'The anbhta ia cordally Invited 1BESIGNS FItOM CABINET President Wonid not "Irrevocably" Support Vontinental Art Plan. Washington, Feb. 10.-Secretary Garrison resigned today because Pres ident Wilson would not "irrevocably" support the continental army plan and because the secretary of war'opposes the administration's programme of set ting a definite time for Philippine in depenilice. President Wilson accept ed the resignation and has not selected a successor. The president himself probably will take personal charge of the administration's national defense lplans in congress5. Assistant Secretary i'etcki n ridge also resigned as a miark of loyalty to is chief', whose views he shares. The jpresidenut ne'cepited hiis resigna tion,. IBoth take' effect iiuediately. Maj. Gen. Scott. chief' of staff of the arm y, au ad interiti. It is known that one of Sieretary (arrison's principal reasons for his 4eenviction that only a federal con Iin nlal arty. instead of a reorgan ired Nit ionaI (Gua dii, coti he he tuntin mnilitary delpendence of the- na tion was his beliefi that solie day the I'nit ed States may he en1ledi upon tj de fend tii' .\lonroe dioirine, and in that event he foresaw that the National ;iard i!glit not he available for use outside the 1'nited States before a de elaration of war. 1 UponI that contention, on the one hand, that the continental army or tiltimately tiniversal service was the nation's only reliance, and the posi tion on the other that no one plan could be enforced up1)on congress, lresident Wilson and his' secretary of war parted ollicial company. ir. Garrison's resignation was a c()11iete surprise to ofl'eial \\'ashing ton generally. lie made no personal e-:planation. Several hours before the official annouincemient he had hoard ed a train with his wife for New York and word had been Iassed at the war department that he had gone for an in delinite slay. The acute differences of opinion which led to the break began early in the year when oposilion to the continental army plan began develop ing in congress. ''here had been iii definite rumors of the possibility of the secretary leaving the cabinet, but they never were countenanced in of ficial quarters. The secretary every where was regarded as one of the strong men of the administration up on whom the president leaned In Ilie difficult. situations both domestic and international which have marked his ad min st rat Ion. The circumstances which led up to the resignation are detailed in he sec ietary's correspond 'ence with the president, which was tiade public tonight by the White I louse. The president. the letters dIstlosed, believed that the training, oraiiiza lion and c'ontrol of a military reserve should be under imnle(diate federal di rection, but was not "irrevocably or dogmiatic:ally comluitted t any one pian14."' lIc wr4o4e Alr'.
