GEN. WOOD SAYS ARMY
OF $50, 900 is ENOUGH
Tells Senate Committee Universal
Military Training Should Be
Begun Immediately.

Maj Gen. Leonard Wood took fiat
issue with the War Department rec
ommendation for the Army yesterday
before the Senate military committee,
contending that there was no present
justification for maintaining a Reg
ular Army of more than 100000 Off
GERS and men at most, as against the
100000 limit proposed in the War De-
partment's bill.
II can find no reason whatever for
the larger Army recommended in the
War Departments BILL" said Gen.
new responsibilities of which 1 know
nothing"
Universal military training should
be embarked upon Immediately as the
national military policy, he thought
but he favored the system proposed in
the bill introduced by Senator Cham
berlain as opposed to that provided
in the War Department plan.
An efficient Regular Army backed
up by reserve equipment for 100000
men and an officers reserve corps of
$780, 900 men, Gen. Wood said, should
meet all present requirements of the
nation. AS the universal military
training system developed, he added,
the size of the Regular Army prob
ably could be decreased. Control of
the Pacific, he said, was largely "a
naval problem" and there was no rea-
son for increasing overseas garrisonS.

RENT PROFITEERING HERE
is ASSAILED IN SENATE
Mr.. Harrison Says Evidence OBJ
tanned by Committee Shows
People Have Been Victims.

Rent profiteering in the District of
Columbia was assailed in the Senate
yesterday afternoon when the Harri-
son amendment to the general anti
profteering bill passed by the House
was under consideration. The Harri-
son amendment would make profiteers
in rents in the District subject to the
same penalties as profiteers in food
stuffs and other necessaries
Senator Harrison of Mississippi
urged the need of including the rents
provision in the bill. He said there
was no doubt of the right of Con-
gress to enact such legislation for
the District, and that the evidence
obtained by the District committee
on the rent situation showed that
people here have been victims of rent
profiteers.
Senator Phelan of California sug-
gested that it would be a mistake to
enact any legislation which would
tend to prevent the building of new
houses and apartments here which
are so much needed.
Senator Dial of South Carolina
pointed out that the rents situation
is to be dealt with in a separate bill
prepared by the District committee.

Mr.. Thomas Utters Warning
That Boston Conditions May
Be Repeated Here.

The strike of the Boston police was
deplored in the Senate late yesterday
afternoon by Senator Thomas of Col
orado. He predicted that the time
would come, if there is a strike of po-
licemen in Washington. when women
will be unsafe on the streets of the
capital and it's citizens will be shot
down.
ITO me-" said Senator Thomas. this
is the logical consequence of the affil-
iation of the officers of the law with
private organizations of whatever
character. 1t is an inescapable fact
that when the officials of government
assume obligations or enter into
covenants which may contingently
interfere or conflict with the dis
charge of their duty they at once be-
come subject to a double ale, glance,
the fruit of which is inevitable in
this imperfect world. Since the Mas
ter said, centuries ago, that no man
could serve two masters, no man ever
has or ever will successfully do so.
The conflict of interest and of obli-
cations is absolutely irreconcilable.

ROME. August 10 Correspondence
of the Associated Press).-Strikes
which have produced throughout Italy
conditions in some instances approx
mating bolshevism. in others a kind
of socialism and in still others local
lied anarchy, have given Italian po-
litical economists and statesmen new
spurs to study and remedial action.

The organizations throughout Italy
that planned the newest departure in
governmental and economic admins
tration were styled Camera del
Lavoro. A literal translation would
define them as chambers of labor, but
their functions extended so far that
prices were arbitrarily fixed and the
sale of commodities ordered.

the adventure" His stocks were
Communicated by the Camera del La

that organization. In most cases, the

of the factors which determine sell.

tribution of clothing and shoes the
real trouble began. While the cloth
ing establishments did not receive as
much rush as the shoe establish
ments. they were crowded enough
and the scramble for proper sizes and
fittings was veritable catch,as-
catch-can. The attempts of the sales
men and saleswomen of the shops to
serve patrons was a failure. and they
contented themselves merely with re-
ceiving the small cash payments that
we're made by the bargain hunters.

As to Meeting the Situation

Il want to say to the people of the
Capital city of the United States that
if the Boston condition is to be du-
2ifcated here, and that is what this
decision contemplates, sooner or later
they will be confronted with the
same consequences. The time will
inevitably come when, as in Boston.
the women of this city will be unsafe
upon the streets of the American
capital, when it's stores will be looted,
when it's citizens will be shot down,
and when the middle class citizen
will have to shoulder his gun, take
up the baton of the policeman and
patrol the streets for the protection
of his property and his family and
for the vindication of the law.
1--WE must meet this situation, and
if it be true that it is the logical de-
velopment of conditions which we
cannot suppress or prevent. then we
and our children can at least have
the consolation of knowing that
when the crisis confronted US we did
not finch. brit sou-ht to meet it, and
to meet
