Immediate need through expectation

This statement as made by Secre-

proved in June, authorized an army
of Approximately $4,000 officers and

present strength Of the army today
is about $4,000, officers and men
which leaves The army about 10000

OF that requires any haste In the re-
cruiting OF these men. but II is simply
