FRANCE'S RBURGANIZED ARMY,
AN INTERVIEW WITH M. DOUMLR.
Paris, Supt. 14.
France's new model in national defence be gad he first trial at five o'clock yesterday morn- ing in the contral' provinces. "By the end of the weak umpires, exports, and laymen at large. will have sena whether the modernised, des mocratised a.my is a weapon to inspire, cou &dence. For this year's manœuvres display the two-years' couscription law applied in operations framed by the Ecole Supérieure de

*M. Paul Doumet, chairman of the Eudget Committee of the Chamber of Deputies, which. has sincționed the increased exproditure to perfect the now, model, will attend the 'mance- avres with two colleagues, M. Borteaux, ex-; Minister of War, and M. Gervais, reporter of the Army Budget. It was be who led the attack on General Anded's administration of the army, with its partisan promotions and its subordination of professional strength to poli tiči. As the successful Governor-General of Indo-China for six years and candidate of the Contre and anti-Sociaist" parties at the last Presidential election, he has the support of áll. pátriotic Frenchmen who determined that their country shall maintain its place in the world.

"I was oot a supporter of the Two: Year' Enlistment Bill when it was first produced, ̧said M. Donmer. “My friends and I had some' misgivings as to its working. The prospect of a transition period in its application could not be faced without disqajatude. But now I say frim direct personal knowledge that there, han” been no transition period; the system is ab, assured success. Experience has shown that the French conscripts' quickness of intelligence adapted itself at once to the now conditions. be recniks took to discipline by instinct. Only in the cavstry was there the slightest transitory bitch, due to the rule that the cavalry must move at once on a mobilisation order and may pot wait to fill its squadrons.

lory. Germany has now 144 guns to each army corps and France has ga; each French battery has four guns to Germany's six guns. The in crease is in no sense a present necessity; it ́is a provision to maintain our superiority in the fature'; for we are superior. - Experiments with quick-firing guns have shown that numbers are not the ruling factor. French gunners Yava by infinite practice acquired complete mastery of their weapons. Their fire is overwhelming ; muzzle velocity is greater than with the Ger- man artillery, and, the recoil of our guni being reduced to a minimum, their service is quicker, Our shells are heavier and throw more abou over a larger one. The Germans cannot yet usa their new material; they use it as they used the old. One of our generals has said that if war broke out now France migh. rejoice that Germany was using her new guos and not her old, which at any rate she understood how to sorva. With her new guns her artillery could at present only squander ammunition without effect. It is thus with 'a tole' view to the future that we intend to increase our AND artillery. Our defence will be kept steadily at the height of our requirements; for a nation may have tranquillity when it is strong! not atherwise,"
