ARMY POSTS ABANDONED
Sites in West Affected by Pending
Legislation.


Washington, May 3l.-U. N. So
The army posts of the west are to
be abandoned in the event that con-
gress passes legislation embodying
the recommendations Of the war de-
partment, Gen. Peyton G. March an
nounced at his weekly conference
today. A very few of these posts
would be retained. he stated, and
only as hospitals where men in the
service whose physical condition de-
manded high attitudes could be sent.
Celebrating on his recent testi-
mony before the house military af-
fairs committee, Gen. March stated
that II was the plan of the depart
ment to have skeletonized divisions
stationed at those cantonments
which are to be retained and to re-
cruit men from the vicinity of each
camp.
Those skeletonized divisions, he
said, would be filled to war strength
in the event of an emergency by
drawing upon men who will have re-
ceived training under any plan con-
gress may authorize. Drill and man.
euvers would be held in division for
nation at stated intervals, and for
every five divisions there would be
corps commander, aud once a year
there would be corps naneuvers.
The old Hay Chamberlain bill Is
entirely inadequate for the present
needs OF the army, Gen. March
stated This measure provides for
only 175,000 combatant troops, which,
with the other branches. would
bring tho total to only about 23o,-
600. Besides, there are no provisions
for the branches that have been
added since the war such as avia-
tior, tank corps, traffic. etc. Tnci-
dentallv. Con. March stated that the
general staff has added aviation as
the fourth arm Of the military serv-
ice. Heretofore, only three arms,
infantry cavalry and artillery were
recognized

EXTEND SUPERVISION

London, April "a (by maiD IL n
S)-Because OF the world shortage
the danger Of private interests sez-
ing the opportunity to boost prices
and for urgent reasons of domestic
policy, the British government will
continue control over food, coal, gaso-
line, alcoholic liquors. shipping and
railways. Not until a more normal
state is reached will the control be
reaXe1 over the first five casses OF
goods and services. AS regards rail-
ways, they are to be so scrambled
into unified transportation system
that state ownership will be the only
way out.
Food control very likely will con-
tinue throughout 1919, although there
may be further relaxations. The gov
ernment's position is that general
abolition OF controlled prices would
send up food prices at a bound.

arming and arresting all Costa Rican

PEACE CONFERENCE
The Kendrick gazette., 1919-10-17

It seems like bringing up dead
issue to talk about the non-partisan
league in this community as there
are so few members in and around
Kendrick, and the league has so ap-
parently lost most of the little pres
tige it had. However, it must be
good lesson to the discontented
element who joined the league to
read of the manner in which the
Scandinavian-American bank was
wrecked at Fargo, North Dakota.
The condition of this bank is a
sample OF what all Of Townley's
schemes may come to if he is al
lowed to lead his followers to their
own destruction. 1t is the history
Of Townley's business career that
he is a plunger and has little
practical business judgement. We
don't believe it is worth SIG in cold
cash to follow such a visionary,
erratic individual as Townley, and
it is safe bet there are those who
have sixteen dollars less than they
ought to have, who are beginning
to think the same thing.
