Plan for Ulld Defense Approved by President
Washington Oct 16 President Wilton approved Secretary Garrison's plan to expand the army. It calls for an annual expediture of 3132,000,000 with about 75,000,000 more for coast defenses and field artillery. The proposal may raise total defense outlays to around 432,000,000 but likely remains under 100,000,0000. The plan envisions 30,000 to 60,000 more soldiers, a large reserve, and expanded National Guard ties. It would also boost National Guard officers and utilize the Military Academy at West Point for officer training.
