ARMY PLAN BEFORE
HOUSE JJOMMITTEE
Secretary Garriion Explains Pln
for Creating Army of Million
Within Six Yean.
"WILL DOUBLE THE WAX BUDGET
WASHINGTON. Jan. 6. Secretary
Garrison laid before the houte mili
tary affaire committee today his for
mal argument In behalf of the ad
ministration' army plan which Is de
signed to Hire the country a definite
military policy. It proposee the crea
tion of a mobile federal force of more
than 1,000.000 men In elx yeara, ac
cumulation of a huge reserve of am
munition and equipment and elabor
ate extension of the coast defenses,
'the whole project involving an
expenditure of $600,000,000, and
'an annual War department budget
thereafter of more than $200,000,
000, as compared with an average of
;$100,000,000 for the last few years.
1 "The lntcTty of tha nation and It
jMtatenre." the secretary aatd, readln
ttrom a lens-thy statement he had pre
pared, "may depend upon what Is dona
jin this matter at thin time. This great
opportunity will be Inst unless a wise,
enable and practical policy la the result
mt the consideration and action of thla
fonrreea.''
Mtir MaUldei Reaa)aeltlllt lea.
. Referring to the far-spread military re
tponslMIIUf of the nation, reaching Into
Una Insular possesaiona, China, Alaska
pni the Panama canal sons, Mr. Oar
Tlaon added;
j " V a have determined and announced
(that the aoverelgnty of the other re
public on thin hemisphar ahall remain
Inviolable and must therefore at all times
tand ready to make good our position In
connection..
I "There la a disposition upon the part
f Kim," ha continued, "to aasuma that
we are forcing a ertais. The only way
to meet any emergency Is by adopting
(emergency measures. The personnel and
material needed for military purposes
ahould be Immediately mobilised. Every
feierve abould be strained and every re
aourre drawn upon and nothing over
Jocked necessary to preaerve and defend
a.a, regardlraa of cost and of other con
siderations. j "There Is common agreement among
(those who have studied the subject In
telligently that we ahould have a force
In the continental United States of
loftnc men subject to Instant call.
. "Our Immediate problem, therefore,
soema to be how shaU we meet these re
nnlrementa, ! "The adjutant general reaches the con
clusion that ha cannot expect, under
present conditions, to recruit more thsn
e,900 men per year for the army, it
(would, therefore, seem impracticable In
She last degree to consider that the prob
em can be solved by providing for a
Standing army of the alxe necessary for
his solution."
A 14 for Nation! Oaard.
' Tiimtng to tha National guard, Mr.
(Uarrison fcald: '-'
"At the present tlma thla force consists
t approximately iffl.OOO men and officers,
and. It would therefore be necessary, if
U is to be expanded to 400,000, to add
)m,a men and officers.
"t. therefore, propose a larga addition
lo the federal aid extended to th Na
tional guard, ae that the system may ba
operated to Its maximum capacity and
ba available for the federal purposes
specified, In Its' most effective condi
tion." The secretary then outlined tha con
tinental army plan which proposes to
raise 400.000 men in annual increments of
JSS.00O each from districts approximating
conaressionai districts, each to
uppiy 133 men annualy. The man would
nllat for three yeara with tha colore and
inreo yeara on furlough and will be
armed, equipped and officered.
Tha training would be dona by offlcera
xt the National guard and thev would
ba paid during tha tlma of their aervloe
pn the jr.e basla as the regular army.
aevcaty Thoaaaaa Heaaian,
Turning to ths question of tha site of
the regular army necessary to train tha
continentals and carry on the various
military activities lot the War depart'
ment In normal tlmee, Mr. Garrison said
It had bean demonstrated to him that a
, mobile farce of 10.000 men and 20.000 eoaet
aruuery troops would serve all needs.
Bach a force, an Increase of nearly 40,000
ever the present array, he aald, would be
- comparatively inexpensive, would require
no additional quarters and could be re
cruited. For these reasons he recom
mended the addition ef ten regiments of
Infantry, four regiments of field artillery.
fifty-two companies of coast artillery
fifteen companies ef engtneera and four
aero equadrona to the present force.
bringing tha enlisted strength In two
yeara up te IH.70? and the number ef
offlcera to T.08S.
"The officers and men ef the new or
ganlxattona are absolutely essential If tha
War department plan la to b fairly
tried out." he added. "In the plan ef
tha war college division of the general
staff, an army of about B0.OUO Is so dis
tributed that in continental United States
there would be left in, 000 mobile army
troops. In tha War department plan,
these divisions are st peace strength, so
that tbey are capable of expauaion. Tha
war college division plan proposed a two
year enlistment, with six years In te
eerva and. eventually, at tha end ef eight
yeara, makes up a line of W0, 000 me a
of the regular army, of whom 111,090
would ba with the colors and STI.000 in
reserve."
Hay Aeka QaeetUas.
Chairman Hay asked If recent orders
it the War department would prevent
army offlcera from giving the committee
free expression of their individual views.
"They are free es air," ths secretary
replied. "Tbey are bound only by vocabu
lary and conscience."
The secretary developed no definite op
position te his plans during the early part
of his examination by members of tha
committee. Representative Kahn, repub
lican, asked if the Monroe doctrine was
not a constant source of denser to tha
country, against which preparation must
be made.
"Absolutely," aald Secretary Garrison.
"We must be prepared te defend tt er
. abandon it."

General Hamilton describes ss weakened
In numbers though not In spirit.
First, our men were shelled by every
enemy gun." he ssys, "then sssaulted by
a huge column consisting of no less tlian
a full division plus three battalions. The
North Incashlre men were simply over
whelmed In their shallow trenches by
sheer weight of numbers, while the Wilt
shires, who were caught out In the open,
were literally almost annihilated."
Sweep Over treat.
"The ponderous mass of the enemy
swept over the crest and swarmed round
tho Hampshire and General Baldwin's
brigade, which had to give ground, and
were only extricated with great difficulty
and very heavy losses.
"Now, it wss our turn. The warships
snd the New Zealand and Austrlllnn sr
tlllery. an Indian Mountain artillery bri
gade and the Sixty-ninth brigade i4yal
Field srtlllery, were getting the chance
of a lifetime. Aa auccesslve solid lines
of Turks topped the crest of the ridge,
gaps were torn through their formation
and an iron rain fell on them as they
tried to reform in the gullies.
"Not here only did tha Turks psy dearly
for their recapture of the vital crest.
Kncmy relnforcemente continued to move
up under a heavy and accurate fire from
our guns. Still they kept topping the j
ridges and pouring down the western
slopes of Chunnuk Bair, as If determined
to gain everything they had lost. But
once they were over the crest they be
came exposed not only to the full blast
of the guns, naval and military, but a
battery of ten New Zealand machine
guns, which played upon their serried
ranks st close range until their barrela
were red hot.
I.oaaea Enormous.
"Enormous losses were Inflicted and the
swarms which had once fairly crossed the
crest line only a handful straggled back
to their own aide of Chonnuk Balr.
"At the aame time strong forces of the
enemy were hurled against the spurs to
the northesst, where there arose a con
flict so deadly that It may be considered
the climax of four daya' fighting for tho
ridge. Portions of our line were pierced
and the troops were drlwpo clean down
the hill. At the foot of the hill the men
who were supervising the transport of,
food and water were rallied by Staff
Captain Street. Unhesitatingly they fol
lowed him back, where they plunged Into
the midst of that series of struggles, In
which generals fought in the ranks and
men dropped their scientific weapons and
caught one another by the throat.
The Turks came on again and again.
Fighting magnificently and calling upon
the name of God, our men stood to It
and maintained by many a deed of dar
ing the old traditions of their race. There
was no flinching; they died In the ranks
where they stood. Here Generala Cayley,
Baldwin and Cooper and all their gallant
men achieved great glory. On this bloody
field fell Brlgldier Oeneral Bsldwln, who
earned his first laurels on caesar'a camp
at Ladysmlth. There, too, fell Brlgldelr
General Cooper, badly wounded.
No Live Tark Left.
"Toward thia supreme struggle the ab
solute laat two battalions from tha gen
eral reserve were now hurried, but by
10 o'clock in tho snoriUng the effort of
the enemy wss spent. Soon their shat
tered remnants began to trickle back
leaving a track of corpses behind them.
By night, except for prisoners or
wounded, no live Turk was loft upon
our side of the slope."
Two lesser attacks were made by .the
Turka the aame day. Oeneral Hamilton
contlnuea:
"By evening the total casualties of
Oeneral Blrdwood's fores had reached
11,000 and Included a very large propor
tion of offlcera. The Thirteenth division
of the new army under Major General
Shaw had alone lost ,000 out of a grand
total of 10,600. Brlgldier General Baldwin
was gone and all his staff men and
commanding officers, thirteen, had dis
appeared from the fighting effectives.
The Warwicka and Worcestera had lost
literally every single Officer.
"The old German notion that no unit
could stand the loss of more than
twenty-five per cent has been completely
falsified. Tha thirteenth division and
the Twenty-ninth brigades of the Tenth
Irish division had loat more than twice
that, and in apltit were game for aa
much more fighting aa might be required.
Held Alt They Gala.
"The British had held all they gained,
exoept two important salient, one a hill,
momentarily carried by the Gurkhas,
and the position en Chunnuk Balr. which
had been retained forty-eight hours.
"Unfortunately," says General Hamil
ton, "these two pieces of ground, small
and worthless aa they aeamed, were
worth, according to the ethica of war,
lAOOO."
LINER REACHES NEW
YORK WITH GUNS
Italian Ship Arrivei with Mounted
Cannon in Charge of Royal
Navy Gunners.
UNITED STATES WILL OBJECT
NEW YORK, Jan. 6. Gunners of
the royal Italian navy were In charge
of the two guns on the Italian liner
Giuseppe Verdi, which arrived here
today from Genoa, Naples and Pa
lermo, according to the captain, Luigl
Zannonl.
After the vessel left Talermo, the
captain said, dally practice was held
with tho guns, barrels having been
thrown overboard as targets.
Tht guns were placed on the Giu
seppe Verdi by order of the Italian
naval authorities, but the captain de
clares he wag instructed to use them
for defensive purposes only.
Two gunners became extremely pro
ficient In the practice of shooting at the
barrels passengers sale. The guns were
mounted on the afterhouae of the vessel,
one on either side and were In such posi
tion ss to command all positions from
the ship.
The captain described the guns as hav
ing a caliber of 7? mllimeters, capable
of firing a shell weighing fifty-five kilos
four snd one-half miles.
When the Gulaeppe Verdi docked here,
E. A. l"owsey, a member of the port
neutrality squad. Inspected the" guns and
reported his information to Dudley
Meld Malone. collector of the port.
The guns are still on the ship and no
action will be taken by local offlclala
until a report of the Investigation haa
been made to Washington.
After leaving Palermo on December 84,
all lights on tho Giuseppe Verdi were
carefully concealed, and during the day
time tho steamer covered a roundabout
course for tha purpose of avoiding hos
tile submarines.
State Department to Act.
WASHINGTON, Jsn. 6,-The State de
partment probably will take up with the
Italian government the question of guns
mounted on the liner Giuseppe Verdi
with a view to having the pieces dis
mounted before the ship leaves American
waters.
A "For Sale" or "For Kent" Ad placed
In The Bee will accomplish Its purpose.
