ARMY. Though it cannot be estimated with any degree of accuracy how officers will be,added to the Air Corps during the 1928 fiscal year, the hope has been pressed by Mason M hief of Corps, that v June 30, 1928, there will be in the flying arm of the military serv- jce a t 1 of 1,100 officers At the 2 there 019 of- the Air rov it will be an increase of about 200 men Wheth the total of 1,100 fHicers will be reached hy June 30, 198, depends e nu who apply for detail or transfer to Air Corps, upon the number of those who succsed in pass- ing the flying training course and also, upon’ the number of fiying ca- dets or civilians who pass any exam- ination which may be made up or in stituted by the \War Department to provide officers The Air Corps missioned officers present schedule, ex Maj Mai.

There en - few applications for transfer from other branches than the War Department anticipated, and not all of them will finish their flying course. It has been the experience of the Air Corps authorities that of the men who take the flving training not more than 50 per cent can com- plete it.

The au thorized strength of the Air Corps was 8,760 enlisted men, and when it was found necessary to decrease the | total number of enlisted men in the | regular establishment on account of the lack of funds with which to main- tain them. this was made proportion- | ate, and the Air Corps was cut from 8,760 down to 8,3 As no increase | is planned for the 1928 fiscal yvear, at its end there still will be 418 men less than we should have, even though | there are added the 1,248 of the first increment Seven officers of the Quartermaster Corps have been ordered by the War Department to attend the next course of instruction at the Quarter: master Corps Motor Transport School, Camp Holabird, Md., the instruction in which will begin about September 10. They are Capts. Wilmer M. Flinn, Samuel 1. Zeidner, Lawrence Slade, Otto Harwood; and First John F. Alcure, Carroll R. Hutchins, DuVall C. Watkins. Col. Dana T. Merrill, who has been in command of the 10th Infantry, Fort Thomas, Ky., has been detailed as a member of the general staff and is assigned to duty with the general staff with troops, effective on June 30. Col. Merrill, who is well known in military circles in this city, will at that time proceed to Fort Hayes, Ohio, and «will be assigned as chief of staff of the 5th Corps Area. Col. “award A. Sturges, assistant chief of fnane. has been dslgned, in ad- aitien to his other duties, as finance oificer of the District of Washington, relfeving Maj. Frank E. Parker, F. D. Effective January 31, Second Lieut. Ernest E. Hodgson, V.

C., who has been on_duty at the General Dispensary in Balti- more, Md., has recently reported for duty in the office of the surgeon general of the Army, this city. The Secretary of War is not in favor of the proposal which would appoint William V. Pruett to the position and rank of major in the Medical Corps of the Regular Establishment. The pro- visions of law governing original ap- pointments in the Medical Corps pre- scribe that they shall be made in the grade of first lieutenant between the ages of 23 and 3 ars. The_entire commissioned service of Dr. Pruett, War Department records reveal, amounts to 3 years, 2 months and 24 days. To entitle them to promotion to the grade of major, officers now in the Medical Corps are required to serve 12 years, and the appointment of a former emergency officer with less than 3 years and 3 months’ serv- ice to the grade of major would place him in a position of precedence and seniority over 353 officers of the Medi- cal Corps with longer commissioned service. The Secretary of War has consistently opposed any proposal which would single individual of a class for preferential treatment to the prejudice of others of that class. NAVY. Capt. Orin G. Murfin, who has been on duty as head of the materiel division in the operations office, Navy Department, but who will shortly as- sume his new duties as Assistant Chief of the Bureau of Navigation, will be relieved by Capt.

Kenneth Preparations are being made by the Engineer regiment for an intercom- municating telephone system in the National Guard armory to hook up all offices and headquarters. The local Guard has received in structions from the War Department | to submit as soon as practicable a | consolidated report on marksmanship | qualifications for all units, pointing | out that these reports are needed by | the Militia Bureau for the purpose of | determining the annual results of marksmanship training. It has not been practicable hereto- fore to prepare this report because of the failure of National Guard organi- zations to send the required papers to |the War Department. All unit com- manders now are directed to prepare these reports immediately following | the target season, and these are to be | consolidated by the adjutant general and forwarded to the department. | The Militia Bureau has informed the National Guard that in order to intelligently present the needs of the | National Guard to the War Depart- | ment and Congress it is necessary for | the bureau to compile accurate statis- tical data with regard to strength, drill attendance, animals, caretakers, etc. Reports conveying this informa: tion should be sent to the Militia Bu- reau each month. The Guard organi- zations are reminded that 4,000 of | these reports are due monthly, and | they RKave to be consolidated by a| small clerical force, and any delay from any organization seriously com- plicates the situation.
