Secretary Garrison Wants That Sum From Congress.
FOR DEFENSIVE PURPOSES.
Half a Million Trained Men In Fiv* Yaars la Hope—Daclares Praaldent Wllaon Will Try to Convince Leadera Big Increase Is Imperative—Stock of Ammunition Recommended.
Washington.—The plans for the re¬ organization of the army are nearing completion and sfion M-lli receive the president's approval. A series ot con¬ ferences has been held at the White House between the president Secretary ot War Garrisiin and the chairmen ot the senate and house committees on military affairs.
The i)asis of these conferences will be the report which Secretary ot War Garrison is prejiarlng with the assist¬ ance of the most experienced men in the army. The purpose of the confer ences will be to obtain the viewpoints of the legislntive leaders and to get their approval of the Garrison jtlan.
The flrst and most important point In relation to the plans, appears to be that Secretar>' (Jnrrison will ask con-
Phnto hv American Tress Association
SECJIBTAIIY 0AKBI80N.
gress at the next sesslun for approxi¬ mately iii'J.".<MKKMHKI fcir the use of the nrmy.
When Secretary (Jiirrison appointed a committee of ranking otticers to go Into the ipiestious they presented thc various needs of Ihe army fmm their viewpoint and then advised the head of the deiiartment that it would require $(j(X).0(X».rxM) this year to provide the.se needs.
The secretary took the plans and an¬ alyzed them piece by piece until he has flnally cut the cost by .$.^'")n,000.(KK».
.\8 now worked nut the plans providi- for an army built along the following lines:
An immediate Increase of between 25,000 and 40,000 men and 1,000 offl¬ cers.
The present enlistment terms to be changed to the short enlistment, with a reserve provision which requires the soldiers to return to the colors niion call.
By the operation ot this plan the army at the end of flve years would consist ot ri00,000 trained men- IT.'i.OOO lu the service and 375,000 prepared to Join the colors at a moment's notice.
The theory upon which this plan was worked out was that the American standing army should be for defensive purposes oiilj'. In other words, it was prepared upon the assumption that the navy will be increased to such an ex¬ tent that it cati for a long enough time "^protect the two niMsts against ntta<'k to give the army a chance to build up a tremendous force with the ."iOO.tXXI men as a basis.
The plan provides for the enliirge- ment of the most important coast for¬ tifications nnd tlie use of the greatest guns at the |irincl|ial points.
.\ general incrense In nil branches of ordnance mul Ihe purrliMsc of a sto. k of ammunitiiin plentirtil enough to car rj' on nn initial ciinip.'iign.
In iidilltidii t<) the plan tor the rejni lar army there will be a number of suggestions for tlw standardiziition ot the militia. Becnuse nf the failure of most of the state ci'KMnizations to meet the stiindard.s .set ilown by the war dp partment it bss been deemed Inad\*Jj<a- ble to spend any j:i'eut amount of fed¬ eral nioney on these branches. It is declured thnt President Wilson wil! urge on the lenders that the proposeil Increase is Imperalive.
