Complete Victory Certain if Plan is Carried Through. The news from Washington that the war department is perfecting plans for an army of 3,000,000 men, to be mobilized next summer, will be welcomed by every American who realizes the weight of our interest in j victory and the scale upon which the j world war is being fought. We hope, of course, that peace wilt come before any more American lives are lost. But at the same time we w must understand that peace may not be attainable until the German military power is completely overthrown. Since this is a possibility, it would be an inexcusable presistence in our former folly of unpreparedncss not to proceed energetically to develop it not our full military strength, at 1 least a strength sufficient to make victory certain. We have made the costly mistake of not preparing for the situation we are now in, and must pay the price. But we are, awake now, and there is no excuse for further procrastination. The first months of the war have shown how difficult it is to organize . war efficiency. We have repeated delays of the most serious kind, confusion, division of council, errors of policy, waste of time and money. The result is that we are not nearly as far advanced toward war efficiency as American organizing genius ought to have assured. All the more reason, therefore, that we should plan ahead and accelerate action all along the line. The central powers have still great defensive strength. Let us not deceive ourselves on this vital fact. They occupy interior lines. They well suDDlied with munitions and M* ^ -- ?. ? guns. The role of the defensive is much less costly and requires a much smaller number of men than the offensive. If therefore the German government is not forced by other considerations to make peace, the war K" must proceed until German power is beaten down on the battlefield and 44 this will require a large increase of the Allied strength in the field?
