The bill awaiting the action of the
military committee of the senate pro-
vides for a full peace strength of g.
500 officers and men and if passed
will put the signal corps in the line Of
the army. Military experts estimate
that two and one half per cent of the
entire force of an army Is the mini
mum that can safely be used for sig
nal work. The present strength Of
the signal corps is slightly more than
per cent of the authorized strength
Of the army in time of war.
The signal corps has large num-
ber of officers detailed from the infan-
try, cavalry and artillery, for a short
period of time and others who are
only attached to the signal corps.
More than in any other branch of the
service, the officers and men of the
signal service require special training.
Their work involves the establishment
and maintenance of cable, telegraph
and wireless system, the installation OF
fire control systems in all fortihcati-
ons. military aeronautic, cable and
telephone equipment for army posts
and target ranges, electrical equip
ment, participation in military maneu-

AN INSPIRED ARTICLE, HOW
EVER, SEEMS TO STATE
PoPE'S SATISFACTION.
ou1BURsT or INTOLERANCE
Although Procession Did Not Occur
il is Pointed Out That the Liberty
and Respect Accorded to Eucharis-
tis Congress Are Appreciated.

ROME. Sept. l4.-Considerable
anxiety had been felt at the Vatican
since the opening Of the Eucharistic
Congress in London with regard TO
the procession OF the blessed sacra-
ment in the streets, partly because it
was feared the procession might be
prohibited and partly because If it
was not prohibited it might. be the
cause OF unpleasant incidents.
The pope, whose faith in British Ii
berty is very great, has been optimis-
tic al the while, and when it was learn
ed that it had been definitely decided
to abandon the procession on the or
iginal lines he felt greatly disappoin-
ted, although, after deep thought he
concluded that perhaps this was the
wisest thing, for fear the Catholic man
Hesitation might create a misunder-
standing as to the intentions and de-
sire OF the Church OF Rome.
The Correspondence Romano, a
Catholic organ, publishes the follow
ing communication which evidently is
inspired by the Vatican:
The procession did not occur Al
though regretting this omission, we
wish to point out that we appreciate
the liberty and respect which surroun-
ded the Eucharistic Congress, under
the shadow of the British flag.
"a few protestant societies, aspir-
ing to archelogocal fame by exhuming
past prescriptions, were merely the
proverbial fly trying to drag the
coach. If the fly had been alone
the anti Eucharistic coach OF the six
teenth century would never have left
the museum OF religious prosecutions.
What moved the coach was the eff
caceous intervention of certain poll
ticians who depicted the procession
as a manifestation disagreeable to
the French bloc and thus hurtful to
the interests OF the Anglo-Franch
entente.
For the same reasn, the words Of
the pope to the French pilgrims on
Monday were taken advantage of,
the enemies of the church pretending
that the pontiff had praised British Ii
berty for the purpose Of Furnishing in
the pillory, the small tyrants of Paris,
Nevertheless the Eucharistic Con-
gress remains a glorious memory for
the Catholic world as well as proof
of British liberty and hospitality. The
omission of the procession will serve
to show to the public from what quar-
tiers come directly or indirectly all
sectarian inspirations against the
Catholic church"
