FRENCH IN FAVOR
OF SMALLER ARMY

Paris.-(By Mail )=How large a
standing army will France maintain
after the peace settlement?
Before the war France had a stand
ing army of about 100000 men. This
army consisted of three classes of
100000 men each and of a protest.
onal army of colonial troops num-
bering about 2O0,0 The mainten-
ance of this force called for three
years obligatory service. on the part
of every renchnlan.
1t is the reduction of this lcng term
of service that most interests the pub
lie. The Opinion" a semi-officiaI
military paper, recently printed the
future needs as seen by military
critic This writer estimates that
force of 100000 will suffice for the
army of the Rhine, which he regards
as the most important obligation, and
for the policing of Morocco. Though
he sets no definite figure for the
troops needed in the Near East and
in the home garrisons. he arrives at
the interesting conclusion that an
army of 100000 during the winter
months and of 100000 during the
summer will be plentiful.
As the colonial army of profession
al soldiers will continue to approxi-
mate zoe. 600, the writer points out
that fifteen months service on the
part of the home classes will give
minimum strength of 100000. This
critic proposes that the classes be
called up each spring and kept in SER
vice until the autumn of the followins
year. Fifteen months service would
give sufficient time for real training
and furnish a large army during the
summer months when the danger is
greatest and whe tnh maintenance OF
an army causes the least hardship
both on the soldiers and the state.

OF MARLBOROUGH, AMERICAN,
LEADS NEW ENGLISH SOCIAL REFORMS

An American woman, she that was
Consuelo Vanderbilt-now Duchess OF
Marlborough, is leading English
women in q social and political re-
form party.
She was elected to the County
Council yesterday from the North
Division of Southwark by a large ma
Jority over her opponent a labor can
didate. She stood for election as a
progressive.
The duchess is president of the
Women's Municipal party of London
and in her official capacity has an
nounced q program which her party
will support in the municipal cleo
tons to be held by the London county
council in March.
Here is the statement OF the
Women's Municipal party program
just issued by the duchess:
AS elected representatives we are
today considering the need for wom-
en- in local government and 1T is only
necessary to remind you that the re-
construction OF u social, industrial
and economic system win involve:
L. The settlement of woman's posi-
ton in industry and as a wage-earn-
er.
2. The rebuilding of our poor law
and the administration of relief on
humane and self-respecting lines.
3. The control and building Of
housing schemes on an unprecedented
, scale.
4. The establishment of municipal
schemes o maternity and child
welfare.
s. The administration of the vast
educational program just become
law.
"Our most vital need at the present
moment is the provision OF decent and
pleasant homes for every class of
worker in the community, but more
especially for the working man with
a large family, for whom at the pres
ent, absolutely no accommodation is
made at rents within his
