Objection was made to the detail of officers to this branch who should they qualify in flying and be transferred, would be senior to some officers in the air arm who had been flying for a longer period, and difficulty was experienced immediately by the chief of Air Service in filllng up the Air Service shortage I commis- sioned personnel In commenting upon this situation, Maj. (®n. Mason M. Patrick, chief of Alr Service, summed up his position briefly as follows: “If an officer senior to any in the | Air Service transfers to that branch he soon learns to fly and is available for assignment. His seniority would necessitate his assignment over his juniors who had been in the Air Serv- ice and been flyers much longer. In general, this would be an Injustice to the present Air Service officers and, with a few exceptions, applications - transfer have been disapproved.” Knowing that their applications will be disapproved by the chlef of Air Service, officers of suitable efficiency perience do not submit their | applicaitons to the air arm, and under the operation of this policy, the up- building of the senior personnel of the air arm been stagnated for about ‘hree years. The hope has been expressed in the War Department that the Morrow air board of inquiry will recognize that this is not a good policy, and that its report will include recommendations | which will provide for a more liberal policy in building up the commission- | personnel of the air arm. There at present about 200 commiss: ancies in the Air Service. Sea-going Army officers of the med- ical department, as the result of a new Army transport policy which has Leen adopted by the Quartermaster Corps, will, in the future not be as- signed as transport surgeons. The inauguration of this policy, it was pointed out in the War Department { this weel, is due to the fact that there is such urgent need for Army medical officers ashore that those heretofore assigned as transport surgeons, will be relieved by some medical officer | making the trip as a passenger, who | will perform the transport surgeon | duties. The new arrangement has | alres been placed in effect, and the sea-going Army doctors have now settled down to a quiet life ashore. Announcement was made this week by The Adjutant General of the Army that on January 11-15, examinations of candidate for commission in the Medical Corps of the regular estab- lishment will be held at verious Army posts throughout the United States. The regulations governing the hold- ing of this examination prescribe that andidates must be mnot less than 22 and one-half nor more than 31 and one-half years of age, and they must have been graduated in medicine at some reputable medical college, and have had one vear's hospital experi- ence subsequent to graduation.
