UP) The senate military committee heard today the army cannot ob tain in less than two years suf ficient anti-aircraft weapons to equip its "initial protective force" of 400,000 men. Chairman Sheppard (D., Tex.) said Maj, Gen. Charles M. Wes son, chief of ordinance, told the committee day and night shifts would be required in manufactur ing plants to turn out sufficient of the heavier types of anti-aircraft guns in two years. The army made a start on man ufacture of this type of artillery under an appropriation of $13, 000,000 and contract authoriza tion of $10,000,000 by the last congress. Sheppard said testimony of Wesson and other army officials disclosed even the appropriation of $110,000,000 sought in the pres ident's rearmament program for this purpose would not provide enough artillery, ammunition and other supplies for the 400,000 sol diers comprising the regular army, national guard and organized re serves. While the senate committee considered armaments, the house military committee was told by George S. Mcssersmith, European nations were "using every effort to press the services of their ex perts" on South American coun tries free of charge. Saturday the bones of a child were found on a panhandle ranch causing the Perryton officials to attach greater credulity to the Oregon confessions. The investiga tion was reopened. The two bro thers were questioned again and repeated the story. Claud, 4U, and Elmer, 42, said J, M. Cone agreed to pay them S1.000 to murder his two sons, J. M. Cone, Jr., and Vernon Cone, 6, because he didn't want to be en cumbered with them when he "ran off with another woman." They said the father paid them only $250 so Claud shot him. They said eah shot one child and buried them 20 or 25 miles southeast of Perryton. A watch contains an average of 150 distinct parts, production of which requires 3700 separate operations.

"- system, told the committee "the state won't permit a public system i to operate on the same basis as private utilities because we have to pay off our debts in a certain period of time." For this reason, he said, publicly owned utilities were not in a posi tion to operate under restrictions suggested by opponents of the bill. Ray Gill, state grange master, said loss of taxes now paid by private companies, would be matched by reduction in power rates. "Why wasn't the question of lost I taxes raised when the city took over city docks and other func tions?" Gill asked, A charge that the Eugene system, through its exemption from taxes, has produced a "high toll of fore closures and delinquent taxes" in Eugene was made by Elmer Max ey, Springfield publisher. He attacked "high-powered campaigns" by the water board last fall when a taxing proposition was defeated. A. A. Smith, representative of Portland General Electric, told the committee publicly-owned systems should operate on the same basis as private utilities.
