49, -== - 4 ..
Washington, March 20--Sational
defense legislation siGctracked rou-
tine affairs at both ends Of the Capt.
tol today, and Congress finally be-
gan work on the major business o.
the session:
The House, converting at II o'clock
resumed consideration Of the Hay M.
my reorganization bill and the pend
ing Kahn amendment for a mobile
army of 100000 men. In the Senate
the Chamberlain bill. authorizing an
army Of $4,000 men, was scheduled
for consideration
The vote on the Kahn amendment
in the order will give the first evil
dence of the strength Of the big
army" element in the lower body. 1t
is not expected that the Kahn amend
ment will carry, but it is estimated
chat probably Il third Of the House
membership may approve it.
Chairman Hays bill provides ar
army of 100000 mon. The Kahn
amendment, therefore, would add So.
900 to this number.
The general impression is that
when the Chamberlain and Hay bill:
go to conference q substitute mea-
sure will be brought back carrying
authorization for AT army of about
100000. It is believed hota houses
will pass their bills practically as re.
orteG, but the conference commit
tee will work the compromise.
