STRONG POSITION.
"Manliestly the keystone of the defensive arch necessary to create this relatively "strong position in the Philippines is the trained citi zen army which will compel every attack to assume the character of a major overseas operation, and will-confront the enemy with the certainty of staggering costs in money and men.
"Three years ago. before the enactment of the national defence law any invading force could have attacked the Philippines without fear of any effective help from an organised and well-trained citizen army. Timea have changed. And as years go on, the Philippines will be more and more prepared. In 17 more years, the Commonwealth citizen army will grow to 30, divi- sions of 400,000 men. It will ever tually, at the fruition of the plan in its 30-year cycle, embody 30 divisions of more than 1,000,000
