HOOVER ID PRUNE MILITARY EXPENSE
Plans Commission to Make Sur-
 Vey Of All Projects
MAY DELAY SOME WORK
Extensive Inquiry into Equipment, Needs and Possibility of Postpon- ing Parts of Program Planned by President

Washington. July g CP-Presi- dent Hoover intends to establish q commission of army officers within the general staff to see what can be done toward reducing military expenditures.
 The commission, the president said today, would be charged with making an extensive inquiry to de- termine what has been made obso- lete by scientific advancements and could be done away with, and what army programs can be spread over longer periods than originally in tended and at the same time main tain complete and adequate pre- paredness.
 Budget Worlds Greatest
 The president said the purely military expenses of the United States constitute military budget greater than that of any other na- tion and at a time when he con- siders there is less danger of war than at any period within the last 50 years.
 The possibility of tax reduction. he added, was dependent to a large extent upon an ability to curtail and naval expenditures. He regards the national situation as modified by the Kellogg treaty and said he was hopeful that expendi- lures might be saved through naval disarmament agreement.
 The president said that as now estimated purely military expendi- lures will constitute one-half of the increased government outlay esti- mated by 193$.
 It is now estimated, he said. that the military outlay for 1883 will be sS03. 100000. which is S120.OOO.O O0l more than the similar expenditure for the fiscal year just closed. and with an average pre-war expenditure for the military activi- ties of the army and navy of Sa6G,- 000,000 annually.
 Transcript of Statement
 The official transcript of Presi- dent Hoover's comment. which was given in reply to questions of news paper correspondents. was as fol- | lows:
 Hast week there was published | a statement showing the estimated | increase in federal expenditure ovcr the next four years, as imposed by | legislation already passed by con Sress.
 I"These estimates indicate by 1883 | an increased burden of somewhere ! from S250, ,000.00N to $500, ,000. 900 . above the expenditures of the fiscal | year just ended and from S40O,00O.- poo to s50O.000,0O0 above the ex- of four years ago.
 of this, the purely military and | naval expenditures excluding non- activities of these depart nents. represent about one-half.
