Gen. Charles G. Dawes of Chicago,
former chief of supply procurement
for the American army In France,
made lively and interesting two ses-
sions of the house war investigating
committee. Severely condemning
what he characterized as political at
tempts to discredit the people who
won the war, he defended the work of
his department and of the army in
general, and denied that tnere was
waste and extravaganza in the liqui-
dation of American accounts in France
and the sale Of surplus stocks to the
French government. As to the al
legged payment of excessive prices for
equipment and material, he said this
was necessary to get the job done
quickly and was justified by the fact
that TIE army did the Job. General
Dawes did not mince his language.
and what he had to say of our pink
tea" diplomats in Europe who delayed
matters with their red tape was tonic
in it's harshness. The discussion at
one time turned on Great Britain. and
the general shouted:
ST am no more ashamed to stand up
here for Great Britain than for the
United States. 1T seems to be fashion
able In American politics to attack

hard knocks last week. In the first
place the senate naval affairs commit
zee put the snuffer on the Borah res
olution for a naval construction holt
day, after hearing Admiral Coontz,
chief of naval operations, and Adj
miral Taylor chief constructor
of the navy. Both opposed the
plan for a cessation of naval con-
it would cost as much to do this as to
continue to build. as contractors
would be able to collect large dam
age claims from the government.
Furthermore, they see no need for an
investigation as to what constitutes a
modern navy, being convinced by In
vestigations already made that the
capital ship is not obsolete and that
the present program of the United
States is correct.
General Pershing appeared before
the house naval committee and gave
a warning against unpreparedness
and pacifism. He expressed approval
Of a world conference on disarma-
ment, but said the United States
should proceed with its present army
and navy programs until at least five
great powers have entered into a
definite agreement
On the other hand, the house for
eign affairs committee reported ia
vorably resolution authorizing the
President to invite the nations of the
world to send delegates to confer
eace to provide for disarmament.

In the house, the fight to prevent
reduction of the regular army below
$4,000, was opened by Chairman
Kahn of the military affairs commit
tee. He said President-elect Harding
told him recently at Marion that he
favored an army of 10000 men, but
thar he hoped some day it could be
cut down to 10000. Mr.. Kahn also
disclosed Mr. Harding's belief that
congress should enact legislation pro.
viding voluntary military training for
10000 men annually.
Meanwhile economy of the most
rigid sort is being forced on our reg
ular army by great deficiencies in
funds for the remainder of the fiscal
year. The shortage in the quarter
master corps alone is said to be $94,-
100000. In order to reduce the pro-
spective deficits to the lowest posi-
BILE minimum, the War department or
dered reduction of 40 to 60 per cent in
the number of civilian employees in
the army; reduction Of the consump-
ton of gasoline and lubricants by 5O
per cent; allowance of clothing, equi-
page and supplies cut to the lowest pos
sible limit, repaired shoes and sal
vaged uniforms to be issued wher-
ever possible; substitution of canned
food for fresh wherever possible, and
expenses for transportation, commu-
nication and fuel cut to the bone
Much of the vocational training, upon
which the recruiting campaign was
based. must now be abandoned, as all
the teaching will have to be done by
army officers.

START CAMPAIGN !
IN LARGE CITIES
DETROIT AND LANSING SEEK
FUNDS FOR ENDOWMENT
OF COLLEGE.

Arrangements are going rapidly
forward for the Alma College en-
dowment campaign in Detroit, and al
so in Lansing, and hopes are being
held that the quotas in both of these
large cities will be met. In Detroit
the friends of Alma College are seek
ing a quota Of S225,O0O and in Lam

campaigns in both cities start on

Phelpl Newbcrry is the chairman
of the campaign in the city of De-
troit Mr.. Newberry has given the
campaign in Detroit his personal at
tention for some little time and has
his workers all ready to start the
drive on Friday. Each Presbyterian
church in Detroit has been thorough

committees from each one of the
Presbyterian churches of that city
there is another special committee
composed entirely of former stu
dents Of the college, who now reside
in Michigan's metropolis.
In Lansing, Mr.. Arbaugh, head of
the Arbaugh stores, is the chairman
of the campaign. He also has a fine
list of workers, and it is expected
that some fine results will be
achieved in the Capitol City.
The expectations are that the cam
paign in the state will be done by
June Is, commencement day at Alma
College, but as many friends of the
college in various parts Of the state
were away, when the campaigns were
waged in their home cities, some COM
munities have kept their committees
together, with the expectation Of So

Friday morning, j. f. Koons, a
former sheriff Of Isabella county,
who now resides in Lansing, was
called to the stand. Koons had done
considerable work on the case in
looking various. matters for the Of
ficials, following the arrest of Oscar
Collins, spending about five days on
the case.
Rooms told of having interviewed
Collins about February Is, in the
presence of O. l.. Smith and Sheriff
Willert. The story thae Collins told
at that time of his movements on
the night of the murder was substan-
italy the same as that which Collins
had previously told the night follow
ing the murder to officers and news
paper men, investigating the crime.
He also gave the same explanation
for tn scratches on his face.
Koons also stated that he had gone

would weigh about twenty pounds,
and that it had small hands and small

to Eichenberg's store for the peck Of
potatoes as o'clock Saturday even

Koons and the officers about 7:l5.
He also failed to remember the route
by which he went to the Collins farm
earlier in the day, but stated that he
returned over the same route as that
which he had previously told the of
ficers. He said that when he ques-
toned Collins as to the difference in
the time that he had fixed as the
time that he went OF the store to
purchase potatoes, that his wife had
told him to change il.
