U. S, SENATE PASSES
$4,000 ARMY BILL
Measure Carrying Appropriation
of $341,75O,OOO Put Through
Same Day 1t Was Taken Up.

Notwithstanding an apprepri-
alton of $341 100000, the annual Army
appropriation bill was passed by the
senate. 1t fixes the size of the Army
for the next year at an average OF
1850 officers and $4,000 men.
Passage of the bill, which was with
out record vote, followed quickly
after test vote by which the senate
accepted, 40 to 81, its committees ac-
tion in increasing the house figure on
the size of the army from 115,0OO to
$4,000 enlisted men. The strength of
1850 officers compares with 11,0U6 as
voted by the house
The senate disposed of the bill
speedily, the measure being taken up
six hours. All committee amendments
except those affecting the size of the
army were acted upon. within three
hours, constituting what was regarded
as almost a record by the senate.
Next to the question Of the size Of
the army the proposition causing most
debate was the amendment submitted
by the Agricultural Committee APP
propriating $7,5OO,0O0 for continuation
of work on the Muscle Shoals ,Ala-
bamO Federal power project, which
the senate accepted without a record
vote after a parliamentary tangle
which lasted for an hour.
The Muscle Shoals amendment
promised for time to reopen the
whole question of the governments
policy with respect to the power pro-
ject, but Chairman Norris, of the
Agricultural Committee declared that
no policy had been determined and
that to delay work further on Dam No.
2 in the Tennessee River would be an
economic crime"
Although the army strength agreed
upon by the senate was regarded as
compromise from the figure of 10000
sought by the War Department and
that fixed by the house, Senators ex-
pect a hard fight before an agreement
is reached with the house.

POINCARE,S POLICY
. STRONGLY UPHELD
Riotous Opposition Succeeds in
Marsha|Iing Only 100 Voices
in Test of Confidence.

Paris.-The Chamber of Deputies, by
vote of 4S4 to 100, gave Premier
Poincare a free hand to continue to
direct the foreign policy of France
along the lines he has pursued since
he assumed power.
The vote also approved the govern
ment's attitude at the Genoa confer
ence, left the government the sole
judge as to whether France shall oe
represented ut The Hague conference
and reserved to the government the
right to act alone toward Germany in
case of fragrant violation Of the Ver-
saiiles treaty.
The vote came after one Of the most
stormy sessions ever witnessed in the
French chamber, which has been the
scene of many bitter debates.
Evidence of the influence of Poincare
over the chamber was shown when tine
questions as to priority of the numer-
GUS orders of the day came up. Nj.
Herriot, leader of the Radical party,
insisted that his order of the day re-
garding international loans should
have priority. To this Poincare OBJ
jected, and the chamber voted 426 10
143 against Herriot, but when the
straight order of the day, involving a
vote of confidence in the government,
was put before the chamber, the oppo-
sitiOn vote was reduced to 100, while
that of tho SIIppOrtprS of tha govern
ment was increased to 4S4.
M. Herriot had charged the Premier
with being responsible for the question
of international loans not being put
before the Genoa conference. The
Premier replied he had refused TO
bring up the question because he was
convinced it was too closely and dan
gerously associated with that Of the
German debt.

The limit was taken off by clause
in an emergency bill, which became
effective on the date of signature by
the Governor, April 13. Immediately
afterwards another bill was signed and
the Governor dealing with another
phase of the compensation, but also
restoring the $4,000 limit. This second
bill becomes effective today, along
with other non-emergency measures,
and, having been signed later, 1t is
held to supersede the first bill.

To Import School Supervisors.

Following a meeting of the State
Board of Education, A. S. Cook, State
Superintendent of Schools, left for
New York, where, it is understood, he
will prospect for county supervising
teachers" or helping teachers" as
provided for in the new education law
passed by the last session of the Cen
eral Assembly. Mr.. Cook will seek to
obtain the necessary personnel from
the Teachers College of Columbia Uni
versity, it is said.
Among other things the educational
bill passed by the last session of the
Legislature provided for the creation
of the positions of county "supervis-
ing teachers" or of helping teachers" :"
From the visit of Mr.. Cook to New
York, the inference is drawn that
Maryland with its present Normal
School facilities, fails to supply, at
least in adequate numbers, teachers
qualified to act in this supervisory ca
pacity. The law which creates the
positions of county supervising teach
ers" or helping teachers" also makes
it mandatory upon the boards of coun-
ty commissioners to levy funds suffi-
cient for such teachers salaries.
