Senate Military Committee Gives APP
prevail to Plan for Huge Army
Would Equip 100000.

Washington, d. C.-Approval has
been voted by the senate military
committee of the provision in the
s12, 900, 900, 900 army appropriation bill
as it passed the house empowering
the president to call to the .colors
all men of draft age who can be
trained and equipped.
Based on an American army OF g.
0OO,OOO men, the plans which the
measure supports have been approx
ed by the interallied war council,
through General Pershing, it was said
by Representative Borland of Mis-
souri,, chairman of the subcopmottee
which framed the bill. While the
program provides for home defenses
from possible German air raids and
for coast defense, the chief concern
is for the production of field artil-
lery. The total appropriation for
heavy guns is s1.229, 1925
The report of the committee shows
that the new government plans for
production of heavy artillery at Ne
vile island, in the Ohio river. near
Krupp plant in Germany. For the
Neville island plant s40,000,000 is ap
propriated. Manufacture of heavy
pieces will be carried on also al
plants of the eBthlehem and Midvale
Steel companies, the report discloses
All of the new heavy guns provid
ed for in the bill will be mounted
on railway cars or motorized for rap
i'd transportation.
The report of the committee shows
General Pershing has been buying
field artillery in large quantities from
French manufacturers.
Spare guns from the American coast
defenses are being shipped abroad
None of the important coast defenses
however have been dismantled. The
navy has supplied the army in France
