Gen. Hogood Calls Railway Gun
|Outmoded, Urges Army Drop 1t

way gun was lack of efficient
range-flnding equipment.
For railway artillery with its
crude apparatus to attempt TO hit
ships in motion upon the open sea
is a hopeless task" he said.
For land warfare in the United
States, railway artillery could be
used to lombard and destroy our
own cities and our own bridges and
utilities after they had been cap
tured by an enemy. No such situa-
tion could be brought about except
through the grossest neglect and
inefflciency."
From the standpoint of coast de-
fense, ne said, it would be cheaper
in the long run to spend 20 times
the cost of railway guns on fixed
Notifications.
AS part of the current arms ex-
pansion, the Army has reinforced
two railway artillery regiments and
is improving their weapons Their
standard equipment includes guns
of 8. II and IA inch caliber, and IA
inch mortars.
Maj. Gen. Joseph Green. chief OF
coast artillery, told Congress last
month that tests indicated the g.
inch gun was the most effective. The
newest model is credited with power
to hurl 260-pound shell l8 miles.

Senator Glass Slated
For President Pro Tenn

The job of Senate president pro
tempore apparently goes to 83-year-
old Carter Glass of Virginia,
Informed colleagues said the DEM
ocratic Steering Committee was
slated to name the colorful Virginian
tomorrow as its choice for the post.
After that, his election by the Senate
would be only a formality.
Friends said he would accept the
assignment. There was no statement
from Senator Glass himself.
He would succeed Senator Pat
Harrison of Mississippi, whose death
a week ago left vacant both the Of
fee of president pro tempore and
the chairmanship of the Finance
Committee. Reorganiza ton of sew
eral major committees is in prospect.
First speculation here on the presi-
dency pro tempore centered on Sem
ators Walter F. George of Georgia
and Tom Connally of Texas Sem
ator Kenneth D. McKellar of Ten
nessee also was mentioned.
During the weekend, word got
around the corridors that Senator
Glass would take the job If elected.
That seemed to settle it.

urged that the War Department
abandon the weapon entirely.
On the basis of tests he said had

Hagood contended that the big mo-

wheeled platforms were inaccurate
and not worth their cost.
Noting that the Army recently
