OVERSEAS OFFICERS ENDORSE MANDATORY
 MILITARY TRAINING
Support Proposed Policy for Armed Forces in All Lead ing Features - Recon mend Longer Schooling
[RspubIIean 4. ?. Leassd wIrsl


 WASHINGTON. Aug. 14-The sen ate military affairs committee in its consideration of permanent military policy for the nation heard today the first representative of the A. F. F. in Lieut.. Gen. Robert L. Bullard, who commanded the second army, and Maj. Gen. James ". MeAndrews, who for merly was chief of staff overseas.
 Both officers, although expressing some disagreement. endorsed the lead- ing features of tie war departments s army re- organization bill providing for three months of military training for all 19-year -old youths and for q peace time army of .000 men. Their tes- timony was regarded as in some degree reflecting the views of Gen. Pershing and q majority of the other officers in France.
 While Gen. Bnllard was inclined to give a blanket endorsement of the bill, Gen. McAndrews frankly indicated to the committee that there was not complete agreement between the views of the general staff in Washington and army officers abroad regarding fu- ture military policy.
 General McAndrews told the commit tee that in his opinion. military peace sf-eoofh of 300. .Q0n officers and men is sufficient under the plan for universal gn.iItary training. In view of the fact, however, that the universal military service plan could not begin function ing for two or three years hence. he said larger army might be required 10 afford protection during that time.
 General AIcAndrews also said that three months training as proposed in the bill was insufficient to turn out a valuable soldier and asserted that con- trary to general belief the average training time of soldiers composing the American combat divisions abroad had been not less than six months. Gen eral Bullard told the committee that in his opinion three months was the minimum training period and that even then three experienced soldiers would be required to train one experienced man.
 Attention was called by Chairman Wadsworth te the estimate by General March that the war department plan would cost $900.0000 900 annually of which about $500, 100000 of that amount would be required for the maintenance of a standing army. Gen. eral McAndrews replied considerable money could be saved by reducing the size of the standing army and length ening the universal training service period Upon the basis of peace army of 300, 900 officers and men, Senator New. republican of Indiana, told the committee that about s441 000, 900 would be saved if General McAndrews S proposal was adopted.

 WASHINGTON. Aug. 14.-Indica- tions of the real punch behind the gov- ernment's campaign to reduce the high cost of living were given today in un- mistakable fashion in many cities.
 While Attorney General Palmer was telling the senate agricultural commit tee that he intended to prosecute every dealer guilty of selling at higher prices than those listed by the fair-price committees of each county, word came from Chicago, St. Louis and Birming- ham of seizures of great quantities of foodstuffs by federal officials. who re- gently were instructed to proceed under the food control act to stop hoarding. In Chicago, ,2S2 tubs of butter. worth $50, 900, were seized; in St Louis. 2S4,- 1S0 pounds of coffee, which has been showing rapid advances in price. and in Birmingham 100 barrels of sugar
 AIr Palmer told the senate commit tee that he believed the great majority of farmers and food dealers were not profiteering, but that the suggested amendment to the food control act ex- tending it to clothing and providing a criminal penalty of $5.000 fine or two years Imprisonment or both, was nec- essary to make effective the campaign against those who are dishonesty gouging the public. There was a di- vision of opinion among the senators as to the advisability of the legisla- tion. several declaring that the amend ment gave the department of justice too drastic powers over commerce, while others questioned the cQnstitn= tionaIity of extending the life of the food control act beyond the deciara- tion of peace, as has been suggested.
 Given this penalty, we can break the backbone of this profiteering in 60 days" Mir. Palmer retorted crisply, @and then you won't have to worry about constitutionality.
