War department officlals therefore do not expect as complete a test of the muster system as would have been possible at a later day tn the year, but they wil) employ every resource to make it the b demon- stration possible under the elreuim- etences. Mr, Davis will instruct the depart- ment to make a comprehensive study of the results obtained this year and on the September 12 defense test of last. year, in order that the presi- dent can have a full understanding of the independence of the date to be selected for musters in future years. This information ‘will be available to commissions should the question of establishing the annual muster project by law is taken up at the coming session, The following letter was’ sent by the president to Mr. Davis: . “On the eleventh instant you sub- mitted to me a proposed plan of the war department to hold on next Ar- mistice day, November 11, 1925, °a second defense test of the same gen- eral character ‘as the one which was held last September. You state that the same conditions exist now which made a muster and inspection of the army of the United States desirable last. year and that the plans con- template that the test will resemble more the nature of the “muster day’ of. Colonia! times. “T have no objection to the holding of this test this year but I do not approve of your proposal that it ‘be held on Armistice Day. If you con- sider It advisable to hold the Wefense test this year, I would suggest July 4th as being a more appropriate date, otherwise I think it desirable to get authority of congress if any day not a national holiday is pro- posed. . "It occurred to me that your com- munication to the governors of the several states would emphasize that thelr response to the proposed test plans {s purely voluntary. I men- tioh ‘this for the reason that their actions must’ necessarily be predicat- ed on what they consider to be the best interests of thelr states.”” COLO WAVE HITS EAST STATES (Continued From Page One) snow and freezing temperature.
