WARS are sudden and on a very
much more tremendous scale than
ever before In history" he said
There must be at least enough
preparation to maintain the integrity
or the country against any attempt
to invade II and to hold on the en-
emy until an adequate mobilization
of men and material can be made"
From l776 to 1920. Baker pointed
out, the United States, the most
peace-loving Of the great nations OF

domestic or foreign wars about one
out OF every four years. and the mill

world as IL Is while we struggle to
make II what 1t should be, and we
must have a body of trained men,
large enough in numbers to be an
effective working model upon which
great armies can be swiftly built in
the event or emergency"
The army, as ixed by Congress-, is
somewhat too small for the most effi-
cient training. the Secretary asserted.
He agrees with Secretary Daniels
that the navy must be at it's best
when war begins, but makes no such
claim for the army. He merely in
sists that it must be good enough and
strong enough to hold an enemy in
abeyance and be sufficient in size and
development to grow rapidly and ef-
fectively.
AS for materials, there should be
an adequate reserve in proportion to
the time required for their creation.
This applies particularly to such
weapons as coast-defense guns, field
cannon, machine guns and airplanes.
There need be no great reserve of
materials used in great quantities in
ordinary industry, as for example,
motor trucks and automobiles.
OPPOSES "CAsTE, ARMY.
whether or not a standing army
comprising a separate caste and
class apart from the life of the na-
ton is dangerous, depends upon a
variety Of considerations" said the
Secretary but that it is relatively
useless is clear. Our great army in
the war was strong because 1t was
part of the whole people of the
United States. in fresh and constant
contact with the thoughts and feel

it had come"

Secretary Baker Is convinced that
the opportunity for education and
recreation Is largely responsible for
the great increase In applications Tor
enlistment which marked the closing
months Of the year 1920. He believes
results already obtained, particularly
In the case of foreign born and hit
crate recruits, prove conclusively that
the Army can be made one OF the
nations greatest forces for assimil-
ating and Americanizing our immi-
grant population.
THE work already DONE" he said.
"in my mind forms not only a, new
thing in the world, but an amazing
and Significant thing. That IL has
been possible to find young men IL
such large numbers willing to enlist
in the army is undoubtedly due TO the
educational and recreational program
which has made service in the army
an opportunity to acquire education
both OF the, hand and head and has
relieved army service of its tedium
and monotony by surrounding the en-
listed men with wholesome recre-
ational opportunities.
"The courses vary from agricultural
and practical farming through all the
mechanical arts to the purely formal
and academic subjects. In all of TIN EN-,
however, certain basic requirements
are insisted upon with view to CIV
ing every soldier such course In
American Institutions ana history AS

more affection for the country which
he serves. and striking example daily
come to life of men gaining their hrst
real knowledge OF the meaning or
democracy in its organized politicai
forms from the studies which they
slowly experience In these camp
schools.
The educational opportunities Of
fered by the army have been accepted
seriously by the soldier. They are. OF
course, purely voluntary. i have no
doubt that the time will come, and
| that speedily, when the peace time
army of the United States will be
| throughout an educational institution
from which men will graduate at the
termination of their enlistment better
| equipped to enter civilian pursuits and
with a larger and firmer grasp on
| citizenship, with its responsibilities
and privileges. Such a system re-
| moves from a peace-time army the re-
proach of wasted time. 1t gives OF

| tice and useful purpose without al
all interfering with the defensive pur'
poses for which the army Is main

MADISON MAN A
SUCCESS IN MINISTRY

The Hendersonville, n c.,
News has an item about the
Methodists there wishing to have
Rev Willard F. Moores returned
to them for another year by their
conference Rev. Moores was
born and raised in Madison coun-
ty. near Waco. His many friends
will be glad to hear of his good
work. He comes of fanny OF
Methodist ministers OH Ms mo-
ther'si side. He is a brother OF
Mrs. John F. White on Fifth
street. The North Carolina pa
Il per says:
The loyal supporters Of Rev.
NJ. F. Moores, pastor in charge OF
the NJ. E. church of this city, are
giving vent to their great love
for him and their feeling that he
has not yet completed his minis
try among the people of Hender-
sonville, by getting up a petition
asking the Board of Stewards to
request at the next meeting Of
the General Conference TO be re-
turned to this charge another
year.
This method of getting an ex-
tension of the regular four year
itinerary of a Methodist minister
grew out of decision at a gener-
al conference meeting of the NJ
E. church South at Atlanta a few
years ago, to the effect hat a min
lister may return to his charge
for another year if this is the
wish of the majority of his church
membership and of the pastor.
1t is to be hoped that Rev
Moores, who is one of Gods able
messengers, may remain here, SO,
that he may continue his already
fruitful and deeply spiritual min
|istry.
