OFFICERS FOR
FOREST B4TTALIONSI
Are Recommended By Forest Service to
the War Depart
mani

II is announced by the forest service
that il has been able to comply in full
with the request of the war department
for assistance in securing qualified lum-
bermen and foresters to serve as Off
GERS for the forest battalions which are
to comprise a part of the American over
seas forces. Three hundred and nine men
have been recommended for commissions
in the grades of major, captain, first lieu
tenant, and second lieutenant. OF these,
two.thirds are practical mmbermen or
sawmll operators and one-third are
trained foresters with long woods expert
ence. Some of the lumbermen who were
recommended have also had theoretical
training in forestry and many of the Tor
esters have had experience in logging or
sawmilling.
In the selection of qualified lumber.
men the forest service has had the close
60 operation of subcommittee of the
lumber committee of the council of ma
tional defense and of fourteen commit
tees of lumbermen in different parts of
the country. Almost every man selected
was interviewed by a lumberman's com
mittee or by the forest service officials.
Many private foresters and forest schools
have assisted in finding technical forest
ers suitable for commissions. All of the
men recommended have, by successful
experience shown themselves capable of
handling some important phase of lum-
bering, sawmill, or technical forest work,
according to officials of the forest service.
All have proved by experience their quail
tiles of leadership and their ability to
handle men in large numbers.
Every timber region of the United
States has contributed its share of the
men who have been nominated for Off
GERS and it is believed that every class |
of numbering, from the smallest portable
mill operation to the largest and most !
up-to date plant, is represented Among /
those selected are men experienced in
logging and saving every merchantable
wood growing in this country.
The age limits set in the beginning
required that all officers of the forest
should be thirty-one years of
ige or older. Because of the difficulty

If the men recommended as leutenants

i've, as captains from thirty TO forty and
IS majors from forty to fifty.
Men who have been recommended have

egards physical examination, the issu-
nee of commissions. and the order in
which the successful applicants win be
allied for service rests with the war de-

tees are now working to that end
The entire territory is now deep
e- in the debt of the Civic League
of Morgan City for the splendid SER
les of entertainments which were
concluded Monday. War cond:' ::ons,
however, are retarding the arrange
ments for a 1918 Chautauqua which
would otherwise be perfected
promptly and enthusiastically. No
citizen is of the opinion that the
Chautauqua is not wanted and as
the Redpath Society is making a
liberal provision in the proffered
1918 contract for cancellation in
the event of that future develop
ments should prove that the Chau-
tauqua is not desirable.
