. At the fifth annual convention of the Reserve Officers’ Agsoctation of the United States, which concluded its sessions last week a¢ Norfolk, Va. ! Brig. Gen. Roy Hoffman of Oklahopm: City, Okla., re-elected n- feation. The con vention also re- elected Col. E. A, Harriman of ‘ashington, D.C., as treagurer. Oth’ er national officers elected were the following corps area vice presi dents: 1st, Col. ¥rank Knox,Man- chester, o 2nd, Lt. Col. Car- roll Badeau, @beth, N. J.: 3rd. Col. Theodore la Brig.

Tuttle, San Antonio, Tex.. 9th. Col. Perry W. Weidner, Los Angeles, Calif. The at- tendance at this vear's convention was considerably smaller than that at previous annual gatherings of the as. sociation, the nd Corps Area being the only corps area group having a full delegation. The convention. as nally planned contemplated a three-day sessipn. but it was found ble to conclude the work of the vention at ths close of the second as brought up the subject of the creation in the War Depart ment of a bureau to have charge of the affairs of the Officers’ Rese Corps, something akin to the Militia Rureau. and 1o which attention would be given to Reserve personnel, equip ment. training. ete. In his annual veport to the convention Gen. Hoff man peinted out that he was “con- vinced that if the citizen component of our Army Is to obtain its proper place in our plane of national defense. it must have organization, with a defi- nite and responsible head.” Gen. Hoff- man expressed the opinion that un derlying all of the many difficulties facing the development of the Organ ized Reserves, the fundamental change necessary at this time is the heading of the Reserve project in the War Department under one responsi- ble officer, and, after giving careful thought to this problem, is convinced that the most logical solution Is to have the Reserve project headed by the Assistant Sccretarv of War, Col Hanford MacNider. Ultimately, it is Toped. legislation will he passed pro- viding for an assistant secretary of war whose special duty will be to han- die Reserve affairs exclusively. but in order to avold delay, this eritical situ- tion may be met by elothing the pres ent Assistant Secretary of War with this authority. With this change, the placing of a number af Reserve offi cers on continuous active duty in the office of the Assistant Secretarv of | War was advocated by Gen. Hoffman. The elimination of unsuitable re serve officers was also urged by Ge! Hoffman. in which advecacy there is | no question that the entire organ {red reserve structure is solldly be hind him. There is no doubt that something tangible will result from this, as there is a growing feeling throughout the Reserves that those Reserve officers who take no interest either in the active duty training or the inactive duty instruction through- | out the Fall and Winter months | should not hold a Reserve commis alon. At the 1925 annual conven tlon of the association, held in Kan sas City, the War Department was requested by the associat | suitable actfon in the ma i officers of the association have heen | active in presenting these views to | the War Department. The principal resoluticn adopted by | the convention was that dealing with | the co-ordination of Reserve activities, and after a lensthv disenssion of the | advisability of iicing the direction | serve activities in the general the offices of the Secretary of n that of the As: War, decis 1y made by ihe convention to pla the whole question In the hands of | the officers of the association for con ference by them with the W partment. Another important tion passed by the convention was that calling on the War Depariment n to take general staff to make a new study of the advisability of abolishing the dual | status _commiss now given Na tional Guard officers. the general fee ing among the delegates at the con vention being that the Guard com-! mission in the Army of the United | States should not be in tha Officers’ Reserve ('orps | Other rerolutions advocated were | a definite policy of assigning at least 10 Regular Army officers to the gen- | eral &taff. with a minimum of two | Vears previous duty with the Reserves; | that commanders of Reserve units he eneouraged to have apathetie urflcarnl relieved of assignment; that the Alrl | Nervice be developed, but not at the expense of other branches of the serv jee. urged Congress to adopt legis lation retiring disabled amergenc. { ficers on the same StAtus as regular officers; that appropriations be in creased for the maintenance and de- | Velopment of the Organized Reserves faiored an aneual defense test on November 11: urged that there be a 20 per cent vearly increase for nu-l | | i Tears in appropriations for Reserve Mvers (o attand Army schools: urged | 1hat the United States reject the Gensva gas protocol for the controi of sas warfare, as well as a strong yiea for more adequate appropriations , for the reguiar establishment { The following changes n the as <ignments of Reserve officers residing | n the District of Columbia were an-| nounced last week by Organized Re-| serve headquarters: First Lieut.
