HALF MILLION AMERICANS ARE NOW IN FRANCE

United States Aims to Double Its Forces in France by July). , WASHINGTON. D. C. May American troops In Franco hay passed the half-million mark. Secretary of War Baker announced today. This announcement of the strength of Gen. Pershing' forces, the first official word Secretary Baker has spoken on the subject, was given out as proof that the prediction made earlier in the year by Mr. Baker had been fulfilled. Secretary Baker said: "In January I told the senate committee that the strong ltkllhood was

that early In the present year BOO.OOTTl

American troops would be dispatched to France. 't 'I cannot, either now -or perhaps later, discuss in detail the number of American troops in France, but I am glad to be able to say that the forecast I made In January has been passed." No New Prediction. Mr. Baker declined to make any predictions as to whether the million addition men he mentioned in his statement before the senate military conv mlttee also will be sent across the At. lantic this year. , When he appeared before the senate committee in January, Secretary Baker said the United State would have 600,000 men in France "early in 1918," and that there are 1,500,000 men in the training camps ready o go as soon as ships are available. While the secretary confined himself to announcing that his prediction had been made good and declined to make any further statement regarding the number of men on the other side, in process of crossing, or ready to sail, it is known that estimates of war department officials call for the follow.

lng future troops totals in France: Men

In France June 1 . , 800,000

In France July 1 1,000,000

Plan to send Million.

It is frankly stated that this Is only en estimate, based on the results

achieved in the new accelerated over

seas troop movement. No official would predict that this million total will be in France at the end of the present fiscal year, but this is the total the department is striving for. It has been no secret among newspaper men that the half million mark has been passed In sending troops to Franco. Officials have been pressed to give out the figures and head off the wild speculation fo optimists, who have been exaggerating the size of the overseas force, and the gloomy views of others who underestimated . the strength of Gen. Pershing's force. With the growth of the overseas army it was indicated they will be more publicity in future as to numbers. -. No Machine Gun Lack. As a result of a personal investigation of machine gun production during the last few days the secretary announced that there is no present shortage of IJght or heavy types of these weapons either in France or America, and no shortage is in prospect. Mr. Baker said there had been np

question brought up as to the supplies of light type Browning guns, which

were coming forward in quantities

He would not say whether shipment

of these guns to France had been started. As to the heavy Brownings

he said:

, "Early manufacturers' estimates as

to the production of the heavy type perhaps were more optimistic than was Justified. The estimate of the ordinance department in January has

been met and is being met. Some of

these heavy guns have been produced and there is every indication of forthcoming production in increasing and substantial numbers."
