PAGE EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 28, 1939. FINANCE DEFENSE IS EXPECTATION Congress Will Be Asked For Record Sum Navy In crease May Spur Talks By H. R. Ingraham. Washington, Dec. 28. (Pi- Congress will be asked to ap prove another record-breaking fund for national defense at the coming session, and indications today are that it will accede without much of a fight. Congressmen with military Ideas of their own, however, may provoke greater contro versy than the outlay of more than $2,000,000,000 which Presi dent Roosevelt has said he would recommend to finance the army and navy for the year starting July 1. Navy Main Iiiut. Before the new session It a week old, two house committees will study proposals designed to make the navy the mightiest armada the world has ever seen. Both are likely to provide for ums for proponents of super battleships, possibly twice as big as any now afloat. Chairman Vinson (D.-G.) set January 8 tentatively for the house naval committee to be gin public hearings on a pro posed $1,300,000,000 expansion of the navy. This would pro vide for 95 new warships, 31 auxiliary vessels and 2.3R5 addi tional airplanes. Rep. Maas (R.-Mlnn.), senior minority member of the com mittee, said he would urge at the hearing the establishment of AMERICAN HOY MAGAZINE COMPANION TO THOUSANDS Hundreds of thousand! of boys and foung men read THE AMERICAN BOY Magazine every montb and con sider It more aa a living companion than aa a magazine.

The dance, which will be held Saturday night In the temple, will be featured by the usual favors. a separate fleet for the Atlantic and for construction of bigger battleships up to 80,000 tons each in contrast to the 35.000 tonners now the navy's largest Talk Super-Ships. Even before the expansion program comes up, the house naval appropriations sub-com mittee will be working behind closed doors on the navy's bud get estimates for the next fis cal year. The group already has asked the navy to furnish data on the cost of building 69,000-ton battleships. Although Mr. Roosevelt was reported authoritatively to have slashed about $700,000,000 from the estimates of both the army and navy, there were indica tions that the total would be at least $300,000,000 and pos sibly $500,000,000 above the current year's peacetime record of about $1,800,000,000. .Never theless, Democrats and Repub licans have shown little disposi tion to quibble over money spent for defense, Relief Paramount. An indication of the congres sional attitude came from mem bers of a house appropriations sub-committee, who said that with minor exceptions they re cently had approved Mr. Roose velt's request for $270,000,000 to take care of expenses incur red when he ordered increases in the army and navy, estab lished the neutrality patrol and stepped up the Justice depart ment's activities against sabot age and espionage. Defense measures will not have entirely plain sailing, how ever, for some members in both senate and house have served notice that they would fight proposals to expand the armed services if It meant reductions in relief funds or other bene fits for the needy. Republican leaders also have made it plain that they do not intend to support lump-sum spending in the guise of defense. Rear-Admiral Diet. New York, Dec. 28. OP) Rear-Admiral Julius C.

PIERCE PREDICTS BITTER FIGHT ON Oregon Congressman Hopes For Adjustments on West ern Products Competition Washington, Dec. 28. OP) Rep. Walter M. Pierce, the lone Democrat' in Oregon's congres sional delegation, predicted a bitter fight today on the ad ministration's reciprocal trade agreement program. The congressman, discussing the approaching congressional session, expressed the hope the budget bureau would not cut reclamation and irrigation funds. Adjustmenti Needed "I am very anxious that some adjustment be made of the trade agreements as far as ap ples, pears, lumber, livestock, poultry and other of our pro ducts are concerned," he said. "We in Oregon feel we are be ing hurt, shipments of fruit from South American countries which formerly were sent to Great Britain are now en route to New York and we feel they will hurt our fruit industry. "Thpre is much agitation in my state against the lumber sec tions of the Canadian agree ment. Canadian money has de preciated and this accentuates tile situation because importers can take advantage of it in buy ing Canadian lumber." The former Oregon governor said he could see no reason for slicing reclamation project ap propriations. "The money for these projects does not come out of the gen eral funds but from a special fund created for the reclama tion bureau," he explained. Pierce said Oregon farmers were anxious that the govern ment continue the farm pro gram and allot again this year $500,000,000 for soil conservation.
