CIVIL APPOINTMENTS
RESENTED BY CADETS
West Point Students See Injustice in Placing of
Outsiders in Positions-GoVernment Explains
Trouble Due to Former Blunder.

Members OF the classes of 1893 and 1910
at West Point are saying there is dis
satisfaction at the Military Acamedy
because Of recent appointments Of lieu
tenants in the regular army from civil
life by President Roosevelt
Cadets said lieutenants thus assigned
to the army viii outrank the 1O6 mem
bers Of the class OF 1903 and the eighty
five members of the class OF 1910 The
military students feel that the vacancies
should be filled by them rather than by
civilians.
The case Of John c. Walker, who. on
September % last. was assigned 10 the
Third Cavalry after his appointment
from civil life, was cited by the cadets
as an instance OF what they said was
the injustice Of the present system
Walker entered the Military Academy
in 1906 with the class Of 1910 He left
the Academy before the completion of
his first year. Several months ago he
took an examination and was appointed
a second Lieutenant. As he has entered
the service as such in the Third Cavalry
he will outrank not only HIS old class
mates, but the members of the class
ahead.

tons issued by the War Department,
United states Senators and Representa-
tives have tried to have appointments
from civil life held up until the West
Point men pass their examinations and
