A request was made last week to Washington Reserve headquarters to suggest to the officers of the Specialist Reserve residing in and near Washing- ton that they have a _monthly meeting in the nature of a dinner or a busi- ness meeting at which speakers would discuss military problems affecting offi- cers regardless of rank or assignment and Reserve matters in general. It is not proposed that this shall be a course of inactive training for which credits | will be given, nor that it shall be under | the direction of local Reserve headquar- ters, but the program and place will be such as the officers themselves may de- termine. There are approximately 55 officers of the Specialist Reserve sec- ti‘(;\n residing in Washington and vi- cinity. In carrying out the provisions of the Air Corps expansion act, that author- izes the President to call to active serv- ice, with their consent, such number of Air Corps Reserve officers not to exceed 550, 90 per cent of whom shall serve for a period of not more than one year and 10 per cent for a period of not more than two years, the War Depart- ment will give priority over other appli- cants for such duty to Air Corps Re- serve officers who are graduates of the Air Corps Advanced Flying School and who apply for extended active duty within one year from graduation from that school. In the selection of the 10 per cent who as provided for in the act are to serve for a period of not more than two years, preference will be given to those Air Corps Reserve officers who qualify for appointment in the Regular Army through examination and for whom vacancies do not exist. During the 1928 fiscal year 75 Re- serve officers were called to active duty under the provisions of the foregoing act, although money had been pro- vided for the training of 122 officers. It was necessary to reduce this number to conform to the availability of air- planes and quarters at stations of tac- tical units. For the same reason, 110 Reserve officers will be called to ex- tended active duty in the 1920 fiscal year, although 204 are authorized by the Air Corps program. In the policy Jjust announced, Washington Air Corps Reserve officers will be interested to know that preference has been given for extended active duty training to graduates of the” Advanced Flying School because the principal source of officer material for the Regular Army Air Corps is from the graduates of this school who meet the basic requirements for Regular Army appointment and qualify through examination. ——— American, German, British and French firms have formed a syndicate to build the 800-mile railway throug! eccomplished at this conference wili be the audit of stock-record account of h Persia from the Persian Gulf to the Caspian Sea.
