United States, giving the country its

plan would have called for a total ex-
penditure of $1S2,000,00O.
Doubles West Point Cadets Corps.
The bill also provides for doubling
the cadet corps at West Point and Gre
alton of thirty cadet companies to be
attached to regular regiments to be
trained for entry into an officers re-
serve corps.
The committee members found them
selves in such general accord as to the
general aspects of tie measure they
favored that it required little discus
sion to produce the plan of authorizing
Mr. Hay to frame bill. which will be
taken up for detailed consideration to-
morrow. Mr. Hay already had pre-
pared rough draft of the measure as
p opoSSA' anu hc tIouSHl II Couiu pS
whipped into final shape acceptable to
all members within two weeks.
The House measure will undertake
the task of liberalization on the unani-
nous opinion of the committee that
Congress has power under the Consti-
tuition to take full control of the Ma
tional Guard in peace as we'll as war.
Under that authority the bill will au-
thorize maximum strength for the
National Guard of 425.OO0 on basis of
500 men for each member of Congress;
will specifically prohibit the disband-

granted to all national guardsmen, 50
that a captain of the organised militia
will receive $500 a year from the Unit
ed States, a first lieutenant $500, a
second lieutenant $3.50 and an enlisted
private of infantry SIS year. This is
part Of the plan for the federaliza-
ton of the National Guard. which is
the feature of the new army plan in
lieu of the discarded Garrison con-
tinentai army scheme. 1t also is the
feature of widest interest.
However, when the bill is completed
and ready for report to the House it
will be found to contain authorization
for the increase of the standing army
by ten infantry regiments and four ar
tillery regiments, f1fty-f1ve coast artil-
1ery companies and other minor addi-
tions. bringing the peace footing of the
regulars to $4,000, instead of 100000
as at present.
Estimate of Total Enrolment.
BY enlisting these regiments to war
strength the standing army would be
at 275,OOO. This increase includes au-
for 1000 officers. instead of
$500 as at present. The total peace
strength of the army and the National
Guard is figured al $4,000.
A system whereby men retired from
the army or the organized militia will
form a reserve, also system of train

The House committee bill will add
provision for a National Guard re-
serve and for recruiting regiments sent
to the front.
Members of the committee say that
consultation with high legal authori-
ties has assured them of the feasibility
Of their plans under the law. They
believe that appointment of officers is
virtually the only power in respect to
the National Guard vested in the states
by the Constitution. and argue that
the purse strings and requiring that
only those who pass suitable eXamina-
tions may draw pay even that difficulty
will be removed.

partment in the Garrison plan. It also
will provide for an increase in the
Medical Corps and the Medical Reserve

The enlistment period for the regular

charge Of efficient men into the reserve
