NEW ARMY TO Be IN
FRANCE IN SPRING
MEN NOW IN AMERICAN CAMPS
TO COMPLETE THEIR TRAIN
ING IN FRANCE.
Additional Hundreds Of Thousands Of
Fighting Men to BE Secured Through
a Second Draft Which May
Be Made Any Time.

Washington.-PIan are now in
preparation at the war department,
according to information obtained on
September Is to have large proper
ton of the drafted men now entering
training camps in France by early
spring.
1t Is proposed to give the men the
rudiments of military duty and then
transport them to the American base
in France. There they viii be put
through course of intensive training.
BY these means it is believed they
will develop much more rapidly as
soldiers besides opening the way to
the training of additional hundreds Of
thousands to be secured through a sec
ond draft
Preparing for Second Call.
This call will be much sooner than
has generally been believed, it is init
mated, and this Is largely the reason
why the war department is so much
Interested at present in proceeding
with the immediate examination Of the
100000 registered men who have not
yet been called.
This proposition is tied up temper
arily by the fact that an appropria-
ton is necessary before the work can
proceed. The required appropriation
is included in the general deficiency
bill now before congress.
Figures are extremely taboo with
the war department these days, but it
Is no violation of the spirit of the let
ter of the censorship provision to
state that 1t is hoped to move approx
lmately 125,0O0 to 100000 of the draft
ed men to France to complete their
training there.
1t is hoped in some quarters that
this can be done by the end Of April.
These troops would not be available
for trench work until late in the sum
mer at the earliest, but they would be
In France and the political effect of
their numbers would be great.
New Draft to Fill Gaps.
The difficulay is not so much the
men themselves as maintaining them
once they are overseas. Expert esti-
mates place the ratio at twenty tons
Of shipping to maintain one man. By
almost continuous movement of draft
ed men to France after training period.
the war department believes the in
struction of men here at the camps
can be made more effective.
Transocean Movement Slow.
The mobilization of the United
States forces is proceeding on a tre-
mandous scale-one not even dreamed
of by the layman-but the fact re-
mains that while much success is at
tending the governments efforts, the
transocean movement is slower than is
generally believed. Even the move
ment Of men to camps is on a slow
schedule.
Where there was talk only few
weeks ago of 10000 men in France
by spring, the prospects now are that
the active fighting forces-regulars
and national guard, will be nearer
100000 than 10000.
