After all these years of comfor- table life devoted to relatively easy living and the academic study of the progress of men and their con- flicts and struggles the old timer finds himself faced with an en- tirely different kind of world.
 Something has happened in the world seen only by people in past ages but never by any living per son because no such thing has happened since the day of Napol- con It is the development of mili- tary power and its successful use.
 This time there is no theory about i it. It is not academic. It is real. And the people of the United States must face actual realistic condi- tions with weapons and force and determination, which means more than words and spending money the very souls and blood of Ameri- cans must be laid upon the altar of service to country if our self governing institutions and liberties are to be saved
 Military power is as old as re- corded history of man. It is the ! weapon used by nations to protect and advance their own interests in the ever-present struggle for exis- tence.
 World Domination Its pOSSeSSOrS always display the same characteristics and the same ambitions. Military power is ruth less, cruel, savage, and unsuitable If it is successful it's objectives in variably become an effort at world domination.
 We have been witnessing the de- velopment of military power in Eu- rope during the past few years and, since September 1889, we have been observing the successful application of that power to secure it's imme- diate objectives. France, Belgium, Holland Norway, Denmark, and Poland have already succumbed to that power.
 History customarily repeats itself and there is no reason to suppose that the successful military power of Europe will not adopt for it's final objective the military domina- tion of the world as all other pos sessors of successful military power have done in their time.
 Attila, the Hun-Alexander, the Great--and Napoleon, can be named as outstanding examples of those who, with varying degrees of suc- cess, have used military power in an effort to dominate the world of their day.
 Power Rampant
 With successful military power rampant, giving an exhibition of speed of operation, undreamed of combinations of various land, sea. and air weapons under centralized command to oyerwhelm other forces is it any wonder that normal de- fensive armies and navies are ren- dered helpless? The big question is what are the people of the Unit ed States going to do about it? Europe, with 1940 conceptions of how to make war and with 1940 weapons of most modern tvi1e makes war against those with 1918 conception of the conduct of the war, with no weapons or ideas of how to use them beyond those de- veloped in World War I. What chance have any such nations to stop military power?
 Military power can be stopped only by equal military power and
The Daily Alaska empire., 1940-09-03
MILITARY POWER LOGS
 NATION INTO AWARENE55

can be defeated only by superior military power
 Military power is economic re- sources of a nation converted into shape to be used for military pur- poses. The most important re- source is man power. Untrained, it is not military power, but lia- bility. Trained, it is the most pow erful element in military power. Weapons-tanks, machine guns, airplanes, artillery, and all other types of weapons, are valuable only to the degree of the training of the men who use them.
 Men Count
 Regardless of the weapons or machines used in air, or on land or water, the final acquisition and holding of land is still only to be done by the man on foot, the soldier with his rifle and bayonet. the infantryman. Pilots for planes. machinists for planes and tanks, specialists of any and all kinds of any and all branches of fighting forces are quickly trained compared to the time needed to train the individual man to be an efficient soldier.
 It takes at least year of hard work in military organization to train a man to be an efficient sol- dier. He must be subjected not only to the technical training but must undergo psychological pro- cess wherein he acquires complete self subordination to authority and is completely imbued with the con- viction that he has only one thing to do and that is to obey orders.
 European man power for the past seven years has been undergoing such a rigid course of training and preparation as this Every man, woman, and child is being subor- dinated so that the whole popula- tion-man, woman, and child has gradually been turned into a mili- tary asset-a component part of the military power.
 The United States is the only nation which has sufficient eco- homie resources to develop military power equal to and superior to that of present day aggressor nations.
 Get Started
 It takes time measured in months and even years to convert eco- homie resources into military power and the most immediately impor- tant thing that we can do is to get our man power started on the road to conversion from economic to military power.
 We should raise standing army, with the Regular Army and Ma tional Guard as principal parts, of one million men and at the same time start military training of boys of such age as will put another million men into training for at least one and better, a two-year training period.
 If we will do this promptly We will have force of at least par tially trained men ready to take over the operation of the airplanes, tanks, armored cars, and mechan- ized units and the many new weap- ons now being built
 There is no time to waste. Ag- gressor nations will act swiftly and unless we do these things in a forceful, determined way to de- velop the iron in the souls of our soldiers, the United States will be caught sleeping as have those coun- tries now overwhelmed and defeat ed by military power.
