Thla vu utared Tharaday when
the hoaae passed tba naval appropria-
tion bill, amended to provide tor that
nambtr. The rota on the bill waa
171 to 73. Prior to tba final iota a
last effort to put through the 67,000
figure waa defeated. 221 to 111.
The bUl aa reported out by the ap-
propriation committee appropriated
funds for 67.000. _
The contention of the administration
waa that the reduction to 67.000 would
prevent thla country from maintaining
the fleet ratio provided by the naval
reduction treaty, and would put the
country in third place aa a naval
power.
The bill carries 1723.000.000 plua
fl7.89S.060 necessary to pay the 19,000
more men for which provision waa
mad# The estimates on the navy
department were for f42S.4S6.000. The
appropriation for 1923 waa $412,239.-
006 The reduction Is due to aban-
donment of the 1916 naval building
program and other economies made
poeeibie by the naval Hmttatkm treaty-
The bill provides for eighteen first
line battleships and necessary auxil-
iary craft. It sf'prrrprlates for 70,000
men ta the marine carps.
