ond section.
BY that time the machinery that had
been built up would provide enough
trained officers and non-commissioned
officers TO train a million or more men
at a time. If that were necessary The
Dill. however, proposes to authorize
now only the first two classes of the
new army. making a total of more than
100000 trained troops, who would be
available. possibly within a year and
a half. or in two years at most

only the cost of building the machine.
It's maintenance in actual war would
double the expense, and as mobilization
OF the necessary reserve supplies must
parallel the development of the army.
$4,000, 100000 probably represents the
total cost for the year for the first
million men.
OF the $4,000. 100000 asked. approx
mately one-half would go for pay and
quartermasters' supplies, including the
cost OF cantonments to house the troops
at the training centers Another half
billion would go into ordnance: nearly
$50 100000 into Signal Corps and aVia-
ton equipment; nearly STAG. 900 to
the engineer equipment and field works :;
S26000,000 to medical stores.
Half Billion for Ordnance.
The estimate submitted includes
also more than half a billion to put the
ordnance equipment on a war basis as
to reserves of guns and ammunition.
Information from Europe shows that
| under the blast of day and night fir
ing the whole artillery equipment of
the armies on the front line must be
renewed every four months. A three
inch gun will last for about 10000
shots. then must be replaced Larger
weapons are shot out" sooner. The
army estimates take these facts into
consideration and realize that much of
the original equipment of the army
Will be used up during training work
and must be replaced when the forces
are to be sent to the front
The pay alone for an army of 1000
600 men and nearly $4,000 officers would
total nearly $500, 900, 900 a year. Field
artillery equipment of 100000 National
Guard troops would cost close to $780,
900. 900 and ammunition for the guns an
equal sum.
The ordnance estimates include ad-
ditional provision for the coast de-
lenses. Presumably the five-year prof.
ect begun last year is to be speeded up.
Some additional minor defenSes prob
ably are planned.
Army officials are hopeful that Con-
gress will accept the plans of its mill
tary advisers virtually without amend
ment. They have no indication. how
ever, of the reception by Congress of
the proposal to apply selectve con-
scriptton almost from the outset. Every
effort has been made to provide in the
expanded regular army and the feder-
allied National Guard for individual
volunteers.
There will be places waiting for every
man who seeks rank as an officer and who
can demonstrate in actual service his right
to leadership But volunteer regiments or
other units, taken into the service as SUCH
are disapproved. A complete, homogene-
Gus army is what is being planned with
lines of distinction between its various
elements completely wiped out to secure
maximum elasticity Of structure General
staff officials believe this is vital TO modern
military efficiency.

the cost of cantonments to house the
