told the committee he thought the
country ought to give it a further
trial. At that point Mr. McKellar of
the committee said.
"However, while we are, as yo say,
experimenting with one system, do
you not think it would be wiser to re­
quire all officers of the government,
as a disciplinary measure, io give it a
fair trial, without constantly holding
it up or attempting to hold it up to
the ridicule of the public; in other
words, if we are to have a fair trial of
it, why not let us have a fair trial of
it without constant—to use a slang
expression—knocking on the part of
those whose duty it is to give it a fair
trial.”
And this was Secretary Baker's sig­
nificant reply:
“You would probably rob the secre­
tary of war of some very necessary
and useful information by a rule of
that kind, because if the secretary of
war was called upon to put officers i:t
command of troops he probably
would like to
know those who
had the most sympathy with the
troops and those who had the least,
so he could omit those who had the
least.'.’
What else was that but an ugly
warning that officers daring to offer
counsel that was not satisfactory to
’he administration would be marked
for administration disfavor?
In the end the administration had
to give up “experimenting” and fol­
low the course that General Wood

years before. It came reluctantly to
federalization of the national guard,
reluctantly to the draft, reluctantly to
a greater increase in the regular army
and reluctantly to vigorous prepared­

The Wonders Under the Lid.
------ o------
The war department has lifted the
lid from its army transportation ac­
tivities and let us see what is beneath.
It tells us that 800,000 men are now
in France, that 1,000,000 will be there
by July 1 and that they are going
across at the rate of 150,000 a month.
Put an average 06 3000 on a ship
and this means that 50 transports a
month are crossing the ocean. They
are not sa'ling s jparatcly, but in vast
convoys; yet they are going at an
average rate of nearly two every day,
producing that bridge of ships of
which we have heard much.
No such stupendous transport of
troops was ever before attempted in
the history of warfare. If no other
evidence were available, the , success
of this great movement would prove
that the German submarine campaign
has failed. But this is only the begin­
ning.
