REDUCTION IN STRENGTH NE.
cESslTATEs THIRD READ
JusTMENT IN YEAR
Redistribution Of Troops Among Per
manent Posts 10 Delayed by
Camps on Account Of CT
william Training

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. reorganiza
ton plan for the regular army, the
third TO be drafted In the last year
and half as n result OF cuts In
strength ordered by congress has been
completed and the war department in
a recent statement showed just what
had been done with the regular forces
to carry out successive laws.
This completes" the statement
said, "a reduction which has been
virtually continuous for eighteen
months. totallng approximately 100000
men, or 45 per cent Of the actual
strength"
The departments statement said the
plans were now being carried into ef-
feet, but that redistribution Of the
troops in permanent posts. which the
project contemplates, was being de-
layed Gin order not to interfere with
the training Of the civilian compon-
ents OF the army during the summer
camps"
Explaining the difficulties encoun-
tered in planning reorganization to
conform to the enlisted strength OF
125, 900 as fixed in the last approprla-
ton acts. the statement pointed out
that no change had been made in the
missions assigned to the regulars in
the national defense act OF 1920, I'M
der which an authorized strength Of
2S5,000 was declared necessary, in the
judgment OF congress. 10 carry out
the military policy then laid down.
1.-THE total present strength" the
statement said, "is $4,000 less than
authorized by the act which resulted
from the lessons OF the world war and
assigned the missions to the regular
army, and 100000 less than the auth
orized prewar strength, before the
three-part army was created"
The first problem taken up in the
reorganization was apportionment OF
the authorized strength among the
branches OF the service In order to
keep the military machine as well bal.
cialized units which must be retained
as a war precaution. Allotments were
made with the reduction in each arm
from the national defense act strength
also shown as follows: Infantry, from
10000 to 1929 men; cavalry. from
10000 to 9S71 field artillery, $1,000 to
17,173; coast artillery, from 10000 to
12.020 engineers, from 10000 to 5000 I.
air service, from 10000 to $500, and
signal corps. from 500 TO 21s4. In
noncombatant branches the quarter
master corps was reduced from 10000
to 5000; ordnance. from $500 to 2307 /,
finance. 900 to 800; chemical warfare.
1900 to 445; medical. $4,000 to $3.50
Under the reduction plan there re
main available for use in continental
United States, 96,723 enlisted men "foI
the performance OF the many duties
assigned under the national defense
act" This number includes about
1000 men still in Germany.
