looms on the horizon. This is the question of universal service or universal training, and the question of the formation of a standing army to take the place of the o'd standing army. It will be remembered of course, that every American soldier, including the members of the so-called regular army, enlisted for the period of the war only, and that when the war is over, enlistments will expire. The army will not then have a single enlitsed man except those who are willing to re-enlist at once under tho terms of the existing army act. PEACE TTaZB AKMY BASIS. The congress undoubtedly will have to proceed soon with the question of the formation of a peace-time army and in doing so. the question of universal service or universal training will automatically arise. If the sentiment of the country Is now gauged correctly, some sort of universal plan will be put In effect. The President s understood yet to be against It. The general staff and probably a majority of the congress, however, favor a universal training plan and it Is probatle that the Sixty-sixth congress will enact some such sort of law. This will mean, undoubtedly, that the troops of certain ages, somewhere around twenty or twenty-one will be kept in the army for a time, probably as tha nucleus under which the new law will be put into opera Ion. In addition to all these things, the -luestlon of demobilization Itself is almost as great a one as the question of rnising an army. There will be a strong sentiment, undoubtedly, for the Immed

iate return of the soldiers who have j beon overseas a year or more and for ; their replacement by troops who have! h.til no overseas service. This sentl-' :r,ent may result in continued calls for '

drafted men even beyond the period when prospect of resumption of hostilities fades away entirely. According to responsible authorities, the public need not expect any Immediate troop movement of consequence back to this country. The movement will be a gradual one n it will take a long time to get started and a longer time In which to be accomplished. Some have estimated that demobilization may take a year, but the idea of army officers is that a year is entirely too conservative as an estimate and that. It may take a year and a half to restore this country to a normal basis as far as the armies are concerned.
