Detilis of the Newr A.my and4 Navy Changes ire Giveni to the Public for the First, Time. Washington, November 6.-An out i1,n of the army's part in the national defeise program to be submitted to Colgress in December by the adminis trat Ion was mado public Friday by Secretary (arrisonl disclosing oficial ly for Ilie first time details or the plan to Iaiso a great. colitilental 01 citizen army to sitiplement the regular es labli-Shmlenit. In brief, it is proposed to increase tile regular ariy from 108,008 to 1I4, 8 13 offlicers and ien (changing the term of enlistment from four years with the colors and three years oi furlough to two years with the colors aind four years on furlough); to or ganize a federal citizen army of 400, 000 (to be enlisted 133,000 a year for three years); to strengthen the state militia by Increased appropriations and closer co-operation; and to spend $20,000,000 a year for four yeaxrs on coast defenses and $26,000,000 a year for four years in the accumulation of reserve material for use by a force of 500,000 men. Mr. Garrison says that the framers of the new policy are fully conscious of the possibility of formulating mili tary policies lnch better in theory, but that "after concentrated consider Iation of existing legal and other con ditions they think it, will be found that almost insuperable objections and dif ficulties arise in carrying into practi cal operation suggest ions that from tle ilit ary standpoint might other wise be very acceptable. The statement reveals that in the preparat ion of their plans, War De partment otlicials have called into consultation special Ists in various lines of private industry. "It has been proposed," it says, "to make available in time of need the services of those in certain kinds of em ploymein t re(liiiring special lnowl ledge and skill, such as railroad men, bridge builders, engineers of all des cription, etc., and leading nien in these lines and professions have been collaborating with the War Depart ment in an endeavor to formulate, by legislation or administrative action, an acceptable and useful plan with re speet thereto. "III this connection, and because of Ihe patriotic spirit thus displayed it seems desirable to say that if those who are the emluioyers of the young men of the country cannot by reason of age or situation in life, give their personal service, they can do that which will Ibe equally useful by en coulraging in every way tle partili l)ation of those in their employ in (he plan of national defense. If they would so arrange their business that a certain proportion of those whom they engage could undertake this na tional service withiout sacrificing theii liersonal inter'ests, those wiho did this thing wvould be acting in the most piublic-spiriited and patriotic manner liossile. " The citizen army wvould be recruit ed thr'oughout the entire countriy and organized in geographical dlivisions. Its members, though enlisted for six year terms, would be required to re poirt for' intensive training only for short periods each yeair foi' thriee yeairs and duiring the r'emaining thr'ee years would be fur'louighed subject to call to the colors in time of wvar. In addition to offleers who may be deC veloped in the course of its oper'a tion, Mr'. Garrisun iproposed to (Irawi officers for this force from men wh'lo have ser'vedl in the national gaurd'( or~ the regular ar'my or, who have been trainedu in private military schools. Individuals oir organizations In the existing national guard fiee to do so would be permittedl to come into thle citizeii army without change of rank. F'or the inext fiscal yeair, whlen it is prop~osedl to puit this new policy) inito operation, conigress will lie asked to a ppropriate $182,717,036; the secondl year the amounit will be $21 2,81 5,879; the third'( $228,31 5,879, and annually thereafter' If (lie policy were continued wvithout change the army budget wvould be $182,234,559. The adlditions to the regular army contempilated are ten iregimnents of infantry, four regiments of field ar tillery, fifty-two regiments of coast artillery, fifteen comp~anies of engi neers and four aero squadr'ons, to he brought in half next yeair and half the following year. This plan wvhen completed would place in the Panama Canal Zone, Tiawiailan I slandls, the Philippines, and Alaska, 1,153 ofllcers and 47. 4156 enlisted men. In the continental Uinited States, there wiouild be in the regular establishment 2,956 oileers and1( 60,968 men includling eleven and1( two-thirds r'eglments of cavalry, 26 andu 2-3 regimnents of inifant ry, sevein r'egimen ts of field artillery, 170) comn panies of coast artillery and about foiir thousand oflicers and men in enginienr nnd inalnn cornpe. lIl1 DOUNIGS IN CHAlULESTON.
