men in patriotism and all the other virtues. Now there is good deal to be said. for military discipline in teaching men subordination and peril haps teaching them promptitude eti cetera, but it has been my expert | ence-and think it will be yours if you analyze the effect upon the re- turned soldiers-that the military dis cipline which they have received rather reacts upon them when they get out of the Army and the average soldier today is a good deal of Bol- shevist-in a pleasant sense not in socialist sense. He is very impatient of any harness or of any control. whatever, and I think that is the great weakness of the army discipline, of the army system. I have not hesi- tated to express my feelings against universal service, wherever I could, in order to try it out, and I think in no place has my stand failed to meet with an almost instantaneous accept ance and applause, both among the service men and among other citizens in my community.
 This developed into a discussion of whether compulsory training was popular or not among the men who
 saw service in France. The discus sion went on as follows:
 Senator Wadsworth: Several state l conventions of the American Legion have indorsed universal military train ing.
 l Gen. Sherburne: Undoubtedly, but | what do they mean by that?
 Senator Wadsworth: They mean 1 universal obligation to be trained. Gen. Sherburne: They may mean
 universal obligation to be trained, or J,ir l You do not define it. That's the dan
 ger. If it is universal military ser
 vice, they are all against it. Now
 that is the only fair way-to come
 straight out and say that you intend
 three months compulsory service be-
 cause that is what it is.
 | What this country needs more than
 anything else is a framework. It has
 been my experience dealing with citi-
 zens who have donned the uniform
 that it is a, very quick piece of busi-
 ness to train them. For example
 there is the One Hundred and Sixty
 seventh Field Artillery Brigade of col
 ored men who went into the line witt
 less than 60 days of actual artillery training and who were highly spoker of by the French. They did their jot
 in every case. Our men are very quick to learn. This talk that yor cannot make soldier in less thar
 three years is perfect and utter TO and do not hesitate to characterize it as such. You can make a soldier
 in three weeks with the proper lead ership; the whole question hinges o1 the proper leadership.
 General Sherburne had som, : heterodox ideas about discipline as thu committee found out before it go through with him. Speaking of tn, | influence of the Regular Army tradi
 tions upon our democratic ffghtin; } forces the General said:
 Gen. Sherburne: Our general staf is patterned almost exactly on tn r prewar German staff methods. Well } perhaps it would be invidious to g
 very much further on that line bu s take for instance, the question of sa el luting. Undoubtedly you gentlemen
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1920-04-16

have talked to private soldiers. I can tell you that as a general, going around in a limousine, that my arm has gotten so lame from saluting that have pulled down the curtains of my car so I would not have to sa- lute. I have seen boys sitting along the road who would have to jump up and salute every few minutes, and if they did not they never knew when they were going to get called down. have seen general officers stop their cars and get out and go back and call poor doughboys, treatN them like dogs, because they were marching along the road, perhaps tired out and had failed to salute. I have seen that time after time.
 It is a little thing in itself, perhaps but I tell you, gentlemen, it is the outward and visible sign of an in ward and invisible condition tha ought not to be.

GENERAL SCORES
 ). s. MILITARISM
(By Charles T. Hallfnan, Secretary Of the American Union Against
 MilitarisTn.l

Washington, April Whoever unloaded Brigadier General John H. Sherburne of Boston upon the Sen ate Military Affairs Committee did Rn unlzind thing, ,---unkind, that is, to the committee or at least to Messrs. Wadsworth, Chamberlain and con- pany. Seldom have the walls of that historic committee room heard more soldierIy bluntness, more giving the game "dead away or franker criti- cism of the huge military establish ment which the advocates of compul- sorry military training are striving to create.
 After General Sherburne had, in reply to questions given his name, his title and the record of his service in France, Senator Wadsworth sought to draw him out upon the subject of universal military training. The transcript of testimony reads as fol- lows:
 Gen. Sherburne: <his army pro- gram, in my judgment, attempts to bring into being Q centralized, mfli- tary power which to my perhaps con- servative New England judgment, is one of the greatest potential dangers which the institutions of this coun- try have to face. I am against cen
 
 Senator ChamberIain: You mean universal military training, or do you mean compulsory service? Do you differentiate between training and service?
 Gen. Sherburne: Yes, I differen- tiate, because military training may be many things; it may mean train ing in a high school or it may mean taking the men away and segregating them in a camp. The latter I think, is the same thing as compulsory ser vice. As a matter of fact, Senator, the word training is used ire quently as a camouflage to conceal the idea of compulsory service. The people who believe in the full extent of compulsory military service feel that as such they can not get it through Congress but labelled as compulsory training they think they can get it through and that shortly thereafter it becomes com pulsory service.
 It seems to me that preparedness is insurance but over preparedness is like over-insurance, and oyer-in- surance has two fundamental weak nesses-it is an economic waste and 1t leads to arson. We do not need any such standing army as universa service would give us.
 Somewhat later the committed drew the Massachusetts general ou- on the subject of the vast mental anf moral benefits which are claimed fol peace tune conscription, but there again they caught Tarter:

BULL MOOSE DRIFT
TO cox HAS EFFECT
ON OREGON OUTCOME
Stand Taken by Distinguished
Leaders Who Followed
Roosevelt in 1912 Regarded
as Significant Move.
BY WARD A. IRVINE

H PORTLAND, Oct 2.-The appeal
of rs, Progressives OF national reputa-
ton for the followers of Roosevelt to
revere the Great Americans memory
1 by voting for Cox and progress will
1 be the signal for a countrywide drift
of Progressives and independent votera
| to the Cox Roosevelt standard, Cox
leaders in Portland believe. The Ma
tionally-known Progressives who We'd
Resday declared for Cox are Harold
L. Ickes, Illinois member of the Pro-
gressive national committee in 1912
and supporter of Hughes in 1915;
Mathew Hale of Massachusetts,. chair
man of the Progressive national COM
mittee in 1915; Francis J. Heney,
Progressive candidate for United States
| Senator from California in 1912; John
NJ. Parker. of Louisiana, vice pres
| idential nominee in 1915 of the Pro-
gressive who nominated Roosevelt to
head the ticket; Judge Ben b. Lindsay
of Denver: Elias d. salisbury. chair
man of the Indiana state committee;
Roscoe Fertich, former secretary of
the Indiana Anti-Saloon League: H. r.
Holman, Progressive National Com
mitteeman from Missouri: Antoinette
Funk of Chicago; Edwin NJ. Lee. chair
man of the Indiana State Republican
Committee in 1910 and the Progress
sive Committee in 1912: A. w. And
ridge, delegate from Ohio to the Pro-
gressive conventions of 1912 and 1915;
George C. Rublee of New Hampshire.
w. H. Nichols. Progressive National
Committeemcn from Vermont. and
Charles w. Reynolds of Covington,
Kentucky.
Undoubtedly the action of the dis
tinguished Progressives of National
reputation in coming out for Cox and
Roosevelt will stimulate the already
noticeable drift OF Progressives from
Harding to the Progressive nominees"
is the statement OF prominent Port
land progressive who desired his eme
withheld. "The effect will be felt not
only in Oregon, but throughout the
country. The prominence of these
leaders viii crystalize progressive
thought and create a leadership to
carry an increased following of Pro-
gressives into the Cox Roosevelt sup
/ port. Already a large number OF
Progressives, particularly in Muitnom-
ah county have quietly declared for
1 Cox and Roosevelt. They say that
Cox is the only nominee they can sup
port and vote in accordance, with their
progressive ideals"
/ The appeal sent out by the Progress
sive leaders stated: To-day the inde-
pendent voter is the hope of our nation
and the protector of civilization. Let
those who revere the memory of
| Roosevelt remember particularly that
/ in the time when a democratic ad-
ministration under Wilson was adopt
