The administration plan for th*- organ
ization of industrial preparedness again**!
war Is of* most sensible as w.Jl as .i t.
feature of the defense movement.
If there is on*1 thing the European * ^
filet has taught us it is that war is
mure than «>»r a* cal - i:.-l pf .»po«i*
and that th» nation with tin greatest in
dustrial resources wiil give the best a • |
count of itself in a military struggle An
army has at ail times been completely
dependent on its supplies In *-arii* r
centuries ft was the custom to depend
more or Jess upon chance for a large i
portion of what was needed by an army
during a campaign The country in whicn
the campaign was conducted was expect
«-d to furnish the major portion of what
an army required But will
veiopment of rapid hr* arms and armies
.cumbering inillioriS this was no longer
possible Now an army can no longer
detach itself from its base but must de
pend upon a stable source supplies
arid equipment Practically everything
employed by the army ri. ..si t**- produ* »d
by the nation which it represents
At in Napoleons' day an army “marches
upon its stomach but now a *iays its
tighunlg capacity dependent not so
much upon its provision train as upon
the munitions makers However great
may ie the military strength of a na
tion, as express*-*.! in na n and guns un
-
uons and means of subsistence they can
not hold their own in a modern war An
army of a million men but possessing ,
at horn* facilities for effectively main
taining only a halt million on the bat
tle lie id is only a half million strong
Back of the army must b* i great in
dustrial organisation to furnish it with
the supplies necessary to • ffectlve ac
tion. M«*n are, of course, the hist <*»- ]
sential of an army but. in flic absence|
of proper facilities for keeping tin- man'
supplied with the means of fighting he|
is speedily reduced to a secondary factor. ,
Everything must be brought to him in
adequate quantities or otherwise h*- is
practically helpless It therefore natur
ally follows that the nation whose in
dustrial resources are greatest or whose
ability to co-ordinat* its resources for
the work in hand has an undeniable ad
vantage in a military struggle One need
look no farther than Germany for an
example of the value of thorough indus
trial organization for war purposes, it
■ through Industrial organization alone
hat she has been able to keep her
am'eg up to such remarkable state of
• ffleleney that they are able to effectively
oppose three or lout times their number.
And. tin* reverse case Is Illustrated by
the long continued inability of the allies
to make but slight headway against a
i iirnerieauy inferior enemy owing to an
absence of means for supplying their
lighting units with the Immense quanti
ties of supplies and munitions needed
for offensive* action Their armies were
vastly superior but possessed neither suf
llclent supplies nor the means of fur
nishing them. Had the entente powers
possessed the same industrial organiza
tion as Germany at the outbreak of the
war the fate of that nation would have
been decided long ago
Wlthoqt ati effective industrial orgatil
j natlnti behind it an army is practically
helpless unless it is able to do as thi
allies have done—requisition the Indus
•rial resources of others to supply then
own defilciencies tl is not the inteniiot
of the autninistration, as many seem t.
think, to reduce American industry to f
war basis in advance of war The In
Juslrial preparedness movement is merely
designed m place at the disposal of tin
executive power full information con
cermng what our industrial resources are
I and how they may be speedily and ef
fectively brought to boar In supplying
the army and the nation In the event ol
a war arising
Should war develop it is of the mol:
I vital Importance that the country's great
industrial resources shall be turned with
j all speed from the activities of peace to
■ 'he purposes of war If the executive
power is in possession of accurate knowl
edge of me facilities of the nation everj
nduiiriai factor can be at or.ec brought
mo an harmonious organisation along
mes test suited to the defensive needs

THE NATIONAL ISSUE
_
Tru- New Republic
There aio two parties fighting for the
possession of the American national con
science
One party that headed by Mi Bryan,
eliev.-s that peace can be brought about
by avoiding wat and by keeping clear of
■elligerent* They embody an ancient
AAmerican tradition, but one which has
always beer, wrong—the tradition .f ir
responsibility Its advocates have per
sistently sought to keep the national or
ganization weak and the national policy
icgative. In Isit its spokesman Stephen
Douglas proposed to deal with the sla>
-ry question just as Senate! Gore pro
poses to deal with the issue of armed
merchantmen—that is. by letting the dif
ficulty alone. It gives voice to the easy
going, independent inertia characteristic
ft a prosperous Individualistic democracy
its opponents, on the other hand, ar.
try ing to arouse the American conscience
to a sense of new national obligations,
just aB they did in 1?SN in and in
the early vears of the progressive move
ment.
They are hampered by uncertainty as
to what their own positive program ought
to be and by popular ignorance and in
difference, but tin r>- is no infirmity of
purpose They are convinced as they
havi been in the past that they an- fight
ing for the moral integrity as Well as
the practical efficiency of their country
They are si-eking to translate the aspir
ations which, however imperfectly, have
molded its domestic policy into the terms
of foreign policy The recovery by the
American nation of its self-possession
and self-respect will hang upon theli
success
