 "Despicab'e Organ"
 Governor Cross, in attacking the republican campaign tactics, re- ferred to the Connecticut State Journal, a republican publication, as a despicable organ. He de- clared that Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn, his opponent, dare not speak for himself. Referring tc the milk question, he said that mo- body claims the problem has been solved. "One of the problems still facing us is to reduce the price to the consumer" he stated. He added that the public would like a statement from Attorney Al corn on how he would solve the milk question. The same thing is true of the liquor act, the governor continued. "He tells the public that if he is elected governor he will make use of every ounce of his ability to formulate a law which will be fair to everyone concerned

physical exhaustion and dearth Of sup
plies in the other, the defensive ar
ranpements in both armies were high
ly perfected.
The relative power Of the defense,
featuring as 1t did skillful use Of en-
trenchments and lavish employment
of machine guns, became so pro-
nounced as to make all attacks exceed
ingly laborious and costly. Local sue
cesses, secured with the assistance Of
concentrated artillery fire, were ord1-
narily quickly obliterated through
counter -attacks-and the Characters
tic conditions of siege warfare largely
obtained.
In the effort to restore a greater
power to the offensive, gas and tanks
we're brought out as instruments OF
war, but for a number Of reasons these
hastily developed weapons could not
attain successes sufficiently important
to hurl the defender into the open.
War of Exhaustion.
The war became one of attrition, or
exhaustion. All attacks necessarily in
volved frontal assaults, in which sue
cess was sought through the slow, me-
thodical using-up of available enemy
reserves. There was demanded on each
side constant stream of reinforce
ments. Hordes of men were poured
into this vortex and their experiences
there constituted their sole practical or
theoritical acquaintanceship with war.
Very naturally, after the Armistice,
the millions of survivors carried back to
their homes a fixed conception Of war
fare, conforming accurately to the pic
ture presented them during dreary
months on a practically immovable
battle line. From these great numbers
Of veteran laymen quickly absorbed a
conception of single unchanging and
inescapable type of warfare, the pre-
dominant features of which were
trenches, immobility and extraordinary
bombardments.
This idea was largely accepted by
statesmen and legislative bodies, and
to certain extent influenced the doc
trine and tactics of permanent mill
tary forces. Professionally trained

tration of forces, surprise attacks in
flank and rear, and intensive pursuit
of defeated forces.
Along the Western border OF Rus
sia poor communications, great dis
tances in the frontage and a depth
of the theater of war, marked diff
ferences in the quality of opposing
troops and equipment, and above all,
disparity in leadership were conducive

paign.
Western Front.
On the Western front a distinctly
different situation quickly developed.
The available frontage, terminating in
the impossible areas of the North Sea
at the one end and Switzerland at the
other, was exceedingly CONSTRUCTED as
compared to the great numbers of
troops that could be quickly concen-
trated by each opponent along that
line. Following a few short weeks of
rapid maneuver the f1anks of each
side eventually rested securely upon
these impossible barriers, and during
the respite afforded each army by the

leaders, however, early began to point
out some of the fallacies in these con-
clusions. Marshall Foch's advice and
representations to the allied statesmen
evolving the peace treaty at Versailles
clearly demonstrate his conviction
that, as to its nature and form, the
World War constituted a great excep-
ton rather than an enduring type.
Roads Help Armies.
Little reflection is necessary to ap-
preciate the soundness of such a view.
At no place other than in Western
Europe does there exist q definitely
flankless line with populations on each
side of it of such density and readiness
for war as to man it solidly from end
to end. In no other region Of equal
size does there exist the number Of
good roads necessary to support armies
of the size that fought for four years
in Northeastern France and Belgium.
Finally, modern Improvements in
certain offensive weapons and In trans
portation equipment have immeasure-
ably increased the power of maneuver
and Of speedy concentration, and so
made more dangerous any adaptation
of the Gordon system Of defense.
In our own Army technicians have
been busy since the war in developing
experimental models of the types of
equipment useful In war of maneu-
yer. Moreover, almost four years ago
the Army definitely turned its serious
attention toward the development Of
an organization, tactical doctrine and
sytsem of basic training applicable to
campaigns featuring speed, sudden at
tacks and relentless pursuit.
The chief of staff in his report Of
1881 to the Secretary Of War stated:
ITO defeat the armed forces of the
enemy it (the Army must conduct
efficient reconnaissance and counter
reconnaissance, move swiftly in the
direction indicated as desirable, con-
centrate its personnel and material
at the critical point or points, strike
with its full force and exploit rapidly
and fearlessly every advantage
gained"

fare"
Trend Toward Speed.
In a later report the chief Of staff
used the following language with re-
spect to this general subject:
THE inevitable trend in warfare Is
toward greater speed of strategic
maneuver through maximum utiliza-
ton of relatively fast machines for
transportation, increased fire-power on
the battlefield through employment of
weapons of much greater efficiency
with the resultant wider dispersion in
tactical formations; more power in
the attack through utilization Of COM
bat vehicles invulnerable to small
arms fire and capable of croSs-coun-
try travel; growing dependency upon
air forces for information, for as
sistance in defense of the coast line,
for attacks against hostile enemy's
supply organization.
"All these things point to the
probability that any major war Of the
reasonably proximate future will see a
swing away from the tremendous and
ponderous combat forces that have
characterized campaigns of the past rs
years and that in their place will ap-
pear relatively mobile. highly trained,
and very powerful, though somewhat
smaller, formations"
The four-army plan was developed
in the light of these fundamental
truths. Moreover, the Army's train
ing, equipment, and organization are,
so far as possible, within the limit of
appropriations made available by Con-
gress, being constantly revised and
progressively adapted to the require
ments of combat in the open. Speed,
skill and efficiency in a force of rea-
sonable size Is the ideal we seek to
attain.
