the United States to cope with a real military emergency. Despite the popular Interest aroused by the Ameri- can expedition into Mexico, the first. ten days of recruiting, after the cail went out for 20,000 more men, resulted, according to a statement by the War Department, in adding only 1,269 to the ranks. The Chairman of

the Military Committee of the Senate two months ago said: "We have not enough soldiers, in fact, to handle the Mexican situation; we have only 30,000 men in the continental United States, and only half of them would be available for Mexican service."

Revelations of this character have given a stimulne to the "preparedness campaign" of which we have been hearing so much lately, and supply a. reason for the recent decision to increase the standing Army to 140,000. The United States is no more prepared at the present time to enter upon a war with Mexico than Great Britain was in August 1914 to enter or a war against Germany. But like Great Britain, America bas the necessary resources at command
