General Malshall explained that
the Army and War Departments,
in preparing for the emergency,
did not dare to ask for appropria-
tons which were necessary until
congressional opinion was altered
by the impact of the German
break-through in France last
summer He pointed out that as
late as March, 1910. many of our
appropriations requests were cut,
although two months later he
was bitterly criticized for sug-
costing that we should have only
10000 more planes.

experience, and pointed cut that il
was impossible TO know what
problems modern war would i'm
pose until new German tactics and
weapons IN the present war re-
vealed themselves. While pre-
iminary plans provided for AN

induCt the National Guards into
Federal service until last fall, nor
did /, pass Selective Service
Act until that time.

In connection with future plans,
the General pointed out that with
$15,0O0,000 appropriated early
this year to make preliminary
surveys for the location of camps
for additional soldiers, that the
staff in charge had been able in
three months to select only seven
of the twenty-eight sites. These
sites, he stated, must be much
larger than those used in the
World War because of the need to
organize in single localities large
triangular divisions of various
arms which must be taught to
work in cooperation. In addi-
ton, there is the greatly expand
ing fire-range of modern weapons
which require large areas free
from civilian activities for train
ing. Equally large areas are re-
quired for training armed forces
with tanks, highly destructive to
roads and soil.

DEFENSE CONTRACTS
TO PREVENT INITIATION
ARMY over THE HUMP"
LEARNING WAR LESSONS
PLANNING NEW CAMPS

II should be understood that the
Treasury program of increased
taxation has been suggested with
the Idea of constituting strong
deterrent on prices and infla-
ton. Officials realize that civil
ian buying will soon "outstrip"
the output of civilian consumer
goods and that in order to avoid
a runaway rise in all living
costs, some way must be found
to cut down the volume of civil
ian spending. Increased taxation
and heavy borrowing out of the
savings of the public is expected
to retard increased prices.

some criticism of the high cost of

CLEANSING, Sept. 16-Another
interstate lorg distance rate re-
duction, providing estimated an
nual savings of $4,000 for
Michigan Bel Telephone Com
pany customers, became effect
i've today.
The new reduction applies to

brings the intrastate rates

between the American Tele-
phone and Telegraph Conn.,
pany and the Federal Communi-
cations Commission. The Michi-
gan Bell Company filed it, new

In addition to reducing intra-

new Michigan Bell schedules al
SO reduce the overtime rate on
most persor-to-person calls to
that applying to station-to-st sta

The latest reduction brings the
total savings to Michigan users
through long distance rate cuts
made effective this year to more
than $1.50O,OO0 annually. That
includes savings of 100000
brought about by the Michigan
interstate toll rate cut made eff
fective IN April, and nearly
100000 as a result of the inter-
