important stories and editorials Off

Stonewall Jackson alone Of leaders
on either side Of the Civil war en-
tered the contest with knowledge of
what staff work meant lie 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 If
the prevalent rawness does not extend
to the craftsmanship of the COM
mander."
To meet such q 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 distribu-
ton of the regulars into divisional
areas which underlay the corps and
army area structure. 1t is not ex-
pected. officers say. that more than q
division ever will be brought together
in peace times. but through practice in
handling O divisional unit Of 10000 or
80 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 deinBAd of the army for a
larger pronosifS0ts officers than the
actual A@Aants f'sqn@o of any prob
able regular ace would require.
Tllese extra officers would play little
part in the actual peace time en-
ployment of the army as such or
even in small emergency that required
only the regulars to meet the nations
needs They would be under training
in staff functions, and in turn be
nasSng on their knowledge to the Ma
tional Guardsmen and reserve officers
and the whole scheme Of keeping the
' country up to date in military sense
without Keeping any substantial force
under arms at any time rests on this
provision, it Is asserted.

Plan Provides for an Efficient
Staff Trained in Peace
Time.
BARS CENTRALIZED CAMPS
Foundation Work on Great National
Scheme OF Mobilization Already
Done--ReguIar Army to Train
Men for War.

Washington Two lessons of the
World war, learned at heavy cost. are
sharply emphasized in a War de-
partlnent 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
battefieds of France It is that efli-
Gent staff work is vital TO modern mil
itary operations, and with 1t goes the
cOr0llary that staff functions cannot
be learned over night.
The other comes from the wartime
din and confusion OF the centralized
training camps at home. II is that ETH
cient mobilization OF the nations fight
ing strength can be carried out only
rs deCeniraiized process through
agencies set up In times Of peace.
Realization that these lessons must
be worked into the new military pol
ICY if perilous delay aud costly con-
fusion which preceded past mobiliza-
tons were to be avoided has marked
the effort Of the Wnr department.
The bulletin shows that 1t has attempt
ed to write regulations under the re-
Vised national defense act that would
furnish clean-cut scheme for war
mobilization without violating nation
al traditions against militarisin or Gre
ating machinery that would impose
heavy burdens in peace times upon
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
chinery is being set up capable, it's
designers believe, Of getting the ma
tion on a war footing with little de-
lay and confusion. Yet 1t il felt that

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.
Col. John McA. Palmer, the officer
assigned to aid congress in framing
the legislation making it all possible,
and who has devoted himself to .
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 a means of preventing misunder-
standing.
Colonel Palmer points out that at
the conclusion Of previous wars, tie
United States Scrapped all il had
learned in battle ana demobiIized with
out any attempt 10 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
star work ANA the handling of mighty
forces with minimum confusion in
movement and minimum losset 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 1898 1t was necessary ~ build
again from the ground up, and 1917
saw this waste repeated, the bulletin
asserts.
The purpose of the new scheme OF
welding the regulars. the National
Guard and the organized reserves into
the army of the United States Ia
peace times Is defined by Colonel Pal
mer AS follows:
1T is primarily the object Of our
new law TO perpetuate the framework

can be funded ms a permanent invest

mer continues, "wonld have proceed

characters in Mark Twain's super
humorous romance, "A Connecticut
Yankee at King Arthur's Court"

do things at the Augusta Opera
House yesterday.
The film version of This immortal
book was given. Old Merlin, the

King Arthur, Sir Lancclot and all
the rest were right on land. Hon

Twains Twain, for it has been
brought right up to date, not only in
language but in accessories. The
Universal Car is shown and the
Connecticut Yankee himself, who is
Harry Myers, proves q composite
Yank and Westerner all in one.
There is unrestrained fun in near
ly every flicker of the picture and
when there are not laughs there are
tense moments of the kind that
make one grip the handles of his
scat and wonder if help Will arrive in

It's a smashing big picture. all

George a. Yeaton of Chelsea has
temporarily Joined the st&ff of the
Department of Agriculture as State
horticulturist. Mr.. Yeaton is one
Of the bost-known orchardtsts in the
State, and Commissioner Washburn
is much pleased to secure his SER
vices, even if only for a time.
Mr.. Yeaton left Tuesday night for
Berlin, Md. to inspect two carloads
of apple trees, awaiting shipment to
Maine. The lot contains 10000 trees
and Commissioner Washburn is de-
termined that we shall have no
repetition Of past incidents where
diseased trees have arrived in Maine,
only to be destroyed here. He feels
that it is due the orchardists of
Maine to have diseased trees, if any
in the shipment, stopped outside the
State and not even permitted to cross
our borders.
