ARMY COST IN ’41

PUT AT

Stimson and Johnson Urge Funds Be Released for Planes And Tanks as Pledge Is Made Not to Draft Dependents in Peace Time.

WASHINGTON, July 24

told a House Committee today, total defense program for the Army, including compulsory registration to start within five weeks, will cost $6,000,000,-

000 next year.

That figure is $1,200,000,000 more than is contemplated

in the present $4,818,000,000 “total” defense bill now before the House Deficiency Appropriation’s Committee. Additional requests, however, may not be necessary for sev-

eral months, it was indicated.

In connection with the compulsory military training plan, Brig. Gen. William E. Sheed, Assistant Chief of Staff, told Congress that “never in time of peace” will the Army draft men with dependents.” He urged the House Military Affairs Committee to leave to the

War Department the power over ex- | American nations adopt stricter

emption details Revelation of the expanded program for the Army came as Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson, Assistant Secretary of War Louis Johnson and high ranking Army officers asked the Committee to approve immediately the Army's approximately $3.800,000.000 share in the “total” defense bill Most of that money will be used for mechanization (tanks) and for 15,000 more planes for the air corps.

Debate Draft Bill Next Week

Some of these funds also are due to be used for starting the machinery for carrying out America's first peacetime conscription act. That act has not been approved but

measures to obtain observation of the security zone declaration. Great interest centered in the

meeting of Mr. Hull's committee because of Argentina's threat to block the United States-sponsored plan under which the 21 American republics would establish a “collective trusteeship’ ‘over European possessions in the Western Hemisphere to prevent march of totalitarianism into the new world. The committee of which Mr. Hull is chairman includes representatives of Brazil, Venezuela, Panama, Ecuador and Paraguay. His plan would establish a threenation commission to govern Dutch and French possessions in this hemisphere until such time as they can

Marshall said that he would liRe at| least one month in which to register | men for this duty. Subject to Congressional enactment, the Army tentatively has recommended Sept. 1 as the start of registration of men from 21 to 31 years for active military training.

Seek Million Men at Start

This program, it was understood, is designed to provide a fullyequipped initial protective force of 1000000 men with 500.000 equally well-trained reserves. This Army would be maintained constantly, according to one version of the plan. Jt is military establishment that would cost $6,000,000,000 to set up. To round out this force, the Army plans to call up 400,000 more conscripts next April, or earlier, and another 600,000 by October 1941. Their pay would be $21 a month. Mr. Stimson’'s appearance before the House Committee was his first | since his confirmation by the Senate.

It was expected that there would be complete unity over proposals for economic co-operation and effective means to combat subversive

Principal points in the “collective trusteeship” plan include: In view of the possibility of a change in status of European possessions in the Americas, the American republics reaffirm the necessity of not recognizing any conquests by force in this hemisphere, and transpossessions directly or will not be recognized. The American republics reserve the right to judge if any change in the political status of European possessors as of Sept. 1, 1939, affects

This shows that the President is thinking of some other things besides the state of the nation.” In a hot basement room, Mr. Willkie took off his coat last night and | hoarsely shouted that “We want no more phrases coined by braintrusters and delivered in melodious voices. The Government belongs to the poeple and we are going to take it back.” He appealed to both Democrats and independent voters to line up behind him and exterminate the “machines” of Kelly-Nash in Chicago, Frank Hague in New Jersey, boss Ed Crump in Memphis and Tom Pendergast in Kansas City. The Republican Party, he said, is in pew and youthful hands which propose to “build an economic machine which will function.” Mr. Willkie recalled that he had once worked in Cody, Wyo., on an alfalfa ranch and later had driven a “six or eight” horse team in Yellowstone Park. “I come back here on another venture and in the same spirit of youth,” he said. He named some of the younger party leaders on whom he apparently will rely if he is elected in November—National G. O. P. Chairman Joe Martin, House minority leader; Rep. Charles Halleck of Indiana, who nominated him at the Philadelphia convention; Governor Ralph Carr of Colorado, who seconded his nomination; Governor Ray Baldwin of Connecticut; Governor Nels Smith of Wyoming; Rep. Frank Horton of Wyoming, and several others. “After I'm elected, I'll build no political machines to dominate the will of the people,” Mr. Willkie said. “This is not a campaign. It's a crusade.”

11 NAZI RAIDERS ARE SHOT DOWN

Vessels Sunk During _ 100-Plane Fight.

(Continued from Page One)

Australian destroyer and a British submarine int the Mediterranean and Fascist planes had started big fires at the island of Malta. In the Americas, the United States appeared to be facing Argentine opposition in plans for establishing a trusteeship over the American possessions of conquered European countries, if such action is necessary to prevent foreign interference. The plan, submitted by Secretary of State Cordell Hull, may provide for a three-nation commission to administer such possessions until they may be declared independent or restored to their former owners— France or the Netherlands. Coincidentally with the American conference to bolster an economic and political solid front, Germany pressed plans for keeping peace and| encouraging production of food and war materials in the Balkans to offset the British naval blockade. The government leaders of Rumania and Bulgaria were called to Germany for conferences with Nazi Foreign Minister Joachim von Ribbentrop, possibly in connection with Bulgaria's demands for recovery of the South Doburdja territory from Rumania.

Russia Still in Picture dispatches

The intense German interest in| the Balkan nations-—which are essential sources of war supply for the Reich—again raised but did not answer the question of whether Hitler and Josef V. Stalin were working in close agreement in the southeast of Europe or whether their interests might yet create a cause for friction. Meanwhile, thirty members of the staff of the Russian trade delegation to London will leave for Moscow with their families next week, it was learned today. Russian sources said that the withdrawal | was due to the absence of British [proposals for Anglo-Russian trade since Josef Stalin told Sir Stafford Cripps, British Ambassador to Moscow, on July 1 that Russia was willing to negotiate a trade pact.

23 Face French Court-Martial

At Vichy, a sweeping decree confiscating fortunes and property of Frenchmen who fled France at the time of the army's collapse, including former Cabinet members and deputies and senators, was published today by Marshal Philippe Petain's government in the official journal. The decree, which also withdraws

left France between Mgy 10 and June 30 without orders or valid permission, names 23 ex-ministers and parliamentarians. Members of the last war Cabinet named in what may be the prelude to a purge included Georges Mandel, former Minister of the Interior; Caesar Campinchi, ex-Minister of the Navy; Edouard Daladier, Premier when war broke out, and Yvonne Delbos, former Education Minister. In some cases provision is made for trial by courts-martial, especially of members of the Government or Parliament who left the country at a time when they had been mobilized into the armed services. The closely controlled French press appealed to Germany today fo aid through the coming winter and called upon the French people to maintain a “loyal attitude” toward their conquerors.

Today's War

Chancellor Hitler's attention from Britain, while the zero hour for

premiers and foreign ministers of uncertainty that hangs over the Balkans with Russia's wavering policy disconcerting Germanys arrangements, Hitler's call to the representaof Rumania and Bulgaria follows the annexation of the three Baltic republics by Russia and reports that Stalin is interested in fomenting the establishment of a Communist government in Rumania.

Both the Rumanian and the Bulgarian governments are antagonistic

to the spread of Russian annexation ambitions in the Balkans. That is their only common meeting ground for an amicable discussion.

Bulgaria wants to regain her former province of Dobruja annexetli by Rumania after the last war but the Rumanians have threatened to declare war rather than give up the territory. The Salzburg conference undoubtedly will take up this delicate question which might set the Balkans aflame in the midst of a German blitzkrieg against Great Britain.

Hitler has a powerful argument to use against a Balkan war. He can demonstrate to Rumania and Bulgaria that if they start fighting they will be giving an invitation to Rus< sia to intervene in Balkan affairs for the purpose of expanding her own territorial acquisitions. The Rumanians and the Bulgars thus might lose in the end to Stalin. Such an explanation of the realities, however, will force Hitler to display to the Rumanian and Bulgarian Governments an anti-Rus-sian attitude. By using the Russian bogey to frighten Rumania and Bulgaria, Hitler must risk placing Germany’s relations with Russia on delicate ground. Nevertheless, events in southeastern Europe have recently been developing so antagonistically to German and Italian basic interests that Hitler finds himself in a corner. He cannot afford to see a Balkan war at this time, and he may well decide that it is less precarious to allow Russo-German relations to become somewhat cool rather than fail to check hostilities among the little southeastern nations. Yet Hitler understands there. is no easy way out. Bulgaria is a Slav country and while not desiring to see Russian Communism expand,
