Harding presses army strength debate in White House talks
President Harding met with House Army appropriations subcommittee members after a talk with General Pershing. The panel had tentatively proposed cutting enlisted strength from 130000 to 115000 next year, while the administration outlined a policy for a force of no less than 120000. Pershing reportedly urged against a further cut, stressing the 1920 policy and postwar plans to merge regulars, national guard, and reserves.
