An attack upon the defense act has
been opened by the National Council for
Reduction Of Armaments through its
bulletin. In which an article appears
charging that Prussian miitarism 10
encouraged in land-grant colleges under

The bulletin characterised the defense

Reduction to one.half in the number
OF officers in the United States Is urged
by the bulletin to Offset the provision OF
the defense act. which aims to scatter
officers broadcast throughout the nation,
with the purpose Of stimulating interest
in military affairs among the young men
Of the country. In land-grant COLLEGES
military training is compulsory, but
similar conditions exist in all COLLEGES
where military courses are given under
the special staff of Army officers assign
ed to this work.
