IffiDFOR THE TREMENDOUS
EFFORT. SAYS WAR SECRETARY
Replying to Senator Chamberlain
Baker Says It it Impossible
There Should Not Be Delay
. and Shortcomings in So Great
An Undertaking.
IMPATIENCE IS THE
CAUSE OF CRITICISM
Says American People Are Too
Impatient "to Do This Great
Thing Quickly" One Million
Men Under Arm in This Coun
try Right Now, He Declares.
Washington, Jan. 28. Secre-'
tary Baker in a long, personal :
statement today before the sen- I
ate military committee replied to '
Senator Chamberlain's charges of
inefficiency and a breakdown in j
the war department. j
Without prepared manuscript ;
and in a frank, conversational
manner, the secretary of war told !
the senators he came to defend no ;
mistake or shortcomings, but to
insist most emphatically that de
ficiencies where disclosed had
promptly been remedied ; that
they were the exception rather
than the rule and that the very
magnitude of America's under
taking made errors of judgment j
and mistakes likely.
Incidentally, in defending the
war machinery against the charge
of inefficiency and lack of initia
tive to prepar for war when war
was assured the secretary disclos
ed some facts hitherto held confi
dential
France and Great Britain, he said, are ,
nupplying rttllery . tfl Uk- American j
force becauac they have an exeen and
because it will savo ahlpn.
Thirty-two divisions of National guard
and National army troops in camp in
the United State more than l,000.fKM)
men in all are considered ready to go
otenteaa for service whenever it is de
cided they shall move.
F'very American who uses a ride al
ready linn been nrovided with one and
the rate of manufacture MureS a steafly j
aupply as troops become ready to use j
them. !
Great Britain and France, he said, i
are prepared to furnish machine guns j
for the land forces until the American
supplies arrive and, in fact, wish to do i
so.
Washiiifrton, Jan- '28-. Secretary Ra- j
ker today replied o Senator Chamber
Iain's charges of inefficiency in the war .
department at a public hearing before
the Kenate military committee. The '
secretary began mnking a verbal state-
ment without manuscript. I
Mr. Baker said hi statement was 1
not exactly mipplementary to his re- j
eent one to the cortimittee but a com-,
prehensive statement on all army no-
tivities in the war especially replying j
to the charges that the war depart
ment had "falen down."
At the outset, the secretary said, he
though much criticism came from im
patience of the American people "to do
this great thing quickly."
He conceded freely that in so great
an enterprise It was impossible that
there should not be "delays and short
comings." The confidence of the coun
try, however, he said," was necessary to
the tremendous effort.
. That - there are more than a million
men under arms in this country was
stated by Secretary Baker in" referring
to the cases of alleged neglect of the
dead in camps cltied by Senator Cham
berlain. '
Major-General Wood, Mr. Baker said,
recommended calling out large army.i
although the men could not be provided
at once With rifle and clothing.
Every soldier who "needs a rifle, has
one and of a better type, than if the
British Enfield rifle had been adopted.
. . Defending the lack of Lewis machine
guns Secretary Baker reiterated that
General Pershing doe not want Lewi
guns for ground forces but only for avia
tion. Declaring that by securing artillery
from France Mr.' Baker said it would
also Bave ahipa. ,
"I am telling, no' secret when I Ray
,. that ships are the ery of our problem,"
lie said. ' .' ..
; Secretary Baker said all foreign rep
resentatives and "also the war council
participants headed by Colonel ' j House

State Food Administration Makes
the Announcement-Flour Also 1
Due to Descend. j
Ivalegh. dan. -S. (Special. I Not-
withstanding the fact that the food ad j
ministration has frankly and readily
granted a few merchants permission to
sell flour on hand at more than $12. jI) i
prr barrel and sugar at more than 10c a
pound where they have shown that tin1
delivered cost ot the product lias ap-
proached the figures sent, a further re- j
iluetion in sugar is announced as a cer
tainty and as till further cut in the)
maximum price of flour is intimated as j
a possibility.
As a result of complaints from mcr-1
chants who have paid very nearly the'
maximum retail price for their flour 1
and sugar the food administration has!
taken up with the Washington author
ities the matter of prices charged by a
number of flour mills outside of North
Carolina and is also investigating what
appears to be unreasonabl charges for
sugar by a number of dealers outside
the state.
A food administration official stated
today that in only one instance has a
Xorfh Carolina jobber Ven found who
recently charged more than the margin
allowed him on sugar. In this instance
the case was due to a delay in the in
voice and was altogether exeunable.
especially as the merchant very
promptly refunded to retailers his
profit in excess of the margin allowed.
In very few instances have North Caro
lina jobbers been found to have ex
ceded the margin of 50c a barrel allow
ed them for the handling of flour.
