calling for additional expansion OF
the air corps and troop mechani.
zation costing from $500. 600, 900 to
81. 900, 000, 900 more than the al

ures now being rushed through con-
gress. would lift total rearmament
spending to the neighborhood OF

however, how much OF this congress
would be asked for now.
II was learned authoritative
Iy the military experts told
Roosevelt the world situation
has changed even since he
drafted his request for an ex-
ira S1,182, O00, 900 In appropria-
lions and authorizations for
defense only two weeks ago.
koosevelt's message Of two
weeks ago asked a $4,000 army

mates carried funds for only a
