Washington, July q. - After
months of study the General Staff OF
the army has adopted a military pro-
gram within the bounds of the Ma
tional Defense act of 1920, which mill
tary experts believe would success
fully defend continental United
States against any sudden attack,
while making ample provisions for a
general mobilization behind the de-
fense lines.
Because of the sweeping reduction
in the size of the regular army, or
dered by the present Congress, the
General Staff has faced difficult
problem in reorganizing the actual
and potential military forces of the
country for a possible emergency.
The plans so far drawn do not take
into consideration an offensive war,
but are confined, for the time, to in
suring the country against an enemy
assault upon our coasts, until the full
military power Of the nation could be
brought into play.
Gen. John J. Pershing, chief of
staff, has submitted memorandum
to the Secretary of War, stating that
the new policy may be described as
"a national position in readiness" for
war and outlining the measures which
have been worked out for defensive
campaign.
The important phase of the new
system is distribution of the train
ed or semi-trained military forces to
SO cover the coasts and frontiers of

PHILIP c. CRILLY
'DRO v ned At
CUNSTON WHARF
Stricken With H e ar
Trouble After He Start
ed To Swim
BOAT IS CAPSIZED
Body Recovered in Ten Minutes After
Tragedy-Others In Boat Were W.
B. Daingerfield and George Grant.

Philip c. Crilly, twenty eight years
old, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Jeremiah H
Crilly, of 607 Cameron street, was
drowned yesterday afternoon about
$3.50 o'clock at Gunston wharf, about
eighteen miles south of Alexandria,
when small rowboat of which ne
was an occupant was overturned IN
about nine feet of water, when only
ten feet from shore. The place where
the accident occurred is only about
twenty feet wide.
The body was recovered in ten to
fifteen minutes after the drowning
and at once brought ashore and for
more than two hours it was worked
on by DR.. w. T. Davis, Washington
occulist and sergeant from Fort
Hunt. 1t was rolled and everything
known to medical science was restor-
ed to but Mr.. Crilly failed to show
any spark of life.
That he was seized with heart
trouble after he started to swim is
the opinion of those who were with
him. He swan a short distance when
he went down without even making an
outcry and it was several minutes
before his two companions realized
what had happened to him.
Lafayette Blackburn, colored, re-
covered the body. He obtained a large
pole and with the assistance of Will
liam Bathurst Daingerfield dived and
dragged the body of Mr.. Crilly up
by means of his feet.
Messrs. William Bathurst Danger
field, George Grant and Philip Crllly
were all together in small boat and
they had been out bathing and were
coming to shore when the tragedy oc-
Cured. tf.is .....4...
According to Mr.. Daingerfield the
boat was upset in some manner by
Mr. Crilly and all three thrown into
the water which is about nine feet
deep at that point and only about
ten feet from shore. George Grant
was the only one who was unable to
swim. He in some manner padded
about until rescued by Mr.. Danger
field. Immediately after all three
were precipitated into the water Dam
gerfield says he started to swim
about to get his bearing. He realiz-
ed that Mr.. Grant was unable to swim
and he saw Mr. Crilly swimming to-
ward shore. After he gotThold of Mr..
Grant he says he pushed him to-
ward the boat and Instructed him to
cling on and he pushed the boat
ashore and then looked for Mr.. Crilly
and failing to find any trace of him
he called Lafayette Blackburn, col
ored, who was on shore. Blackburn
produced a long pole and got Mr.:
Daingerfield to hold it while he dived
and recovered the body.
The deceased was employed as
travelling salesman for the AleXan-
dria Fertilizer and Chemical Company
with which concern he had been with
for the past four years. Prior to that
time he held similar position with
his father in the wholesale grocery
business, continuing as such till his
father retired from business.
Mr.. Crilly was a member Of Post
f. Travellers Protective Association
of this city. Besides his parents, he
is survived by three sisters, Miss
Genevieve r. Crilly, Miss Gertrude

NEW DEFENSE PLAN DRAFTED
BY THE ARMY GENERAL STAFF

the country that no enemy landing
would be possible. To this end the
War Department, of course, leans
heavily upon the navy as we'll as upon
its own coast defense Notifications.
with Is divisions and appropriate
auxiiaries Of the National Guard,
supplemented by the regular army,
prepared for necessary expansion,
the General says in his report to Sec
retarv Weeks, ''and with certain spe-
cial units formed in the organized re-
serves, we shall be able to cover our
coasts and land frontiers against Sc
rious invasion at the start"
Behind this first line" the Gen
eral continues, "the remaining units
of the organized reserves, fully con-
stituted with a frework of officers
and non commissioned officers, will be
prepared to undertake the training of
their raw recruits at once. We shall
thus be able deliberately to develop
our military power to any necessary
extent without risk of serious dis
aster through surprise at the out
break of war and without the neces-
sity of maintaining a burdensome
military establishment in time of
peace"
Such military organization as is
now planned causes no menace to any
other nation. the General Staff in
sists, but assures the impregnability
of continental United States in the
event of attack by any possible hos
tile combination.

IN CONGRESS
YESTERDAY

Met at II o'clock and recessed at
$50 O'Clock until II o'clock tomor-
row morning.
Began consideration of the wool
schedule, the last big controversial
rate question in the tariff bill.
Senator Bursum (Republican), New
Mexico, said the 80 cents a pound
duty on secured wool would enable
wool growers to produce that article
in this country at Il profit that would
not exceed 10 per cent.
Opening the argument on the wool
schedule Chairman McCumber said
the average of the duties of the pend
ing bill on manufactured articles
computed on the ad valorem basis
was considerably less" than under
the PayneAldrich law.
Replying to Senator Jones Demo
craft, of New Mexico, Senator Smoot
declared the committee in framing
the wool schedule chad paid no atten-
tion to what the manufacturers had
to say" on the subject of compensa-
tory duties, and that the findings Of
the tariff commission were taken as
the basis for the duties.
Senator Walsh (Democrat), of
Massachusetts, attacking the bill,
said the duty proposed on wool was
the highest ever levied on raw wool
and that it could be shown the added
cost of wool to the manufacturing in
dustry, based upon the 33 cents a
pound rate, would be $72,600,000.
The Massachusetts senator contend
ed that when this additional cost was
pyramided all along the line the to-
tai increased cost passed on to the
consumer would amount to 5000, 0,000,-
900.

VIRGINIA NEWS
AT CAPITAL
By George H. Manning
Especial COrrespondsnr.)

Washington, D. C. July 24.-All
hopes of passing the Fordney- Nc
Cumber tariff bill in time for them
to participate in the coming con-
gressional campaign appears to have
been abandoned by republican lead
ers of the senate.
1t now seems that consideration of
the measure will be extended to the
end of September or the middle of
October, and the matter is becoming
source Of grave fears among that
contingent of the upper chamber VINO
come up for reelection this fall.
Their presence on the ground is need
ed in order to combat criticism OF
certain of the high schedules provok-
ed by democratic members and the IN
surgent republican group.
Tariff legislation must either be
laid aside together with the ship sub
sidy and soldier bonus bills, or the
congressional campaign will be car
ried on from the offices of senator's
and representatives at the Capitol.
Something of a long distance cam
paign would follow from this. Mem
bers would have to do their election
eering by mail and by proxy, which
recent events have pointed out to
be a very ineffective method of pro-
cedure, entailing the loss of personal
touch with their constituencies.
The tariff is the main stumbling
block, Ship subsidy and bonus legls-
lation, it is said, might be negotiat-
ed with comparative ease. Those
measures could be enacted into law
within a reasonable time, but politi-
cal observers who have watched the
course of tariff debate in congress
during previous administrations be-
lieve that the ney-McCunlber
cannot be disposed of by the senate,
by the conference 'cbmnIittee and by
the House and Senate again until the
fall months have arrived.
If progress on the remainder OF
the bill is no greater than on that
which has already been disposed Of,
five or six months, at least, will be
needed to pass it. 1t is thought that
the conferences between members of
the House and Senate to adjust the
differences arising between the two
chambers will take another month.
Up to the, present time, the SEN.
ate has only passed the nine hun
dredth paragraph of bill which has
I,69O paragraphs. fFurther, many of
the debatable. items in the bill have
been passed over and still have to
come up for discussion. And after
the total number of paragraphs have
been disposed of there are 34O sec
tions covering administrative mat
ters and general provisions which
must be considered.
The tariff bill has been before, the
upper chamber for three months, hav-
ing been presented for debate on
April 20. SO far only committee
amendments bearing upon rates have

Urged to Pay City
Licenses Without Delay

All city licenses must be paid at
once, the time for their payment is
long overdue. Mayor J. NJ. Duncan
now has the members of the police
department collecting these licenses
and everything will have to be in by
August as the mayor desires to have
everything in readiness to turn over
to the new form of city government
which becomes operative September
l. The mayor requests all to pay and
avoid having drastic action taken for
their failure. Those on whom the po-
lice fail to call are requested to call
at the mayors Office on North Pitt
street and make settlement at once.
Many automobile owners it is un-
derstood have failed thus far to take
out the required city license.
