that they approximate that figure. He
has let it be known that by Aug. 1
there will be 100000 men in khaki.
The calls for the remaining months
of the year are to be heavy.
Some general staff officers of the
United States army are inclined to be-
lieve that after 1000, 600, 900 are in
the ranks there will be no attempt to
increase that force. The men now
within the draft age limits will pro-
vide force that size without drawing
heavily on Glass 2. If the army is
