§ 12. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYasked the Secretary of State for War whether he has any information as to proposals to introduce compulsory military training for the army of the United States?
§ Sir A. WILLIAMSONAn Army Reorganisation Bill was introduced into the United States Senate on the 9th January last. This Bill, which was prepared by the Military Affairs Committee of the Senate, proposed universal military training. The Bill was read twice and was referred back to the Military Committee. An Army Reorganisation Bill has also been introduced into the House of Representatives, but this Bill makes no provision for universal training. Neither of the above Bills has yet gone into Conference.
