HOUSE OPPOSES
 SHIPPING BOARD
 0PR|AT.|0NS
Chairman. Good Of Com mittee Says Not One Cent
 Will Be Given To Board.

WASHINGTON, Dec 3O.--In open ing house debate on the sundry civil appropriation bill. Chairman Good of the appropriations committee. today served notice that if he could prevent it, not single penny" would be ap- propriated for the shipping board. He added that his committee felt that 'itS had to get behind the shipping board and compel it to sell its plant and equipment"
 House leaders took up the big ap- propriation bill with the avowed pur- pose of disposing of it as soon as pos sible to make way for other import ant supply measures to run the gov ernment through the fiscal year of 1922. The bill contains more than 1000 items and calls for an aggregate appropriation of S3,611 292 General debate on the measure will be con cluded tomorrow and it's considera- ton. item by item, will begin next week
 Chairman Good in the course Of to- days discussion assailedl the provis- ion. which had been rejected by his committee 10 give the shipping board $147 100000 for the support of the Emergency Fleet Corporation
 Good Plays Board
 We are not going to appropriate, if I can prevent it." he said, "a sin gle penny for the board that does not know it's business. that is wasting the peoples money. and if it is going to get any money it must get it out of the salvage of its plants
 The chairman also attacked the war department for spending more money than congress had apDropriat- ed in recruiting the army. He said he personally was in favor of limit ing the army to 150.000 men and make them learn to work"
 The committee chairan however. in urging economy, said that the sal aries of many government officials and employees were too low and de- clared that congress cust soon pay some attention to the salary question because the low salary scale is hav- ing a demoraliZing effect on govern cent service"
 Will Care For Veterans
 Comcenting on the care and train ing of disabled war veterans. Good said that both the war risk insurance bureau and federal board of vocation al education would have uneXpended balances at the end of the current fls- cal year and that with these amounts available. toge ther with appropria- tions carried in the bill the war FISK insurance bureau would have approx, imately $f6O. 100000 and the board for vocational education S75.50O,OO0 during the coming fiscal year-ap- proxicately the accounts, he said, the! had estimated they would need.
 Congress will take care of the d1s abled soldiers" Good declared:
 Good pleaded for passage or the bill as presented by the committee declaring it was necessary to act on if without regard to personal consiu- erations.

Monk" Eastman, War Hero-Gangster, Murdered Last Week In New York, Is
 Buried With Full Military Honors

NEW YORK Dec 30.-Thousands of men and women in various walks of life paid homage to Monk" East man, murdered gangster-soldier at his funeral in Brooklyn today.
 Remindful that his record as lead CT in the East Sides gang conflicts had in part been cleansed by his he roic behavior in the world war, the silent throngs gathered about an un- dertaker's chapel where his body lay and listened to recitals of the best in his life. Eastman's citizenship, forfeited by his conviction Of crime years ago. was restored by Governor Smith upon his return from France.
 The funeral rites were simple. His soldiercomrades of the 21th division were there to honor him as one re generated" in the war They escort ed the body to the cemetery to the sound of untitled drums. where last honors were paiR by firing squad at the grave and bugler's notes of taps"

Senate Irreconcilables Confident OF Rejection
 OF Versailles Couenant
Former Secretary Of State Declares PresidenElect Will Not Use Present League As Foundation For Proposed
 Association Of Nations; Cabinet Is Discussed

MARION. Ohio. Dec. 30.-The sen ate irreconcilables had their big in- ming today in President-elect Hard ing's meeting of minds" and their spokesman went away from Marion declaring unbounded confidence that no foundation timbers for the new association of nations would be taken from the covenant of Versailles.
 Senator Knox of Pennsylvania once secretary of state, and throughout the treaty fight leader of the rejection istSS brought to the president-elect the warning of bitter opposition should at- aempt to revive the covenant in any form as a basis for his new peace society.
 '.I am assured" said the Pennsyl- vania senator afterwards, that he has no set idea in mind.''
 Senator Harding's conference with Knox was dovetailed with anoNher of unusual importance in which the president-elect' took up with his rank ing political advisers Harry NJ. Daugherty and Will H. Hays. the pro blem of cabinet appointments. Con- clusions were revealed but there were indications that the two party lead CTS had been summoned to give a fi- nal opinion on two or three of the i'm portant posts in the official family of the next administration. One of the appointments foreshadowed for the future is that of secretary of state, place for which Charles Evans Hughes is understood to be under serious consideration.
 Cabinet Still In Doubt
 A secretary Of the treasury seems likely to be named at the same time and speculation for that position gives greatest prominence 60 the names of Charles G. Daws and John w. Weeks. Most of the other posts will be filled later and those colse to Harding say that nothing like complete cabinet slate has yet been seriously consid- cred.

 The expectations of the western senators seemed to those interested in the measure to be strengthened by the understanding that both Secre- tary Payne and Assistant Secretary Vogelsang of the interior department, to whom the measure was referred for recommendation, had advised fav- orable action.

Bakers Plan For Construction
 Of New Army Posts Giiuen Chilly
 Reception By House Committee
Fifty Million Dollar Item Is Knifed By Representatives Secretary Of War Says New Buildings Necessary To
 Garry Out Military Reorganization Scheme

WASHINGTON, Dec. 90. - A S5O,OOO.OOO item for army post permanent construction submit ted by the war department and refused by the house apprcpria- tions committee in reporting out the sundry civil supply bill was the initial step in a new army housing project contemplating expenditure of more than s3OO,- 000000 over a period of 10 or 12 years. Details of the scheme formulated by the general staff. are revealed in testimony taken by the committee and made pub lie today.
 In urging congressional approv-
 of the plan. Secretary Baker recommendedfthat many existing army posts, particularly those near large cities, be abandoned and sold, the funds to be used in financing the new project. He did not. however. submit any list of posts which might be so dis posed of. Baker said the proDos- ed program was simply making a start toward S complete change in the whole theory of our army in line with the army recrganiza- tion.
 Tn existing permanent posts and forts. Secretary Baker sold, there were quarters for S0,000 men as against the army strength of 2SO.OO authorized At present, he added, the troops were housed
Bisbee daily review., 1920-12-31

in perishable and perishing structures at the war time camps which could not last more than a year or two longer.
 Explaining the committees ac- tion to the house today, Repre- sentative Good. Iowa. chairman, said the project was an example of ambitious and unwise" schemes proposed by government executives involving eXpendit- ure of hundreds of millions. He said general staff officers at the hearings had told Secretary Bak- CT. who did not know. that the cost of the project would reach seven CT eight hundred millions.
 "The country is not in a condi- ton to authorize such eXpendit- ures," Good said. and the con- mittee disallowed the request for money for any such purpose at the present time"
 In justification of the new plan, Secretary Baker, in his testimony before the committee said:
 We know now from this war that suite independently of its size, the army would be relative ly a useless army if it were kept in outlying posts under condi- tions which obtained prior to our going into the world war. II we are going to have an effective army at all, it must be aSgregat- ed into very much larger units and all training coordinated be- tween the various arms.

the western states are particularly desirous of having the bill signed be- fore tomorrow midnight for at that time the six months period during which miners must do annual assess; ment work to the value of $1O0 on their claim expires.

 President has not yet signed bill extending time for assessment work on mining claims, but he surely Will. Notices of intention to hold claims will not be required.
