do something wrong:" the
sailor wanted to know, quaking
in his navy boots.
Bill said no, he just wanted
to give him something, and
thrust the dollar at the sailor.

constitution but the obligations
of the citizen to the state are
not clearly defined.
In fact, the citizen is hardly
obligated to the state at all as
long as he pays his taxes, avoids
committing a crime and does
not commit treason in time of
war.
The result Is that citizens
often neglect their duties and
responsibilities and even pride
themselves upon their ability to
bootleg when the occasion offers.
Nevertheless. the fact remains
that this country has been able
in the shortest possible time to
establish a competent citizens
army capable of meeting such
effective military forces as those
of Germany and Japan and de-
feating them in battle.

tary system we ought to be GER

IT is fortunate for the United
l. States that its professional
soldiers are less militaristic than
its politicians in wartime.
While some Of the politicos
are busying themselves trying
to beat the gun on postwar mill
tary training. Gen. Marshall
counsels that a large standing
army has no place among the
institutions of a modern demo-
cratic state"
He is not afraid OF the pacifism
of his people because he has wit
messed what a nation that truly
hates war can do If and when II
must go 10 war.
Gen. Marshall is not swept off
his feet by political exigencies,
for he realizes tn at no one
can today approximate the size
Of Americas postwar army as
no one today knows Americas
postwar commitments.
And no one can safely COM
nit the United States TO any
thing.
IT MAY be possible after this
Il war 10 use some such method
as the ROTC in the high schools
and colleges TO combine school
study with military training.
The last year in high school
would be particularly suitable
for such training as so many
more boys go to high school
than to college.
This would cone close TO uni
versal training without yanking
boys out of college.
The real danger Of any large
military reserve, particularly on
the officer level. is that it tends
10 set up a militaristic caste.
The military reservist has
been the curse of Japan, for
instance, because he came to
believe himself 10 be perma-
nently a part of the army and
he concentrated his loyaltieS in
support Of military chieftains.
Gen. Marshall said of the
reservists:
under this system,
leadership In war and the con-
troll Of military preparations
and policy In peacetime are
concentrated largely and neces-
sarily I'm a special class or caste
Of professional soldiers.
This Is the system of Ger
many and Japan. 1t produces
highly efficient armies. But it
is open TO serious political OBJ
jections. In q nation maintain
ing such a system, intelligent
opinion as to military policy and
the international political policy
associated Herewith IL concen-
trated in q special class"
THE citizens army need not
Il be dependent upon compul-
sorry military training.
There must be the opportu-
nifty for voluntary military
training.
The distinction is inherent in
our concept of government.
In such a republic as ours, the
obligations of the state TO the
individual are defined in our

mend Improvements in the

The best improvements that
could be made would be by the
substitution Of able and cou-
rageous members of both Sen
ate and House for those who
have weakened both Of them by
subserviency 10 the executive
power.
Not very much can be ex-
pected Of this Joint committee.
The joker in IL IS 10 be found in
this provision in the language as
II passed the Senate
THAT nothing in this concur
rent resolution shall he con-
strued to authorize the COM
mittce 10 recommend any
Amendment or change In the
parliamentary rules governing
proceedings In either house"
Embodied in those innocent
words is the determination OF
the Senate not 10 permit the
joint committee 10 propose that
the Senate abandon cloture, and
adopt the "pr0lous question"
which the House has used for
many years TO limit debate.
THE Senate proposes 10 main
l. tain It's high privilege as
1.-The greatest deliberative body
on earth.
There are some reforms
which the Senate and House
could and should inaugurate.
In the first place the salaries
OF senators and representatives
OF $4,000 are inadequate. They
should be increased TO $4,000,
and the membership of the
House should be decreased
from AS members by at least
so seats.
