NUMBER OF TROOPS
WAS NOT DISCLOSED
Secretary Baker and Sena-
tor Weeks Agreed That 1t
Was Improper to Disclose
the Number

Washington, D. c., Feb. 6.-The cross
examination of Secretary of War Baker
on his recent statement before the Sen
ate military committee was begun at
public hearing before the committee to-
day. Answering questions by Senator
Weeks, Secretary Baker said that more
troops had been transported to France
by Jan. l, including both non -combatants
and fighting forces, than had been
planned.
Secretary Baker and Senator Weeks
agreed that it was improper to disclose
the number of American troops now IN
France.
Senator Weeks asked if it were true
that the war department had 79l,Ooo
tons of shipping available for transport
ing troops on Feb. |. Baker said he did
not know, but thought that was under
the estimate.
In his former statement that 100000
men more probably could be sent to
France this year, Secretary Baker eX-
planned that he did not depend wholly
on American shipping in the csleula-
tions.
Baker said he had not determined that
troops would be kept in southern camps
next summer If the summer weather
was extreme, some would be moved, he
said
American tonnage losses have been
exceedingly light. He gave the. oplln-
ion that new legislation would be de-
sirable to give the president general
powers to transfer and coordinate the
functions of the various departments
as conditions arise.

sailors do not have to pay real or
personal taxes until a year after the
aclose of the war, stated Attorney
