Present Status OF Men with

highest grade held by them during the war,
but who have not yet accepted reserve COM
missions, and the graduates of the Reserve
Officers Training Corps, maintained in the
various schools and colleges under the prov-
sions of the national defence act, it Is ex-
pected that a sufficient number of reserve
officers will be available for all the reserve
units which 1t is planned to organize, leaving
a sufficient number unassigned who will be
available for special duty in the various staff
corps and departments.
Three skeletonized infantry divisions of
Organized Reserves will be organized in each
corps area and reserve officers will be as
signed to a unit in the locality Of their place
of residence. In time of war each reserve
officer will know where and to whom to re-
port for duty and to what organization he
is assigned This will greatly facilitate All
effective mobilization. In time Of war the
units of the Organized Reserve will be raised
to war strength by the draft.
The organization of the Officers Reserve
Corps. the enlisted Reserve Corps. the pro-
posed establishment of training camps and
the Reserve Officers Training Corps afford
a subject for interesting study. Regulations
governing the Organized Reserves are now
being prepared by committees of the Cen
eral Staff composed OF an equal number OF
regular and reserve officers

United States Peace Time Armies
Never Adequate to Meet Emergency

We have never had a complete army or
ganization in time of peace that was capable
OF expansion I'm time of war. In each recur
ring occasion of war we have had to prac-
tically create n new army. In the civil war
relied at first upon the various State
militia forces. then a large volunteer force
and finally consumption was resorted to. In
the war with Spain the first thing we did
was to call for volunteers and the National
Guard organizations which came into the
Federal service came in as United States
volunteers the Government then having no
power to draft the National Guard into Fed
eral service. These volunteer forces were
temporary expedients and not part of any
regularly or permanently organized military
establishment Therefore much time and
money were expended in placing the country
on a war footing We entered the world
war, not knowing Just what our army was
to be, whether II was to be created by voun-
tary enlistment alone or by voluntary enlist
ment and the draft. Neither was II known
definitely just what part the National
Guard was to take in the war. whether 1t
was to be part Of the expeditionary or first
line forces or not and the National Guard
had to be practically reorganized before it
could be made a part of the expedtionary
forces. Congress wisely declared itself In
favor Of the only Just and democratic method
Of raising an army in time Of war, that of
compulsory military service or the selective
draft.
So satisfactory we're the results and SO

army, and also to provide an effective ex

and which will serve a model for the or
ganization, discipline and training of the
National Guard and Organized Reserves. The

long been apparent, but has never before

Country Divided Into

Abolished
By J. MOSS IVES, Major o. r. c.,
II. S. A.

~ June 4. 1920, the Congress, for the
j first time in the history of the
- ton, passed a law which can be
called definite and comprehensive plan of
national defence making for a real prepared
ness. 1t has taken us over a century and
quarter to heed the advice of Washington,
who told us that ito be prepared for war is
one Of the most effective means of preserv-
ing peace" Washington's successor in the
Presidency, John Adams, in a message to
Congress, said: IAN efficient preparation for
war can alone secure peace"
All these years we have persistently dis
regarded the advice of these Fathers of the
Republic. We have entered every war in
our history wholly unprepared and without
any well defined military policy We have
gone TO war first and determined our policy
sfterward. This has cost us dearly enough.
but that II has not resulted more disas
trously Is due to our great good fortune in
that, as Major-Gen. Wood has said I'VE
have never yet waged war single handed
with first class nation prepared for war"
There are many who firmly believe that
Germany's unrestricted submarine warfare
and our consequent entry into the world
war were direct result of our unprepared-
ness. So great an authority Gen. Peyton
c. March, the Chief OF Staff of the army, in
his report for the year 1919 said
Had such a force and such a system of
training as Is above outlined been in
istence In this country at the outbreak of
the war; It is probable that Germany would
not have dared by the violation of the
rights Of this country under international
law, to have brought the United States into
the war"
Some light on this very question is given

divisions of the National Guard and three
divisions of the Organized Reserve, together
with the necessary number of corps troops
and balanced percentages of field army and
general headquarters reserve troops. The
new tables of organization have reduced the
peace strength of an infantry division to
about IL, 900 enlisted men. The total war
enlisted strength will be about $4,000.
The new tables of organization bring to
the surface many of the lessons of the world
war Noteworthy among the changes in or
ganization is the change in the regiment of
infantry from twelve rifle companies to nine
rifle companies and three machine gun COM
panies. In each regiment of infantry is
37mm. howitzer company. The war strength
of a rifle company win now be Tive officers
and two hundred enlisted men, while the
peace strength of the same units will be
three officers and one hundred enlisted men.
These new tables afford a subject for inter-
estng discussion which cannot be gone into
here.
The General Staff has proceeded upon the
justified assumption that the military policy
contemplated by Congress involved the or
ganization OF our military forces into "one
harmonious and effective army. the Army of
the United States" composed of three COM
ponent and we'll balanced parts, the Regular
Army. the National Guard and the Organized
Reserves.

general is now the feeling that the selective
draft is the only just and equitable method
of raising an army in time of war that it
can be said that the country is to-day COM
mtted to the policy of the selective draft.

Japan's Attitude Indicates That
Preparedness Often Secures Peace


over in Japan the other day mass meet
ing of students was debating whether japan
should go to war with America because OF
the recent legislation In California Accord
ing 10 an Associated Press despatch from
Toxic Il seemed to be the consensus OF
opinion of these young debaters that while
the legislation furnished sufficient provoca-
hon for hostilities, yet as America was now
better prepared for war than was japan II
would not be advisable for the latter to start
hostilities. The leaders of both nations are
irving and no doubt will succeed in bringing
about a satisfactory and peaceful solution
OF the question at issue. Now IL the jingoes
and hotheads of Japan can be kept within
proper restraints by the realization OF Amer
ica's present preparedness and force no pre-
cipitate and ill-advised action, while diplo-
matte means Of settling the controversy are
being employed II can be said that pre-
paredness il really factor for peace anu
that peace through preparedness Is no iuie

June 8. 1915, which is known as the ma

came very near hitting the mark. but just
missed 1t. comparison between the first
sections Of the two acts will show how far
the Act Of June a. 1920. is in advance Of the
Act of June 8. 1916, and how It makes for
a definite military plan, which the Act of
June 8, 1915. lacked. The first section of
the National Defence Act reads as follows:
THAT the Army of the United States shall
consist of the Regular Army. the Volunteer
Army, the Officers Reserve Corps, the En-
listed Reserve Corps, the National Guard

The words in italics show just wherein
this provision failed to establish a definite
plan of military organization, for It leaves
the whole military establishment open to
future legislation. Such other forces "as
may hereafter be authorized by law" may
mean anything. 1t is Just this leaving the
composition of the army open to future
action and future policies, to be determined

Third Line of Our New Army
Will Consist of Organized Reserves

In the new plan of organization the Regu-
lar Army will be the first line increment,
the National Guard the second line and the
Organized Reserves the third line. AS con-
stituted, the Organized Reserves will be
strictly war component While the Regu-
lar Army and National Guard will be or
gained as completely possible in peace
time, recruiting their units to full strength
in time of war. the units of the Organized
Reserves will be maintained cadres only.
In each cadre the officer personnel will be
as complete as practicable and the enlisted
personnel will be maintained at a strength
which will be sufficient to develop the re-
quired quota of commissioned officers
and specialists.
