MANY NEW OFFICERS COMMISSIONED WILL BE SENT 10 FRANCE
Plan Provides for Addi- tional Intensive Training Back of Lines-Review
 of Work Issued

Washington, August 16.-From the 27,00o officers taken from the training camps just closed. a considerable number are being selected to begin immediately in tensive training in France under direc- ton of Major General Pershing. The plan provides for establishing an officers school in the American army area where they can be given intensive instruction similar to that now being given to the regular army contingent already on the ground.
 In addition some of the young officers may be sent to French and British off cers' schools as both governments have expressed their willingness to undertake post graduate work of that nature, in order to aid in the task of expanding the American army.
 Some of the young officers also will be attached to the regular regiments now in France When they have received suf- ficient training they may replace regular officers now in charge of the American units and whose experience would be Of value in the restricted training of the new armies at home. It is also possible that many of the new officers will be sent home as instructors as soon as they have completed training courses in France.
