[ C Lansing, Oct. 6-A new fire insur-' anee rato schedule, lowering rates from 7 to l(, percent on mercantile and iudustrial risks, was fIled with F. L. Henn, state insurance commission. It is estimated that the statewide re- duction will save policy holders in the neigihborhood of $2,000,000 a year. The subnission of the revised rate schedule vi: tually marks the last stepa in the capitulation of the inspection bureau to the state's campaign against alleged unfair 'and discrimatory rates.

These startling figures show the val- le of trained forces in war. In 1861 nine-tenths of our small Regular Army of 16,000 men was on the frontier, and notwithstanding the fact that the war pot had been boiling for years the lack o preparedness en- guled us in a domestic war the ruin-' os'*effects of which are yet apparent all over our South. With fifty thous- and regulars on the Atlantic seaboard the Rebellion could have been put down in its infancy. Pay [)early for Victory A a result of our failure to make reasonable preparations in peace time we have paid dearly for victory in all our struggles since the Revolution and have wasted both life and treas- ure. Our wars have been needlessly prolonged and our victories unduly delayed because we have fought with untrained men and with materials provided after the opening of hostil- ities at a cost of many times their peace time value. Our late war was no exception in this respect. Upon the advent of each war it has hcen necessary to build up a fighting machine and our methods have not' always been the best. The necessity' for Congressional action at the out- set of each and the time required to organize and train temporary forces have prolonged our wars. Untrained and inexperienced men have been placed in high positions not only in command of troops but in the pro- curement of supplies and material. politics have always played an injur- ious parnt in each of our wars dlue' prncipaily to the lack of prepared- ness. We were actually at war with Ger- many for 15 months before we were preparedl to put an army corps into the fight. During the late war thecaverage American soldier required 9 months' training at home and in France be- tore going into battle and the aver- age American division spent- 10 or 11 months in training before going into the line.- 'Our backwardness in thisj war came anear wrecking the civiliza- tioi of the whole world. Congres sees Mistakes Our present military policy as fin-! ally adopted by Congress in 1920, was designed to prevent a repetition of our' mistakes and wastefulness of the past, but there is grave danger of sliding down hill again through sheer ignor- ance on the part of many and the in- ifference on the part of some. Our military policy is not understood by re majority of our people and this plendid work of Congress is not fl- ly appreciated. Our military policy needs publicity. It must be "sold"' to the people. There is a lot of is- ~;ionary work to be done. The world was never more upset than it is to- day by mistrust, jealousy, greed and misunderstandings in the heart and mind .of mankind.' These are the things that bring war. While we are at peace'in our own minds with the whole world, we should take every sane step to safeguard our future, for in the event of another world confla- pration we may eventually be embroil- od just as we were in 1917. We have never waged an unholy war and never will do so. But if we: want that eternal peace which carries with it the exercise of human rights we must be prepared to defend our- selves and maintain peace. Elbridge F.
