WOMAN IS PASSED
 ON SENATOR'S WORD
Commissioner Uhl Discloses Conditions At Ellis Island No Record Kept of De- portatiOns.

New York, Nov. 24.--The congress sional inquiry into, the Immigration service here today developed that many incoming passengers in whom congressman were interested were passed with only q perfunctory eX- animation or if they were detained, were released later on appeals sup ported by congressman.
 These admissions were made by Byron Fl. Uhl, acting immigration commissioner, after Representative Box of Texas interrupted his testi- mony to state that an inspector on the steamship Adriatic yesterday had informed him that he had passed woman passenger In whom, United states senator was interested when he ordinarily might have detained her.
 Senator Gets Woman in.
 Commissioner Uhl declared that he often received memoranda concern ing incoming passengers from the fde- partment of labor with the endorse m ent "congressman-in Oc- casionally congressnren appealed to him personally in the cases Of immi- grants or passengers detained for va rious reasons -...-. ,
 @ 70 Anarchists Held.
 Byron H. aIhl, acting imm grafton commissioners, was the first wnonAan. He testified sffat U al ses4 an eliists, including two women were being held al the island under warrants of ar rest and nine others under warrants of deportation. Hearings have been given to 31 of the 70 cases, but Com missione Uhl explained that he not yet has been able to review the findings of the examining board because of the delay in getting transcripts of the testimony resulting from a shortage of stenographers.
 MT. Uhl also repeated what he told the committee informally Saturday that of the 65 aliens, 32 of them al- legged anarchists brought here from Seattle last Spring only seven were deported and the majority of the re- mainder released on bond or parole.
 Ellis Island in Bad Way
 Commissioner Uhl also -old the committee that 1S persons mostly stowaways had escaped from the island since June. He attributed this to the shortage of able bodied watch men stating that he was forced 10 carry a number of old and decrepit watchmen on the payroll because they had no other means of support. In response to a request from the com mittee, MT. Uhl said that he was un- able to furnish a record of the anar- chists deported during the past two years because he had no record of such deportations.

HALF MILLION MEN
 IN ARMY NECESSARY
General March Says This is. Is Minimum Country Should Have 25o,000 MEN NOT ENOUGH
Any Less Than Number Mentioned
 Could Not Properly Protect Nation, Is Opinion Put Forth By Chief of Staff. ,, \ -.

Washington Nov. 24.-The opinion of the army general staff and the ad- ministration is that peace time army of 500, 900 men is the minim um neces- sary to care for the national interest, Gen. March, chief of staff declared today correcting an interpretation of his annual report, published Sunday which placed the minimum at 250 ,0G0. Gen. March emphasized that he never had changed his estimate of 500, 900 as the smallest upon which to rest the military power of the United States.
 March Explains RenQrt.. z. In his report Gers March s3argcun- mended one field army of five corps skeletonized to 50 per cent of it's strength. . Taking four divisions of 26,O00 men to a, corps, ssuch calcula- tion would shov-a .aboA 526, ,0OO mel, which skeletonized to s50 per cent. of strength, .Nould make 260,000 men. Gen. MafEh, however, made it plain today that he was passing his estimate on the army corps as a. practical unit completely organized with all its ele- ments for service. Five corps on that basis would mean an army in excess of 1,O0O,00 men, which, skeletonfzed to 50 per cent. of it's strength, would make the army of 50O,0OO, which the chief of staff recommends. .ft.
