Plans 10 Train More
Mechanics for Air
Program Complete
$1,000 Now Employed
May Be Doubled
Or TripIed

Administration plans are CON-
plete, authoritative sources said to-
day, to train additional aviation
mechanics to build and service the
thousands of new war planes pro-
vided in the defense program.
The Army expansion bill, voted
by the Senate and House, contains
sufficient authorization to go ahead
with the instruction as soon as
President Roosevelt signs it.
Supplementing proposals to train
some 10000 pilots annually in Sc
lected colleges, the mechanics pro-
gram has been delayed largely be-
cause half a dozen Government
agencies besides the Army and Navy
were involved.
More Mechanics Needed.
Details were withheld, but we'll
informed administration and con-
gressional sources reported these
considerations were governing:
l. Far more mechanics than pi-
lots will be required in expanding
the Army Air Corps to $500 or g.
900 planes and building up the
Navy's force to 5000 aircraft.
Both Senate and House have au-
thorized an increase of $4,000 en-
listed men in the Army Air Corps
alone. Plane construction in the
next two years will require doubling
or tripling the $1,000 skilled work.
ers now employed in plane factories
it was estimated by Maj. Gen. Henry
H. Arnold. Army Air Corps chief.
Q Either directly or through
scholarships the Army, Navy, Ma
tional Youth Administration and
the Interior Departments Office of
Education, among other Federal
agencies, now train mechanics. A
recommendation to the President
calls for gearing up their activity
under a single official.
May Enter Private Industry.
3. A large proportion of the newly
trained mechanics is expected to be
absorbed into private industry. Gen.
Arnold told House committee the
Army believed it would be able to
get all the enlisted mechanics
needed in the next two years from
Chanute Field, ILL.,, and new school
at Denver.
4. Training to be provided by the
Youth Administration is expected to
be of a preliminary, general ma
ture. Existing schools will be aided
by Federal payment of tuition for
certain students.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Sept. 28.-
Discoveries at the University of Ten
nessee in the use of liquid phosphoric
acid as preservative for 1egume
silage held the promise today of more
dollars for American farmers.
c. A. Mooers, director of the uni
0ersity's experiment station, an
nounced successful experiments with
a new phosphoric acid treatment
had added lespedeza sericea-a hardy
perennial-to the all-too-small list
Of useful silage legumes.
There has been a growing interest
among farmers in legume silage to
supplement the ordinary corn or
cane fodder silage.
Alfalfa, crimson clover, vetch,
lespedeza and other clovers have
been used, especially in the East, by
mixing black-strap molasses with
the legumes as preservative,
usually about eight gallons to a ton
OF silage.
High Tannic Acid Content.
This interest is rather recent.
however, in making hay silage," Mr..
Mooers said, adding that lespedeza
sericea, which produces abundant
crops even on poor land, was in
jured as hay crop because of a
high tannic acid content.
Our experiments have shown that
when the sericea is made into silage
with the phosphoric acid preserva-
tive, the tannic acid is done away
with and the result is a useful
silage."
The cost is about 81 ton.
The legume's high protein content
reduces the amount of costlier con-
centrates required by cattle or sheep
