America Can NeUer Put

Says Rd;cuZi11g German

Mr.. Baker speaks as If shortly there

Can the United States spare such a

no, because large part of the army
must remain behind for the protection
of the frontiers, the coasts, and other
duties Of political nature. The politi-
cal situation compels the United States
to keep at home the greater portion of
It's army, and the country at the mos,
