US DEFENCE PROGRAMME.
Washington, August 2-Hanford MacNider assistant secretary of kwur, in an article written for the "United Press" on the ocension of the 12th anniversary of the begin- ning of the World War, said that! the present defence programmę į of the United-States was for more! comprehensive than It was in 1919.
He hoped that the application of science to military operations might serve to maintain peace or conserve man-power la rase of war but "war is the instrumentality which deter- mines the security of a nation and the index of that security may be found in the hearts of its citizen."
