The Senate Military Affairs Com

they hoped.
But on the heels OF this idea came
an announcement from the gun divi-
sion OF the Bureau OF Ordnance that
itE total program calls for the expen-
diture of s., ,Oo0, ,0OO, 900, and that Il has
been necessary to equip sixteen large
plants for the manufacture Of mobile
artillery.
years after the American declaration
OF war 800. .0o0, 900 will have been spent
for artillery cannon. Forty millions
OF this will go to plant construction.
The plants. says the announcement,
are well under way, and a number are
practically complete.
"Forgings are already being pro-
duced and the machining plants are
in excellent state of progress" reads
the statement. 1T was necessary 70

new CAPITAL
ISSUES HELD
DOWN BY U. S.
Business World Co-operates
with Government to Limit
Financial Expenditures.

American business, private, corr
porate and municipal is lining up
patriotically behind the army in
still another way. without with
drawing support from Treasury
loans and without hindering work
on war Industries. the business
world is restricting the use of
capital more stringently even than
in the worst panic times the coun-
try has seen.
Pleased with Results.
Since January IL. the world OF
business has sought official sane
tion for the use OF only little more
than a quarter of a billion dollars
as new capital. The exact total is
$26S, 9.91s.17, and port of that sum
is in the form OF .refunding applica-
tons.
The capital issues committee
appointed by Secretary McAdoo,
though still without legal authority
to compel the business world to. ap-
ply for permits in the use of new
capital issues, yesterday reported

Publicity Helps.
Chairman Paul NJ. Warburg, in
announcing the summary of the
committees work to date, made it
clear that the figures can not ac-
curately represent all the good ac-
complished by the committee. Pub
licity work done by the committee
has resulted in the suppression at
the source of many issues that
would in any but the present war
times meet no obstacles. Again.
the committee has received several
applications and informally advised
applicants to withdraw them. with
out necessitating formal refusals
The total of these applications
would be large. he said.
P. p. ClaXton, commissioner of
education. has promised to work
with the committee in restricting
the use of capital on new school
properties wherever possible. There
is no desire to hamper educational
work, but the committee feels that
school construction that can be
held of until the end of the war
should be postponed.
