Civilian Army News Simultaneously with the demands rom the colleges for more Regular Army {nstructors, with which to es- ‘ablish new Reserve Officers’ Training ‘'orps units, an at- tempt is belng uade by Gen. Her- bert M. Lord, di- vector of the bud get, it {5 under- stood, to have the War Department naugurate pro- Tram under which + lurge number of units will be dis. ontinued. Under this program it 1 be necessary for the War De bartment to with- W regular in- ructors from the naller colleges und to reduce hem at the largor educational tions, At present the Regular Ar 1ty, numbering approximately 650 officers, on R. O. T. C. duty at the GEN. H. M. LORD. institu- chools and colleges throughout the | country, are training 120,000 students, of which 40,000 are attending high schools and §0,000 are in the colleges. The course of {nstruction in military sclence and tactics s highly recom- ended by the educators, and the | course is divided into 15 to 20 differ- | ent subjects. Prior to the war the course consisted of close order Infan- ¥ drill, more or less, and the expan- slon of this course In military sclence pointed out, is largely Tesponsible for the great popularity of this system of | military training which the Regular | Army instructors have inaugurated at | the various educational institutions Not only will this, one of the sev and tactics nce the armistice, it is | cral components of the Organized Re | be affected by this reduction | program, but a demand is also bein; made for cutting the Natlonal Guard to their allow- ances for armory drill and field train ng. The proposals for these cuts are ~o drastic that it will not only be im- possible for the War Department to| n’f‘\'flop the National Guard as | planned, but that it will seriously im- pair the efficiency of the several State forces. A crisis confronts not only the two junior components of the Army of the United States, but pro- | posals are being made which place 4 Hmit upon the activities of the Reg. | ular Army. Unless the supporters of | the reduction program are overruled, | it is recognized in the War Depart | ment that the entire military estab. | lishment will be placed back in its pre. | War status. If the Army of the| United States is not to suffer a seri Jus reduction, greater increases will have to be made in the budget as it | is now being framed. It will not take long for the news of this reduction PEOgram to spread among the $7.000- ofd resetve officers scattered through- | out the.country, and upen the con vening of Congress next December it isiexpected that she returning legis- lators will, as a result of the pressure | brought to bear on them by their Natlonal Guard and Reserve consti- tuencies, modify to a considerable ex tent the Budget Bureau's drastic re duction proposals for the maintenance of the military establishment. Due to the lack of funds, the 313th | Field Artillery unit camp, Col. Leroy | W. Herron, commanding, which was scheduled to be held at Fort Hoyle, | Md., during the early part of Sep. | tember, will not be held. The officers of this regiment will be trained dur. ing the $0th Division period at Carap | eade, Md., which will be held from | June 23 to July 1 | A change hgs beén made in Army regulations 148-5 with respect to the classes of Reserve officers. While the dutles to be performed by reserve of- | ficers require widely different quall. ficatlons, the two general classes are as follows: | The class of officérs for service with | troops includes all officers directly | concerned with the tactical handling| of combat troops. As-there is no vo-. | cation in civil life that fully fits any individual for this kind of duty. of- ficers appointed for this class of se ice must be qualified by military train. ing and experience. They must also he prepared, after appointment, to de- | Voté a reasonable amount of time to| military {nstruction and preparation for combat duty and to the perform-| ance of peace-time dutjes pertaining | to the organizations to which they | may be assigned. All officers of In tantry, Cavalry, Field Artillery and. ‘oast Artillery are in this class. | Officers of other branches of the| service are in this class only in case | of appointment for duty directly con- cerned with the- tactical handling of combat troops. For officers of this class military knowledge, leadership, tactical ability and physical endurance are necessary, in_ addition to the| qualities of moral fitness and general education required for all officers. It is not to be expected that new ap- pointees will be wholly proficlent in all the military detalls of thelr offices. ‘The standard for initial appointment | is that the appolntee should have the | requisite basic _qualifications pre- scribed by the War Department ard sufficlent ability to perfect himself in the duties of the grade and branch of the service to which appointed. In his subsequent service with his or- zanization and during the periods of active duty for training his progress will be verified, as well as his probable qualification for promotion. Over a score of names were added to the list of young men residing in the District of Columbia and vicinity this week who have indicated a de- sire to attend the approaching cit- izens' military training camps. As of May 26 a total of 239 young men n Washington and nearby. points had submitted their applications at Or- zanized Reserve headquarters in the Graham Building. The relative stand- ing of the citizens' military training camps procurement districts of the 3d Corps Area up to and including Just Three Words {of the | May is as follows: District of Columbla, Organized Reserves, au- thorized quota 154, has 239 applica- tions; - western Pennsylvania, 99th Diviston, quota 1,726, has 1,847 enroll- | ments; non-divisional group In cen tral Pennsylvania, quota 604, has 468 | appitcants; 80tk Division, Stats of Vir ginia, quota 816, has 614 applications; 79th Division, eastern Pennsylvania, has 1,011 applications out of & quota of 1,700; 62d Cavalry Division, State of Maryland, quota 600, has 348 ap- plications. In addition to the names which have been printed in The Sunday Star for the past several weeks, the foliow- ing young men residing {n Washing- ton and vicinity have flled their ap- plications for thelr attendance at the 1925 camp during the past week: | Percy H.

Roscoe Clayton and Edward York, both Infantry Reserve officers, are assigned to the 428th In- fantry. Under the provisions of para- graph 12-C, A. R. 140-10, Second Lieut. Daniel B. Lloyd, jr. Engineer Re serve, is assigned to the Nationa! Guard of the District of Columbla The committee of National Guard officers, one representing each corps area, appointed by the chief of the militia bureau, upon resolution adopt- ed by the last conference of adjutant generals of the United States, here May 22 and 23. While the action of this committee cannot be made public at this time, as it is still to be considered by higher authority, it may be unoffcially stated | that the committee was of the opinion that any attempt at a general revision or radical change in the national de- fense act would be inadvisable. as they considered that law, notwith- standing its minor inconsistencies, basically sound. The opinfon was held by the committee, however, that some action should be taken looking to a thorough study as to the future development of the various compo nents of the national defense, partic ularly pertaining to the organizatior and strength of each of those coris ponents to be maintained in time >f peace in order that the military forees of the country may be most efliciently and expeditiously expanded to meet our national needs in time of war, having In mind at the same time the avallabllity of adequate means for the maintenance of the peace-time forces. The. committee was further of the opinfon that should such study de- velop unanimous conclusions any phase under discussion, those con clusions should be submitted to the Secretary of War and Congress, with a view of furthering a stable develop- ment of the national defense. Col. J. Edward Caesidy, Chemical Warfare Reserve, will address the Chemical Warfare Reserve officers to morrow on two subjects, the first of which will be on the gas operations 1st Army Corps, Meuse-Ar gonne, fror: October 20 to November 4. 1918. s his second talk Col. Cas- sidy will #peak on the mission of re serve officers. Reserve quartermasters will hear a lecture Tuesday on the subject of me- chanical construction. Maj. R. P. Harbold, Q. M. C., will preside. Band practice will be held by the 343d En- gineer Band Wednesday, while Friday the 313th Field Artfllery will hold its assembly. Moving pictures of the 3-inch shrapnel 21.second time fuse, modern percussion fuses, and the 1 millimeter recoil system will be thrown en the screen. This will be followed by terrain board firing. The 496th Field Artillery, in con junction with the Field Artillery units | of the Pennsylvanla National Guard ‘will hold its unitcamp at Tobyhanna, Pa., trom August 16 to 30. The War Department will shortly iesue instructions to the corps arca and department commanders that. due to the fact that the tables of al- lowances do not provide for the issue of pillowcases, sheets and mattresses to members of the Officers’ Reserve Corps, and such allowances not being contemplated, reserve officers attend- ing the 1925 Summer training camps will have to provide themselves this equipment. Tt is estimated that this equipment will cost each reserve officer attend- ing camp an average of $8, which, when taking into consideration that about 20,000 reservists will undergo this training, will amount to about $160,000. STILL LOVES ACTRESS. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, May 30.—Telegraph- ing from Hollywood to a friend in this city, Robert Z. Leonard, recently di- vorced in Paris by Mae Murray, the motion picture star, denies the cabled statements alleged to have been made by Miss Murray that he had “treated her with disdain, was offensively cold and indifferent and- seized the slight- est pretext to overwhelm me with re- proaches.” “I regret her divorce action” he writes. I have always spoken of her in the highest terms.” Leonard denies any intention of marrying another woman. ‘‘She (Miss Murray) occuples a place in my life that no one could replace,” he said. Miss Murray is expected here on thé Paris, due Tuesday from Havre. About Tire Values Highest Quality—Goodyears! Low Price—Goodyears! Real Service—Goodyears! Buy Goodyears Now!

Scouts at the reser- vation will still be largely “on their own" as to shelter, program and food. but it is hoped that arrange. ments can be made whereby Scouts not wishing to Jdo their own. cooking may purchase meals at a moderate cost, providing sufficient notice before- hand is given.

Twenty Scouts did valiant service in stopping the progress of a danger. ous and persistent forest fire near the sanitarium at Takoma Park last Saturday. They were taken to the scene of the fire in machines, from Woodrow Wilson reservation, where they were spending the day, and were compelled to employ many of the arts of the forester before the fire was conquered.
