CONFERENCE CUTS CHARGES
Secretary Baker Says Billion
; Dollars Will Be Needed for
.f Army Expenses' Coming Year.
Washington, May 30. Great Brit
ain attempted to exact from the
United States a charge of $150 a
man $ 10 more than the price . of
a ' first claaa passage on an ocean
liner for the transportation of
American soldiers to France.
This official information wumtdrfi
to the house military affairs com
mittee Thursday, by Brigadier Gen
eral Frank T. 1 lines, chief of the em
barkation service,
"The original agreement, General
Hlnes " said, -was that the United
States should pay to. England the
v. . Ayviiocu VI O.L L Jf UUI PVl"
diers to Europe.
ESTIMATE JtEDUCED .-
'f; Included among the items on which
the cost was to be calculated were In
surance, the cost, of operation, food and
the cost of alterations in the ships. ,
It was found Impossible to speedily
arrive at the actual cost on this basis,
the committee was told.
" Great Britain submitted a bill for
SI&2, 000, 000. which. General llinea said,
w as .at the rate of $150 a man.
i The war department immediately pro
tested against this exorbitant charge.
Subsequently the matter was placed in
the hands of Lord Reading, the British
ambassador, who held a conference with
Secretary Baker. The agreement be
tween the ambassador and the secre
tary was that $81.75 a man was an ade
quate price, and this was paid.

: - Secretary Baker appeared before the
committee today and proposed a system
of educational and vocational training
for all men in the army. He asked ap
propriations aggregating: $1417,000,000
for the military establishment during
the next fiscal year.. v
Secretary Baker said it is desired to
make the army an "institution of edu
cation." He has ordered the general
staff to work out the plan immediately,
ft will be ready for congress when the
army reorganization is taken up, which.
Chairman Kahn said, will follow the ap?
propriatlon bill- -
- - The secretary explained that his plan
had the approval of General Pershing
and was the result of the American
army's experience in France.
I It provides for the'utllizatlon of uni-
iversitiea, technical institutions and high
scnoois in-tne tratntns or enlisted men.
The soldiers would be sent to school for
several months daring each year under
army discipline in much the same man
ner as the student army training corps
was conducted during the war.

LOST MONTH AT
A TIME FROM
' WORK, HE SAYS
Was All Crippled Up Until Tan
: lac Rids Him of Rheu
- matism; Gains 30 Pounds.
. "When I commenced taking Tanlac
a Bhorr time ago I only weighed one
hundredand thirty pounds, and now 1
'tip the scales at one hundred and sixty.
- which gives me a gain of thirty pounds,"
:: said Thomas Gensen. a well known em
ploye of the Abian Machine Works, who
lives at Gresham. Oregon, while in The
Owl Drug Store in Portland the other
day.
1 "I was f in mighty bad condition when
I commenced taking Tanlac,"1 he contin
ued, "for. I had been suffering terrible
for four long years with rheumatism,
and' it had begun to look like I was
: never going to find any medicine or
treatment that would overcome it. I had
this trouble in nearly every part of my
body, but it was much worse in- my
arras and' shoujders than anywhere else.
Why, I was in such a bad .fix for a long
- time that I couldn't raise my arms high
. . enough to put my hat on my head, and
it was out of the question for me to put
my coat on by myself. The muscles and
leaders in my arms felt just like they
were tied in knots at times. My stomach
was in very bad condition, too, and
everything I ate would sour on my
stomach after meals, and t would have
awful cramping spells. I was in so
much pain at night that I never slept
well. I also suffered from constipation
- and frequently had bad spells of head
ache that would often last two or three
days at a time. All my strength and
energy seemed to leave me, and finally
got to where I would lose as much as a
month at a time from my work.
"I had been reading the statements in
the . papers about Tanlac, and as it
seemed to be doing so many people so
much good. I decided to give it a trial
myself, t Well, to make a long story
short,'! have taken six bottles of Tanlac
so far, and I can truthfully say that I
am as well 'and hearty as I ever was in
my life. I never have the slightest sign
of stomach trouble now, and while ' I
have a ravenous appetite and eat Just
anything" I want, .1 don't suffer a par
ticle from indigestion or sour stomach
after meals. : The rheumatism has left
me entirely, and I am free from all
those terrible aching, pains I used to
have. I can use my arms and shoulders
all right now, and can work as well is
any man. ? Tanlac is a wonderful medi
cine, and X don't hesitate to recommend
it to anybody who suffers as I did."
Tanlac is sold In Portland by The Owl
, Drug Co. Adv.
us that every man in , the army should
be educated," Mr. .Baker said. ; , -
. "We plan to make the army an ' in
stitution, of education; with special at
tention to the vocational training that
army work demands, j . ., i ;
Both . the ' secretary : and "' General
March, chief of staff, denied that this
plan tended towards universal military
service. They said : at "this time no
plans have been mads for extensive
military training In the schools. ,
EXTENSION POSSIBLE , 5
' Chairman Kahn asked:'
"Why could not these educational
army units be used as the basis for
extensive military training at the
schools r
That is possible.? Mr. Baker replied,
"but we have not considered that phase
of the work." t -
The hearing developed that the : re
tention of American soldiers in Siberia
is a very live issue in congress. Examin
ation of General March revealed that
the Siberian expedition was financed
out of the president's personal fund. -
General March said r
"The president turned . over $5,000,000
at one time and another sum I cannot
exactly recall at a later date, but we
believed that this money was virtually
loaned to the Czecho-Slovak govern-
