The work of, bringing England's troops back home after the Boer War extended over a period of ten months. Theabove facts would seem to indicate that, even under the most favorable conditions since the American army in Europe is many times greater than any for ce of fighting men ever before sent overseas the return of our European army will necessarily take at least a year. However, in view of the fact that it will pro bably be necessary for America, as well as England, France and possibly other countries to main tain very considerable forces in or on the borders of Germany f,or a considerable period in order to see to it that the terms of peace are complied with, it seems quite possible that a large number of American soldiers may remain in Europe and thus delay complete demobilization of the expedition ary force for a number of years possibly a dozen or more.
