BIG NAVY BILL COMES BEFORE SENATE TODAY Measure’s Passage to Mean Expenditure of More Than Billion. BY MARSHALL M'NEIL Timn Special Writer WASHINGTON, March 6.—The senate will vote this afternoon on the "big way" bill, which, if passed, will raise expenditures on the navy to more than roe billion dollars over the next few y*irs. Sponsored by the administration, although President Roosevelt has not formally asked Its passage, the measure is expected to be approved. If it is, the United States will be on the road toward creating its greatest fleet. The bill authorizes construction of enough ships and aircraft to bring our navy up to treaty strength, involving the. building of an aircraft carrier, 99,000 tons of destroyers. 35,530 tons of submarines and 2,184 airplanes. To Reach 51.125,000.000 Senator .James P. Pope <Dcm„ • Idahoi estimated that thus means probable expenditure of .$475,000,000 on ships and $95,000,000 on aircraft. “This,’’ he explained, ‘does not include, of course, allotment, of some $275,000,000 from PWA now being used by the navy department. And it does not include the amount of some $284,000,000 provided in the naval appropriations bill which passed the senate a few' days ago. "It appears that the total amount authorized in this bill, together with the PWA allotment and the naval appropriations bill will reach the huge sum of about $1,125,000,000 for our navy." Armament Race Opposed He, like some other Democratic and Republican Progressives, opposes the measure on the ground that while this large authorization is approved, the government is economizing on CWA, on veterans’ benefits, and pay of federal employes. Others pitch their opposition on the grounds that this is no time to enter into an armament race. But. while the bill was in the house, there were those who, because of the fairly general rumors of war, supported it for this very reason. House Amended Measure The house amended the measure with what pome senators say is an ambiguous attempt to curb limitation of profits of ship and aircraft builders. The senate has endeavored to clarify this provision and before the final vote tomorrow will try to force construction of at least half of the ships the bill authorizes in government navy yards. Before the vote comes tomorrow' at 4 p. m. Senator William E. Borah

Allen, believed to be the oldest practicing physician in the United States, today celebrated his hundredth birthday anniversary, still treating patients and "good for a few more years.” Still a commanding figure, the tall, slim physician rejected for service in the Union army in 1864 because of "poor health," today rounded out three-quarters of a century at his chosen profession. With a characteristic gesture, he stroked his silvery goatee as he related the history of six depressions. Os the most recent one he said, ‘The patient is beginning to get well.” Dr. Allen said that the reason for his longevity was that he always had been a total abstainer from tobacco and alcohol and had tried to lead the right kind of a life. Unj til two weeks ago Dr. Allen drove : his ow r n automobile about the city ! and made frequent excursions to nearby towns. For the last few months, however, he has been living in a hospital here.
