Knockers Way Off
on Total Outlay
Army Air Service

New York, April 11.-Expenditures
of the United States for the army air
service during the war. often placed
by critics of the service at more than
81, 600, 100000, actually amounted to
net outlay of s59S.090.7S1, it is shown
in letter from Major II. M. Hickam.
chief of the information group in the
air service, to the Aviation and Air
Craft Journal.
The letter, embraced in an article
which that magazine will publish this
week, declares that after two years of
settling claims, adjusting cancelled
contracts and liquidation, the air serv-
let has returned to the United States
treasury $532,564,7S1 of the appropria-
tions made for 1t by Congress.
THE actual amounts appropriated
for the army air service during the
war aggregated $1,6S7,054,75S, the let
ter says.
From this total there were revoked
by Congress sums aggregating $4S7,-
000, 900, making net amount available
for expenditure by the war department
$1,000, O54,75s.
Until now the charge has been
made that the president has been led
to believe that most Of this money
was spent and largely wasted.
THE amount actually expended from
the money appropriated for war de-
partment for the air service In this
country and abroad during the war
was $617,4s9,977. From this has bean
deducted $1s.s9s,1s6 realized By sales
of surplus material"

New York Senator Objects, Be.
cause Measure Appropriates
Only $4,000. 600
From a staff Coyrespondert


ALBANY. April 1l.-Strenuous OBJ
lection to the advancement of the sol
der bonus bill was made tonight by
Senator Martin G. McCue. Democrat,
Of New York, when the measure was
reported out Of the Senate Finance
Committee. Senator McCue based his
objection on the fact that the measure
appropriates only Sl0,000,000 for dis
trloutlon this year among World War
veterans of the state instead Of the
full amount of S45,000.0 900, as voted
upon by the people at the referendum
last fall.
1t was explained by Senator Charles
hewitt, chairman Of the Finance Com
mlttee. that the reason the full amount
mad not been appropriated was because
the State Comptroller had informed
the Legislature that he did not believe
that more than from S7.0O0OO0 to S10,-
600 could be disposed Of this year.
Senator McCue insisted that the
Legislature did not have the right to
make any changes in the amount to be
appropriated for the state soldier
bonus.
the money belongs to the World
War veterans,' he said. ut is theirs
by right and not by charity. 1t is our
duty to give the soldiers what the pco.
pie voted, and they should have it at
once or not at all"
1t tnally was agreed that the bill
should be advanced and that the ma
lorty leaders would entertain amend
mcnts to be submitted by Senator Nc
Cue when the measure comes up for
final passage.
