THE REHoBoTH MEETING.

=
The friction which developed at the
meeting of the Democratic State Com
mittee at Rehoboth. Saturday, when
an unsuccessful attempt was made TO
elect a national committeeman, proves
that the stand which Every Evening
has taken on certain political matters
within the past three months is right.
The action in the committee was
In part a rebellion against steam roller,
methods, and was formal protest
against a certain political transac-
ton which is yet fresh in the public
mind.
Andrew Gray is not national COM
mitteeman today because OF the blum
ders of his political managers. The
first mistake was made when the men
from Sussex were not ofsctaily noti-
fed that this meeting WAS to be held
for the purpose of selecting national
committeeman. Those gentlemen
rightly thought that they should at
least have been extended that courtesy
tn the official call.
Mistake number two was registered
when it was attempted TO nominate
Mr.. Gray without previously consult
ing the committeeman who live in the
lower portion of the State. Those gem
tlemen were for harmony Also, but
they did not desire to have it attained
by being crushed by the steam roller.
They wanted to feel that they had a
hand in the selection of the party's
leader.
The third error-and this was the
most serious of alI--was in permit
ting a man of Mr.. Gray's popularity
to be sponsored by the faction which
does not seem to be in good stand
ing in the party at the present time.
If Mr.. Gray's name had been advanced
in some other way We believe that
he would have been unanimously
chosen-say, for example, If it had
been arranged beforehand that a group
from one of the two lower counties
was to have the pleasure OF putting
him forward.
BY this we do not mean to condone
the action of the Sussex delegates
who bolted. We condemn that ac-
tion. We believe that the majority
sheuld rule in party meetings just
as it. does in general elections This
is certainly not the time for defections
from the party's ranks. Instead of
leaving the committee room, the bolt
ers should have presented their side
to the committeeman. made strong
plea for their points. and then ac-
cepted the ruling of the majority
But the Sussex countians did no
such thing. In their impetuousness
they shouted Lets co. and go they
did.
There are many things which We
could say about this transaction, but
we believe that Harmony is the first
need of the Democratic party, and
we are willing to do our share by
omttting caustic criticisms which we
could level at various groups in the
party which participated in the meet
ing. But We wish to suggest that Sat
urday's debacle proves that Every
Evenings position on Democratic party
politics has been sound. We would
recall to mind the fact that within
the past few weeks we have time and
again called upon all concerned to
get together and agree upon "a man
who would be acceptable to all. Every
Evenings advice went unheeded: the

Army, responsible for iis high standards,
bu, they become the permanent or pro-
fcssional part ef, The larger officers corps
Of the Army Of the United States. In
view Of the broadcncd relations of this
new army 10 our national life. our Off
GERS should realize the new opportunities
that thus come to them for public SER
vice. Any lingering feeling Of partisan
ship for the Regular Army as separate
organization should be avoided. The
goal should be the success Of each COM
ponenl Of the Army Of the United States,
each within lis proper sphere.
THE separate missions Of the differ
chi parts of the Army of the United
States should be borne in mind. The
National Guard in whole or in part is
liable TO service as first reinforcement
Of the Regular Army in minor emergcn.
cies. The Organized Reserves are liable
10 military service only in the event oi
serious national emergency especially
proclaimed by Congress. Ii is believed
iha, misunderstanding of this relation
has often resulted in undesirable rivalry
between the friends Of these two forces.
Officers Of the Regular Army detailed for
duty with either Of these forces should.
therefore, cooperate fully in the develop
ment Of the other. 1t is important that
the organization of the National Guard
should be maintained as near the full
authorized strength as practicable The
for the development of
units of the Organized Reserves for the
present may be satisfied if they contain
a full quota Of competent officers with
a reasonable quota of non-commissioned
officers and specialists, although ii is ex.
pected that these units may also be
maintained al much greater strength.
-All citizen soldiers who are free to
meet the special requirements imposed
on members Of the National Guard
should be encouraged to enter that force.
All young men after their voluntary
military training in the Reserve Officers
Training Corps or training camps should
be encouraged to join unit either of
The National Guard or the Organized
Reserves. But all such volunteers whose
business and domestic relations permit
should be advised that the most appro-
pirate place for such first service is in
the National Guard. There should be
no rivalry between the two forces but
rather an interchange of service between
them.
In conclusion. il is my desire that
the officers detailed for service in the
organization and training Of the Nation
al Guard and the reserves should be
selected from the most efficient officers
in our army. Ii is not sufficient that
this duty be assigned 10 an individual
al your headquarters 10 be performed in
a periunc;ory manner, but the Corps
Area Commander and all officers of his
organization will be expected TO take
an active interest in these forces and
toward them the. most cordial
attitude Of sympathy and helpfulness to
the end that the Army of the United
States may be welded into an harmonious
and efficient whole, ready to meet sny
that may call for its scr.
vices"
