GARRISON ROUSES
ENTHUSIASM BY
DEFENSE Speech
"For Home and Country" Key
Note of Strong Argument
for Preparedness

NEW YORK, ~ Y, Jan. lS-Urg-
ing all Americans to organize for the
fight for proper defense against a pos
sible foreign foe. Secretary of War
Garrison last night aroused the en-
thusiasm of a large crowd of New
Workers gathered 10 hear his address
The speech was the feature Of the big
dinner Of the Bankers Association
here, and fnanciers from all over the
country were present and cheered the
points made by the secretary.
Mr.. Garrison declared that mas.
much as the peace at any price propa-
gandists OF the country have taken the
pains TO organize for the spread OF
their theory, it became the American
of different breed also to get into
harness and fight for what he he.
lieved best for his country and his
home"
Says Nation Favors Plans.
The speaker asserted that he was
convinced from what he has seen of
the people of the United States that
they are in favor of a proper and ade-
quate system of defense against inva-
sion, and he urged his hearers to make
IL plain TO the present Congress that
such a system as outlined by the presi-
dents plan is demanded by the whole
people. Otherwise, he said, the noise
made by the relatively small and un
important peace element would swell
out of all proportion TO the actual
weight and authority of those max
ing it,
Unless this is done there is danger
that the present utterly insufficient
system under which the country suf-
fers now will be retained said Mr.:
Garrison
Urges Federal Control Of Military.
Continuing, the secretary of war
added that he believes that the fed
eral government should control the
entire military forces of the country.
Unless this power is given to the cen
trail government. he said, the proposed
militia system, which will contain the
germs of a great good to the nation
will prove of no real and lasting value
IN times of stress.
