be included IN the purchased sites.
Il is not improbable that eVentu-
ally Camp Gordon Will be made head
quarters for the southeastern divl-
sion. Senator Hoke Smith expects
this to be the outcome of pending
plans.
Camp Han ,Or'l, at Augusta, has d
2ood chance OF retention, and the
small arms school at Columbus is
scheduled to be made permanent. 1t
is indicated hat all tent camps will
be abandoned and this would mean
the breaking UP of Camp Wheeler.

bia, 5. c., is being boosted as n
permanent camp. but the depart
ment's policy regarding it has not
been announced. OF all the south
eastern camps, Gordon is regarded
as first in line for permanent use.
Purchase of sites will depend upon
the action Of congress. Secretary
Baker went before the house com
mittce on military affairs in eXecu-
tive session this afternoon to dis
cuss the army appropriation bill. Be
fore leaving for the capitol, how
ever, he said he would ask for about
$10,000,000 for camp sites, and the
sites selected would depend largely
upon the amount OF money allowed
by congress.

Secretary Baker to Ask Con-

, With Which to Buy Sites
Throughout Country

Secretary Baker will ask congress
TO appropriate approximately $40
100000 for the purchase of perman-
ent armw camp sites throughout the
United States, and indications are
that Camp Gordon undoubtedly will
be among the list. Whether or not
authority is given to expend large
sums for purchase of sites, it is gen
orally understood in Washington the
Atlanta camp will be maintained for
some time by the war department.
The secretary of war denied re-
ports that ne would ask $5O,O0O,OO0
or 100000 for camp sites. He
Also said it was impossible to destg-
nate at this sine the camp sites TO
be purchased outright. Much will de-

Mr.. Baker believes that S10,000,00U

Camp Gordon is practically certain
to be made a permanent camp, and

tory that after the great transcontinen-

left in the region where these bones
were unearthed, and In them these an
finals frequently became mired. Both
Ulster and Orange counties have been
prolific in mastodon remains. The
Warren mastodon, dug up near New
