months ago when they pointed out how thorough
ly unprepared the United States is to meet sud
den attack Of an enemy.
Germany modified 100000 in six days;
France modified 100000 in eleven days. It

Is, 900 militia in the state camps. Very few Of
these $4,000 were adequately equipped.
Distressing shortage in equipment was report
ed everywhere Hats, blankets, tents, saddles, am
munition, cooking outfits were lacking. One
New York battery went to the trout with two
horses to gun and two to caisson. The full
equipment calls for six horses to gun and six to
caisson. New York regiments were ordered to
the front in day coaches Of such inferior con-
struction that no company would dare operate
them in fast service. The Seventh New York
regiment Of infantry was on the road five days
without getting warm meal The mobilization
camps were without water. An Illinois machine
gun company had no gun when it was modified,
and had to be mustered into the infantry. Many
cavalry organizations lacked horses
The Mexican situation has revealed clearly
the haphazard makeup of our National Guard
strength The men were willing for service but
the essential things necessary for man in field
clothing and equipment-were sadly lacking.
Congress ought wake up to the situation.
The crisis has exposed our weakness. Remedial
measures ought be applied at once.
