AMERICAS HUGE
WAR PROGRAM
ARMY OF 100000 MEN BY JULY
NEXT is AIM-YoUNcER REsIs-
TRANTs TO BE SELECTED.
Half of 100000 to Be Called to coIors
Seven Billions Needed, Says Gen.
March-Drafts May Be Assigned to
Navy and Marines.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
WashingtOn.-An army of 100000
by next July after all deductions have
been made for casualties and rejec-
tions, Is what the enlarged military
program calls for. General March eX-
planned this to the House Appropria-
tions Committee in discussing the new
81, 0O0,00OO00 army estimates. There
are now about 100000 men under
arms, General March said, and the
plan is to call 100000 of the new
draft registrants to the cOlors between
now and July. General March said
that cash appropriations for the whole
$7,OO0,0000O0 would be necessary, as
practically all of the additional money
would be expended in the next year.
Chairman Sherley, emphasizing the
need of economy in cash appropria-
tons, said Congress would doubtless
appropriate all money needed, but
pointed out that the new appropria-
tions almost equal the amount to be
raised by the pending war revenue bill.
Provost Marshal Crowder explained
the need of $23,317,O00 for classifica-
ton and other work due to extension
of the draft. General CrOwder esti-
mated that half of the 100000 men
to be called in the next year will be
obtained from registrants of 10 to 20
years and 81 to SO years. General
Crowder informed the committee re-
garding the monthly call of men into
the army, but the quotas were with
held from the record for military rea-
sons. The bill, which will bring the
total asked for the army in the fiscal
year 1919 to more than $24,000,000,-
600, probably will be reported by the
full Appropriations Committee within
ten days or two weeks, according to
Chairman Shirley. Provost Marshal
General Crowder announced orders to
local draft boards which will permit
the voluntary induction of draft regis
trants into the navy and marine corps
and provide for drafts of men to be
assigned to those services if volun-
tary inductions do not suffice to fill
the demands.
