washington, F,

Washington, Feb. 25.-Announce-
ment by General Pershing's chief of
staff that 1S national guard and ma
tional army divisions were scheduled
to sail from France before July l.
apparently confirms reports which
have been current here that the expe-
dictionary forces were to be reduced
to q total strength Of 100000 by the
end of the current fiscal year.
Calculations in the various war de-
partment bureaus, 1t is said, have
been based on the 100000 strength in
figuring on the maintenance Of the
army abroad after July /.
The announcement from France in
dicates that in addition to the seven
regular divisions now in France and
into which presumably men desiring
to remain temporarily are being
transferred, the American forces after
July will include the 29th national
guard and the 18th and 81st national
army division. This would give q nine
division strength, for the combatant
troops and allow one division for en-
ployment as depot unit.
While the statement from Paris
named only 18 divisions all others
now in France except the seven reg
ular and four national guard and ma
tional army divisions already are on
priority for early return or have been
skeletonized and are returning as cas-
nails -
