ganized. Phillips says, however, thata serious difficulty in the road of furtherprogress lies in the relative inaccessibilityof rifle ranges to centersof population. Through the formationof automobile rifle clubs, he believesthis difficulty could be overcome.Hall has expressed his willingness to

become associated with the project, andhas pledged his support to this end. Inaddition, there are approximately 1,00001d8mobile dealers throughout theUnited States, many of whom may beexpected to follow the lead of theirchief, and act as nuclei for any organizationplan that may be evolved.In its eventual outcome the enterprisepromises to be of benefit to the

preparedness of this country in twoways: First, It will provide for a largenumber of trained riflemen who canbe converted into infantrymen on shortnotice, and, second, it will place at thedisposal of the War Department a largenumber of privately owned automobilesto act In conjunction with the UnitedStates Army. The accomplishment ofeither of these objects, say militaryexperts, would do much toward establishingthe United States on thebasis of preparedness she must reach tobe safe against all encroachment.
