of the United States" which are to be
shown at 4 o'clock next Friday after
directions of Maj Thomas j. Dick
son, chaplain. 9Th Field Artillery. L.
S. a. He took the pictures and will
deliver the explanatory lecture.
Maj. Dickson has shown the pictures
at several places, the first being at the
convention of the National Guard AS

while the soldiers were playing the war
game, innocent of the fact that they
were before a camera lens. Maj. Dick

are pictures of the various shooting

MARINE REGULATION VOID.
Attorney General Holds It Is in Con-
fict With Statute,

According to the Attorney General. who
was asked for an opinion on the subject;
article 4i41 Of the naval regulate pro-
viding that officers of the staff depart
ments of the Marine Corps. shall be
stationed at such places as may be des-
ignated by the commandant of the
corps is invalid because it is inconsist-
ent with the statutes bearing on the
subject.
Congress says the Attorney Genera.
under its constitutional powers has
created these three staff officers of the
Marine Corps the paymaster. inspec-
tor and quartcrmastera and certain as
sstants to them with certain prescribed
functions and duties. A regulation which
would deprive them of these functions
or place them in a situation where they
would be unable TO perform them is
necessarily invalid. In short. il is. in my
judgment. clearly inconsistent with the
acts of Congress relating TO the staff
of the Marine Corps to relegate. e. e..
the quartemaster. to the position of an
officer in his own department and to
raise one of his assistants to a position
not recognized in the statutes. namely.
officers in charge of the quartermaster
department. and this l understand arti-

Correct Misinformat1on.

Wherever the pictures have been shown

| interest. They have served the purpose

about service in the army, and while it is

cruiting purposes. they have been effec-
tive along this line, particularly in in
