"The importance of the regular j ui my hciioois eauuoi ie over staled," said the secretary. "It is our only means of assuring that our officers will be thoroughly competent to command; that our system of instruction will be uni form, and that the army of the I'nltcd Sillies (Regular Army, Na tional Ouard and Organ hed Re serves) will be modern and not as unfitted for the next war as the type of army used In the Spanish American War would have been for the World War. "There is no substitute for an i efficient school system, short of war Itself. The small and widely scattered regular unity units are loo skeletonized to permit of the proper I ruining1 of officers or men. Annual maneuvers such us Kng laud, I' ranee, Italy and Japan hold are out of the question. ''On the summer following gradual Ion t he officers from the various schools are sent to train ing camps to assure t hut the Na tional (i-uurd, Organized Reserves, R. O. T. C. and C. M. T.
