A—10 THE SUNDAY RESERVES T0 BECIN FIELD MANEUVERS Col. Staley of 6th Marine Brigade Announces August 6 Date. Field maneuvers of the 6th Marine Reserve Brigade will start August 6, at Quantico, it was announced last night by Lieut. Col. J. J. Staley, command- ing, who states that many inquiries are being received from former Marines, who_wish to take part in maneuvers | involving real “soldiering.” After the first four days in camp the | brigade crosses the Maryland shore | under fleet landing force conditions and | then under bush and open-warfare con- ditions maneuvers north toward Wash- | ington, reaching their home port again | on August 16. , Misunderstanding Seen. Col. Staley points out that there seems | to be a misunderstanding among mem- bers of th: Fleet Marine Coips Re-‘ serve, class 3, that if they affiliate with the 6th Marine Reserve they lose their class 3 retainer pay. Such is not the case, he said, as many class 3 men are and have been attached to the 6th Brigade. Class 3 Reservists are men who have | served, 4. 8 or 12 years in the regular | corps 'and have been transferred to| the Fleet Marne Corps Reserve, where | they draw retainer pay as trained men for four vears, following their separa- tion from the Regular Establishment. ‘These class 3 men by joining the 6th Marine Reserves not only do not lose their retainer y, but also draw the usual camp pay and allowances for go- ing to camp when rezularly affiliated with any company or unit in the 6th Brigade. Previous service, however, is not neces- | sary for affiliation with the 6th Brigade as the fundamental mission of the bri- gade is to train young men for the Marine Corps. The age limits are from | 18 to 35. The final recruiting night for the 3rd Provisional Battalion unde: Maj. Lucian H. Vandoren was on last Friday. . The final recruiting night for the 1st Provisional Battalion under Maj. Earl C. Lane will be on next Tuesday. July 11, and the final recruiting night for the 2d Provisional Battalion under Maj. Harvey L. Miller will be on Wednesday, Julv 12, The recruiting office is at headquar- ters of the brigade, 458 Indiana avenue.

By the Associated Press. Returning yesterday from a personal inspection of the proposed St. Lawrence Waterway, Senator Norris, Republican, of Nebraska, declared himself stronger than ever for ratification of the treaty with Canada to build the huge project. The veteran advocate of Government ownership and operation of power plants said in a statement that the St. Lawrence seaway would be a boon to the entire country, save users of electricity in New York State “hundreds of millions of dollars annually,” and bring higher farm prices to the West through lowered freight rates. Norris, father of the recently enacted Muscle Shoals, Tennessee power and | navigation development project, STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

Bone Declared “Charmed.” He sald Scnator Bone, who left him in New York to return to the Pacific Coast, was ‘“charmed” at the pos- sibilities of the project. The Nebraskan criticized opponents of the treaty, which will come up at the next session of Congress for rati- fication, for what he termed their “selfish” attitude. “The main: opposition,” he said, “‘comes from the power trust, which has spread wonderful propaganda over the country in opposition to it.” g!scusslnu raiflroad opposition, | said: ““The people are entitled to the cheap- |est transportation = rate obtainable. an port he | selfish reasons will eventually get run | over. | “Our object is not to help any par- ticular industry; it's the people them- | selves. “The railroads are entirely wrong when they try to keeg up rates by pre- venting cheaper methods of transpor- tation.

We ought to have both of these outlets to the sea. “We ought to take advantage of every natural facility that exists. The Missis- sippi, especially its tributaries on the west, ought to be developed along the same basis as the St. Lawrence and the Tennessee by dividing the costs be- tween the various elements of benefit.

Every development each one its proper proportion of the | cost.” | Norris said Ontario had the cheapest electric light rates in the world, less predicted the price to New York users would be cut below that. He based this on the fact that only one-half of | the expense of the project would be charged up to power, whereas in On- tario every power facility so far has been charged up 100 per cent to power.
