To Precede Troops

General Pershing and his staff will sail for Europe ahead of the troops to pave the way for final training of the huge army the United States is preparing to pour across the seas as rapidly as men can be trained and equipped.
 For obvious reasons. no informa- ton as to the time of the American commanders departure or his destin- ation will be made public. When General Pershing leaves, every detail of the organization and equipment of his troops will have been worked out. Presumably he will have wide discre- tionary powers to cooperate with com manders of the French, British and Belgian forces.
 While attention here was centered on these immediate matters today the whole strength of the federal and state organizations was being pre- pared to complete military census on June 5 of the 10,000,O00 men from whom will be selected 500,0O0 for the war army

Daniels Is Gratified

For purposes of distinction the war department has named the new force the national army"
 Secretary Daniels, in expressing qualification that the President had designated a regiment of marines to accompany the expeditionary force. said the step should further simu- late recruiting in the marine corps.
 "The marines are well equipped and are ready for duty in France. Their recent service in Nicaragua, Santo Domingo. Haiti and Cuba has kept them in good trim, they are seasoned troops and have been eager to go with the first force sent to Europe.
