The Proposed stan Corps.

Mr.. PROCTOR in the Senate and Mr..
HULL in the House Of Representatives
have introduced bill prepared by the
Secretary Of War TO create General STAFF
for the army. Last spring the army act
offered by Mr.. Roof did not satisfy Con-
gress. and was rejected. The new bill
deals only with the proposed general
staff and il in seven sections.
In the second section the duties Of the
staff are defined to DO the preparat ons
of plans for the national defence and for
the mobilization Of the military forces
in time of war; the staff is further
To Investigate and report upon all questions
affecting the efficiency OF the army and It's state OF
prepsr ration for military operations to render pro
iessional aid and assistance TO the Secretary OF
War and to general officers and other superior com
manders, and to act as their agents In Informing
and coordinating the action of all the different
ofcers engaged In carrying out their orders. and
10 perform such other duties as may be from tine
TO time prescribed by the President"
The General staff corps, which will per-
form these duties, is to consist Of Chief
of staff of the army, with the rank, pay
and allowances of Lieutenant General
a Major-General and a Brigadier- Gen
eral detailed for four years from the
general officers of the army; four Colo
nels, six Lieutenant olonels and twelve
Majors, detailed from the corresponding
grades Of the army at large; and twenty
Captains. detailed from the Captains
and First Lieutenants Of the army at
large; total of forty five officers. After
their service in the General Staff, officers
are to return TO the branch Of the service
in which they hold permanent conmis-
sions, and all, except general officers,
must serve with their own troops for
two years before they Gun return to
staff service.
An important clause provides that
officers of the General Staff may DO
temporarily assigned to duty with any
branch of the army" This is taken
from the plan Of the foreign staff corps.
During his four years detail, an officer
could thus be assigned 10 pass several
months of each year with some branch
of the service different from his own,
and at the end Of his detail would be &C.
quanted with all the branches. In
practice this clause should prove very
valuable.
The Chief Of staff, under the direction
of the President and the Secretary of
War; is to supervise the troops of the
line, and the Administrative and Supply
departments
The best argument for this bill Is ap-
proval by the rest OF the world.
