BUSINESSMEN
URGED TO join
RESERVE CORPS
Maj. C. S. Lincoln Tells of
Needs They Could Supply
in Case of War

Mai Charles s. Lincoln, in charge oil
Hawaiian militia work. and Walter +
Dillingham; are working together on
the enlistment of men in the Officers
Reserve Corps, which army men gen
orally concede to be one of the most
important single features of the Ma
tional Defense Act
In regard to this corps and the en-
listment of men in IT, Maj Lincoln
spoke on Thursday noon before the
Rotary Club, his address being parti-
ally covered in the Star Bulletin that
day. Further parts of it are included
herewith as Of special interest in this
day OF preparedness propaganda,
Il wish to call your attention espe-
cially to the age provision as it re-
moves the qualification as regards
age from a certain class of men we
are anxious to obtain here" said the
major.
Fifteen days annual service is or
dered by the several department COM
manders under authority of the secre-
tary OF war The heads of the staff
corps and departments may order out
officers OF their corps or departments
who have not been ordered out by the
department commander"
Maj. Lincoln pointed out that there
are two groups for reserve corps of
ficers, one required to take an exami-
nation and one not so required. The
latter are to have special services to
perform. No army or guard officers
will be examined.
He then pointed out the need OF re-
serve corps officers in special lines
as follows:
Engineer corps, including brigade
engineers; constructing engineers, for
concrete, earth, wharf and building
work; railroad construction and main-
tenance engineers; electrical engin-
GERS; highway engineers.
Signal Corps. including aYiators,
aeroplane, designers. and experts in
photography and radio communication.
Quartermaster corps, including traf-
fic managers, accounting experts, rail
road operators. mechanical depart
ments, navigation company officials,
ship captains, narbor captains, truck
companies, groceries, clothing and
shoe business, restaurants and hotels,
banks andNbanking.
Suppose he said. that 5O00.men
volunteer or are called to service with
the colors and that we have made no
plans as to what we will do.
How many businessmen who would
be Of untold value in the special SER
vice of the rear would be with the
troops and not available at the time
we need them?
IF we can organize reserve corps.
many of the problems that we must
consider can re solved in time of
peace. We can assign the officers
to particular lines Of work. A work
ing organization can be formed"
The major suggested frequent meet
ing of the reserve corps at which va
rious problems concerning Hawalts
needs in time OF war would be thresh-
ed out. With competent army officers
TO guide the meetings and offer sug-
gestions on problems from a military
standpoint the work would soon be-
come highly efficient.

1t is pointed out that there was an
apparent large increase with the
Spanish war, a thing partly due to
the influx of recruits and the new
S<nditions surrounding the army, and
to the fact that prior to 1900 practi-
cally all admissions to sick report for
renereal diseases we're based ON men
actually ircapacitated, as no physical
inspections were then made and many
cases were concealed and self-treated
and others were prescribed for but
not recorded except as disability.
Other complications were not rightly
recognized and were given other head
ings.
From these figures it is evident
that there is no subject of proven
tive medicine CT greater important ID
the army than that of venereal dis
eases, and that if civil life takes this
matter properly in hand with the men
prior TO enlistment, our duties would
be much lightened, as probably 81
per cent of our men have suffered
therefrom before joining.
The tale that army life tends to
debauch youth is false, continues the
speaker. Take the average age or
enlistment as at %; you have in the
five or six years immediately proceed
ing contracted - to 81 per cent of these
diseases. OIL. at a rate of II to Is per

Our figures in Hawaii show that
out of 1888 in a year and half there
were contra cted 600 new cases, or to
the extent of 6.S3 per cent per year,
cne-half the rate contracted prior to
entry i. .....
