S. ‘Washington Air Corps and Adjutant General Department Reserve officers will meet next Tuesday evening, the former group at rooms 1055-57 Muni- tions Building, Nineteenth and B streets, while the officers of the Ad- jutant General's Department will meet at local Reserve headquarters.

There will 2lso be a few simple problems illustra- tive of typical cases. Quartermaster Reserve officers of the District of Co- lumbia will meet at local headquarters next Wednesday evening umder the di- rection of Lieut. Col. B. Taylor, Q. M. C,, on duty in the office of the Quarter- master General, at which will be taken up motor transportation and military operations. At the finance conference, to be held next Thursday evening, Cfipt. John Vernon, Finance Reserve, will give an explanatory talk on prop- erty auditing. The attention of all ‘Washington Finance Reserve officers is invited to the fact that there has been a change in the dates of the finance conferences. Instead of being held on the second Tuesday, all finance con- ferences up to and including the end of the present school year will be held on the second Thursday of each month. The following Reserve officers resid- ing in Washington have been assigned to units of the 80th Division as indi- cated: Maj. Bernard S. McMahan, Quartermaster Reserve, 1200 Sixteenth street, to quartermaster section. Capt. Conrad F. Leue, Engineer Reserve, 809 Edmonds Building, to 305.h Engineers. Second Lieuts. Wallace S. Dawson, De- partment of Commerce, and Wilfred G. McLennan, 1615 H street, both Air Corps Reserve officers, to 80th Division, Air Corps. First Lieut. De Ruyter A. Butler, Medical Reserve, 1624 O street, is assigned to the 428th Infantry. In order to create a reserve of enlisted men it has been proposed to amend the national defense act so as to provide for an enlistment in the Regular Army for a period of seven years, three years of which will be served in the Regular es- tablishment and four years in the Regu- lar Army Reserve, Gen. Charles P. Summerall, chief of staff, has expressed the opinion that it would tend to de- velop a strong Reserve force that could be made a basis in time of emergency, while Maj. Gen. Fox Conner expressed the view that this would be a very val- uable asset to the Regular Army. Maj. Gen. Charles H. Bridges, the adjustant general of the Ar expressed much doubt as to the beneficial effect to thg national defense of the provision, ex- plaining that the office of the adjutant general is interested in only two matters relating to this proposal, first, that of procurement, and the second is keeping track of the men transferred from the Regular Army to the Reserve. Gen. Bridges was doubtful whether it would be practicable to get the men back to the colors after they had been trans- ferred to the Reserve in view of the fact that they had acquired a new status in civil life and would have many excuses as to why they should be exempt from the obligation to return to the colors. He further explained that it would be spreading a large expenditure for the enlisted Reserve over a number of years without any adequate return, and he was of the opinion that in an emer- gency it would be necessary to resort to a draft, as in the past war.
