CONFEREES
COMPROMISE
ON ARMY Of
$4,000 MEN
Represents Reduction Of
5000 From The Senate
Proposal And Increase
Of 10000 Over House

WASHINGTON, June II. - House
and senate conferees on the army
appropriation reached a compromise
late today on an army of 125,o00 en-
listed men for the next IL months.
This represents a reduction OF 5000
from the senate figure and an in
crease of 10000 over the size OF the
army fixed by the house.
The house delegation refused to
accept the senate provision fixing a
maximum authorization of an army
of 100000 enlisted men as well as the
item appropriating pay for $4,000, as
passed by the senate. They were
said to have stood solidiy against
any provision which would have per-
mitted a personnel of moro than
125,000. War department representa-
tives declared repeatedly in hearings
on the bill that to reduce the pres
ent authorized strength of 10000
was to go below the line of safety.
Decision as to the conference report
on the enlisted strength leaves only
two important sections of the annual
supply bill yet to be considered ex-
elusive of the Muscle Shoals amend
ment appropriating $7,500,00 for a
continuation of work on the federal
power project in the Tennessee river.
1t already has been agreed by the
conference committee that that
question should be submitted direct
TO the house because of the contro-
versial character of the subject in
volved. Chairman Wadsworth Of the
senate military committee, said that
only the items dealing with the of
ficer strength and the national guard
provisions remain TO be determined.
1t was expected that a reduction
from the number of officers fixed by
the senate would follow the compro-
mise as to enlisted personnel. The
house fixed a maximum OF 1900 as
the number of officers while the sem
ate amendment put the officer
strength at an average OF 1880 for
the coming year.
