Regular Army Gro,uth

TT is not generally appreciated that the regular
= army is getting to be fairly formidable force
On June 80, 1916, according to the annual report
of the secretary of war the total actual strength of
the regular army was 10764l, including 5785
Philippine scouts Excluding the scouts, the actual
strength was about l01 900 men, On April /, of
this year. some over two months ago, the army's
strength was about 10000 Today the regulars
number 275,0o0 and they need 5000 more recruits
to give them full war strength of 100000. =
1t is singular fact that most of the States which
have already filled their quotas Of volunteers in
the regular army are in the far West-Montana,
Utah, Wyoming, Nevada and Oregon, while In
diana is the only State east of the Mississippi to
achieve this distinction. .,
A man who wants fighting and wants it quick,
under the best officers, will enlist in the regular
army for the period of the war. .... =
Secretary Baker on Saturday announced that the
regular army is still short $4,000 men, despite the
energy spent in the last week of campaigning for
recruits Seventy thousand needed; twenty
thousand volunteered. About $4,000 men are
wanted yet for the completion of the new infantry
and field artillery regiments while approximately the
same number are wanted to fill vacancies, in order
that the war strength of 100000 men may be main
tanned. b.. &c..
