Gen. Marshall Appeals for
More Army Engineers.
NOT ENOUGH FOR WORK
Calls Attention in Annual Report to
Increasing Duties.
SIX BATTALI0Ns ARE NEEDED
Estimates Submitted for Fortifica-
tions at Nome and in In
sular Possessions.

Tn his first annual report Gen. W. l..
Marshall. chief Of engineers. United
States Army, makes a strong appeal for
an increase in the Corps of Engineers.
The present authorized commissioned
strength of the Engineer Corps consists
of 1S9 officers. He recommends an in
crease of 1:;2 officers sixty to be employed
on military and civil work OF construc-
ton, fifty-seven to be employed in three
additional battalons and fifteen for regi-
mental organization.
Gen. Marshall comments at considerable
length upon the increasing duties of the
Corps of Engineers. At present he says
only fortyfour officers, or about one
fourth of the corps, are left under full
control of the department to attend to
the important construction works, forti-
fications, river and harbor and other
duties devolvng by law upon the CORPS
of Engineers. He says that while the
number of officers is decreasing the re-
verse is true of the work. River and
harbor improvements are now going on,
he says, under appropriations of a size
previously unknown, fertilization con-
structlon has been extended to island pos
sessions and large share of the Panama
canal work has been intrusted to officers
of the corps.
