SENATE BACKS
BILL TO RAISE
S|ZEOF ARMY

Increasing the enlisted strength
of the Army 5000 men to q
total Of 1855, 900, the annual War
Department appropriation bill
was tentatively approved by the
Senate yesterday.
Indications were the Senate
would pass the measure today and
send it to conference With the
House.
Amendment Ponds
Remaining to be disposed Of by
the Senate was an amendment by
Senator Frazier CR.), Of North
Dakota, to repeal compulsory mill.
tary training at Federal land
grant colleges. Similar amend
ments have been defeated an
nually for several years.
Altogether, the bill appropriateS
about 1858, 700, 900 as it stands in
the Senate. That total is divided
$416, 100000 for military purposes
and $246,800,000 for non-military
purposes.
While provisions for military
purposes are close to what the
House voted, the Senate boosted
the allotment for river and harbor
development and for flood control.
Double Flood Control
Both bodies agreed on $12S, O00,.
600 for river and harbor develop
ment. But where the House voted
$50, 000, 900 for flood control uu-
der the Copeland act of last year,
the Senate hiked that figure to
$50. GOT. 900.
In addition, the Senate gave q
contract authorization Of thirty
eight million dollars. If President
Roosevelt allots funds from the re-
lief appropriation for flood con-
troll, the amount carried in the
pending bill would be reduced by
the amount he allotS, it was ex-
planned.
After the House provided TWEEN.
ty-two and one-half million dollars
for Mississippi River flood control,
the Senate lifted that allowance
to forty-five million dollars, with
authority for the War Department
to make contracts for an addi-
tional ten million dollars.
More Officers
Inserted by the Senate was q
provision adding so general ply
Sicians and IS dentists to the
Army Medical Corps.
Officer personnel of the military
forces was increased 528, includ.
ing 200 officers for the r. o. T. C..
Authority for the Army Air
Corps to contract for twenty mil
lion dollars worth Of airpIanes in
lieu o. the $17,250, 900 provided

BRAZIL FREES

RIO DE JANERIo, Brazil, June
23.-Judge Raul Machado of the
National Security Tribunal mas
signed releases for 345 political
prisoners against whom charges
had been made, bringing the total
freed to about TOO since June 3.
when DR.. Jose Carlos de Macedo
Soares became Justice Minister.
Brazil also has returned to a
constitutional regime ending the
modified martial law known as a
state Of war, so many prisoners
who have not been tried are likely
to begin habeas corpus proceed
ings to free themselves.
Some newspapers see danger IN
the wholesale release of alleged
communists, though others stress
the difference between Brazil and
Russia in the treatment Of politi-
cal prisoners.
