ArmyFunds
Raised For
Defense.
By WILLIAM S. NEAL

UN.S0 The new Army suppl!
bill, which will be thrust beforC
Congress next week, will provide
. boost of 40,00O,0 900 for a mod
crate expansion program.
Although preparedness moves
In Congress are centered on thC
huge naval expansion program
the new budget bill will provide
for material increases in some
branches Of the Army.
HOUSE SPEEDS STUDY
Congress will be asked by the
House Appropriations Committee
to provide approximately $3.50,
00O,0 900 for military activities o1
the War Department in the year
beginning next July /.
With national defense senti
gaant/ running strong in Congress
&s the result eSf the Hitler coup
and japanese aggression, House
leaders decided to place the Army
bill ahead of the Agricultural
measure on the program.
The Army bill will contain the
11rst direct appropriation to carry
out the special message sent to
Congress by President Roosevelt
In which he urged the naval au'
thorization measure.
SPECIAL FUND FOR RESERVES
Approving the Presidents
Recommendation, the House An
propriations Committee will recon-
mend special fund Of $4,000, 900
for the Army. Actual appropria-
tinns for naval expansion as
recommended in the Presidents S
message will be delayed until au-
thorization legislation becomes
law.
The special appropriation will
provide funds to pay for the pro-
posed new army reserve OF $4,000
men, anti-aircraft guns and for
purchase Of dies, jigs and machln-
cry to be used in ordnance manu-
2acture.
MOBILE DEFENSE STRESSED
The supply bill will provide
sharp increases in funds for the
antiaircraft and coast defense
branches Of the Army, and Will
provide money to carry out the
Army mechanization program.
A sharp increase in mobile
coast defense artillery is planned.
Hearings, which will be made pub
lie in connection with the bill, will
reveal that the Army favors
building and maintenance Of ade-
Qlate coast highways so that mo,
bile defense guns can be moved
rapidly up and down the coast.
The measure also will carry
funds to maintain a standing
Army Of 10000 men. This
strength was reached for the
first time in recent years by the
Army in the present fiscal year
Appropriations for maintenance
Of American soldiers in the Philip
pines and the Philippine Scouts

is not germane and should be
ruled out of order; second, if held
in order, to attempt to strike it
from the bill by forcing a roll
call vote.
MAVERICK LEADS
One of the leaders of the bloc,
Representative Maverick CD of
Texas, was slated to make the at
tack from the floor.
The provision, already subjected
to repeated attacks from the floor
during debate the past four days,
would commit the Government to
maintaining e Navy strong enough
to defend both coasts simultane-
ously, and to protect commerce
and citizens abroad.
This is claimed to declare
a fundamental naval policy, but
actually is an invasion into
foreign affairs" Maverick de-
clared. The tendency is to take
policy, especially foreign policy,
out of congress and the State
Department and turn it over to
the Navy.
THE American Navy has no
separate responsibility for pro-
tecting American commerce and
citizens abroad. It is not an in
dependent branch of the Gov
ernment with a rowing commits
sion to protect American citi-
zens and trade against foreign
governments or their nationals.
RAPS MEDDLING
Certainly the Navy and the
Navy Department have no busi-
ness meddling with foreign af-
fairs. It is unheard Of"
A member of the House naval
affairs committee, Representative
Kniffin CD, of Ohio, while sup
porting the expansion program
also attacked the declaration of
policy.
He said he would offer his So
called "prize-ring" amendment
W11lCLl WOu4u pIONCIlG GAAC 4NoFJ
venturing beyond mid-Atlantic or
mid-Pacific unless this nation
were attacked. It also would have,
he said, the immediate effect of
causing this government to with
draw 40-odd fighting craft from
Chinese waters.
WILSON'S ATTITUDE
Chairman Vinson, of the Naval
Affairs Committee, whose name
the expansion bill bears, said he
would resist all attempts to amend
the measure with one exception.
He asserted he would urge the
House to accept a proposal by
Representative Mas (R0 of Min
nesota, to take the limit Of 5000
off the authorization for addi-
tional planes.
AS drafted, the bill would per-
NIT the Navy to possess an air
force of 5000 planes, $50 more
than now operated or ordered.
Mas proposal would place the
new authorization on the same
footing as the Vinson-Trammell
act which the bill amends. The
act left the size of the air force
to the discretion of the President.
The Washington times., 1938-03-18

Leaders OF the coaIlGlon bIoc
battling the bill, heartened by as
surances that many who favor the
expansion program will vote to
strike out the policy provision,
called a last-minute meeting to
map strategy before the House
convened.
They planned to attack the pro-
vision first on the grounds that it
is not germane and should be
ruled out of order; second, if held
in order, to attempt to strike it
from the bill by forcing a roll
call vote.
