Survey Shows American
Production Ahead of
Entry into World War

WASHINGTON, July IA.
(UP) = American industry,
even without the stimulation
of the country being actually
at war, is producing weapons
at rate that was not generally
achieved in 1917 until the United
States had been in the World war
for months.
A survey of armament progress
as compared with production In
1917 revealed that. in many categor-
les, industry now is even ahead of
the rate reached when the armis-
tice was signed on Nov. II, 1918.
Some then and now" armament
comparisons are difficult, but the
consensus of defense officials is
that the United States is rearming
more speedily after IA months OF
defense effort than it was in April.
1917-three years after the world
war started.
The American armed forces today
are superior in manpoWer, mach
ines and materials to what they
were when war was declared "a
years ago.
War department records show that
on April 6, 1917, the army had 1884,
900 regulars and $1,000 national
guard troops. The navy, $1,000 Of
ficers and men, and the marine
corps 13,60O.
The present army strength is l.
448,500, the navy 273,O96; and the
marine corps 54,342.

The information was conveyed to
the legislators at a White House
conference which lasted two hours
and Is minutes.
The congressional leaders were
understood to have advised Mr.
Roosevelt and Marshall that senate
and house opposition to the reten-
ton of selectees would be serious
and possibly overwhelming.
Senate Democratic Leader Alben
w. Barkley, KY, said, however, that
decision had been reached to have
the senate and house military af-
fairs committees begin hearings i'm

A member of the congressional
group disclosed that Mr. Roosevelt
was told he faces knockdown-d drag

This conferee said it was suggested
that Mr.. Roosevelt emphasize ex-
