was retained in the army bill 1t was
originally proposed by Senator Hoke
smith, OF Georgia, and was adopted by
the Senate. But the House conferees. or
al least Chairman Hay. was opposed
to the provision. 1t is understood that
Secretary Baker appeared before the con-
teTees and urged its adoption.
As step toward inaugurating the sys-
tenn. the Secretary will shortly appoint
a committee Of educators who have been
interested in vocational training II is
understood that three or four OF the
most prominent vocational professors
have agreed to serve on this committee
The report Of the committee will be sub
mttted to the General staff and through
the joint efforts OF the educators and the
military authorities the Secretary ex-
poets to develop a system which will be
adapted to the army
The Secretary thinks that such a sys-
TEN will attract a great many ambitious
Young men to the service and greatly IA
cilitate recruiting. In his opinion such
a system can be maintained without in
terfering with the efficiency Of the reg
ular army.
