scheme TO keep permanent regiments
in the Philippines and chang. the
officers from time to time as their
tours expire. The tour OF service
in the tropics, which was formerly
two years and later increased to two
and one-half years, Is now fixed for
both line and staff Officers at three
years. The officers of each arm of
the service have been arranged by
he war department on lists to show
their length of foreign service and
the officers of each grade with the
least foreign service will be ordered
to duty outside the United States to
fill vacancies as they occur by the re-
turn of officers who have completed
their tours of foreign duty.
This movement of regiments home
has advanced the coming of some OF
the regiments by several months, but
it is deemed best, all things consid-
cred. to complete the movement so
that the expenses of the new Philip
pine garrison may be considered on
ly from the first of the fiscal year,
when the new appropriation he
comes available.
