The appropriations for preparedness
as they now stand are a« follows:
Army. $313,970,447.10
Navy. >315.826.843 56.
Fortifications, $26,748,050
Military academy. $2,328,328-57.

Relief for Guardsmen.
As It passed the senate the army bill
exceeded the appropriations made by
the house by more than $131,000,000.
In the final hours of debate on the
measure the senate agreed to an ap-
propriation of $2,000,000 for relief of
dependent families of national guards-

the Mexican emergency. Distribution
of the fund is left to the discretion of
