THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. MAY 5. 1929—PART 4. Pistrict National Guard While other units of the National Guard of the District of Columbia have been boasting publicly of men in their commands who had attended & hundred or so consecutive drills, Company A, 1218 Engineers, has been sitting back with the champion of them all and say- ing nothing about it; just taking it as a matter_of military routine. Sergt.

Capt. Evans, commanding this unit, vouches for this record, and so far as the old timers remember, it has never been reached before. Another service paper has made its appearance in the local Guard. It is the Ditch Digger, published as the offi- cial organ of Company A, 121st Engi- neers. It is described as “owned and operated by 65 live men of Company A with the following staff: “Editor, | Gil Wild; associate editor, Milton A. Smith; pressmen, Pyles and Smith, and reporters and correspondents, all mem- | bers of Company A. Sergt. Smith, the associate editor, | lays claim to distinction as the son of | Sergt. Milton D. Smith, well known | member of the Metropolitan Police De- | partment and president of the Police- | men's Association. In order to increase the number of petty officers in Company A. efforts are being made to increase the strengti | of the command. It was announced | that this unit needs only eight more men in order to permit it to have one more staff sergeant and one more cor- poral, | A. 121st Engineers, like sev- | organizations in the Guard, | has formed & social club, composed of | the enlisted men of the command, for | the purpose of providing recreation and entertainment outside of the dull monotony of the drill routine under uninviting armory conditions. The fol lowing have been elected officers: Pres dent, McGaffin; vice president, Tarl; secretary, Butler; treasurer, MarloW, | and sergeant at Arms, Lehman and Jones. Several men of Company A, 121st| Engineers, have appeared before sum- mary courts for failure to attend drill, but instead of compelling them to pay the fines handed out, $6 apiece, they have been given suspended sentences, which will be held over their heads until the next unéxcused absence, when the price will be due and payable. Other- wise, the United States marshal for the District of Columbia, who, under the law, is the collection agent, will be asked to carry out the sentence, which has an alternative of a certain number of days in the District workhouse. Another geperal court-martial in the Jocal Guard was organized last Tues- | day night, with Maj, Walter W. Burns, commanding the 260th Battalion of Coast Artillery, as president, for the trial of such cases as are presented to it for trial. This 1§ the second general court which has been organized within the past several months. The first one, after organization, never had any cases referred to it, but has never been dis- solved, according to headquarters. The brigade headquarters, for some unexplained reason, attempted to con- ceal the appointment of this court and refused information as to its member- ship or its impending business.. But it was learned that it has in its per- sonnel several second lieutenants of the command, which indicates that it probably will try enlisted men. It aas said at the brigade headquarters that it has been decided not to give any puchtigy mm!.he ml'éel’ at this time, an e military order t! 1t has been withheld. Sooomtig listed man of one of the allowance for units composing the local Guard. While the total strength of the Guard has not been changed, it was sald, the maximums in several com- | panies have been raised or lowered to suit the exigencies of the situation. ‘The new strength allotments follow: State staff, 14: Headquarters Detach- ment, 20th’ Division, Special Troops, 8; Headquarters Detachment, 29th Divi- sion, 57; 29th Division.

Units will not exceed the strength designated in the order, it says, unless prior authority is secured fromi the *-zade headquarters. Unit c _.manders are also enjoined to keep on the rolls of their organiza- tions only such personnel as is active and whose attendance can be secured, in order that there will not be carried personnel which should be eliminated. rgt. George L.

Unsatisfactory: Battery C. 260th Coast Artillery, 59.61: Battery B, 260th Coast Artillery, 56.36. Boxing bouts were staged for Na- tional Guardsmen Thursday night by the Sidearms Club, composed of mem- bers of the 29th M. P. Company. These bouts were tryouts to determine who shall represent the club in future Na- tional Guard matches, in which it is planned to have every organization in the militia take part. Hereafter the club schedule calls for weekly cards, which will be held after conclusion of | the regular business sessions. | In the main bout Eugene A. Gross of |the 20th M. P.s held Sergt. Tom Mc- Gaffin of Co. A, 121st Engineers, to & draw. John F. McKenzie, jr., won a decision over Steve Risler, both of the M. P. Company. They were below 125 pounds. : Gross nearly met his match in Claude B. Amidon, also of the M. P. Company. Experience and training more than off- set an advantage of five pounds in weight, however, and Gross sent home two blows to Amidon’s one. Louis B. McKenzie took an easy de- cision over Jack Erly, who showed promise in his first experience in the ring. Both are members of the M. P. Company and fought at 130 pounds. Cuts Through Hardest Steel. By means of a new kind of machine tool material known as carboloy, devel- oped at the General Electric labora- tories, operations have been successfully performed of cutting the 16-inch battle- ship armor plate, one of the hardest steels in the world, & feat considered impossible with presént-day machine tools; cutting a screw thread on big blocks of plate glass, tooling porcelain bakelite _and manganese steel —all most difficult tasks with the best tool steel now in use. The new material is composed of tungsten carbide and cobalt, the carbide being extremely hard and the cobalt giving it the necessary strength for cutting tools. The com- pany has been using it for more than two year$ with marked success, not only. cutting down the time necessary to com- plete certain operations from 4 to 10 times, but doing the work at about one- ters Detachment, 20th Divisibn, has units of the 29th National Guard Di-| vision, who is up on of public property.

Members of the 29th National Guard Division staff have been extended an invitation to attend a military recep- tion and ball to be given by the Rich- mond Light Infantry Blues Battalion at Richmond, Va. in honor of Gov. Harry Flood Byrd in the Virginia cap- ital on May 10, in celebration of the 140th anniversary of the formation of the outfit. Local members of the stafl have not yet decided whether or not they will be able to attend. Lieut. Col. Francis A. Pope of the Militia Bureau visited and inspected the rifle range of the local Guard at Camp Simms, Congress Heights, D. C., last Monday, it was announced. It was reported at brigade headquar- ters that a large number of men are daily using the range for their target practice, the reports indicating that on Monday there were 40 men firing, half of whom were aspirants for the rifie team which will represent the local Guard at rifle matches to be held dur- ing the ensuing Summer. The estimates of appropriations needed to carry on the work of the Guard for the fiscal year 1931 now are in course of preparation, it was said at the armory. Money will be asked for the construction of a new roof on the armory of the 260th Battalion of Coast Artillery at Water and O streets southwest. This roof is said now to be in a bad condition, and when efforts were made to obtain money for its re- pair by inclusion of appropriation in a deficiency bill at the last Congress it was rejected because it was contended that the matter should have been for- seen and included in one of the regular appropriation measures, The local Guard alto will ask for an ion for the construction ef rete floor in the new storage building recently erected at Camp Simms for the protection of automotive equipment and target range material, The officials of the Guard have not yet discussed with a view to including it in the appropriations the matter of a provision for an armory for the local Guard. There is some doubt now, it was said, whethej be made, as every been met with rel District _officials nother attempt wi AT from some source, refused to include provision for an armory in the pro- posed five-year building program for the District of Columbia on the ground Various Guard 0 years have been trying té g ch legisla- ut these efforts, too, have consistently met with defeat.

AT L VLR Every reserve officer residing in the District of Columbia will be interested | to learn that there was introduced in (the Senate last week by Senator Reed (Pennsylvania), chairman of the Senate military committes, a measure provid- ing for a reserve officers’ division in the War Department. This division would conaist of one chief holding the rank of in this division, but the proposed law prescribes that three of the officers so assigned shall be members of the Offi- cers' Reserve Corps. The reserve offi- cers on duty in the reserve division would be called to active duty with thei own consent for this purpose, and whilc s0 serving would receive the active duty | pay and allowances of their grades. |~ The duties that would be performed | by the reserve division would consist, exclusively, in the general supervision | under the Chief of Staff of the admin istration and development of the Offi. cers Reserve Corps, under such regula- tions as might be prescribed by the Seeretary of War, but would not in- clude such supervision over reserve offi- cers who are federally recognized Na- tional Guard officers. In co-ordination with the General ff, the chief of the reserve division would be consulted regarding, and kept informed and ad vised of, all existing and proposed pol cies, regulations, plans and orders af- fecting the Officers’ Reserve Corps. As a result of this effort to establish a separate reserve division in the War Department there exists among the reserve officers of the country differ- ences of opinion as to the advisability of creating this new division. Those in favor of establishing a separate reserve division insist that the affairs of the Officers’ Reserve Corps would be ad- ministered more expeditiously and that the actual existence in the War Depart- ment of a reserve division where all reserve matters would be handled would increase the efficlency of the corps. Those opposed point out that the affairs of the Reserve Corps as now handled are satisfactory to the reserve, and that the creation of a reserve division in the War Department is but the establish- ment of another bureau in the already over developed, network of Government offices and departments. It is yet too early to predict what the outcome of the reserve division proposal will be, but at any rate the progress of this measure through Congress will be watched with a gread deal of interest by reserve officers throughout the country. Officers of the 313th Field Artillery, Col. Leroy W. Herron commanding, will meet at Fort Myer today at 9:30 a.m. for instruction in equitation, under the direction of Maj. W. R. Woodward, F. A.

The regular monthly battalion in-| spection will be held tomorrow, follow- | ing which there will be a recreation period. For the entertainment of the personnel a number of boxing bouts have been arranged between the scrap- rs of the battalion and several well own civilian boxers of the city, it was announced. The District of Columbia Branch of the United States Naval Reserve Of- ficers’ Assoclation will hold its annual dinner May 18 at the Hotel Hamilton, | in honor of Comdr. Mark L. Hersey, U. 8. N., inspector-instructor of the or- ganization, and captain of the Reserve training ship, the United States de- stroyer Abel P. Upshur, who has been ordered to other duty. Since Comdr. Hersey has been superivising the train- ing of the local battalion, he has done much to raise it to its present high state of efficiency, and the dinner .s to show the gratification of the officer personnel for the aid and professional advice he has given them. Comdr. Nichols of the association said that it is desired to have present, in addition to the active officers of the Reserve, all Naval Reserve officers now resident in the city, and particularly former officers, who have served in the local battalion. Letters have been ad Strickler, 720 Third street, is assigned | to the 320th Infantry. At the annual convention of the Re- serve Officers’ Association of the United States, held at Indianapolis, Ind, last week, Col. Walter C.

Such officers desiring to_attend are urged to communicate with the secre- tary of the local chapter, Lieut. (jun- for grade), C. H. Willlams, at the Na- val Research Laboratory, at Bel- levue, D. C. It was announced that the Bureau of Navigation of the Navy Department contemplates sending 40 enlisted men of the Naval Reserve, classes V-2 or F-1, to the Naval Air Station, Pensa- cola, Fla., for one year's active duty, commencing July 1 next. These men, it was explained, will be in the status of station keepers and available for general duties in connection with the instruction, training and drilling of the Naval Reserve on that station. They should be, in so far as possible, aviation ratings. Tentative quotas may be taken as one and one-third men for each authorized aviation division in any one district. Commandants _ have been requested to make every effort to bring out the necessary number of ap- plicants. S Provisions are being made, it was al nounced by the Navy Department, to fill 70 vacancies in the active units of the scouting and battle fleets from among those ensigns of the Aviation Reserve who have been tralned and commis- sioned since July 1, 1923. Considera- tion will be given to all requests, and preference for this duty in the following order: (1)) Those who have previously not served one year with the fleet. (2) Those now serving one year. with the fleet. (3) Those who have previously served one year on training duty, but who are now in an inactive status. Commandants have been requested to notify all ensigns of the Aviation Re- serve that their requests should be on | file with the Navy Department by June 1 next. They aiso were instructed to point out to applicants that this duty will commence on July 1 and that all officers should, before submitting their requests, determine their ability to con- tinue this duty for the specified period of one year. They also are advised that little option can be given in the choice of the squadron or coast on which they will serve. Requests must go to the Bureau of Navigation via official channels. ‘The commanders-in-chief of the scouting and battle fleets have been re- quested to submit selections in the order of their desirability from among those | ensigns now performing one year's ac- tive duty and who request an additional year's duty. Officers selected for the duty will be notified as soon after the 1st of June as is practicable. Special instructions for the participa- | tion of Naval Reserve personnel in the coming Summer training cruises have been published by the Bureau of Navi- gation of the Navy Department. It is pointed out that the training quota of | Naval Reserve officers authorized for each naval district is the district's quota of fleet Reserve officers plus 25 | per cent. The training quota of enlisted | men equals the district’s authorized quota of class F-1 men. It is desired that all members of fleet divisions per- 15 | form their required annual tra.nng duty with the divisions to which they are attached except that medical and supply officers should not, as & rule, be sent on destroyer cruises unless there is no other suitable duty available for them and their presence on board will not deprive any line officer of an oppor- tunity to cruise on board a destroyer. Members of the Headquarters Division Should, wherever practicable, be cruised with those fleet divisions with which they can be accomodated, except that line officers above the rank of lieutenant | not attached to fleet divisions should | preferably be given training afloat on | vessels other than destroyers. | It is not desired by the department to cruise recently enlisted recruits nor other enlisted Reservists who havc. falled to maintain active interest in the organization to which attached. As a rule, therefore, it was stated, no enlisted man of either class F-1 or volunteer Naval Reserve should be permitted to cruise unless he has attended a mini- mum of 12 drills durjng the six month- immediately preceding the cruise. —_— Too Many Tire Styles. There is a demand for simplificatior | in the manufacture of tires. The waste - | in producing and distributing the un- necessary types is far greater than is generally realized, says a rubber expert, and it has been wisely avoided by foreign manufacurers. American tire makers Have been too complaisant with car builders, doubtless because compe- tition for their orders has been keen: but they would do the builders a real service, earn the gratitude of a host of car and tire dealers and buyers, and put their own industry in a much stronger position were they but to in- sist that about three-fourths of the tire varities now in use be promptly elim- inated. Not long ago the sheet steel | industry produced 1,819 varieties. Now | it turns out but 263 and saves $2,500,- | 000 yearly. Makers of steel reinforcing |bars cut varieties from 40 to 11 and are saving $4,500,000 yearly; and the list of concerns thus advantaged through simplified practice can be extended con- siderably. The enterprising American tire industry should also in that progressive list.
