TO ORGANIZE
signal CORPS
MONDAY night

On Monday evening at 80 o'clock
the 40 odd men who have already sign
ed up for enlistment in the Signal
corps of the National Guard will meet
at the armory and be formally muster
ed in. 1t is aimed to have a company
OF at least 20 men within fortnight's
time
Men who can handle motorcycles or
technical electrical men are especially
desirable for an army signal company,
though technical experience is not
necessary to enlisting. The Signal
Corps will have more field work and
less military drill than other compa-
MES of the guard, and is already prov.
ing popular.

ARMY INCREASE
SITUATION NOW .
BADLY MUDDLED

Army legislation began its course
in the sixty-fourth Congress in woe
full muddle." according to the Army
and Navy Register, which devotes
much space to discussing the situa-
ton in a recent number. Mr. CARR,
son has no measure to present AZ
has sought to detract from the I'M.
portance of the opinion of the general
staff, ''the full facilities of which he
has. moreover, failed to employ to his
own enlightenment" The Register
says:
The general staff was created for
the very purpose of considering a
problem such as now confronts Con-
gress without, of course, the obliga
ton Of adoption by Congress. The
house and senate military committees
are entitled to receive all the informa-
ton and suggestions that are possible
In order to frame legislation which
will be of the greatest value to the
army and it should not be necessary
to extract these aids by ingenious
processes or by coercion So far as
the war department is concerned, the
chairmen of the military committees

with two army measures as unlike in
character and provision as it is pos.
sible to have them and be devoted tc

1t was hoped that, as a starting
point, Us a convenience if for nothing
else, there would be one bill which
would become the basis of committee

which hearings could proceed. With
the two committees operating indie

existing circumstances, the problem
is made that much more difficult OF

CONGRESS kept
IN IGNORANCE
BY new Ruling
Garrison Silence Order Expect
ed to Have an Adverse In
fiuence on Legislation

The Register is of the opinion that
Secretary Garrison's order TO officers
rot to express their opinions in re-
gard to military matters is going to
have an adverse influence on legisla-
ton. This view is expressed in the
following paragraphs:
1T is intended to hold hearings be-
fore the House military committee
without reservation or limitation. The
War Department will be asked to des-
ignate those who have views 10 ex-
press and undoubtedly the members
o. the committee will ask that other
experts, military and civilian, be call
ed The great difficulty which Will
be encountered by the committee is
In the direction Of obtaining testimony
which is not influenced, directly or in
directly, by the secretary of war.
In PeriIous Position.
Ii is apprehended, and with abun-
cant reason, that there will be few
army officers who feel that it is their
duty to place themselves in the peri
lcus position of opposing Mr.. CARR.
sons views, despite assurances from
the secretary of war that no harm
can or will be visited upon a service
critic. The fact that the war depart
ment-largely because of Mr.. Garri-
has stifled all public expression and
has stifled all public expression and
has discouraged even the exchange OF
opinions on the part of army officers,
will do, much to deprive the military
committees of candid opinions and I'M
restricted suggestions that would be
of the greatest value in passing upon
the provisions of the Hay bill, which
contains much that is obviously incor-
porated IN the committee print of the
measure for the purpose Of discussion
and with the idea of being taken out
or materially modified II retained
Zone of the most unfortunate con-
6itions OF the whole program of army
legislation in Its initial stage Is the
chance that The House and Senate
military committees will find 1t SO diff.
ficult to acquire the views and recon-
of individual officers who
are bound to feel the restraint watch
has been imposed upon them and
which is no less a restraint because it
is not promulgated in general orders
or in anyrspecial instructions from the
office of the secretary Of war.
1T will be seen, therefore, that army
legislation begins its CAREER in the
Gath Congress under auspices and in
fluences which are not promising, at
a time when II would be reasonable to
expect no obstacles that are of any
great moment beyond the legitimate
sufficient in itself, of con-
verting a technical subject into &C.
ceptable legislative form. The War
Department might have contributed
its share of helping at this juncture,
and the fact that it has not done SO
but has. on the contrary, made the sit
uation all the harder to cope with, is
not viewed with patience by those
who will have the task of bringing or
der out OF chaos"

CORDELE ELECTRIC COMPANY
LIGHTS ELECTRIC FLAa

AS Regent, in behalf of Fl. Early
chapter D. A. R., l wish to publicly
thank the Cordele Electric company
for it's splendid cooperation and sup
port in aiding the chapter in its pur-
chase of the electric flag presented
to the city, and its generosity now in
consenting to light the flag for the
much. When the D. A. R. conceived
the idea of installing the flag, the city
fathers agreed to light it during their
administration, but plainly told us
their successors would have the priv
ilege and right to annual their action
in the matter if they saw fit. We ac-
copied the courtesy and cooperation
of the present city administration and
installed the flag, expecting to petit
'tion future town authorities to keep
the flag lighted: But the Cordele Elec-
trio Company comes to our rescue and
offers to light the flag for the chapter
free of charge, thereby relieving us of
all embarrassment concerning the mat
ter. We deeply appreciate this action
on the part of the Cordele Electric
company. 1t is not only great favor
to the chapter, but to the city of Cor
dele as well, for now that the city
fathers are relieved of all expense in
lighting the flag, they will take steps
Immediately to place the flag ON the
top of the court house dome. Fort

trio company for its willingness to CO.
operate with it in it's efforts to pro-
