FRENCH GUNS FOR
 U. s. ARTILLERYMEN
American Gunncrs Will Get Actual Practice With 75 Millimeter
 Guns From Now On.

Washington, Jan. 19.-(By Associ- ated Press. )-Training of regular army troops with American modelled 75 millimeter guns will be discontin- ued and training with the French 75's will be extended to artillery units of the regular establishment the Ma tional Guard and officers of the or ganized reserves Orders already have been issued by the chief of field artillery, it was learned today, d- recting organizations in the regular army equipped with the American models to turn them in for the French type replacements.
 It is the policy of the field artillery chief to equip all field artillery bri- gades stationed in the United States with the French guns. They have been accepted as the standard light gun for the regular army and the National Guard, and in time of na- tional emergency would be issued to the organized reserves.
 "The American 75 millimeter gum" says an official communication issued by the office of chief field artillery. is an experimental split trail gun with which several regiments have heretofore been equipped. The short age of field artillery troops makes it madvlsable to continue further ex- perimental work with this gun"

GOVT. WAREHOUSES;
 ARE BEING USED
Movement Has Received Great
 Impetus During Year

Washington, Jan. 19.-Figures showing the growth in federal bonded warehouses for storing of agricultural products have been compiled by the department of agriculture for the in formation of delegates to the national agricultural conference which meets here next Monday. Federal ware housing is expected to be considered by the conference in connection with it's study of marketing.
 The figures as compiled and made public today show that under the fed eral warehouse act, one of the laws recently put on the statute books, the department has licensed PIT cotton warehouses, with a capacity of 1,200, 900 bales, 276 grain warehouses with capacity of about 14,000,000 bush- els Is wool warehouses with ca pacity of about one-seventh of the annual wool clip of the country and five tobacco warehouses.
 Declaring the movement has re- ceived great impetus in the past year, officials said that an applica- tion was pending from big cotton
  with a capacity of over 100000 bales to come in under the federal act. This was said to be the first one received from the cotton cloth mill section of New England. Others there, how ever, have approached the depart ment for information on requirements of the federal law, it was said.
 Officials of the department believe that absence of federal grades for to- bacco has been responsible for only five tobacco warehouses so far com plying under the federal law. The de- partment is now working on tentative tobacco grades and when this work is completed it is opinion of those doing the work that the tobacco industry will join the cotton, grain and wool interests in seeking benefits of the warehouse act.
