Nearly 100000 tlsrs soidisrs Thar
There Were on Verge 81 Great
World War. -s

Washingto Germany has laid be-
fore the Genoa conference figures
showing that there are today under
arms in Europe nearly 100000 more
soldiers than there were--when it was
on the verge of the world war in 1913.
According TO the German statement,
which has just reached Washington,
there are now In Europe a grand total
of 4.736.000 men under arms, compar-
ed with 3,726,641 in the year 1918.
While the mighty German army of
100000 men of 1913 shrunk to sthe
100000 soldiers allowed by the Yer
sailles treaty. the French army, which
in that year numbered $4,000, this
year stands at $50. 600. rGreeces army
has. increased from 10000 to 900, 900.
and, Belgium's from, 4,641 to 113,400,
the statement shows Russias vast
army, which in e1913 numbered 1885,
600, now is rated at, 100000 men.
England shows a slight. increase from
248, 900 to .277s000. while Italy reduced
her. forces. from 275,OO0 to 264.O09
New armies appear In the German
statement. Poland. for instance. an
unknown power in. 1913. is now ap-
pearing with an army of 100000 men.
Then there is Esthnoia, with $4,000;
Finland, with $4,000; Lettonia,. with
$4,000; Lthuania, with 25,00o. and
Czecho-Slovakia with 250,OOO, all iln-
known as military forces before. the
world war. SO
Finally 1t was shown to the Genoa
conference that while in the year 1s1 8
the German army comprised 90 per
cent of the total armies of Europe,
compared with % 1-b per cent for
France. at present the German per-
centage is but two, against 1914 per
