J 1 Up to the present time war depart^ment officials say, the project of utilizing the militia to build up a federal force for national defense has been an utter failure. An elaborate mechanism for recruiting the national guard has been abandoned.

It is estimated that between .7,000 and 20,000 men must be added ivery year to bring '.in- regit Us arin> jp to the peace strength authorized by he army bill. Reouits to th *; number ire now being obtained. "WilitJa Ilecrnit'i-g u Failure. The militia experiment, however, has roverecl a sufficient period to warrant he conclusion tbat this branch cannot >e reli"d upon. At the outset the war lepartioeiu air hot heed the establish nent of three recruiting parties for ;ach regiment, each consisting of, an jfllcer, a petty officer and an enlisted nan. After six weeks trial of this ;ystem during which no progress was nade, orders were Issued to departnental commanders to close the re:ruitine stations. It 1b now a foregone conclusion, ac:ording to military experts, that the Jnited States must rely upon its inadeluate regular military forces alone as i first line of defense. It seems injvitable that the question must again >e put up to Congres and serious conjideration given compulsory military .raining. The events of the last two years In Europe have changed the point of view jf the officers of the general staff. It itas been demonstrated, they beliove, that therp can be no compromise heween voluntary service and compulsory iraining. The first has been shown to oe Inadequate. It has been abandoned not only by the countries of 'Europe but by most of the important countries Df South America. Border Inactivity Blamed. Two years ago or le^s. there were many officers who believed that the voluntary system could be made adequate in the United States. Since then It has been demonstrated that an enemy can strike so quickly with tremendous forces that the resources of Khf whole conntrv must be mobilized speedily and an army much larger than ban be raised by the; voluntary system put into the field at once to withstand the shock. Friends ot the national guard are not yet ready to admit that it has been a failure. They contend that the stagnation in recruiting is due to the unusual conditions prevailing on the Mexican border, where the troops are kept without any chance of actual fighting. They probably will demand a further trial of the system. Celluloid wings for aeroplanes, said to be so transparent that the}' are invisible 300 feet in the air. have been invented by a German engineer.

(<'orr?>H|>omlf*nc?' of AxsoclatiMl ttresiO TOKIO, Nov. ^7.?field Marshal Ternuchi's most persistant political enemies admit that he has built up a; cabinet which contains at least two of the "strong" men of the empire. They are Viscount Ichiro Motono. the now minister for foreign affairs and Baron Shim pel Goto, Japan's great medieo-sLatesinan. who has been desigisf iliA tnt UI IUU IIUVI 1UI< Of the remaining members of the cabinet several are very well known to the Japanese though less prominent abroad. Three of thorn are members of the House of Peers from which body Premier Terauehi expects to 11 nd substantial support in carrying out his program which he has announced as being a strengthening of the nation's resources and united and serious exertions on the part of all the people for the effecting of reforms in all departments of national life. The members from the House of Peers are wuron Kenjlro Don. the new minister'of education; Klyoshi Nakashoji, the minister of commerce and agriculture, and Ryohci Okada who holds the portfolio of education. General Kenichi Oshima and Admiral Tomosaburo Kato, the ministers of army and navy respectively, have been brought over from the outgoing Okumn ministry. The keenest interest exists throughout Japan as to whether the ministry will be able successfully to weather the coming session of the diet on account of the apparent total lack of support * " -A tiU*. ill tile House or nuprvseuuiuvva. ? nu attitude of the newly organized majority or constitutional party under Viscount Takaaki Kato is understood to be hostile. K. Hara. the head of the Seiyukai or minority party, has announced his position as a sort of benevolent neutrality. He said: "Our party will hold an absolutely neutral position but it will give Its support to anything that is in the interests of the public and agrees with the principles of our party." Ho went on: "We must all work for the expansion of our national influence and for the perfection of a true constitutional government: As for the new cabinet we must observe its policy, admiring what is to be admired and attacking when attack Is deserved. The most important thing Is to foster patriotic nationalism for the sake of the nation and the people." The fact that Viscount Motono was one of the fraraers of the Russo-Japanese alliance while ambassador at Petrograd and the belief! that Count Terauchi himself has strong Russian sj'mpathles has led many friends of the Anglo-Japanese alliance to fear that the support of the new ministry will be thrown primarily in putting Into effect the Russian aljlance as against the British. It is remarked,that Count Terauchi Is the president of ihe Russo Japanese society arid that Baron Goto, the now minister of the interior. Is the vice president. As to the policy of the new cabinet' towards the United States great satisfaction is expressed by representative Japanese that Premier Terauchi'a recent declarations to the Associated Press should; have received such a cordial welcome In the United States. The new cabinet has its yet made no formal declaration of Its principles and Count Torauchl's interview has given practically tlie only indication thus far of the cabinet's attitude on foreign questions. In a leading article the semi-official Japan Times says that a very Important statement on the foreign policies of the empire has been made to the world by Count Terauchi through the Associated Press. The newspaper continued: "It Is gratifying that the premier has-given, an unmistakable assur atice to the world that there will be no change in the line of. action his cabinet will pursue in the conduct of our-foreign relations. If Count Terauchi as premier places statesmanship before soldiership, his simplicity, and. sincerity as a soldier will stand him in good stead and wo do not hesitate to declare that; he can be depended upon to adhere1 faithfully to his assurances. If he has in the past been criticized for what has been described as his iron rule in Chosen (Korea),! he has never yet been charged with going hack on his words." The Journal expressed satisfaction with Count Terauchi's attitude towards the United States and concluded with the conviction that. Japan's foreign relations ,wlll be perfectly safe in the hands of the new premier. The Asahi which publishes an edition in vboth Tokio and Osaka, adoptee a different strain. It expressed its astonishment that Count Terauchl who is very reticent to his countrymen should give such an .important interview to a foreign correspondent in regard to his foreign policy. The Journal admitted disappointment . should the * aI ( >1 ava! An a ft premier h rurcigu uuiuwjk ? outlined; by him," thinking that; while hlB Internal "administration wlU be constructive he will adopt a "Lalsser Fairo" attitude In his foreign policy. It thought that the Japanese people would prefer Count Terauchl to, reverse his program and do some constructive work in diplomacy. Tno Asahl continued"The :land and Immigration questions have been pending between Japan and America for a number of years, and bqdly stand In need of a fundamental solution. Instead of being bolstered, up by, temporizing, measures. Marquisi.Okuma was:, too touch ?ELE0RA>I?MONDAY.

"Besides the land and Immigration questions, which are pending between Japan and America, It will be necessary for Japan to know definitely America's attitude towards China. Japan's position vis-a-vis: China is somewhat of a peculiar character, but as long as the economic, activities of foreign countries in China do not exert any political pressure on Japan. It will not only obstruct their enterprises in China but will welcome them, as they will materially contribute Iowa vds the opening up of the resources of the country. For this reason It Is necessary tha I Americans shouId be convinced of the real intentions of Japan and of the advantage of working conjointly with the Japanese in China. "If Count Tornuclii Is really anxious frtp r?-lr*nrllv? IiaIwopti Iflnflll ? *.?? ' ? ? IVMUt,' ' B V ?t? liB'V'B.B*^ ?? Vv <*(" * ? W f ?? ? and America he should have dispensed villi formal polite phrases and frankly stated what he requires of the United States. Honesty after all is the host policy in diplomacy, as in business. Leaving China in Its present condition is distinctly inimical to the interests of China itself as well as those of Japan, and herein lies the necessity for Japan to render assistance to China and to direct it along! the path of civilisation. In connection .with the so-called! American problems it is to be noted that several writers, including Professor Shigco Suhehiro, of the Imperial University, have recently advocated the settlement of the immigration and land questions, holding the "gentlemen's agreement" as discriminating and unsatisfactory to the dignity of the Japanese people. Viscount Alotnno. the new forelsm minister, like Marquis Oku ma, is a native of Saga prefecture and is the son of a samurai of thd Saga elan. Horn in 1S62, he went to France at an early age. and studied international law at the University of Lyons. Graduating with the degree of "doctor en droit" ho returned to Japan to enter the foreign oIIIcg. Later he was secretary of the embassy at Potrogrnd and then minister to Brussels. For five years he was minister at Paris. He was appointed ambassador to Russia In 1!)06. While sojourning at Toklo he lectured constantly on international law. In 1!>07 he was created baron in recognition of his services In concluding the Russo-Japanese railway convention and was promoted to viscount last summer for hla distinguished service to the state in concluding the alliance between Japan and Russia. Viscount Motono is regarded as Japan's most accomplished diplomat. Having spent about half his Jife in Europe either In study or in: official service and being regarded as one of the intellectual lights of the realm, ail Japanese deem him particularly fitted for the post of foreign minister. He is popularly supposed to be more at home in French than in his mother tongue and during his long residence in Russia an ambassador acquired a knowledge of the Russian language. Also ho speaks English readily. Regarded as one of Japan's scholars, he is also considered by the Japanese as ft perieci type 01 cuiluiuu jaimu?ov gontlemen. "Though deeply inttuencea by European civilization," says one writer, "Viscount Motono remains ever a true samurai. It was his personal character as well as his capacity which made friendship with Russia possible and voiced this friendship practically into an alliance."
