Secretary Tells Members
Sites Could be Sold to
Nearby Cities.

A building project contemplating
the expenditure of $3.50, 100000 for
the construction of permanent
buildings In the nine corps areas
brought forth under the Army Re-
organization law has been squelched
In its incipiency by the House APP
propriations Committee. The request
of Newton ID. Baker, Secretary of
War, for s50,0oo.o00 for the fiscal
year of 1922 to begin this vast work
was absolutely refused in the Sun
dry Civil Appropriations Bill now
before Congress-.
The testimony of Secretary Baker
before the committee revealed that
the program anticipated the moving
of a considerable part of the mill
tary establishment from its present
quarters into the proposed new
quarters. The action of the COM
mittee is an exemplihcation of its
avowed policy and the policy of the
Republican leaders to enforce a
holiday" in extravagant expendi-
lures for the military and naval
establishment of the country.
Could Sell Outgrown Posts
IF the Congress adopts this
scheme, IL Congress sets it's ap-
proval upon the policy of the War
Department with regard to this
form of housing for the Army.

lr size, located often near large
cities, which would command very
good prices for the land. and there
is the possibility of some of them
being bought by institutions for
schools" Baker said.
These scattered posts throughout
the country are expensive to main
tain and practically useless in the
matter of training the army. We
can sell and / think II would be
a good thing II Congress approves
this scheme to authorize those posts
to be sold and that money utilized

Baker later observed that he
realized that Immediately this
scheme is approved and these posts

DO you think that the perma-
nent buildings that are under con-
temptation at the nine corps areas
could be constructed within $1,000

chairman of the committee, asked.
The opinion was expressed by the
Secretary that s1,000,000.00O would
be sufficient IL not excessive.

CAPTAIN RETURNS
FROM 4-YEAR TRIP
Brings Back Relic of Inflated
Franklin Expedition
To Arctic.

After spending four winters in
the Arctic. having been frozen in
the ice for more than twenty-four
months. and being unaware that the
war was over until a year after
the armistice, Capt. Joseph Bernard.
skipper of the little gasoline
schooner Teddy Bear, reached Ot-
tawa recently on his way home to
Tignish, P. e. /.
Capt. Bernard's ship was a trader
and his life in the Far North was
his choice of making a livelihood.
He has been located in the North
since 1901, but only in 1903 did he
take to trading in the Canadian
Arctic, hitting the Teddy Bear and
sailing up to the icy desolation Of
Victoria Island, King William Land
and Coronation Gulf. He is now in

Collinson was looking for sur-
vivors Of the Franklin expedition,
which In lS47 set out to discover
the Northwest passage.
The tragic end of that expedition
Is history. The men-I05 in all
abandoned the ship, deserted their
captain and attempted to reach
civilization by way Of the mainland
to the South. Not until twenty
three years later was the story un-
folded. and that was through the
trail of skeletons along the route
the men took. Capt. BERNARD heard
talk of Franklin even last year. The
