CUTTING DOWN THE ARMY.
Senator Borah nrono,

Senator Borah proposed cutting down the size
2Sssof the army again, this time by looping off another
$4,000 men. Somebody says that this would have
San important effect on the disarmament congress,
as better than anything else it would convince the
yother nations of the sincerity of the United States
an its proposal for a general reduction. Nt
We imagine that the other nations are not spe-
sstcially interested in whether. the American army is
increased or diminished by $4,000 men. Our regu-
liar army is now so small that under no possible cir
sscunstances could it be a menace to any other ma
sstlon, or even an annoyance, unless possibly to Mex
slco, which can be reached merely by crossing a
river.
! The size of our regular army has much less
bearing on the peace Of the world than has the
means employed for recruiting, training and eouip-
sp1ng a new army of adequate numbers whenever we
wish to do so. And the size Of our land forces,
present and potential, is of much less concern to our
ssnelghbors than is the size and strength of our navy.
The discussion at the conference will have lit
sstle to do with armies. Our own army is and will
srernain numerically insignificant. Great Britain's
ssarny on a peace footing is very small compared with
stne SIZE and distribution of the territory for whose
guardianship she is responsible. France is at present
sthe most military nation in the world, and there are
people who have suspected her Of entertaining inn
sPer1al# ambitions inconsistent with the peace and
freedom OF the world. That suspicion, we may rest
assured, IS groundless. There is doubtless a mill
stary party in France, as there is in every other coun-
sstry. But the French people as a whole are more
INTERESTED in the industry and thrift which can be
associated only with peace than they are in the ex-
tension OF French influence by means of the sword.
france has learned by costly experience that she is
living under conditions which make a large army
necessary to her safety. Italy maintains an army
sssot considerable size, as does Japan, and it is cutie
certain that France, Italy. and Japan would be glad
*o reduce their armies materially if they were Ger
tain that they could do So safelysand that agrees
5sslons by them on other nations would in no case be
,stolerated.
II IS nayies, and not armies, that must first be
sss.redd,leed. The United States might maintain an
sssarmy OF FIVE million men, and unless she had a pow
sertrl navy the other nations could regard her army
sas.of the great nations that prompts the other great
%ssrnations to compete with it in that form Of arma-
{ sr,ent Willingness on the part of each nation to
sacrrtall It's naval program will count for more than
the army reductions that can be made.

CONFERENCE INVITATIONS.

President Harding has issued his formal in
to the nations which are to take part ia the
conference on reduction of armament. The text of
the invitations has been made public, and it is seen
that the text is in accord with the reports that have
been given from time to time of the progress Of the
preliminary negotiations with regard to the pro-
posed conference.
Without undertaking to arrange a definite pro
gram for the meeting the president suggests that
while every form Of armament. will naturally come
up tor consideration, a place Of special importance
will naturally be given to the consideration Of naval
equipment 1t is evident that this is the gateway
to general armamen reduction.
Special mention IS made of the Pacific and Far
Eastern questions as subjects demanding consider
alton. It is evident that the problems arising in
whole question of natal and military equipment,
no great progress can be made in the de-
sired direction until there is substantial agreement
on the essentials of the policy to be pursued with
reference to these problems.
The crix OF the whole situation is touched on
ance of the peace Of the world in the absence. of the
desire for peace, and the prospect of reduced arma-
ments is not a hopeful one unless this desire finds
expression in a practical effort to remove causes of
misunderstanding and to seek ground for agree
ment as to principles and their application
The world has suffered in the past because
those who have guided the destinies Of nations have
either been distrustful Of each other or have enter
tanned the hope Of being able, at an opportune
moment, to seize by force that which they believed
would be Of advantage to them. There has been
neither the compelling desire for peace nor a real
faith in peace.
If these elements should be lacking At this time
results of the conference will be insignificant.
If the nations approach the subject in the conviction
that peace is really possible, and in the determine
to achieve it, the conference will be one Of the
most mofnentous gatherings IN history.

GETTING TOGETHER,

Secretary of Labor Davis declined to make a
sgSVu word statement OF his views as to how capital
laDor can get together, saying that 900 words
IsWere entirely too many. He embodied his opinions
aln the terse statement that the way for capital and
labor to get together is to get together. Could he
have done any better in three hundred words. or
Ssthree thousand?
q We take it that MI. Davis has some rather def
mite ni ideas as to methods which may ~usefully be en-
aployed in bringing about desirable relations between
aacap1tal and labor, and that, on a fitting occasion. he
aWouid be ready to set forth these ideas in as MANY
gWords as might be necessary for the purpose. But
