DEFENSE OUTLAY
MAY HIT ECONOMY
Senate Committee Ready to
Start Work on Army
Measure.
BY the Associated Press.


The second half of a national de-
tense fund, which appears likely to
override congressional economy senti-
ment to become the largest in peace
time history. is ready for considera-
ton by the Senate Appropriations
Committee.
Members said today they would start
work on an appropriation bill for the
Army as soon as they complete study
Of one for the Agriculture Department.
The House voted to grant the Army
4416,413,382. Congress has enacted a
bill making 1926, 8O8 available for
the Navy in the year starting July l.
Their total of $942, ,672. 100 is $23,-
1884 larger than the appropriations
for the present year, which set a rec
ord for peacetime.
Economy Secondary.
National defense, Speaker Bankhead
said, is one item with which Congress
is not inclined to tamper in trying to
economic.
Together the measures will supply
money for sizable expansion of the
manpower and equipment of the Ma
tion's armed forces.
Although the naval appropriation
act provides s1,843,724 less than the
current appropriation, it will permit
the Navy in the coming fiscal year to:
Start the construction of eight more
destroyers and four submarines.
Continue the building of battle
ships, aircraft carriers, II cruisers,
48 destroyers, 16 submarines and a
gunboat.
Improve the battle efficiency Of a
number Of combatant craft.
Buy or contract for 3s7 airplanes
and 2 non-rigid airships
Begin the acquisition of reserves of
strategic war minerals
There was talk of postponing an
additional $3.50 100000 naval construc-
ton program as an economy move.
The measure already passed will let
the Navy improve navy yards and
bases on both coasts and in Hawaii
and the Virgin Islands, intensity a
secret research program, begin train
ing Reserve personnel from the Mer-
chant Marine, and close the fiscal
year with 10000 enlisted men as
against 100000 this year.
For the Army, the House agreed
to add $25,037,598 to the current
peacetime record appropriation OF
1891, ,784.
513 New Airplanes.
The bill would let the War Depart
ment purchase or contract for 513
airplanes in the next fiscal year, and
start building at Tacoma, Wash, the
first Of series of giant defensive air
bases
Funds are provided also to improve
existing air bases, fields and depots
Compared with an average of 1860
enlisted men in the present year, the
bill provides for 162 900 next year.
The House, overriding Budget Bu-
reau recommendations, added 100000
to funds for strengthening sea coast
defenses for the Continental United
States and 100000 each for the Canal
Zone and the Territories.

eral cooperation with the States in
reforestration work The measure
went through after the House had re-
iected, l73 to l59. motion to strike
out the enacting clause.
Representative Cochran, Democrat,
of Missouri, who made the motion, said
the bill probably is meritorious. He
pointed out, however, that the Budget
Bureau approved it before the Presi-
dent sent up his message urging Con-
gress not to pass new laws calling for
additional expenditures. Cochran also
said the requirement for a so per cent
local contribution, in the bill when it
left the Budget Bureau, had been elm
mated
Another anti-spending move began
to develop in the House Naval Affairs

New York, ranking Republican men,
ber, said he had discussed with Chair
man Vinson the advisability of delay
ing for the time being the construction

the overhauling Of two aircraft car
riers. Vinson, however, said nothing
has been decided along that line.

Salaries Not Affected.

1t leaves no leeway for subsequent
release of the funds cut.
Salaries Not Affected.
The Tennesseean's resolution states
definitely that no cut shall operate
to reduce salaries of employees who
are retained, but does not remove the
likelihood of employees being laid off
If percentage cut is applied.
Senator McCarran, Democrat, of
Nevada. who more than a week ago de-
clared his opposition to the Byrnes
plan for mandatory 10 per cent cut
in appropriations, also made known
today his disapproval of the McKellar
proposal McCarran feels it would en-
able the Budget Bureau to perform the
functions OF Congress in determining
appropriations.
The bill to authorize S2,50000O a
year for Federal aid to reforestation in
the States escaped the economy drive
when the Senate quickly agreed today
to the measure as it passed the House
yesterday.
Acts without Debate.
Senate action came without debate,
largely because the Senate previously
had passed an almost Identical bill.
The House, however, took up its own
bill on the subject, which made an
other vote necessary in the Senate,
since both Houses must act on the
same bill
Before its passage. Senator Norris,
independent, of Nebraska criticized
the practice of the House in SUBJ
stituting its own bills after the Senate
acts first on measure The refores-
tation authorization goes to the Presi-
dent for signature, but the funds will
have to be provided in an appropria-
ton bill.
The conflict of opinion in Congress
over whether the relief estimate should
be reduced or raised will be emphasized
this afternoon, when the House SUBJ
committee hears individual members
Of Congress. 1t is understood a num-
Der who are not members of the COM
mittee have asked to appear, some to

that may be available at the close of
this fiscal year to help meet the future
relief need and also to find out what
other emergency agencies besides

It is in this connection that Resettle-
ment officials have been asked to ap-

financed next year out of the relief
fund.
May End Hearings Today.
The subcommittee may complete the
executive hearings today, but will not
be called together by Acting Chair
man Woodrum to reach a decision
until Monday or Tuesday. 1t prob
ably will act at the same time on the
separate bill to continue the life of
P. w. A. for two more years.
Senator Mcclellan had given some
thought to offering his discretionary
percentage cut plan as an amendment
to the second deficiency bill when it
comes out of the Senate Appropria-
tions Committee tomorrow, which
would have precipitated an immediate
test of strength on the economy issue
He announced later, however, he would
Introduce it as a separate resolution

tors when they are sworn in.
This official interpreted Nor
gan's appeal as an effort to arouse
public pressure for immediate re-
sumption of negotiations for a
TVA-private utility power pool.
President Roosevelt suggested
such an agreement last fall but
negotiations were dropped after
one conference last October.
Morgan suggested pool organ
ization should buy power from
IVA and private plants and re-
sell it to local distribution sys-
TENS, either publicly or privately
owned, and denounced any "bluff-
ing and horestrading attitude" in
efforts to work out such an ar
rangement.
Lilienthal has insisted that any
such arrangement provide for sale
of power to consumers at yard
stick" rates established by the
IVA which, under the law, must
give preference to publicly-owred
distribution systems.
Norris and Rankin oppose any
pool agreement, contending that
private utilities have broken faith
through continued efforts to block
the IVA program by court action.
AT immediate issue is the ques-
ton of renewing the IVA con-
tract for interchange of power
with the Commonwealth & South
ein Corp, which expires Feb. 3.
Lilicnthal is said to oppose re-
newal until the company drops its
anti-TVA court attacks.

Latin Is Vital To
Understanding0f
Life Says Butler

NEW YORK, Jan. 1S.-UP).
DR.. Nicholas Murray Butler, pres
ident of Columbia University, re-
Gently commended the study of
Latin in letter to Margaret Lou
Use Gurisic, ii, a student in
Princeton high school. Miss Curl
sic wrote to DR.. Butler asking his
opinion of the advantages of Lat
in, explaining that she was "mak-
ing a Latin project"
"The question put in your let
ter is very important for the
young Americans of today who
loo kforward to preparing them
selves in their school and college
life for intelligent understanding
of the world in which they are to
live and for participation in its
many-Sided activities" DR.. Butler
said in his reply.
"To my thinking, knowledge of
Latin is a vital part of any school
and college preparation for the
world of tomorrow which is to be
in any wise adequate. Latin is
not only the basis of all of the
So-called romance languages OF
the modern world, but it is the
key by which alone can be UNI
locked the Stupendous amount OF
knowledge and culture which the
Romans possessed and transmitted
to the world for over one thou
sand years.
"Our modern philosophy and
our modern law cannot be fully
understood without some knowl-
edge of the fundamental princi-
pies of that law which Rome gave
to the world. In literature, the
Latin language enShrines some of
the greatest masterpieces of the
human mind, including the writ
ings of historians such as Caesar
and Livy and Tacitus, of orators
such as Cicero and of poets such
as Virgil. :,
"Moreover, in our institutional
life. in our political and social or
ganization, we are all at this
moment under the influence OF
Roman example and Roman ac-
compliShment. Anyone who studies
zoology in any of its subdivisions
is Immediately directed to embry-
ology, which is the study of the
beginnings out Of which later and
adult life have come.
an like manner, to study Latin
is to study the beginnings of the
life which we now live and which
the young people of today will
have to live few years from
now. There is no way to under
stand what is going on in the
world today that compares with a
knowledg eof how it came to be
going on, what were its causes,
its origins, and its earlier history.
."By the study of Latin, intelli-
gently and thoroughly pursued,
all of this knowledge may be put
at the disposal Of the student of
today and tomorrow"
