Washington, Nov. 6.—An outline of the army’s part in the national de- Lfense program to be submitted to congress in December by the admin- istration, has ‘been made public by Secretary Garrison, disclosing of- ficially for the first time details of the plan to raise a great continental or citizen army to supplement the regu- lar establishment. In brief, it is proposed to increase the regular army from 108,008 to 141,843 officers and men (changing the terms of enlistment from four years with the colors and three years on furlough to two years with the colors and four years on furlough); to organize a federal citizen army of 400,000 (to be enlisted 133,000 a year for three years); to strengthen the state militia by increased appropria- tions and closer co-operation; and to spend $20,000,000 a year for four years on coast defenses and $26,000,- 000 a year for four years in the ac- cumulation 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 much better in theory, .but that “after concentrated consid- eration of existing legal and other conditions they-think it will be found that almost insuperable objections and difficulties arise in carrying into practical operation suggestions from the military standpoint might other- wise be very acceptable. The statement reveals that in the preparation of their plans, war de- partment officials have called into consultation spécialists in~ various lines of private industry. For the next fiscal year, when it is proposed to put this new policy into operation, congress will be asked to appropriate $182,717,036; the second year the amount will be $212,815,- 879; the third, $228,315,879, and an- nually thereafter if the policy were continued without change the army budget would be $182,234,559. “B0B” WRIGHT, FORMER RESIDENT, INJURED “Bob” Wright, formerly of this city, was injured while riding on a train-and it was necessary to ampu- tate his right foot, according to-an article published in the Little Falls Herald.
