I'm peace times, but through practice In
handling a divisional unit Of 10000 or
so men, training can be impaired. 1t
is felt, to fit future leaders to handle
corps of armies In battle. -
From its role as staff college, also.
comes the demand Of the army for a
larger proportion of officers than the
actual enlisted strength Of any prob
able regular force would require.
These extra officers would play little
part in the actual peace time EN-
ployment Of the army MS such or
even I'm small emergency that required
only the regulars to meet the nations

without keeping any substantial force

Lessons of War
in New Defense

Guard and the organized reserves into
the army of the United States in
peace times is defined by Colonel Pal
mer as follows:
1T Is primarily the object Of our
new law to perpetuate the framework
Of the organization developed in the
World war, so that Its tremendous cost
can be funded as a permanent invest
ment for all time"
Had such system as is now well
advanced toward establishment been
erected after the Civil war, the Off
Ger adds, Gin 1898 more divisions than
were needed for the war with Spain
could have begun their expansion
within "a hours after the declaration
Of hostilities.'
Centralized Process Demoraiizlng.
Mobilization In 1917" Colonel Pal
mer continues, "would have proceed
ed as II decentralization process and
not as great centralized process,
upsetting the economic life of the ma
ton. 1t would not have been necessary
to spend millions for great concen-
trated training camps or to overbur-
den the railroads with unclassified
personnel and material In order to
organize and train and equip and pro-
vide officers all at the same time
Such national organization must
have saved months in time and mil
lions In money"
Colonel Palmer points out that
StOnewall Jackson alone of leaders
on either side of the Civil war en-
tered the contest with knowledge of
what staff work meant. He had stud
led Napoleon's troop orders, and In
the first battle of the war, Colonel
Palmer says, showed that even raw
troops can stand like stone wall II
the prevalent rawness does not extend
to the craftsmanship of the com
mander."
To meet such a situation, the new
military policy imposes on the regular
army the duty of training In peace
times the men on whom must Of ne
cessity fall the burden of command
and direction Of great forces In war.
From this arises the present dlstribu-
ton Of the regulars into divisional
areas which underay the corps and
army area structure. 1t Is not ex-
pected, officers say. that more than a
division ever will be brought together

SCOUTS
Conducted by National Council OF the Bog
Scouts OF America-)
ROOSEvELT'S BIRTHDAY.

The birthday Of Theodore Roosevelt
Is observed by boy scouts throughout
the country at the instigation OF
the national council who feel
that the late Colonel specifically
represented perhaps better than any
American of recent years those quail
ties of sturdy manhood, clean, high
visioned, loyal, virile, which they like
to emphasize and keep before scouts
as living ideal. There was particu-
larry close relation between Roosevelt
and boy scouts inasmuch as he was
vitality interested In the movement and
was at the time Of his death said to
have been considering becoming a
national leader of the organization In
which he was already an honorary
vice-president and held the title OF
chief scout citizen.
Last year, under the leadership Of
National Scout Commissioner Beard.
boy scouts of New York and vicinity
made memorial pilgrimage to
Roosevelt's grave, an event repeated
this year on an even larger scale. In
other parts of the country the celebra-
tlon took the form of tree planting.
mass patriotic meetings, father and son
banquets, ETC., all devoted to the pur-
pose of keeping alive the memory OF
the great American who played so
big a part I'm our national life and
whose spirit still "goes marching on"
among us.

TAKES OVER BOSTON TROOP.

Said Dabbus who served as Chief
scout of Syria and Is now student
at the Massachusetts, Institute of Tech
nology was one Of the young men who
answered the recent call for scout
leaders issued by the Boston council.
He will act as scoutmaster for a
group Of Syrian boys. Another valu-
able addition to the scoutmaster ranks
that the appeal gained was Joseph A.
Langone, organizer Of the Sons Of
Italy, the largest Italian organization
In the country. Mr.. Langone will
serve as scoutmaster of his own

Supposed Suicide
Gets Up and Runs

BaItimore.-Several hundred
persons gathered on President
street to await the arrival of the
police to move the body of a re-
ported suicide lying under rail-
road car. They were startled
when the man got up and ran.
William n. Houck, conductor Of
a Baltimore & Ohio railroad
train, grabbed the man and held
him for the police.
The Suicide" gave his name
as Angelo Scapano, thirty-two,
and an address on President
street. He was found lying be-
tween two freight cars, with his
head across one of the rails. A
pistol with two discharged
chambers was nearby.
A Waterman at nearby plant
fired several shots to attract the
police. Scapano told Lieutenant
Mooney he had crawled under
the car to sleep and knew moth
ing of the pistol or pistol shots.

Foundation Work on Great National
Scheme of Mobilization Already
Done-ReguIar Army to Train
Men for War.

Washington.-Tw lessons OF the
sharply emphasized in War de-
partment bulletin, giving the first Of
fetal picture of the new national de-
Tense structure projected in the re-
organized army of the United States.
One lesson comes direct from the
battlefelds OF France. 1t is that efii-
cient staff work Il vital to modern mil
itary operations, and with 1t goes the
corollary that staff functions cannot
be learned over night.
The other comes from the wartime
din and confusion OF the centralized
training camps mt home. II Is that efli-
cient> mobilization of the nations fight
Ing strength can be carried out only
as decentrallzed process through
agencies set up in times of peace.
Realization that these lessons must
be worked into the new military pol
icy II perilous delay and costly con-
fusion which preceded past mObiliza-
lions were to be avoided has marked
the effort of the War department.
The bulletin shows that 1t has attempt
ed to write regulations under the re-
ylsed national defense act that would
furnish clean-cut scheme for war
mobilization without violating nation
al traditions against militarism or Gre
ating machinery that would impose
the taxpayers.
To Profit by Experience.
The project undertaken probably is
the most far-reaching military effort
the nation has ever attempted In peace
times.
The foundation work has been done.
All over the country decentralized ma
chlnery Is being set up capable. its
designers believe. Of getting the ma
ton on war footing with little de-
lay and confusion. Yet 1t Is felt thar
the nation at large and even the most
important links In the new defense
chain, the regular army. the National
Guard and the officers Reserve corps
do not appreciate fully what Is being
done.

assigned to aid congress In framing
the legislation making 1t all possible,
and who has devoted himself to a
study of the subject, was called upon
TO furnish the document, and his work
is to go to all parts of the new army
as means of preventing misunder-
standing.
Colonel Palmer points out that at
the conclusion of previous wars. the
United States scrapped all It had
learned In battle and demobllized with
out any attempt to carry those costly
lessons on to younger generations for
their protection and aid In time of
war. Veterans of the Civil war,
schooled In soldier craft, skilled In
staff work aad the handling Of mighty
forces with minimum confusion In
movement nnd minimum losses In
battle, went back to civil life, he says,
and lost all touch with military mat
tiers. When the war with Spain came
their knowledge was lost to the men
Of 1893. It was necessary to build
again from the ground up. and 1917
saw this waste repeated. the bulletin

PLAN SPECIAL CELEBRATION
Lutheran Sunday School Will Have
chrisllnas Party


Committees from the Lutheran
Sunday school are busily at work on
a new idea for Christmas celebration.
The Sunday school scholars are 60
ing to give party to all the church
and Sunday school members Friday

MORE ROAD AID FOR STATES
Kansas Would Receive Three Mil
lion Under Bill

+ Kansas may look forward to re-
ceiving 3 million dollars annually in
fedral road aid for the next five
years, if bill introduced at this
session of congress becomes a law.
This measure calls for an appro-
priation Of $10O,0O0,000 year for
five years. Its passage will prac-
tically assure highway construction
on a big scale for years to come, in
the opinion Of M. w. Watson, state
highway engineer.
Already flood Of applications
have been received by the State
Highway Commission from various
counties over the state which want
q slice Of the 2-million- dollar melon
to be cut in the near future. There
is no doubt that the entire allotment
will be asorbed in brief while.
Together with previous allotments,
Kansas has now been granted a total
Of approximately 10 million dollars.
Allotments to this state under the
bill would add Is million
dollars more in the next FIVE years.
