THE CIVILIAN ARMY Organized Reserves—National Guard. BY LIEUT. STEPHEN F. TILLMAN. Col. Russell Langdon, adjutant of the 3rd Corps Area, had a brilliant record during the world war, and fol- lowed it with just as brilliant a rec- ord as an admin- istrative officer, since serving as adjutant of the corps area. He is vitally in- terested in the Reserve Corps, and has faithfully co-operated in the work to the end that this corps arca may be vlassed as No. 1 of the Army of to- morrow that has arrested his at- tention. - There will Li four meetings Seeh held during the coming week of the Organized Reserves, all meetings be. ing held in the Graham building, 14th and E strects northwest.

No announcement has been made relative to the candidacy of Delaficld for re-election to this oftic: In furtherance of shing's re. after the en. John J. Per- idea, modeled viss Zen army system. Brig. Gen. Bric Disque of the Re- serve Corps announces the opening of 4 country club camp for reserve at Blauvelt, two miles west of N. Y. The military-recreation ation’ at the camp is for the e of fitting the officers to be- come real leaders. An effort is being made to obtain the approval of the Secretary of War of the revision of the rexerve offi- cers' regulations so that they can be distributed in time for the summer training camps. It has sury to revise the regulati ply with section 38 of 2169, which it is believed will bec a law before the adjournment of Con- gress. This the provision t ries out the single commission idea for the Army of the United States. Under it pnal Guard offi- cers will be authorized to hold re- ®merve commissions as long as they are federally recognized. The regulations will contain three scparate parts or grand sectionx. Onc section will cover reserve officer: low the grade of general officers wii are serving in the ational Guard. The second section will cover those who are in the Rescrve Corps only ard the third section will he an! nounced later. Local reserve officers of the 313th Ficld Artillery and 320th Infantry are brushing up on their technical xtud- fes in preparation for the coming training period at Camp Meade, which will be held from August 1 to Au Col.

Col. J. Baer., U. 8. A., Instructor at the War College, are published in rrent issue of the Reserve Offi- cer, the official organ of the associa- tion. The plans Include a practice preparation for M-Day. to include completion of the training cadre and preparations to receive selective serv- fce men, as well as organization, ad- ministration and training of the com- pany. The mobilization will be held on September 12, the day schedbiled for the retirement of Gen. John J Pershing from the Army. The mobili- zation contemplated as a tribute to the work of the chief of staff in per- fecting the organization of the Army of the United States. A tentative distribution of funds of the War Department for the training of reserve officers for the fiscal year 1925 for the first time makes provi- sion for training by the chiefs of branches of the branch assignment reserve officers. The chief of ordnance contemplates holding two large camps and two smaller ones. From the funds available, it is be- lieved that approximately sixty re- serve officers living In the eastern part of the United States will take iwo weeks' training at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Md., from August 3 to August 17, The following second lieutenants have been attached to the 320th In- fantry: Philip W. Dimon, John H. Farrell, Frank A. Gould, Clarence Q. Graham, Lawrence P. Johnston, Wil- liam F. Murray, Everett M. Pershing, dgar F. Russell, Eugene B. Schild- hauer, Floyd M. Soule, Granger G. Sutton, Francis E. Teeling and Benja- min W. Thoron, all infantry officers. The militia bureau has adopted a policy of withdrawing federal recog- nition from all companies receiving a rating of “very unsatisfactory” on the annual armory inspection of last spring, unless the state authorities can show excellent reason why such action should not be taken. Those units with a rating of “unsatisfac- tory” will be placed on probation for a few months in the hope that their condition can be improved sufficiently to_justify continued expenditure of federal money for their maintenance. Due to the organization of higher headquarters, such as brigades and divisions, as well as to the fact that it is difficult to meintain National Guard units on a peace strength level, the days of a low rat < and enlisted men in that service are past. Beginning with a ratio of one fommissioned to thirty enlisted in 1918, the proportioned increased slow- 1y unti] it stood at onme to twenty- six by June 30, 1920. From that point, due to the organization of regimental headquarters, it rose rather sharply fo one to eighteen by the end of the ear 1921, B e ratio stood at the last-named fizure for an entire year. but since 1922, with the organization of bri- Fades | and division headquarters, Coupled with the dificulty of holding National Guard organizations at a greater strength than the mainte- nance strength level the proportion has risen until it now stands at one to feurteen. The militia bureau be- lieves that it is not likely to vary to any great extent from this point in the future. The following Regular Army offi- cers, who have been on duty with varjous units of the organized re- serves in this corps area have been or- dered to Camp Meade, Md., for duty during the training period, as instruc- tors in terrain exercises for the or- ganized reserves, June 20: Lieut.

Poxson. sales manager of the Dort Motor Car Company, has entered the controversy on the ques- tion of selling on the partial payment plan. This discus- sion was started recently by an at- tack on the practice made by J. H Tregoe, executive manager of the Na- tional Association of Credit Men, and has attracted widespread newspaper ccmment Mr. Poxson the newsp: of the pr: automobiles says: “[ h read in pers Mr. Tregoe's criticism ice of selling cars on time and the answer to made h Owen Reev of the Automobile Chamber of Commerce. 1 want to add my volce to Mr. Recves' in defense of the plan, 1t hux been under attack ever since it was o inated, and it is time the whole matter was threshed out. “In the first place. Mr. Tregoe's re. marks are probably based on the time-honored fallacy that the auto- mobile is a luxury. That attitude is as old as the automobile industry is. It used to be true, too, but it has been a myth for years. A luxury is something without which you can get along all right. You have only to watch any street for ten minutes to know how well we would get along without automobiles. If ‘the automo- bile is a luxury, «o are street cars and railways—yes, and so are bathrooms. “Mr. Tregoe savs, man <hould not buy an eredit—that he should save up until he can pay cash down for it F ness cimply fsn't done that way Auy 1 don’t know of any tha run on a They are all built 4 credit les. No one should Know this better than a eredit man. “Mr. Tregoe attacks the partial payment plan as not ‘entirely safe Tt is safe enouzh for the stronges and most conservative banks to place millions of dollars in open lines of credit at the disposal of the fAinance companies. Tt i safe enough for these samo. banks to lend m mil- lions on the car purchaser: note: = it is ‘not entirely economic What ean be more economically sound than the pure of a long-lived con- venience on terms that permit of its use while the payment being made? Homes and sewing machines and chen cabinets and furnaces and shing machin and stoves and a thousand other articles are bought this way. Then why this diserimi- nation against automoblles? Cer- tainly industry is as well served by note purchases of automobiles asby note purchases of other commodities. The main difference is that the car buyer takes his dividends in happi- ness and outdoor recreation as well as in dollars.” Mr. Poxson speaks on the subject with authority. He has an unusually broad knowledge of automobile sales problems and methods, fecting the manufacturer and dealers and distributors throughout the country. He has been an impor- tant factor in the Dort organization for vears and is recognized as one of the ‘leading sales executives in the business. automobile on these business 1 pot hasis, SRR R Unwise.
