Let Experts Tell the Truth
About the Army" He
Demands
FLAYS THE HOUSE
COMMITTEE
Men, Guns and Ammunition
Are Lacking, He
Asserts

Washington, Jan. 5.--Mustering long
array of figures, Representative Gardner
of Massachusetts, yesterday charged upon
the House military committee at the
belated hearing given him. lie com
planned that this body refused to grant
him the witnesses he desired and had not
undertaken comprehensive investiga-
ton of national security.
Picturng Americas army resources
graphically, he declared that the whole
army-militia, regulars and all-wouId
only garrison Paris, in other words
would fill only single line OF trenches
IS miles long.
The militia, he contended is not in
proper trim for war. He quoted the for
mer chief Of staff as showing that out Of
100000 national guardsmen, $4,000 tailed
to attend annual inspection, u 900 alb
sented themselves from annual ehcamp'
ment and $4,000 never appeared on the
rife range. America, he added, has only
634 completed modern guns and howitz-
ers whereas Russia, in a single battle
with Japan, had l,204 guns against o22.
The United States guns, he figured. are
sufficient only to equip "modest little
army of 1877, 900"
But the most serious deficiency ~
army preparedness, Gardner contended, Is
shortage of ammunition. He quoted Sec
retary Garrison as expecting $4,000
rounds by July |, and argued that IN a
single battle Of the japanese war hall
of this amount was shot away.
'In other words, he said, eight field
guns can shoot away ammunition as iast
as Uncle Sam can make il"
| He told the committee they scorned
General Wotherspoon's suggestion OF
need for 100000 men, because they would
not "listen to unpalatable evidence"
| In conclusion, he pointed out that
Germany's equipment includes 10 and
| and 1919 inch howitzers and s-inch NOR
tars. and England's pc inch howitzers
while the United States biggest movable
gun is the 8-inch howitzer, OF which
there are only 80.

marily closing its hearings so he could
not call witnesses from the war depart
ment. He fatty accused President vii
son of putting the soft pedal" ON on
GERS, and he claimed the whole subject
reverberated with the "twanging OF
party strings
His charges brought violent retort
! from Representative Howard. He chal-
lenged Gardeners charge against Wilson
At times three or four members were
talking together in heated tones.
HAY stated he had not called Gard
ners witnesses because they had all ties

Have you ever tried to amuse and

WILL NOT DIVIDE
STATE OF TEXAS
cBv Unissd Press

AUSTIN. Texas. Feb. 16-The bin
to make a separate state out of the
Panhandle section OF Texas, although
buried in committee today and fated
10 die by sentiment for the "grand
old state,V served its purpose. This
was. as its author, Senator w. A. John
son. pointed out in the preamble of
his resolution, to force the redistrict-
inc of Texas in accordance with the
last census.
The charge was specifically made
that liquor interests were largely res
ponsible for the failure to redistrict
and give the Panhandle section fair
representation in Congress. A "slush
fun to control state politics was men
toned. and the inhabitants of the pro-
posed new state Of Jefferson wished
to be free of such domination, it was
stated.
Immediately following the johnson
resolution, a redi5tricting bill was in
troduced and today was believed to
be certain of passage at this session
of the legislature.
The great size of Texas is known TO
every school child in America. The
proposition to divide Texas into two
or even more state is not a new one.
But this year the suggestion was re
ceived with less ridieule than ever and
a few political wlseacres were willing
TO predict that in the not far distant
future such a bill would have a fair
chance of passing the legislature.
Senator Johnson's hill proposed to
organize a new sovereign state out of
the -four western counties and the so
called Panhandle district. The pream-
bic declared this section was entitled
to two more Congressman than it has
today, that it supplies practically all
the public school lands and pays to
support free education in Texas out of
ali proportion to ether parts of the
state, and that IT'S representation in
the state legislature should be IN
creased.
The bin provided for the organiza-
ton of a Legislature and a constitu-
tional convention in the suggested new
state.
