As he wears the uniform of his organization, he must be a gen- tleman, first, last, and all the time, or he will disgrace his friends as well as himself. He must-love his country and serve it with a single mind, even to death. Not a bad platform for a young college man to learn, is it? Of the U. S. army officials who are cordially approving and aiding mili- tary training in universities, Dean Lloyd says: "The suspicion is quite un- avoidable that their approval is on half-a-loaf-is - better - than - no-bread grounds." Better than suspicion is a study of the facts. The purpose of military instruction in universities is set forth in General Orders No. 70, sec. 25, 1913, as follows: "The main object of the military in- struction given at civil educational institutions having army officers as professors of military science and tac- tics will be to qualify students who enter the military departments of such institutions to be company officers of infantry,; volunteers or militia." Do the universities accomplish what is expected of them? I shall take the case of our sister university in the state of Illinois, whose system of train- ing is practically that which it has been proposed to introduce at the University of Michigan. - The report upon the last inspection by the In- spector-General's Department contains the following statement: "The mili- tary instrnction is of such extent and thoroughness in the case of cadet of- ficers, as to qualify the average cadet as a lieutenant of volunteers." The professor of military science at the University of Illinois, Major F. D. Webster, U. S. A., in his report to President James, comments upon this report as follows: "The above report indicates that we are turning out men qualified to become officers of the vol- unteer army in case of emergency, and are doing our part to build up a re- serve force." The University of Illinois graduated 33 of this class in 1915,and will grad- uate 44 in 1916. Michigan with her three regiments, as against the two at Illinois, should supply 66 commission- ed officers each year for the United States volunteers, besides the much larger body qualified for non-commis- sioned rank and privates with train- ing. Testimony to the high value placed upon university military training by officials of the United States army when the training is ably conducted, is contained in the following letter which I am permitted to publish: Headquarters, Eastern Department, Governors Island, May 11, 1915. President E. J. James, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, Ill. Dear Sir: I wish to express to you my appre- ciation of the splendid work which is being done under your direction at the University of Illinois in the way of preparing the youth of our country to lischarge not only their civil, but also their military obligations. I have never been more interested anywhere than with the work which you are doing and the wisdom and foresight with which expenditures have been made with an eye to the future. If every Land Grant college had proceeded with equal sincerity and loyalty to the spirit of the Endowment act, with its obligation for military training, we should be far better prepared than we are for national defense in the way of trained men, and our people would have a much fuller conception of their abligations to the state from the sol- :ier standpoint than at present. I sincerely hope you will continue to :eceive the support and approval of the state authorities in the future, as you have in the past, and that the great university in your charge will continue to show the universities of sister states what can be done by well irected effort. It was an inspiring sight to see the two regiments, and I feel convinced that every man who has had military training will leave the university all the better for it, riot only physically, but morally and from the standpoint of a better appreciation of the duties of citizenship.

University men in case of a long coitinued general war are as a class certain to arrive at positions of command, whether they have orig- inally had military training or not. As a high official of the army says: "We realize 'that the best type of our young men are to be found in our colleges and universities and an enor- mous influence they will carry into public life. They are, or will be, na- tural leaders, politically in time of peace, and comnnianders of men in time of war. In the former capacity a lack of proper information as to our mil- itary history, policy and present sys- tem, certainly renders them incapable of intelligently voting on these ques- tions or shaping the opinion of others. "In the latter capacity, as command- ers of our citizen soldiery in time of sudden war without training and ne- cessary military education, they would be the unwitting murderers of their men. They would learn their business ate a cruel cost in lives, to say the least. "These students are physically, men- tally and morally good material for officers and such as desire or have a natural bent for the profession of arms, having duly qualified, should re- ceive a definite status in the military system of the country." Dean Lloyd argues that the function of training for soldiers belongs nor- mally to the government, as all must agree; and in conclusion he declares, "Soldiers or citizens who expect war or feel the danger of war should be, or quickly become, sufficiently rational and intelligent, say even academic, to call for effective, centralized, govern- mental preparation." The local branch of the National Security League, of which Dean Lloyd is a distinguished member, has recently been organized for no other purpose than the one he has indicated. Last Saturday at the first national convention of the organ- ization, no less than 200 delegates from all parts of the country assem- bled in Chicago for the purpose of determining the definite policy of the organization. This assembly is likely to become notable by reason of the eminence in public life of many of the delegates, whose number included no less than three ex-Secretaries of War of the United States. There was abso- lute unanimity that the country is in danger of invasion by a foreign power, and that it is now almost helpless to defend itself. A resolution was pass- ed calling upon the President of the United States to immediately make public the recommendations of the army experts upon measures of na- tional defense, with which the Presi- dent's announced program is under- stood to be widely at variance. If the committee of the university senate and the National Security League both favor immediate action by Congress to supply the elements of national defense, they none the less realize that when legislative action has been taken there remain enormous difficulties. No one of these- will be more serious than that of suplying officers to the enlarged army. The most hopeful quarter in which to look for material is the higher institutions 119 E.

Thrugh the shortage of army officers is serious and increases yearly, Mr. Garrison recommends that existing{ legislation be so modified as to permit the detail of one commissioned officer for each 400 students in training at universities as against one officer for each institution as now required by law.
