SPECIAL MACHINE
GUN BOARD
Tests to Decide Expenditure of
$12,OOO,0O0 to Equip
Forces

Washington, D. c., Oct. IS. = The
question. of adopting the best type of
machine gun for use by the United
States Army is to be thoroughly in
vestigated by a special board to be ap-
pointed by Newton d. Baker, Secre-
tary of War. Secretary Baker has
had this under consideration for sew
eral weeks.
A statement from Secretary Baker
is expected, pointing out the import
ance of the board in the selection of
the best type of machine gun and ex-
planning his desire for q thorough in
vestigation of charges of undue oppo-
sition to certain types. In addition to
officers representing the various
branches of the army, the board will
contain civilian members, whose choice
has been made with the greatest care.
In the recently enacted army ap-
preparation law s12. 100000 was in
cluded for the purchase of machine
guns. Half of this amount is to be
applied to equipping the army and
half to the militia.
British Use the Lewis Gun
The Vickers and the Lewis guns
are in use extensively by the British
army in France. 1t is said that the
Lewis gun is being used in frst-line
work and the Vickers- in the second

line. The popularity of the Lewis
weapon in the British army has been
dem onstrated by the large purchases
that have been made by the British
Government and what they have
heard of the Lewis gun efficiency in
actual hostilities has impressed many
Am merican army officers who are anx-
ious to have it adopted by this coun-
try.
Secretary Baker returned to Wash
ington from st. Louis. Brigadier Gen
eral William Crozier, Chief of Ord
nance of the United States Army, who
was expected here to consult with the
Secretary over charges published re-
Gently that the failure of the War De-
partment to adopt the Lewis machine
gun was due to General Crozier's op-
position, did not come to Washington.
He had been making an inspection of
army coast defenses and arsenals north
of New York.
General Crozier has denied a state
ment made by Colonel Isaac N. Lewis.
the inventor of the Lewis gun, that
Colonel Lewis had offered to supply
the army with his type of weapon as
q gift.
The disparity In the statements of
General Crozier and Colonel Lewis was
cleared by letter from Colonel Lewis.
He said that while he had offered his
gun free of royalty charges to the
War Department through Major Gen
eral Leonard Wood, then Chief of the
General Staff and ex-officio president
of the Board of Ordnance and Fortifi-
cation. he did not make the offer to
General Crozier or his bureau.
No Hope in the Bureau, Said Lewis
Colonel Lewis said he knew from
a somewhat bitter personal experience
of more than thirty years that it would
have been futile and foolish for me
or any other American inventor out
side the bureau itself to offer any
ordnance invention to the Ordnance
Bureau in the hope that it would find

matte Arms Company, of Utica, N. Y.
The expected tests to be conducted
by the special board will bring the
Lewis gun in competition with the
Vtckers machine gun of the 1915
model, which is being used in the
United States Army. This is an inn
provement on the original Vickers.
The board will be left free to recon-
mend more than one type for issue to
the army. The Lewis gun is regarded
by many officers as especially suited
for aeroplane work on account of it's
lightness. This also makes it exc
tremely mobile.
