WASHINGTON LETTER
Continued from Page ID


The spectacular maneuvers of the
Army air service in the Middle West
and East have other aspects than the
military training. This winter the
Congress will be called on to lop off
large sums from appropriations for
the military and naval establishments.
If the public is sufficiently impressed
so that their interest may be exploited
in letters to legislators, it is an easy
bet that Congress will not run rough
shod over the demands for army
funds,
The Navy is handicapped in their
propaganda for it is physically i'm
possible to stage these shows to the
admiring throngs. They pursue other
tactics. Legislators are invited to
attend battle fleet stunts and touring
legislators are entertained royalty on
Navy ships. By this means the Sena-
tors and Representatives obtain first
hand information which is supple
mented by other details direct from
the Navy high command at Washing
ton. Despite the Presidents plans
for economy in these services not
much hope is held out for drastic cuts
in their appropriations.
