signal CORPS FIRST
To LEAVE CAMP RADIO
Whole Outfit, with Full Equipment
Could Leave Rosslyn for Border
in About Four Hours-Colored
Troops Almost Ready.

1t is the general opinion at Camp Radio
that the Signal Corps Company, under
the command of Capt. o. C. Terry, will
be the first unit of the District troops
to move for the border.
With more than the required number
Of enlisted men, seventy-five have been
picked for mastering in. 1t Is declared
that IL the order to move for the border
should come. the whole outfit, with full
equipment, could be entrained at Ross
lyn in four hours.
The artillery and cavalry will not be
able to move for at least several weeks,
as the horses must be broken. and the
men given more training.
The infantry could easily get into trim
in about two weeks, when the new equip
ment will probably be received, and could
probably get under way in a week.
The First Separate Battalion will prob
ably be the first infantry to leave the
camp, as they are nearest war strength
at the present time. All units will proba'
bly, be recruited to war strength before
they leave.

LEAVE TODAY FOR
rifle PRACTICE
Two Companies of Guards.
men Will Encamp on Con-
gress Heights Range.

With full infantry equipment and two
days radons, Companies I and X. OF the
Third Regiment of the District Guard.
will leave Camp Radio this afternoon a.
4 o'clock for the Congress Heights rifle
range for training in shooting the army
rifle
Orders have been issued that, two COM
panies at a time, the infantrymen shall
learn the art OF shooting straight while
on the range two days. The men will be
put through the regular course OF train
ing, slow fire at 200, 800, 800 and 600 yards
and rapid fire at 200 and 800. In addition.
combat fire will be practiced II there is
time. This Is close imitation of the
kind of fire that would actually be re-
quired in the field, the squad firing at a
common target under the command OF
the corporal.
Yesterday the sights were explained to
the men, and by means of imitation
sights, consisting of enlarged wooden
models, the correct sighting positions
were shown. Little groups OF interested
men received instruction from the Off
GERS
In pup" tents, the shelter that is car
RED by each man, the companies will
spend two nights on the range. Two days
rations are issued to the men when they
leave, and two cooks will prepare the
food at the range. The men will not
march the ten miles to the range, but
will be transported on the street cars
The return will be made Tuesday even
ing before the camp is asleep.
On Tuesday and Friday afternoons two
other companies will go on the range
for the same instructions and for the
same length of time, and this will be
continued in rotation until the call to
Mexico comes.
The bivouac on the range will be the
first experience OF the men in living as
they will live should they enter Mexico,
with their house on their backs by day,
and sleeping on the bare ground by night

NEW TAX ON SIDEWALK
VAULT SPACES OPPOSED

responsive to the directors Of the board
Of governors OF the Retail Merchants'
Association, a committee consisting of A
Lisner, George S. DeNeale and Secre-
tary Charles ]. Columbus, appeared before
the subcommittee Of the appropriations
committee on the District bill last Thurs
day and made a strenuous appeal that the
rider" imposing an additional tax on
sidewalk vault spaces be set aside
1t was pointed out by the committee
that this would impose an unfair burden
on the business interests OF the commu-
nifty and at the same time would bring
about a great public inconvenience, mas
much as such vaults keep the sidewalks
Of the city free OF obstructions
Secretary Columbus not only testified
at the hearing but has forwarded a letter
to Senator Smith, chairman of the Sc,
nate District Committee.

And that, IN addition TO being too slow.
would be almost criminally dangerous.
The men could be picked of by sharp
shooters without having chance"
At the recruiting stations last night II
was declared that the men now being
taken into the service are of Xceptiopsl-
ly high class. At first IL was expected
that the militia would be overrun with
applicants Of the down and OUT class,
men without work or prospect Of work,
afraid TO join the regular army because
1t entailed three-year enlistment but
jumping at a chance to have mice
trip to the border"
As a matter of fact. APPLICATIONS from
such men have been the exception rather
than the rule. Out of every ten men who
take the oath, nine are leaving positions
to do so. Perhaps 50 per cent OF them
are married, and goodly proportion
have families. In many instances the
wife accompanied the husband, and
watched him make the Jump"
The rate of physical acceptability is
only about 20 per cent. In other words,
out OF every five applicants, four are re-
jected. In practically every instance OF
rejection, the officers say, the rejected
one argues strenuously that his defect is
purely temporary.
One man. rejected because OF poor eye
sight, insisted that the test must have
been inaccurate. He was so insistent that
the test was finally repeated The re-
suits were the same, whereupon the ap-
plicant declared that testing a mans
eyes might be all right in some cases,
but 1t wasn't necessary with him"
II was explained to him that the
militia was as anxious to have him. but
that his acceptance was impossible; that,
even If he were allowed to get by he
would surely be thrown out in the re
examination by United States medical Of
fcers.
While enllstments are coming in with
a speed which officers declare remarka bic,
they still are not coming in fast enough.
The sooner the Guard can reach fits max
imum strength, that much sooner will
they be able TO entrain for the border
Numerous plans are being considered

GUARD OFFICERS REPRovED.

The resentment of certain National
Guard officers against the order calling
out detachments from camps instead OF
permitting all State troops to go to-
eether received very little consideration
at the War Department. One ranking
officer said:
Tell these officers who are complaining
that their first duty now is to obey orders
and keep their mouths shut
The order is for troops to be sent
when ready and the department COM
manders will follow that rule and get
available regiments to Gen. Funston as
expeditiously as possible. 1t is not a
question of doing what certain officers
Of the National Guard think ought to be
done They should stop growing If they
are soldiers"

FAIR CAMP VISITORS
TRAMP THROUGH MUD

Many fair visitors to Camp Radio yes
terday evening entered smiling, in white
dresses and white shoes, and left over
sticky. muddy roads, under the army
poncho of their soldier sweethearts, with
dress and shoes bedra ggled.
The rain changed the dust that hung
in clouds over the camp into a sea OF
mud. A shunshiny day will turn mud into
dust again. Many visits tos the camp
were prolonged by the rain or cut short
by the approaching cloud. The Y. NJ. C.
A. tent, was a refuge for many couples.
An auto was suck in the mud and the
guard had to be called out to release it.
The usual Guard mount with the band
playing with the crowd of visitors ana
soldiers as spectators. was omitted on
account of the rain and there was only
an ifformal relief of the guard. Com
pany Z, of the Third Regiment went on
guard. with Capt. J. W. Oehmann as
officer of the day, and First Lieut.. W.
L. Hazard as officer of the guard.

tered yesterday to the troops who did
not get shot" on Friday. Two more in
jections are due the men to complete
the treatment, each larger than the first.
They may be given from seven to ten
days apart, but it is likely, in view of
the possibility of the troops being sent
to the border, that seven days will be
the interval.
The first dose administered consisted OF
One-half centimeter, the second will be
one centimeter, and the third will be two
centimeters of the dead germ-laden
