Captain WoolAey Of Mime

Commercial Club Here

Members Of the Commercial club
and other ctti4ens listened to the ad-
dress given last night In the auditofi-
UNI OF the city hall by Captain Fran
els n. Woolfiey. 56th infantry. from
tho recruiting headquarters at Mime
apolis.. MINI. Captain Woolfey spoke
on "The New Army and described
the peace-time program which the
army wa Offering for educating the
enlisted men.
He spoke briefly. comparing the old
army of former days with the army Of
today and in part. said:
Soldiers and Citizens.
The old army had one objective
only, military efficiency: the new army
~ q double purpose, first, to promote
military efficiency ana preparedness
against war, and, second, to prepare
q young men to become better ana
more useful citizens. The army today
may be said to consist of two schools!
q school during the morning hours In
which citizens are taught to become
soldiers, and a school during the after
noon hours in which the soldiers are
taught to become better citizens. In
the morning hours from reveille to
noon we train our"men and our OIL
Gers in military science and-auch tech
meal subjects as are necessary for the
= W roHCk 0k0s Ill IL d1SOIIEOOH
hours we conduct educational and
vocational schools.
Congress has appropriated two
million dollars for these schools We
furnish the necessary text books and
have hired civilian specialists to in.
struct in those subjects for which
proper instructors cannot be found
among the army personnel. These
schools are not a project but an ac-
tual working proposition. One hun
dred thousand men are now receiving
an education in these army schools,
either along educational lines or yo-
catioral lines. We can offer the young
MIA who enlists with us now a good
thorough course of training in any
trade he may desire. II he comes into
the new army unframed. we will send
him back to his community trained
along IN lines that will enable him
to make a good livelihood"
Captain Woolhey left last night for
other points in Minnesota, and Cor
poral Frank O'Hara. is in charge OF

nancfal and business men of the
country understand the absurdity Of
his suggestions. Only thing this
congress can do to reduce taxes is to
get down to the bed rock basis Of
economy. Nobody has added more
to the governments expenses in the
PAST than Mr.. McAdoo. His idea Of
finance has always been to pay a debt
by issuing a new bond.
with the government facing a
deficit of three billion in the current
year. to start out a new bond issue
and cut down the sinking fund that
is designed to pay off eventually the
twenty billion Of bonds outstanding
we already have, would endanger the
