(By International News Service,)
WASHINGTON, May 31.—The army
posts of the West are to be aban
doned in the event that Congress
{passes legislation embodying the rec
ommendations of the War Depart
ment, General Peyton C. March an
nounced at his weekly conference to
day. A very few of these posts would
be retained, he stated, but only as
‘hospitals where men in the service
whosec physical condition demanded
high altitudes could be sent. }
Elaborating on his recent testimony |
before the House military affairs com.
mittee, General March stated that it
was the plan of the department to
have skeletonized divisions sta(!onvd|
at those cantonments which are to be
retained and to recruit men from the
y Mdeirity of each camp. {
Emergency Provision. y
Those skeletonized divisions, he
said, would be filled to war strength
in the event of an emergency by
drawing upon men who will have re
ceived training under any plan Con
gress may authorize. Drill and
maneuvers would be held in division
formation at stated intervals, and for
every five divisions there would be a|
gorps commander and once a Yyear|
there would be corps maneuvers
The old Hay-Chamberlain, bill is
entirely inadéquate for the present
reeds of the army, General March
stutea. This measure provides for
only 175,000 combatant trocps, which,
with the other branches, would bring
the total to ¢nly about 230,000. Be
sides. there are no provisions for the
sranches that have been added since
the war, such as aviation, tank
corps, traffic, ete. Incidentally, Gen
eral March stated that the general
staff has added aviation as the fourth
arm of the military service. Hereto
fore. only three arms—infantry, cav
alry and artillery—were recognized.

from France during May, exclusive of

three dead and two injured at 260 miles, half the distance of the

most grim since the famous track was given a brick surface.. The

a chance. Again, the four-cylinder
