It Is public sentiment he is de veloping now more than anything else, for he believes thst once public senti ment crystallises Congress will feel the pressure and will be more dis posed than ever before to consider seriously the creation of an Army re serve. Arsay Mrs ta Be la-Haded. A Congrrsslnnally authorised Army reserve would be made up of others be sides men trained at the Summer camps. It would Include officers and more especially enlisted men who re tire from the regular service; It would Include men who have had military training In the National Guard and In the armies of other countries But one of the most I m porta n sources would be the Regular Army. ana. from that aource tbe bulk of th reserve could be enlisted. In General Wood's opinion. If Congress would shorten the term of enlistment In th Regular Army, so as to Invite Into th service thousands of young men who are wining to give a year or two to perfecting themselves In the military art. provided they can be at liberty to take up other pursuits after they have become trained aoMtera.

The Improvement means tne lower ing of Broadway at Williams avenue and at Ross street two feet. Tbe change will affect Williams avenue and Ross street for about one block on each side of Broadway. A slight lowering of grade will be necessary at Van couver avenue. The cbangea at Will- lama avenue and Broadway would have left the building owned by Mr a.
