NOT SATISFIED WITH FATE
Most of Us Have Some Kind of a
Crouch as to How We Have
Been Used.

AS rule we all hold a crouch
against life. because of the one thing
that we think should have happened
to US and did not. This is not new
idea; it has been worked over and
over, but, just the same, if we take
the time to look a little more deeply
into our hearts than we sometimes
like to do we are very likely to find
there a certain degree of resentment
against life, or fate, or circumstances
because some one outstanding thing
has not happened to us, something
that we would have liked to have
happened and which we believe would
have contributed in large measure to
our happiness. Of course, the some
thing that we have in mind differs with
each individual: it may be blessing
that we just missed or something that
we never had the least idea of obtain
ing; it may have to do with our per-
sonal happiness or our personal sue
cess it may have been the one thing
necessary to round out beautiful life
or it may have been the one thing that
would have brought us disappointment,
but whatever it was we know that we
longed for it with all our heart and
because it never happened to US, and
never will happen to us as far as we
can see, we continue to want it and to
feel hurt and injured because we have
not obtained it. We may not look
upon such a condition as blessing
in disguise because most of us prefer
our blessings in plain view and be-
yond all shadow of doubt or misunder-
standing. Charleston News and Cour>

REORGANIZATION
OF ARMY PLANNED
(Ry Associated Press.l

\
Washington, Nov. 14.-Plans for
the reorganization Of the war depart"
ment and the army itself now are In
process OF formulation by the gen.
eral staff and soon will be before
Secretary Baker. Orders for the
actual breaking up OF the army can
not be promulgated until these plans
finally are completed as the denobs
ili2atipn program is dependent to
some extent upon the adoption Of .
reorganization policy.
Baker Will Submit Plan.
The secEetary has indicated that
the new legislation will be neees-
sary to carry out the organization
and expected to lay a definite pro-
gram before congress at the earliest
possible moment. This may reopen
the whole question Of universal mill
tary training and many officials an
tIctpate a long legislative struggle
before final action is taken on what
| ever policy Mr. Baker may propose
Size of Old Regular Army.
Existing law authorizes the main
tenance of a regular army Of APP
proximately $4,000 men. While 1t is
not possible as yet to forecast the
number Of American troops that must
be employed in Europe even after
the peace treaties have been signed
military men believe now that the
authorized regular establishment can
not provide an adequate force for all
| purposes at home and abroad.
Only 100000 Obliged to Serve.
OF the 100000 men now under
arms. probably not more than 100000
are under obligation to serve beyond
the restoration of peace. There were
some 1000 officers and about 10000
men in the regular army when war
was declared. Expiration Of enlist
ments, however, probably has served
| to reduce this considerably and all
| wartime enlistments are for the war
| period only.
None Held Against Their Will.
Thousands of the officers now in
service are on temporary commits
sfons in the regular establishment
| These commissions were issued for
a definite period Of years, and the
men might be held, although the gen.
eral attitude Of the department would
| not indicate any intention Of hold
ing such officers against their will
when the war emergency has passed.
Pershing Will Say.
The number OF men necessary to
be maintained in Europe probably
Will be worked out by General Perish
ing's staff, and since similar calcula-
lions for the United States and its
possessions are being made here, It
is expected that the size Of the army
for which it will be necessary to
provide soon will be arrived at.
Generalization Problems.
Generalization Of the existing Of
ficers' corps, both line and staff,
forms a separate element of the
present problems OF the war depart
ment. 1t is certain that efforts will
be made to keep men who have shown
themselves qualified in such relation
ship with the government that their
services can be quickly resecured at
need.
Retain Army Officers Reserve.
Plans for returning officers to their
civilian status are expected to pro-
vide for an army reserve officers
corps similar to that used in build
ing up the present army.

three years to come will consume ey-
