bombs, break the sleep of the dead honor this
Memorial Day.
In Flanders fields the crash and of a and
ercer surges the very graves of the American
1918 But for those who stayed behind to enrich with
their dust some of foreign land there is the
eternal rest and sleep has been given their COM

quick agony, the exataton of the taken town have

Another generation has and almost hesitate to

boys who sailed away in 1917-so changed is the world

and haggard face of president focused the eyes of
congress- and his words measured they rolled

Add Billion
To Defense
Program
Roosevelt TO Ask
Congress to Boost
Appropriations

WASHINGTON Apropri-
alton of another billion dol
lars for national defense will
be urged upon congress in a
message to be sent Friday by
President Roosevelt.
The house sent the Sl,4T3.756.-
72s naval appropriation for 1871
to conference with the senate.
The bill now includes the nsvy's
share Of the extra national defense
funds asked by President Roose-
welt two weeks ago.
The administration meantime
introduced legislation authorizing
the president to require training
of new Civilian Conservation Corps
members in "non-combat subjects
essential to the operations" of the
army and navy.
Four-BlllIon Program
The White House disclosure that
Roosevelt's defense requests will
total more than $1,000, 900. 900
brings the defense program to
around $4,000, 100000 for the
coming fiscal year, a total I'M
approached before in American
history except for the period when
this country was in the World war.
The new program. providing
guns, tanks. airplanes, and other
essential implements of war, will
be entirely supplemental to Roose-
velt's previous requests.
At least $500 more army planes.
In addition to those provided in
the previous program, were ex-
pected to be included In the re-
quest, in order to give the army
q minimum of 10000 to 1000
planes by July 1, 1941.
To Train n Million
In addition to the outright APP
preparation to be requested in the
message, White House Secretary
Stephen T. Early said. the presi-
dent will ask congress for means
to provide the government with an
elaborate program to train 1,00O.-
600 fighting men, technicians.
mechanical experts, and ground
crews.
Early said, In response to
questions, that there IL no
question of conservation 10
provide the personnel for the
new training program.
The full cabinet, with the ex-
cePtion Of Secretary of State Cor
dell Hull and Postmaster General
James A. Farley met in Roose-
velt's executive office to confer
with the army and navy chiefs
and the new civilian group.
