Congress May Increase Army to Three Million
Congressional chatter points to expanding the U S army to 3 000 000 men via the upcoming military appropriation bill. Advocates argue the move mirrors fighting sentiment and events in Europe with quotas expanding as France shifts. The bill currently totals about 8 000 000 000 dollars but could rise sharply if troop strength is raised, while replacement calls and the draft policy face renewed scrutiny over the law's spirit.

Officers From Men To Cat Home Ties
Officers from the First New Jersey and the Pitt New Jersey regiments, Cadmus and Battle, maintained ties as they served in Camp McClellan. Promotions in the medical department saw Lt. William J. Whelan rise to captain of the 112th Artillery, while Captain Walter L. Auten of Amity Park received an honorable discharge. Captain Auten's unit, the 114th Infantry, will likely see reassignment as training at Camp McClellan nears completion.
