Maj. Gen. Hagood, commander of the Seventh Corps area at Fort Omaha, told a Knife and Fork Club audience in Kansas City that the U S Army is top heavy and wasteful. He urged reducing bureaus and merging army and navy into a single defense department with separate land sea and air forces. He argued for trimming deficits and a shift from a three year regular army model to a ten day draft replacement, saying the army is over staffed with officers clerks and orderlies.
