IS. (ff) The continuing drive lor economy brought to the House yesterday from Its ap propriation committee a blu rec ommendlng $31,684,000 lees to carry on the military activities of the war department next year than was al lowed for this. A year's suspension of the cltl- zens' military traluing camps which have drilled 337,000 young Amen cans In the arts of warare was pro posed by the war department &p- . proprlatlona sub-committee. The proposal was made In the name of economy. It would cut $1, 000,000 from the expenses of the gov ernment In the 1034 fiscal year. Non-Military Worn Cut. The general measure also allowed 79.S34.000 less for non-military work, but much of this reduction was due to non-recurring emergency con struction authorized last session and not continued in the new bill. As submitted to the house, the bill would allow (273,079,000 for military and 973,743,000 for non-military ac tivities for the 1934 fiscal year. This was an apparent reduction of U0, 000,000 from this year but 30,000,000 of this was accounted for by non recurring emergency construction. Principal Items. Among the principal items In the bill are: 39, 388.000 for rivers and harbors maintenance work, without specific allocations In the bill; (339, 484 tor Muscle Shoals: $18,863,000 for Mississippi river flcod control not spe cifically allocated; 11,100,000 for the Panama canal; $3,304,000 for the re serve officers' training corps; $36, 000,000 for the National Guard; $3.- $44,000 for West Point; $3,036,000 for seaooast defenses; $1,303,000 for chemloal warfare; $33,647,000 for the army air corps; $60,635,000 for the quartermaster corps and $138,105,000 for pay of the army. End C. M. T. C. Camps. Excluded from the bill was $1,000, 000 asked by the budget bureau for continuation of cltiuns' military training camps. In a statement, Chairman Collins of the appropria tions sub-committee, whtoh recom mended the suspension of O. M. T. O. activities, said: "The budget Includes $1,000,000 for this component, which would occa sion a reduction In the number of trslnees from 87,600 to 18,000. To effect this reduction would cause In justice and much more discrimina tion than at prasent." The measure also would permit Na tional Guard to motorize all field ar tillery regiments with light commer cial -vehicles, continue the officer strength of the army at 13,000 In stead of renewing last year's reject ed proposal of a reduction to 10.000, shorten the training period for mem bers of the reserve officers' training corps rrom 12 to so days and out re cruiting expenses In half, $3,000,000 for Plane. Likewise, It would allow the air eorps to make contracts for new plsnes to the extent of $3,000,000 tn addition to giving an outright ap propriation of $33,637,000 to that branch, Representative Collins (D., Mlse.) chairman of ths aub-commlttee, will fight again tor this elimination of the O. M. T. O., although a similar rec ommendation last session was defeat ed by the house after hectio debate. There war indications of another uproar this year, and the result, may be the same when the bill reaches the house floor. WASHINGTON, Jan. 18. (JPj Gen eral Douglas MacArthur, chief of staff rank the United States seventeenth In military strength of land forces among the nations of the world. Warning a house appropriations sub-oommlttee that "we are living In troublesome times," the army lesder said "practically all other nations are Increasing their strength" while the United States has reduced Its forces, Add Air Strength. Meanwhile, an advance In ttoe past year from fourth to third rank In the world's military air strength asserted for the United States by F. Trubee Davison, assistant secretary of war tor aviation. "World condition are unsettled and provocative," General MacArthur said in testifying before the commit tee which drafted the wr department supply bill tor the next fiscal year. "Many nations are passing through economic crises. The tense situation in the Par East which for some weeks during the past winter flamed Into open hostilities, emphasized again the untrustworthlness of treaties as com plete safeguards to International peace. Conference Failure. "The Geneva conference for nearly a year lias been studying formulae for effecting universal reductions In land armaments. The results to date have been practically negligible." MacArthur said the United States "has accomplished a degree of reduc tion lh its land forces that stands a unique example among world pow ers," and added; "These reductions leave the United States now the seventeenth ranking nation In military strength in the world. As practically all other na tions are Increasing their strength, It Is quite possible that In the near future the United States will drop even further In the relative list. Other Nations Arm. "It is apparent," he said, "that the larger nations are increasing their outlays for military preparedness." secretary Davison said "this coun try stands far and away first, as far as naval air strength Is concerned. "When we combined the army and navy together, we atand third in the rod i.v, whereas last year we stood fourth. isn we take simply the army air strength alone, as compared with tne land air strength of other pow- aione, we stsnd fourth this year as againat iirtn last year.
