ARMY AND NAVY
APPROPRIATION,
TO BE SLASHED
ONLY FEW CIVIL-
GASES WERE TRIED
Congressional Committee Ex
, pectjd to Cut $1,464,000,-
- ' . 000 Estimate
: RECALL THE WAR , WASTE
Washington, D.' C., Oct27.-y
: ' There is hard sledding ahead for the
'estimates of th Democratic Admin
istration for maintaining the military
establishment because of the disclos
ures Ynadejof Democratic waste and
extravagance. , " " -
.; When the army , and navy esti
mates -trailing for nearly $1,500,000
were made public today, Republican
members of both the Military - and
Naval committees - declared " every
ithem would be carefully ? scanned
, It was stated that "the programme
of waste- and v extravagance that
characterized the administration of
public affairs by-the War Depart
Mnent "in .the'; last three s -years has
'jeopardized , the proper maintenance
.' of the military establishment in the
futuri.?i
. The estimates disclose that for. the
peace time maintenance of the na
tional defence a total of $1,464,000,
000 will be asked of. Congress. This
enormous total, which suggests some
of the larger, estimates, submitted
when America was an actual partlclt
' pant in the world war,' does not in
elude sums which the departments
will asky later, as deficiency appro
priations. , f v-"'-.
The navy estimates are ' about
$650,000,000, and - the . army . figure
runs up to $814,000,000,' or nearly
as much as it- used to cost to run
the entire government in the pre-war
period. '' '"'"' . ,
, The complete text of the projects
contemplated by the War ' Depart
ment has not yet been made public,
but undoubtedly 'there "are -many
meritorious policies included in the
list. These are lively, however ,"fce
have very hard going when they tun
the gauntlet of the Congressional
committees.
.Racall Airplane Waste
The committee, and indeed th
entire membership ,of Congress,
never ' have been able to recover
. from the shock they received wheri
total of about 11,000,000,000 was
practically wasted and thrown to
the, winds in the endeavor to produce
aeroplanes as a part of the world war
programme. Gen. Menoher, head of
the Air. Service, in. talking about his
' experiences abroad recently, recall
ed that he used to "scan the air daily
for billion dollar airplanes from
America that never came."
But that is only one instance that
comes to the mindi of committee
members whenever an ett!mate from
the War Depirtment is presented.
The vice of the,"'coiit plus" system
of lotting constru2tion contracts,
which the War Department initiated
and employed for many months early
. in the war, cast a stigma of sus
picion over requetta for appropria
tions, and forces committees in both
partlei to demand exhstutive analy
sis of every item Ji appropriation
bills before they will approve them.
The "cost-plus" system put a pre
tium on hirM i ' ost of construction
simply hence the contractsr made
jore r-ry in proportion to the
Money he (pe.it As the rwlt of this i
nvi; t j4tions show thfat in the, build-'
lng of training camp, cantonments
and emergency quarters of various
sorts there was a r.fct orgy rf
" vercharg'ng far -.la'wr, materisls
and everything e.ite:ing Into the bill
which ultimately the taxpayers had
to pay.," . , V
The War .Department abandoned
this system after' the evils of it had
reached the. ears of Cong reumen,
but by that time the harm was done
. and It was too late It do more than
-check -the -riot of expenditure 1n
other phases of the war programme.
