HOW “TIZ" HELPS TIRED, AGHING FEET ONLY TWO AGAINST REORGANIZING ARMY Hay Bill Providing for 140,000 Soldiers Easily Passed Washington, March 24.—The Ha; bill for, the reorganization and In- i crease of the army was passed yestor- day by the House by a vote of 402 to 2. Fred A. Britten, Republican, of Illinois, and Meyer London, Socialist, of New York, cast the opposing votes. Mr. Britten explained that he did not the bill, which provides an army of 140,000 men, as a real pre- paredness measure. That the House may be persuaded eventually to accept a bill from the Senate providing for a larger standing army was demonstrated by n record vote on the Kahn amendment pro- posing an army of 220,000. This amendment v defeated 2138 to 191, a majority of The “‘big army” strength in the House was a surprise to the author of the amendment. The amendment had been defeated in committee on the whole, but the house agreed by unanimous consent to have a rollcall on the proposal be- fore taking the final vote on the pas- regard » large vote for the Kahn amend- ment strengthens the belief that when senate and house send their respective rmy bills to conference the compro- mise bill may provide for an army of 160,000 or more. On the Kahn amendment thirty-four Republicans voted against the big army plan and thirty-three Democrats for it. Party lines were not closely followed on the several rollcalls taken on the bhill, although the majority of democrats stood by the committee bill as framed by Chairman Hay of the military af- fairs committee and the republicans gave the greater amount of support to proposed amendments. Short-Term Enlistments. military committee met two By vote of 204 to 198 adopted the amendment of- fered by Representative Auguetus P. Gardner of Massachusetts making possible a short-term enlistment. This amendment provides that after one year’'s active service an enlisted man may be turned into the reserve, pro- vided his commanding officer at- tests that he is a proficient soldier.

On the Gardner amendment, which had been informally adopted during Hay asked a record vote with the result that the committee | provision w n rejected for the short-term enlistment idea The committee again met defeat when on motion of Representative McKenzie of Illinois a Republican, the House struck from the bill the pro- vision looking to the establishment of a nitrate plant, in which the Gov- ernment would have an interest through aid to private capital. The eliminated paragraph read: “‘That, to provide for the fixitation of atmospheric nitrogen by the de- velopment of water power or any other means necessary to establish an adequate supply of nitrogen, the ap- propriation of such sum or sums of money to construct the necessary plant for such purpose is hereby au- thorized.” While the bill did not go into de- tails in regard to the methods of providing this nitrate plant, it was understood that eventually the plan would call for an outlay of approxi- mately $13,000,000 by the Govern- ment, this sum to be advanced to private parties who would enter into a contract with the Government for the supply of water power and this amount of capital. Such a plant, the committee contended, rould be utilized in the manufacture of fer- tilizers in time of peace and high explosives in time of war, VERDUN CAMI”A\IGN GERMAN STRATEGY proposed Berlin Says Pauses in Attack Are Part of General Scheme of Army.
