RV LAWRENCE SULLIVAN I/nitefl Pr*•.* Staff ( orr* a ponde nt WASHINGTON, July 23-Presi-dent Herbert Hoover moved vigorously today to cheek the mounting burden of military expenditures of the United States government, and to remind the world anew, on the eve of the ceremonies proclaiming the Kellogg-Briand pact for the renunciation of war, of the progress of peace-m urine diplomacy during the last decade. Aroused by his findings from a study of prospective budget expenditures that tire United States military program by 1933 will call for the largo ’ war budget, of any country in the world, the President announced hi: plan to establish a special commi sinn within the army general stafl to reconsider the entire army program.

Her* i* th* third. n<t Sr >< tier S> ri hr WASHINGTON, July 23.—1f the dispute in Manchuria results in a war which restricts the foreign trade of that country, the farmers ;of she United States will be cut off from a very valuable source of supply for fertilizer and fodder for cattle. In 1927. our imports from Manchuria amounted to about six and a half million dollars. The most important single commodity sent to the United States is soya beans. Our annual import of these beans and : their products amounts to over two and a half million dollars. More than fifty-six million pounds of soya bean meal comes into this country each year. The oil pressed from the soya bean has recently become an important rival of cotton-seed and peanut oils in the manufacture of food products. It also finds many other uses in this country. It is mixed with other fodder for rattle, and is used for lighting and lubricating. Among the many and varied products into which this versatile oil goes are paints and varnishes, soap, linoleum, rubber ; substitutes and explosivesThe oil cake and the meal made from it are rich in protein, as the soya bean is 36 per cent protein, considerably richer than the garden pea. which contains only 25 per cent. The meal is therefore very valuable as a fertilizer as well as a food fog both man and beast. It is also very cheap even after importation, for the price in Manchuria is j only about 2 cents a pound.

DRY SHOOTINGS BRING QUIZ OF JOB SEEKERS U. S. Investigates Past of Candidates for Agent Posts. ■ Bu Srrinnt-ftoiriirrl S errspanrr Alliance WASHINGTON. July 23—The administration's concern over the increasing number of shooting affrays participated in by prohibition agents and customs officials has resulted in unusual precautions being taken to weed out undesirables from the government service. The civil service commission now has a force of seventy-five special i investigators in the field making a careful checkup of each of some 3,000 men who have passed the written portions of the examinations i for prohibition agents. All of the investigators, most of whom have been taken on temporarily for the checkup, have been given instructions to pay special attention to whether the person under investigation has ever been arrested or suspected of being involved in any shooting affray. Several hundred of those who passed the written portion of the examination for prohibition agents have already been placed on the government pay roll. Officials of the civil service commission said today, however, that none of them would be given a permanent status until ; the special investigators have comj plcted checked up their past. At j least six months is expected to be required. As rapidly as it is ascertained that any of the men now temporarily assigned to the prohibition bureau have past records which would unfit them for service they will be ordered dropped from the service. Congress last session appropriated $1,719,000 for additional prohibition agents and James M. Doran, prohibition commissioner, plans to employ 270 more agents and 100 special investigators. As soon as the civil service commission completes its inquiry it will ] turn its attention to making a simi- : lar checkup on customs agents and j on applicants for positions in that 1 service, provided adequate funds for making the examination are available.
