Harvard has my heartiest congratulations on its conclusive action in favor of universal military service.
A system of citizen military education and training similar to the systems of Switzerland and Australia which will train every able-bodied male in the country, yet without making them a permanent burden upon the finances of the nation or taking them from their ordinary occupations or professions, is vital to us.
Such a system will be the hydraulic cement to bind together all the magnificent building blocks -- an increased army, an increased navy, strengthened coast fortifications, coast railroads and waterways, the co-ordination of our industrial resources and energies -- into an enduring structure of peace, security and immunity from attack or insult. REAR ADMIRAL ROBERT E. PEARY.
