ing Enables Daniels to
Award New Contracts.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-Congress
was asked by Sec. Daniels Tuesday
for s230,977,152 to further expand the
navy's great building program, provide
for more ordnance and ammunition,
cover additional pay for an expansion
of the marine corps from 10000 to
$4,000 men and meet other expenses
not contemplated in this years naval
appropriation bill.
OF the total s100,0Oo,000 is for addi-
tional construction and to speed up
construction now under way. Mr.. Dan
iels said most of this amount would be
spent for vessels smaller than cruis-
ers," and explained that the unparal-
leled rapidity with which some yards
were turning out destroyers made it
possible to place more contracts for
the boats than had bee thought pos
sible. About a dozen new contracts
already have been placed, half of the
number going to the Mare Island Navy
Yard, which recently launched a de-
stroyer sc per cent complete four

Revised Order Does Not
Permit Soldies to Be
Given Liquor in Homes

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21-The army
regulations forbidding the sale or gift
of intoxicating liquor to officers or
men in uniform was not modified, ac-
cording to Secretary of War Baker. by
the recent order of Maj. Gen. John
Biddle, acting chief of staff, except to
the extent that persons living within
prohibited areas are permitted to
serve liquor to members of their fami-
lies, relatives and bona fide guests in
their own homes-except men in uni
form
Gen. Biddle's order could not change
the prohibition against the sale or gift
of liquor to men in uniform" Secre-
tary of War Baker said, THAT is
statutory. The plain meaning OF the
law is to keep liquor away from the
uniformed forces.
The only purpose of Gen. Biddle's
order was to restore to persons living
within prohibited areas the right to
serve liquor in their own homes to
bona fide guests, If they so desire.
"Only to this extent was the orig
inal order modified If Gen. Biddle's
order Is construed as meaning that
liquor may be served in private homes
to soldiers immediate steps will be
taken to correct that impression. If it
is abused, effective steps will be taken
to stop the abuses"
Mr.. Baker, intimated strongly that
if Gen. Biddle's order is abused by
persons living within dry areas In
the vicinity Of army training camps.
it promptly will be rescinded.
Under the original order the sale OF
liquor to officers and enlisted men in
uniform was prohibited only outside
of the dry zones, and bootleggers and
INSCRIPTIONS liquor dealers were en-
abled to evade the law without vio-
lating it technically.
