ARMY OFFICERS GUT IN
HORSE SHOW EXPENSE

Washington, March 6.--ArEy off,
GERS were perturbed today by discoy-
cry of a provision in the army appro-
priation bill as it passed the House
which, if accepted by the Senate,
would preclude officers who are the
owners OF fine horses from exhibiting
their mounts unless they bear all the
incidental expenses. They hoped,
nnRerer, that the Senate would reject
the provision. The amendment was
offered by Representative Webb of
North Carolina, who urged it on the
ground that it would reduce expenses.
Army officers contend that their par
ticipation in horse shows has been of
great benefit to the service, teaching
tnen what good mounts are.
