McCuistion also said he would re-
turn voluntarily to New Orleans and
answer any questions the police on
cials there ask him. '.I have moth
ing to hide" he declared.
McCuistion will be taken before
the civil liberties division of the
Justice Department at the request
OF the committee. The committee
in resolution, asked the depart
'ment to investigate to md out
whether McCuistion's civil rights
had been violated.
Dies Calls It Intimidation.
In the opinion of Chairman Dies
Of the House Committee, the ar
rest Of McCuistion smacks Of ''in-
timidation" OF one Of his wit
nesses, the guilt for which he would
place upon the N. M. u, the New
Orleans police and the Department
Of Justice. Last night he indicated
he might even go to- New Orleans to
look into the matter.
I'm not going to let our wit
nesses be browbeaten or intimi-
dated" he said. If our witnesses
can be prosecuted or framed or have
their civil rights taken away, most
Of the witnesses We have lined up
probably would be intimidated."
Representative Dies read into the
record statement saying that mem-
bers Of the N. M. u, who obviously
sought to prosecute this man" should
be investigated.
Representative Dies also accused
Henry, A. Schweinhaut, assistant to
the Attorney General in charge of
civil liberties Investigations, OF at-
tempting to "discredit" McC Cuistion's 3
testimony.
He said that Mr.. schweinhaut
called police here to inquire about
the reports that New Orleans police
sought McCuistion, despite the fact
that the Justice Department claim
ed 1t had no jurisdiction In the case.
The department said later that
neither MIR. Schweinhaut nor any
other Official there had asked for
McC cCuistion's arrest. Mr.. Schwein-
haut's cali to the police, 1t said, was
merely for information.

minister the newly-created war de-
partment, which Quezon said was to

independence in 1916.
He pointed out that under the In.
dependence Act, the President Of
the United States was authorized to
open negotiations for the neutraliza- :
ton as soon as practicable after

in view Of present world conditions,
'The time is now ripe for such q
step to be taken"

the impression that such action on
the part Of the United States would
provide protection for Philippine in

Roosevelt Asks for
$275. .000. 900 to
Enforce Neutrality
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
As q result of presidential re-
quest for $275 100000 to enforce
American neutrality some officials
expressed belief today that ma
tional defense appropriations in 1910
likely would exceed $4,000, ,000, 600.
Mr.. Roosevelt told reporters yes
terday that Congress would be asked
to vote the S275. 600. 900 for unusual
expenses during the first 10 months
of the European war. :
The money, he said, would be
needed chiefly for the increases In
the Army and Navy which he Or
dered September in proclaiming a
state OF limited national elner-
gency.
Chairman Sheppard, Democrat. Of
Texas Of the Senate Military Com
mittee predicted that Congress
would grant $1,000, 100000 to the
Army for next year. Such a total,
he said, would include funds for
anti-aircraft guns already author
lied by Congress.
Navy Figures Near Billion.
Chairman Scrugham, Democrat.
of Nevada of the House Naval Ap-
preparations Subcommittee said that
he expected the Navy budget to
approach $1,000. 100000.
Mr.. Roosevelt said the special ap-
preparation would be less than the
$500, ,000,0 900 he estimated originally.
The money would be spent before
the end of June and would finance
increases of about 100000 in the
Army, Navy, Marine Corps and
Justice Department and the re
commissioning of about so World
War destroyers.
Means Of training the Army must
be increased, he said, and added
that additional facilities for the
Navy were needed on the Pacific
Coast.
He said that for years he had
been trying to prevail upon steel
companies to build plant on the
West Coast. Development of the
electric furnace, he explained, ap-
peared to make this economical.
Manganese Contracts Awarded.
The Army and Navy at the same
time were moving to stock up on
vital war materials and to strength
en- Caribbean defenses..
Contract awards were announced
by the Treasury to two companies
which are to supply 10000 tons of
manganese ore. The contracts were
the second awarded under the
500 ,000, 900 authorization of the last
Congress to store strategic and
critical" war materials.
The Cuban American Manganese
Corp, New York City, was given
contract for $4,000 tons of the ore
at $765, 900, and the Greenbrier Min
ing Corp, White Sulphur Springs,
w. Va, agreed to furnish 5000
