CR0Z1ER IS Continued From Page One. fire of questions from committee' Up To Baker. ' General Crozier put the responsibility for the shortage squarely up to Secretary Baker, asserting that the secre

tary had taken a personal interest in the matter and ordered tests of various machine guns which resulted in the adoption of a new gun known as the Browning type. Other than to say that the committee was properly seeking information and that the Browning gun had been approved by a special board appointed for the purpose, Secretary Baker declined to comment on General Crozlers statements. A chance to modify the British Enfield rifle, which American private plants are equipped to make to use American ammunition, was assined by General Crozier as the reason for delay in supplying rifles to training camps. He said other types are now being sent to the cantonments. Questions Are Heated. General Crozier's examination went further into details of the riflo and machine gun situation. Several senators sharply questioned him in what were described "somewhat heated" exchanges. Some of the members were said to be inclined to attribute to General Crozier himself responsibility for the reduction of 50 nercent in rifle

production at private plants due to the change in type. Failure to use appropriations for

the purpose intended was also develop ed from General Crozier, in particular an appropriation of $5,000,000 made in August 1916 for small arms and intended , by Congress for rifles. General Crozier said this was used for pistols, some at high royalties from private contractors. General Crozier reiterated that rifle production will increase so that no American troops sent abroad will be without surplus arms and that soon there will be ample for training purposes.
