FOR SERVICE UNDER 7. R.
Former President DiSCIoSeS
Some of His Plans for
Proposed Division

NEW YORK, April ST. Roosevelt,
prospective commander of division of
American troops. already has listed
So, 900 applicants for service under him,
according to Lieutenant ]. w. O'Ma-
honey, of the New York national guard.
O'Mahoney conferred with Roosevelt
last night at oyster Bay and revealed
details Of the coloners plans today
for the first time. He quoted the former
president as saying he would lead his
boys right up to the battlefield, but
that he didn't intend they should get
into action until fully seasoned-this
seasoning process being best obtained
somewhere near the front where they
could hear the rumble of guns. cries
of wounded, and shrieks of the dying"
In that way, O'Mahoney said, the colonel
believed that If there were any yellow"
ones in the command they would be
weeded out.
According to O'Mahoney the Roose
Welt division will consist of a brigade
each of infantry, cavalry and artillery,
a battalion of engineers. transport train
and aviation corps. The $4,000 men
who have already volunteered to join the
division come from every section of the
country

Applications from many of Atlanta's
young men who are endeavoring to be-
come officers in the various branches
coming into the recruiting stations of
the city very rapidly the last few days,
and from the number who have applied,
Atlanta is bound to have many represen-
tatives as regular officers in the forth
coming big army, navy and marine
corps.
Captain G. V. Heidi has application
second lieutenants and also full data
and information which he will be glad
to give 20 anyone who is eligible and
interested.
Lieutenant H. R. Keller, of the navy,
and Lieutenant Colvocoresses, of the
marine corps. will also gladly explain
what is necessary for a man to do
become an officer in either of these
branches.
While Wednesdays hard rains some
what dampened the ardor of recruiting,
Thursday found many applicants IN
the three stations ready to be examined
for duty. Wednesday the averaee of
all three stations fell away considerably
from the number which have been APP
plying. and according to the officers in
charge it was due to the weather.

the number of applicants is always no

Keller, and stated that they were GER

APRIL RECRUITING LARGE.
Captain Heidi stated Thursday morn
ing that it was extremely likely that
the war department would furnish the
Atlanta Office with another commissioned
officer to help handle the number of re-
cruits. In discussing this subject, he
said:
I'VE have sent exactly 102 men to Fort
Thomas already during April, a third as
many as we sent during the entire
month of March, and, from present indi-
cations. II looks like we will continue
to increase for the rest of the month
making II absolutely essential that an
assistant officer be supplied the Atlanta
office.
give hundred men is the mark I have
set this month, and / intend to have
that number. Five days have elapsed,
