WILL PUT new ARMY
IN SIXTEEN CAMPS
Shortage Of Money, Material,
Labor and Time Causes War
Department to Reduce
Cantonments.

Washington, June 1.-Important
revisions in the plan for training the
war army have been made by the
war department. It announced today
that the half million men to be called
to the eolors in September will be
concentrated in sixteen cantonments
instead of thirty-two, and that many
of the forces probably would be put
into tents instead of wooden bar
racks. >s.
An of the guard units will, have
been drafted. into service by August
s. That does not mean, however,
that all will have been ordered to divi-
sional training camps at that time.
Presumably the best equipped and re.
cruited forces will be made ready first
for duty abroad. but there has been
announcement as to the process to
= be followed.
More than 10000 guardsmen now
are engaged in pcli~e work, guarding
bridges, fa> tories and other struc-
tures, and that work will have to be
kept up. .est ~
Lack Of funds, material. labor and
transportation facilities Secretary
Baker said, were determining influ-
ences in the decision to reduce the
number of cantonments.
Too Great Demand.
The previous plan. to build. thirty
two of the camps was reached, it was
explained, after congress had appro-
priated $77,000,000 on the theory that
there would be only sixteen. For a
time the larger number seemed prac-
ticable, but thar would have made a
much greater demand on the over
taxed resources at the departments
command.
Although the change will upset all
the tentative plans Tor camp locations
made BY department commanders, it
is not expected to delay beyond Sep
tember |, the mobilization of the
great draft army. -Four of the six
teen cantonment sites provided for
under the new plan already have been
selected and choice tof the others is
expected soon Secretary Baker in
dicated that building would proceed
as rapidly as possible.
= +. :. Pour Sites Selected. 4-.,.,..
The four sites selected are at Amer
ican Lake, Wash, Atlanta, Ga, Ayre,
Mass, and Wrightstown, N. J.
A more plentiful supply Of canvas
than expected mad it possible to
put some of the troops under tents.
A canvas shortage was largely re-
sponsible for the original plan to
housetfe army in wooden barracks,
for army officials have preferred tent.
ing from the start Most of the tents
used probably will be placed at
southern camps. 49,,
In making the announcement Secre-
tary Baker said also that forces in
excess OF those which could be cared
for in the sixteen cantonments would
be placed under canvas. This was
taken as referring to national, guard
divisions, although the militia bureau
has received no instructions in this
regard.
Task Big One.
The task ofsbuiiaing "a ~cantonment
is big, one, Miles of roads, water,
sewer and light,constructio1 must be
put in.. More than 2,o00 buildings
must be, erected iE each, camp and
railway connections must be estab-
lished To begin the simultaneous
construction of thTty-two such cities,
officials feel, would have been. more
than theArrsourees of the department
or the country could have borne
without seriously irterrupting the
ordinary course OF commercial life.
