Army. The class B board, headed by Maj. Gen. Hanson E. Ely, which has been in fon in the War Department since September 26, has completed its work of designating those officers who, in the language of the nation: defene act, “should not be retained in the service.” The other members on this poard were Brig. Gens. Albert J. Bowley, Robert Callan, Rich- mond P. Davis, Baward L. King Hush A. Drum and Bdgar T. Cob line, with Lieut. Col. Clark Lvan, & G. D., as recorder. The report that 1he board had occasion to examife fo- fo the records of 1o less than 1.100 o cers was the source of cm‘m:"mlhu\ speculation in certain quarters (REC was comstrued as indicating that 4% unusual number of Army officcts (o heen marked for consideration by 7 class B board.

Harry L. Steel will prob- ably be designated to succeed Col. Mitchell in the Coast Artillery office. Orders have heen issued to Lieut. Col. Joseph O. Mauborgne, formerly in charge of the engineering and re- search division of the office of the chief signal officer of thé Army, as. signing him to duty as signal officer of the Panama Canal Department.

Navy, It is estimated by the Bureau of | Navigation that approximately 142 meémbers of the 1928 graduating class of the Naval Academy will be com- missioned In the line of the Navy and that this small number \.ill not off- | £et the normal line attrition. As a| consequence, the 928 distribution figures, which fix the allowed number of officers in each grade, will show a #maller allowance in each grade than | 18 now the case. Figures prepared in the Navy Department show that attri- tion in the line since last June has been at the rate of 3.7 per cent, and if that rate is continued until June, 1928, the line strength. before the ad- | dition of the graduating class, will be 5.228. This number will be increased | upon graduation to approximately | 5.370, which will become the distri. | bution number. Applying the per. centage fixed by law, the allowed num. ber of lieutenant commanders and | lieutenants will be 752 and 1,745, re- spectively, as compared with the | present allowance of 761 and 1.76 Thus, there can be no promotions 1o lieutenant commander in June, and | that additional promotions to that | grade after the distribution will not | e permitted until nine officers have | left the grade hy promotion or for ced in class | | given THE SUNDAY Hine; Louisa Raglan, Blizabeth Mills and_Dorothy Hollis, from Jefferson; Ruth Vanderbilt from Langley, Louise Deardoft from Macfarland, Nellie Hol- mead from Powell and Elizabeth Dreos from Stuart Junior High School.

With respect to the grade of lieutenant, it is assumed that | some 24 vacancies now exist because there are no officers eligible for pro. | motion at this time, due to the require- ment of 3 years' service as lieutenant | (unior grade). Probably 50 additional | Yacancies in the lieutenant grade, it is éstimated, will occur prior to June. Therefore, about 53 members of the 1922 Naval Academ; their numbers for promotion June, and promotions during the re- mainder of the year will average &bout seven per month. This esti- mate indicates that June staff corps promotions in the non-selective ranks will be confined to 10 lieutenants | (unior grade) in the Corps and one in the Civil Engineer Corps. Promotions to the rank of Lieutenant in the Medical, Dental and Chaplains Corps will not occur until the junior officers of ths 19 val Academy class become eligible for that grade, which will probably be in 1930 It was learned Navy Department will in all proba- bility propose a bill providing for th retiement of chiefs of bureaus former chiefs of bureaus in the rank authorized for the office held by them Present law provides t chiste or bureaus in the Navy Department. in cluding the judze ndvorate zeneral, are entitled to be retived in the rank authorized for the office, viding they fice: but if retired after being relicved from datail as chiefs of bureaus. they may be retired only in the rank ac- tually held by them at time of retire. ment.
