DEFINITE STEP IS
 TAKEN BY HOUSE
 ID REDUCE ARMY
Approve Appropriation Suffi- cient for the Maintenance of a Regular Force of
 Only 15,0OO Men

step toward reduction of the regular
 army to 15O,0O0 men was taken today
 when the House approved an appro-
 priation sufficient only for the main
 tenance of a force of that size during
 the fiscal year. beginning July
 The action was taken after attempts
 had failed to amend the army appro-
 priation bill to provide for 175,000 en-
 listed men and to reduce the number of
 officers from i4,o00 to approximately 5000.
 The instant the section of the bill appropriating funds for the pay of en-
 listed men during the coming fiscal
 year was reached. a dozen representa- tives were on their feet clamoring for recognition. Amendments came pour ing voted down except one by Repre- sentative Johnson, republican, author debate that has enlivened many a ses- sion of Congress.
 The net result. however. was sue cess for the efforts of the appropria- tions committee to keep the measure practically intact all amendments be- ing voted down except one by Repres- entative Johnson, republican, author izing the discharge from the army of youths under IS years of age on their application or at the request of their parents or guardians. At the request of Representative Wingo the House voted to grant such lads Honorable dis | charges.
 1 The appropriation bill carries as amendment $72.67S.659 for the pay oi enlisted men during the 12 months l beginning July 1. This amount is suf- ficient for force of 150.0O0. accord 1 ing to Representative Anthony, Kan /! sas, chairman of the appropriations subcommittee which framed the meas ure.
 1 INCREASE VOTED DOWN 1 Representative Greene of Vermont l a republican. member of the military committee, introduced an amendment ! to increase the amount to $S4,S49,s ,sO9 enough he said, for the pay of 175;00t men. It was voted down. 45 to IS. 1 Another amendment which met de- feat was offered by Representative Hastings, democrat, Oklahoma, which would have required the war depart. ] ment to reduce the army to 150. 00t within six months after the passage of the appropriation bill. The amend ment was lost by 65 to 42 vote, op- I ponents of the proposal pointing ou' l that 1t might be impossible for thu war department to reach that minimum even though 1t were to cease enlist tments at once.
 Previous to the discussion of the en listed strength of the army an attemp was made by Representative Jones, dem ocrat, of Texas, to have the apprppr.n 1 ton for the pay of officers during thu
 coming year reduced from S42,00oOo0 t $3c, ,0Oo. GOO. Such cut, lie said. woul'
 necessitate a decrease of approximatel, 5000 in their humber. | Chairman Kahn of the military com
