it dangerous to take an easy view of
American naval expansion and en-
phatically laid stress on the import
ance of the expansion of the imperial
navy with a view to keep in pace
with American preparedness.
Commander Takahasi dwelt upon
the speedy construction of American
warships and the activity of Ameri-
can shipbuilders. He referred to the
positive defense measures being elab-
orately worked out by the United
States in the Pacific and Philippines,
together with an extensive plan to
complete communications between the
American possessions in the Pacific.
Other speakers recommended the
establishment of additional iron foun-
dries in japan, pointing out how the
lack of them had been keenly felt by
the belligerent nations since the out
break of the war.

STRONG ARMY Or
SUBMISSION
MILITARY TRAINING ONLY THING FOR
AMERICA
MILITARY FORCE Of UNITED STATES SHOULD ALWAYS BE
THREE MILLION MEN
(Associated Press)

Washington, Dec. 18-The aban-
donment' of the volunteer military
system was recommended by the army
general staff because the time has
come when the United States, unless
it intends to avoid war at any cost,
must resort to universal military
training, Major General Scott, chief
of staff of the army, told the Senate
military committee today. He assert
ed that universal training would be
democratic, reliable, efficient and eco
nomical and within few years would
practically render the United States
immune from attack.
General Scott expressed the opinion
that for war with a first class power
the United States should have a mil
lion and half troops ready at the
outbreak of hostilities with million
and half to follow in ninety days.
AN EXAMPLE BEFORE OUR EYES
Gen. Scott based his opinion on the
development of the British army, the
organization of great Canadian forces
and the British alliance with Japan.

can say that the Maxwell is won as
yet; in fact, the race is just starting
and the winner will not be known
until the announcement is made by
the judges when all the votes are
counted at the close on Jan. 20.
New nominations are coming in
every day and with these comes added
interest in the campaign. Those who
are not members of the club should
pick out a member and start boosting
for them today. The member will ap-
preciate your support and it will mean
only small effort on your part.
Subscribers can pay their subscrip-
tions to the Star and cast their votes

GREAT WAR GAME
ON THE RIO GRANDE
SOLDIERS ON THE BORDER HAVE NO PICNIC IN

Especial Correspondence of the Starr
Especial Correspondence of the Starr

Laredo, Dec. 11.-With the Second
Florida regiment and battery of
regular artillery on the offensive and
the Second Missouri regiment and
battery of artillery on the defensive,
the maneuvers of four days started
at 8 o'clock this morning. There was
an icy wind from the north, therefore
We were all there with smart step.
The columns marched out north of
Laredo nine miles by 10:30. After a
Commute rest the columns turned
and traversed the same route back to
within 100 yards of camp, turning
east, halting on the old Maine camp
grounds where "dog" tents were
pitched. At 4:30 there was a general
inspection of field equipment.
There was summer" meal serv-
ed at 6 o'clock, some of dinner and
some of supper. All the men retired
early to their downy beds (down on
the ground).
Santa Rosa Farm, Is Miles from
Laredo, Dec. 12.-At the break of day
every man was out of his tent hustling
around to keep from freezing, as
everything froze up, even the water
in our canteens.
The first thing was to get the men
who were froze out during the night
to the hospital. Camp was broke and
streets policed before breakfast and

blanket rolls made. Breakfast was
served at $50 and at 7:30 the col
umn moved out, going southeast along
the Rio Grande for Is miles.
This was one of the hardest hikes
we have ever taken, rocky roads, al
kali dust and shortage of food and
water.
Our destination was reached at
1:30, the men foot-sore and tired out.
There was an inspection of feet, shoes
and socks, finding many blistered feet,
the owners being too game to fall by
the wayside. When check was taken
"a" Company was five men short.
This was about the best record made,
other companies having as many as
Ia men out.
Camp was pitched among the mes
quite bushes and cactus and a surplus
CT alkai dust. Supper was served at
6 o'clock, consisting of corned beef,
raw tomatoes and light bread. Dinner
is one meal that is eliminated during
maneuvers. It takes a day to hike to
a suitable place for camping. Through
shortage of water there was no coffee
on the menu, one of the most benef1-
cial drinks to a soldier.
At night every man is as busy as g
dog with tin can tied to his tail

TENNIS PLAYER At

''How long can man play top

Il. Norris Williams II, gave vent to

he had defeated William Johnston OF
California in the national lawn tennis
championship finals at Forest Hills,

entirely probable, and ! shouldn't in

within the next six years and regain
the title. ,.,. "

hopes, as to the length of time can
remain champion or championship
contender. am "a now. And man
ought to play the very best tennis
of his career around 20 or 30, for the
reason that at that age he is likely to
have retained his stamina and to
have played long enough to have &C.

valuable in big matches. Look at
Karl Behr. He is far from broken.
There may be this, however, to
be said about McLoughlin.' 1t is high

man in his younger years where the
game which either William Johnston
or l play would conserve it. 1t is not
impossible that vital difference lies
there. '.
