Washington.-Any military policy
adequate to the nation's needs must
recognize the fact that wars come
suddedily and there must be instant
readiness to meet them," said Maj.
Gen. William H. Carter, recently re
tired, in a statement before the Sen
ate Military Committee.
"War is a condition which may be
forted upon us any day through dip
lomatic notes," he said, "without ac
tion by Congress." Great Britain's
declaration of war against Germany
and the Japanese attack upon Russia
were cited as illustrating the possi
bilities.
General Carter laid before the com
mittee a report submitted by him to
the Secretary of War last April be
fore his retirement and while he was
commander of the Department of
Hawaii. It was prepared at the sec
retary's request for his views as to a
proper military po!icy for th6 United
States and it seemed evident, he said.
that it formed the basis for the con
tinental army scheme. even to the

General Carter recommended in
creasing the standing army to 131.
500 men in the United States; that
the Federal volunteers be organized
and trained on the basis of an infan
try regiment to each congressional
district and that additional appro1

Instead of a period of Intensive
