EVEN IF NOT 81.
Intelligent and Forceful' Men Are
Wanted for Next Training Camp.

Washington, ID. c., July 6.--Convinced
that many desirable men are holding
back their applications for the second
officers training camp because of mis-.
conception of the requirements, Adit.
Gen. Mccain issued statement last
night making it clear that intelligent
and forceful" men are wanted even if
they are under 81 years of age and with
out military training.
The previous statement of the war
department that it will be difficult for
men within the draft age or without
military experience to gain admission
to the camps has resulted, officials be-
lieve, in ap impression that applications
from such men will not be considered
On the contrary, it is pointed out, those
of administrative active ability in civil
ian pursuits ranging in age from rs up
ward, are type earnestly desired.
Gen. McCain's statement was given out
through the public information commit.
tee with a request that the newspapers
give it prominence because success of the
second camp series depends on correction
of the prevailing misconception. 1t fol-
lows:
'The statement that mature men will
be given preference for the series of OIL
GERS training camps seems to have been
misunderstood in some quarters. This
preference will only apply where qualifi
cations are equal. There is no intention
to bar out applications by men under 81.
In fact, examining officers have been in
structed to regard the ages % to 35 as
the most suitable. There is also some
misunderstanding about the necessity of
previous military experience. The gov
eminent is looking primarily for intelli-
gent and forceful men and military ex-
perience, though desirable, is not strict
ly necessary"
Applications for these camps will close
on July Is.

the day. which was attributed 20 undo
