By the Associated Press. When the next national emergency arises the American doughboy probably will be armed with a semi-automatic shoulder rifle that will increase his fire- power and insure him more protection than the present service rifle. ‘The new semi-automatic rifle is being tested, Maj. Gen. Robert H. Allen, chief of Infantry, advised Secrelary of War Davis in his annual report, made pub- lic yesterday. “These tests indicate clearly the| practicability of an eventual replace- | ment of the present magazine rifle with a semi-automatic .ifle,” Gen. Allen said. “Conditions affected by weight of weapon and by weight of ammunition carried by the rifieman point strongly to a reduction of caliber.” Experiments with motor vehicles for cross-country transportation of Infan- try units under field service conditions were carried on during the year with a degree of success. Large units are to be equipped with cross-country motor cars and trucks for further tests. Gen. Allen recommended the issuance of more and better uniforms to infan- trymen. He added that the “present system of expecting the soldier to main- tain his company recreation rooms, his major sports and his moving pictures out of his pay is not calculated to in- crease contentment within the ranks.” EARL OF CLONMELL DIES.

C, CURTIS SUCCESSOR RAGE FREE-FOR-ALL Watson, Jones, McNary, Fess, Moses and Reed of Pennylvania Discussed. By the Associated Press. | The problem of choosing a majority leader to succeed Senator Charles Cur- tis of Kansas, Vice President-elect, is giving Republican members of the Sen- ate some political pastime after the serious labors of a national campaign. An apparently triendly contest which is still a free-for-all is being waged | in_behalf of some of the older Re- | publican Senators, with the names of Senators Watson of Indiana, Jones of Washington, McNary of Oregon, Fess of Ohio, Moses of New Hampshire and | Reed of Penasylvania, among those | under discussion. Senlority has always been the guiding light in the determination of Senate posts, but this has been waived in re- cent years in the selection of the party leader. When Senator Lodge of Massa- chusetts died four years ago, Senator Curtis was chosen as his eCessor, although he was outranked in seniority by Senators Warren of Wyoming, Smoot of Utah and Borah of Idaho. Honor Little Sought. These three veterans have indicated again that they prefer the chairman- ships of their important committees to the cares of a floor leader, and so the contest has been thrown wide open once more. 5 Senator Watson of Indiana is assist- ant leader, and is believed by some of his workers to have the “inside track.” Senator Jones of Washington, who is now whip, outranks the Indiana Senator, however, and is considered a ‘{kely foe if an open contest develops. But the entire discussion fs still under cover and still in the whisper stage, for Senator Curtis has not indicated when he will relinquish his post. not become Vice President until March 4 at the conclusion of this short ses- sion. He is undecided whether to con- tinue as Senator through the short term, but there is every indication that he will do so until about Christmas time, at least. ‘Would Support McNary. Several Senators are reported to be prepared to support Sznator McNary of Oregon for leader in the event a dead- lock is threatened. The Oregon Sena- tor is well known, having led the farm relief fight as chairman of the agri- culture committee. He is now prepar- ing an administration farm bill and has taken the lead in the fight for passage of farm relief legislation at this short session. McNary is outranked by Senators | Watson, Jones and Moses of those most prominently mentioned for the post. Another Senator whose name has fig- ured in the discussion is Fess of Ohio, the assistant whip, just elected to his | second term, . The decision will rest with a party caucus which probably will not be called for that purpose until Senator Curtis has anonunced his retirement, or | until shortly before he becomes Vice | President.
