Says Browning Gun
Meets Wars Test
Washington

Washington. The American
Browning machine gun is making
good under battle conditions in
France, says Brigadier General Sam
uel McRoberts. head of the PROCURE
ment Division of the Ordnance De-
partment, who spent two months in
France and England and has returned.
General McRoberts said that thus
far the Browning gun has success
fully met the various tests imposed
upon il over there. and that the Brit
ish and French governments have
asked that any surplus number pro-
duced be made available for the Brit
ish and French armies
The United States model 1917 rifle
(moditied Enfeld), General McRoberts
said. has won the hearty endorse
ment of the soldiers who have tried
it out in battle. 1t is proving TO be
an all round. practical weapon for ac-
tual lighting, and the soldiers are en-
thusiastic over its performance
Captured German guns and other
munitions show no notable improve
ments and no particular superiority
over those of the Allies. he said.
The needs for ordnance material in
the future, General McRoberts inti-
mated, will be tremendous.
