Defense fund battle ends without boost to aviation aid
Washington reports that after two days of debate the House approved an army appropriation bill for the coming year totaling 900 000. Advocates for immediate military strengthening failed to persuade leaders of either party and a motion to add 1 000 000 for aviation was defeated 243 to 34. The bill funds army maintenance, with 300 000 for 25 aeroplanes and 50 000 for an armored motor car, and raises field artillery funds to 170 000 from 25 000.
