FACTION, NOT HEARINGS
CLASSIFICATION DEMAND
Joint Conference Holds Subject Has
Been Fully Discussed-Chair-
man Gives Views.

If the wishes of the joint conference
on reclassification are consulted.
there will be no further hearings on
the subject.
The conference today began a drive
to eliminate all hearings proposed
before congressional committees upon
the subject of reclassification. holding
that enough hearings already have
been held.
jeremiah Connolly. chairman Of the
conference opposed the holding of
more hearings at a meeting OF the
organization last night. and was
backed up by the sentiment of the
meeting.
What we need is action. not more
hearings" Chairman Connolly de-
clared today. There have been plen-
ty of hearings on reclaSSificatiOn.
every body in the service who desired
to be heard having been given ample
opportunity.
II see no reason for thrashing the
matter over further" he continued.
Every hearing sch heduled means but
that more delay in the securing of
proper reclaSsification legislation.
The great need is for some kind of
legislation.
Let Congress go to work on that
theory. and not bother with more
hearings" concluded Chairman Con-
molly. -

|B|GGERARMYURGED
|BY CHAIRMAN KAHN
Head of House Committee to
Move Increase to 175,-
600 Men.

Chairman Kahn of the military af-
fairs committee told the House today
that an enlisted force of 16s,O00 men,
as fixed by the Army appropriation
bill. was too small and that at the
proper time he would offer an amend
ment increasing the number to $4,000.
Il am not an alarmist, l am not
afraid of war. but We all know that
world conditions are .unSettled.' he
declared. And. in the interest of true
economy. in the interest of the well
fare OF the country. l shall appeal to
the membership of this House to sup
port such an amendment"
Compares With Other Nations.
Citing the fact that Japan and
China both had much larger armies
than this country. the California rep
resentatiye said that in proportion to
population only Colombia and Paraguay
had smaller armies than the United
States.
thousands of our fellow citizens
believe said Mr.. Kahn. that this
country. by its action in the way of
reducing it's Army, can bring about
international disarmament without
any difficulty. Some months have
elapsed since we reduced our forces
] have seen no indication anywhere
that any other nation in the world is
making efforts to follow our footsteps.
Therefore. l consider it the part Of
wisdom. at least for the present, to
maintain a force the minimum Of
which will be 175.0O0 enlisted men,
answering the demand for reduc
tion of government expenses. Mr..
Kahn declared the Secretary of War
could be trusted absolutely to cut
expenses wherever possible without
injury to the military establishment.
Discusses "Palpable Facts"
1T seems to me the facts are so
palpable that no one at this time
ought to want to cripple our military
establishment" Mr. Kahn declared.
We have grave international ques-
tions which our State Department is
trying to solve. We hope they will
be solved with honor and credit to
our government. During the pen
dency of these matters and in their
solution no individual can foretell
what is going to happen. for one
believe we can afford to be prepared
for any possible emergency. and
think the American people will ap-
prove the increase in our enlisted
force.
Not single country in Europe has
as small an army in proportion to
population as the United States" con-
tinued Mr. Kahn. Japan and China
in Asia both have infinitely larger
armies than this country at present"

SUPPORT Of CANAL
BY THE NAW.URGED
Merchants Association Com
mittee to Present Appeal
to Secretary DENLY.

President King of the Merchants
and Manufacturers Association today
will name a committee from that
body to present to Secretary of the
Navy DENLY resolutions urging the
Navy's support for the Chesapeake
and Ohio canal. The resolutions were
adopted unanimously by the board of
governors of the association at Il
meeting yesterday afternoon. which
was addressed by Representative
Frederick n. Zihlman of Maryland.
The committee Is authorized to
make an exhaustive survey of the
commercial potentia1ities of the canal
tons jobbinS trade westward over
the waterway. 1t will arrange for a
boosters trip to Cumberland, where
d conference will be held with mem
bcrs of the chamber of commerce of
that city for the purpose Of bringing
Washington and Cumberland into
closer commercial relations.
Secretary DENLY. who is out Of the
city. is not expected to reach a de
cision as to whether the Navy will
continue coal shipments over the canal
to Indian Head. until the latter part
of next week: The Merchants and
Manufacturers Association today re-
quested that no action be taken by
the Secretary until it has had an op-
portunity to present WaShington's s
interest in the matter.
Representative Zihlman told the board
Of governors Yesterday that the canal rep
rcsentS an original investment of some
thing like $11, 100000. OF this amount
$1,000, 900 was subscribed by the federal
government. $1,000. 900 each by the states
of Maryland and Virginia, $500. 900 by the
city of Washington and s.50.O00 each
by the cities of Georgetown and Alex
andria. He also referred to the fact
that during the war the government
recognized the military value of the
canal and spent something like $4,000
to keep it in operation, in addition to
Investing about $4,000 in new barges.
Would Protect Investment.
Mr.. Zihlman said he thought this in
Testment should be protected and that
the canal should be kept open and de-
reloped as carrier, not only to serve
peace needs. but for military reasons as
well. He said if the waterway should
De closed the Navy would lose the benefit
of competitive bidding as between rail
and water carriers for future Indian
Head contracts.
I 1t was stated also by the Maryland
that the canal interests
had offered to deliver coal at Indian
Head as cheap as the government could
get it from any other source and that
the Navy would save nothing by buying
elsewhere. -.
Gen. Anton Stephan. member of the
board, said he observed the value Of in
land waterways in Europe during the
war and that he agreed with Repre-
sentative Zihlman that the G. & o.
canal had served the government !, in
the past and should be preserved as a
means of relieving rail congestion, if for
no other purpose.
Secretary Columbus stated that the
logical direction for Washington's manu-
featuring growth is along the canal. He
expressed the opinion that the committee
to be named has an opportunity to
bring about trade revival over the
canal that will necessitate the use of
ten times the number of boats that now
are employed.

TREAT|ESSLURRED
BY SOVIET ORATOR
Tells Soldiers at SebastopoI
Pacts With Foreign Coun-
tries Mean Nothing.
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

BY Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
Copyright. 1921.
CONSTANTINOPLE. Turkey. April
29.-From a speech made by Bokow-
sky Bucharine to the soldiers of the
Sebastopol garrison. in which the said
that all treaties with foreign coun-
tries were meaningless and that the
red army would soon be called upon
to fight the capitalist count ries it is
evident that the SovietS do not be-
lieve in treaties. This is better
illustrated in the dealings of the
Russians with the nationalistS. Ac-
cording to reliable reports coming
here. the bolsheviSt representative in
Angora intimated to the nationalist
government soon after the return of
Bekir Sami from Europe that it was
necessary for the latter to proceed to
Moscow to fix the relations between
the soviet government and the ma
tionalists on A new basis. though the
latest treaty was hardly a month old
The Angora government replied that
the present Turkish representative In
Moscow. Ali Fuad. was empowered to
sign the notifications if any were
necessary. and that the presence of
Bekir Sami. the foreign minister, was
highly necessary in Angora. On April
is, the Angora authorities received a
note from NJ. Tchitcherin. the Russian
loTeIS IL out tndt
the last Greek offensive ought to have
proved sufficiently to the Turks that
the allies did not intend to remain
strictly neutral in the conflict, and for
this reason it was advisable for the
nationalist government to permit
soviet troops to enter Anatolia and
help fight the enemy, in exchange for
which the nationalistS must consent
to modify the treaty of March II and
give the soviet important economic
concessions and advantages in
Anatolia.
Mukhtar Bey, undersecretary of state,
submitted the note to the grand assem-
bly,, stating the question required the
most careful study before a reply could
alists want to gain time to see whether
the expected Greek offensive will de-
velop and whether they are sufficiently
strong to check it without outside help.
Would Fight Greeks Alone.
From conversation with Turks in
close touch with Angora the writer
gathers that the nationalists want 10
fight the Greeks alone and are most
anxious to avoid the presence Of Rus
sian troops on Turkish territory.
Angora does not believe that the
Greeks are capable of serious effort
and are inclined to think that if the
heralded Greek offensive does take
place it will not be harmful. but will be
mainly intended to restore Greek pres
tige after the recent defeat at ESkish-
chr. The .nationalists believe that the
Greeks are anxious to have the allies
arbitrate after the first slight success.
The Turks consequently are playing a
wait and see game with the Russia ms,
as they do not want to nut themselves
entirely at the mercy of the RuSsi2 ms
unless they are compelled to do SO by
the intranSigent attitude of the allies.
