Garrison, Lindley M. (Lindley Miller), 1864-1932
Garrison, a lawyer, was a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania. He became U.S. secretary of war in 1913. After the outbreak of World War I, he stressed the need for a large regular army, and after a conflict with President Wilson over this policy, he resigned in 1916. Public attention was, however, focused on the unpreparedness of the country for war and in 1916 the National Defense Act was passed.
