"The Swedish system of physical train
ing, as adopted for the naval service,
has been in use at the recruit depots
throughout the entire year with most
satisfactory results, and at the beginning
of the present fiscal year instructions
were issued directing the extension of
this system of physical training to all
posts of the Marine Corps. Lack of suit
a serious matter, particularly at recruit
depots, where it is necessary that the
physical instruction be most thorough.
Exclusion of Detectives.
This Office has been impressed of late
with the importance of excluding from
the service that class of detectives who
are more or less feeble-minded. The edu-
cational test on examination for enlist
ment is necessarily emental, but there
are many young men who can read ano
write who are physically sound ana YET
whose mental growth has been prema-
turely arrested. This class OF detectives
is peculiarly attracted to military nfe
but when enlisted are VIGOROUSLY non
amenable to discipline.
at is the intention of this off1ce to
collate data and statistics OF these cases
with a view to cooperation with the
bureau of medicine and surgery and the
civilian medical examiners appo nted oy
the Marine Corps recruiting officers to
e inmate as far as practicable this uh-
desirable class.

LARGER MARINE CORPS

Increase Needed to Meet
Governing Demands, View
of the Commandant.
Recommendation Made in Report OF
Gen. Biddle-Congress Asked
to Make Provision.

An increase of the Marine Corps, to
meet growing demands at home and
abroad. is the chief recommendation
made by Maj. Gen. w. P. Biddle, COM
mandant Of the corps, in what ~proba-
ably will be his last annual report as

piled for retirement on account of Ill

listed strength Of the navy, the Marine
Corps as authorized. is at present 37S

is recommended that representation be
made to the Congress to provide for an
increase as above, and in case addi-
tional men are authorized for the navy
the number given above be correspond

listed men authorized for the corps, and
that the proportion Of officers to enlist
ed men, which is now one officer, line and
staff combined, to 34.5 men, be increased
gradually to one officer. line and stan
combined. to twenty men.
Other Recommendations.
TN view of the undesirability of in.
creasing the commissioned personnel OF
the corps in time of peace in any one
year by more than 10 per cent. 1t is
recommended that the number of officers
for the coming year be increased by

mended that hereafter vacancies In thu
