START REVISION OF NAVAL DILL TO PEACE BASIS More Than Half of Estimated Expense Eliminated by Naval Ordnance Bureau. WASHINGTON. Nov. 20. Readjust

ment of departmental appropriations from a war to a peace basis was Begun today by Congress. The House naval committee took up revision of the naval bill for the next fiscal year and members were insistent that expenditures be held to the lowest possible minimum consistent with effective operation and upbuilding of the navy. As recommended by the Navy Department, the bill carries a total of $2,440,000,000, the estimate being made In the belief that the war would continue through next year. Rear Admiral Earle, chief of the Ordnance Bureau, who was before the committee today, said the department now is revising Its estimates and his bureau alone had eliminated more than half of the $400,000,000 calculated as necessary next .year under peace conditions. - Admiral Earle also revealed that einco hostilities ceased the Ordnance Bureau has c ancelled " contracts 'amounting to $?421,359,000, practically half of the amount appropriated for the bureau since the war began. Daniels Will Be Called. The hearing had to do with only onefifth of the estimates in the bill and, after the committee adjourned, members could not hazard a guess as to the final amount that will be recommended for the navy. Secretary Daniels will be called into conference tomorrow for discussion of the navy's needs and the committeemen hope to get a clearer Idea as to the size of the task before them in paring down estimates. 4 Representative Butler of Pennsylvania, ranking Republican member of the committee, who is expected to become chairman of the committee In the next congress, led today In demanding downward revision, but other members also insisted that now that hostilities have ceased, government expenses must be held down sharply. Mr. Butler criticised Admiral Earle's request for $53,000,000 for ordnance and ordnance stores next year, saying it was greater than the amount appropriated in wartime. He also voiced objection to the completion of the 112 "Eagle" boats at the Ford plant at Detroit. When asked whether Hnry Ford would lose, money if the contracts were canceled, Admiral Earle said Mr. Ford received no profit for the work. The plant, he said, was financed by the Navy Department JOINS THE LEGION OF ROYAL FLIEUS t if-- A Kx-Crand Duke Ferdinand.
