Army to Stay Two Years in Europe Says Daniels
Secretary Daniels told state governors in Annapolis that U S troops may remain abroad at least a year or two before any return to normal peace conditions. He urged navy expansion to support an international police role and warned against quick demobilization while a peace conference ends naval arms races. He stressed shared sacrifice and unity to prevent privileged classes from monopolizing wartime gains.
