BULGARIA HAS PROBLEM ABSORBING GRADUATES Government Contemplates New 8chools for Agriculture and Mechanics, SOFIA (#).—A glut of “intellectuals” in Bulgaria is giving serious concern to the government. Although Bulgaria is proud of the fact that only 5 per cent of her total population is illiterate, the government is puzzled with the large number of promising youths graduated each year from the country's colleges. The civil service cannot absorb the thousands of graduates. The minister of education is therefore working on & law which will convert 12 of the kingdom's 20 colleges into schools of agriculture and me- chanics. More drastic cuts are under considera- tion in the case of women's colleges. There are four law schools for girl students and their number will be re- duced to one, as Bulgaria offers little work to woman lawyers. ‘ash- . and Maj. James W. Boyer, jr.

Special attention is being given by | the War Department to the selection of | properly qualified Reserve officers for | detail to the special course at the com- | mand and general staff school at Fort Leavenworth for National Guard and Reserve officers. The course is three months in duration, usually beginning about March 15. In the past the Dis- trict of Columbia has been well repre- sented in this class and there is no doubt but that there are a number of local Reserve officers who are desirous of undergoing this course of instruc- tion. The latest War Department or- der lowers the age limit for those de- tailed to the command and general staff school to 45 years. Previously the &ge limit was 47 years. Only under the most exceptional conditions may this age limit be waived by the War Department. The equitation require- ments at the school make it necessary that officers detailed there be in perfect physical condition and before any local Reserve officer is ordered to the school he will be required to undergo a | thorough physical examination. For further _information concerning this course, Reserve officers of Washington should apply to local Reserve head- quarters. For the second time, Maj. W. H. Hyde is captain of the Reserve officers’ riffe and pistol team, which is com d of 12 Reserve officers selected from all parts of the United States. In 1928, eight years after its organization under the national defense act of 1920, the Reserve Corps was able to obtain au- thority and funds to participate in the national matches which have been held annually since 1903. Under the leader- | ship of Maj. Hyde, this team, winning | seventh place in competition with nearly | a hundred teams of all classes, made such a remarkable showing that the entry of the Reserve officers’ team an- nually in the national matches will be Majs.

The fibres are long, tough and durable—ideal for interlacing into big, strong boards that contain millions of tiny, sealed air cells—just what is required for efficient insulation.
