the Infantry Drill Regulations to be more energetic''-''firm in tone and brief" In other words and in plain, unmilitary English, the Command of Execution must sound like a pistol shot and authoritative in the extreme, bringing instant obedience from the soldier.
 A short interval should always elapse between the Preparatory Command and the Command of Exc cution. In the Drill Regulations. the former Is printed in black, italics and the latter in black capitals.
 sS A command Is given as follows:f
 "Forword ..... MARCEL" "About .... FACET Column Right MARCH!' Cleft Obliquc .... .. MARCH:" "Rigllt Shoulder ..... ARMs"' Company (squad) ...... HALjT!"
 When, as is the case in few in- stances the command is a single word, it Is divided by syllables into a Preparatory Command and Conn mand of Execution. Thus. "Atten- tion'' is pronounced:
 "Atten .... TION!' !.
 Commands, Signals or Orders are the three classes of directions given v roOps-many commands being by Signals. These Signals may be con- veyed either by a whistle, the bugle, prescribed motions of the command ing officers arms, or by flags. An order is employed only when the commands prescribed do not sum- ciently indicate the will of the com mander. In other words. commands are of 8 limited and more or less rigid nature, while special instructions to one7or more men constitute an Order. This may be communicated either by word of mouth. in writing, by tele- phone, telegraph, or by flag signals. Copyright, 1917, by the Wheeler Syndicate, Incl

SEEKS ARREST OF
 BANKING OFFICIALS
Insurance Commissioner of Penneyl- vania Asks Receiver For Pitts-
 burgh LAfe Trust Company.

Pittsburgh, May 2-J. Denny O'Neil, insurance commissioner of Pennsyl- vania. today took charge of the Pitts burgh Life Trust company. Late yes- terday applied to the county court for an, order prohibiting the company from doing further business and ask ing for the appointment of a receiver. Temporary orders were granted today and Monday was set as the date for the hearing.
 He also went before a magistrate and asked for the arrest of six per- sons whom he charged with diverting the funds of the company. These names were given as Clarence F.. Birdseye. New York; Kellogg Birds eye, treasurer of the company; George ident of the Commercial Trust com pany of New York; Albert Leury of New York, a director of the company; and W. D. McQuestion and MT. Watson. It was said that no arrest had yet been made.
 The story. as explained by MT. O'Neil, is that Clarence F. Birdseye opened negotiations for the purchase of the Dare Lumber company in North Carolina several months ago and arr ranged to obtain from the insurance company $1,900;0O0. A million dol lars of this according to the commits sioner was put into the lumber com pany and bonds were issued on the strength of the investment Of these bonds $300,O0O were placed in the treasury as security for the loan and $4oO,00O of the remainder was paid to dummy directors, who had been selected to put through the deal.

The execution of a command depends a great deal upon the way in which 1t Is given. While it is true that green soldiers may not be able to execute in Q clean-cut way a command which has been properly given, even veteran troops will become slipshod If a com mand is mumbled or drawled in Q spiritless fashion by their commander. This would be the fault of the officer. for the work of soldier is credit to, or reflection upon, the ability of his officer. Nevertheless, if a sol- dier will not apply his intelligence and responsiveness to the words he hears in short. if he goes to sleep on his feet-then the best officer in the world can not make a real soldier of him.
 Every command Is divided into two parts, or, into two separate com- mands. The first is called the pre- paratory command-the second the command of execution.
 The preparatory command is in- tended to inform the soldier of the movement which is to be executed. It should be given with a rising in flection. for 1t not should inform the soldier. but it should bring his facul- ties to boise for instant response to the second half of the command. or the command of execution.
 The rising infection has the effect of balancing tho soldier-psychologi- cally-on the edge of the movement. Tot he must not twitch muscle. on receiving 1t. The whole movement Is damaged if one soldier anticipates the command of execution or even ex- hibits nervous shiftings of the hands and feet.
 The Command of Execution is given at the precise instant the movement is to commence.
 While the tone of the Preparatory Command must be animated" the Command of Execution Is required by

Soldiers May Be Sent Out to
 Watch Strategic Points

Tentative arrangements under dis cussions by the. authorities may re- suit in members of the infantry conn- panies, on duty in this city and vicin- ity, taking the place of numerous sc- pernumerary and special policemen assigned to guard duty nightly at the reservoirs, gas and electric light plants as we'll as other places that have been under close watch since the outbreak, of war with Germany. It became known today that the taking up of the matter with military authorities is likely to come soon. Those favorinx the use of the soldiers say that there Nis seemingly no reason why New Brit ain can not receive the same guard service as other cities of the state and thereby have released for other duties the guards and special officers supor- vised by the local police department. Also. to have heavy responsibilities shifted from the shoulders of the po-, lice department to those of the so1- diers. s
 It is contended that there are sum- cient soldiers available that can we'll be used while the facilities of the po- lice department are taxed to the nnak attending to the rapidly increasink duties Of this branch of municipal a4- tivity. Placing and supervision W guards generally occupies considerable time of apparatus and executive heax1S of the police that may, some of tn latter say. prove costly in an emetk gency. Then, too. there Is much addE tional clerical work connected witA the furnishing of special and supeH
 numerary officers in response to rS- quests.
 According to the records of tho safety-board there are about 15O of these special guards and supernumers ary officers on duty at local factories and municipal plantA The board has been occupied several weeks in make ing the appointments, seeing that thes, have been properly sworn in and rel-
 atiye to defining their duties. It q
 expected that this work is now prac-
 ttcally completed. Many of the men have been appointed from lists f,rra

Bridgeport, May 2.-The Slovak Political and Civic League of Bridge port has just been incorporated with about 400 members and will hold a mass meeting this evening. The pur- poses of the organization. as set forth in the constitution, are to edu- cate those that are already American citizens to strongest loyalty by lectures and night classes; to educate and en- courage these still aliens so that they will soon become citizens; and to in- struct all members in the principles of federal, state and municipal govern ment. The membership consists of active, or naturalized men, and pro- pective, or those still aliens. A propo- ganda for the organization of similar leagues in other Slovak centers will be started soon.

a year, we believe that In the long run democracies are more economical than monarchies.
 There is talk now that King Con- stanttne is about to abdicate in favor of the Crown Prince. Democracy Is the footing is secure enough the King may be saved the trouble of willing his throne to the prince. Once the main cause of trouble is out of the way the people will not be so ready to pay the expenses of another. The example of the Czar in Russia should be sufficient warning for the King of Greece. The wives of both are pro- German to the nth degree. Because of this, Nicholas met his downfall. The same conditions in the household of Constantine may prove his undoing. With Nicholas gone, with Constantine going, and with the throne shaking beneath Wilhelm, the people of Europe are in. 2 fair way of being better of because of the war, costly as the war may be. ! No matter how expensive, 1t will be cheap if in the long run royalty is sent to the scrap heap. All ths graft that democracy in Europe could breed could not com- pare one iota to the expense that must so hand in hand with parasitic royalty. Twenty million dollars h year for Nicholas. forty million dollars a year for Wilhelm. and like sums for Con- stantine and other rulers,-this in- deed, Is too much for too little. There Is but one king in all Europe worth his salt and he is Albert of Belgium.
