OPPOSITION IN SENATE
TO BIG MILITARY PLANS
Vice President and Senators on
Record Against Greatly In
creased Expenditures.

Any attempt to increase to a large
extent the appropriations for the army
and navy over those of the present
year will meet with vigorous opposi-
ton in the Senate, it was learned to-
day. Senators CumminS of Iowa. Nor
ris of Nebraska, Hollis of New Hamp-
shire and Vice President Marshall all
went on record as being opposed to big
increases for the military establish
ment of the country, Notwithstanding
the fact that the greater part of the
world is now engaged in war.
Vice President Marshall declared that
he was man of peace.
while L don't want to seem to criti-
else or abridge the right of free speech
we should keep up at this time talk of
better preparing our army and navy
for war; said the Vice President. I'VE
don't need Il bigger army and navy. and
certainly we won't after we get rid of
the Philippines"
Senator CumInins said:
Il am not ready to bankrupt the peo-
pie of the United States at this time in
order to get ready for war. 1t is rea-
sonable to expect that partial and pos
sibiy complete disarmament will be the
outcome of the war in Europe
The traditional policy of the United
Senator Hollis, and to maintain a
large army and navy at this time would
be the payment of a premium for ma
tional defense out of all proportion to
the quantity received. This is the
poorest possible time to increase army
and navy expenses in a conspicuous
manner"
