closed on account of the outbreak.

ed to curtail their schedules for the

would have generally been suspended,
and by working next. week, will com
plete the course provided before the

PLAN INTENSIVE
TRAINING COURSE
FOR C. N. C. men
Adj Gen. Cole to Make OPP
portunities for Them In
Big New Army

Training practically equivalent to
that given at Plattsburgh and other
Officers training camps will he given
Connecticut National Guard recruits
from now on, according to a. statement
made today by Ad.-Gen. George M.
Cole. And the result will be, General
Cole said, that many National Guards
men will have an opportunity to pro-
cure officers'- berths in the new army
which will be raised by selective con-
scrdption.
. According to the tentative plan for
this new army, General Cole said, its
officers will be taken from the Ma
tional Guard, the regular army and the
onicers' training camps. The men at
Plattsburgh and the other training
camps are now receiving instructions
which are intended to prepare them
for commissions in this new army.
There Is no reason why men Of the
National Guard who show particular
aptitude for the military life and mill
dtary work should not benefit by the
training they will have and qualify to
be officers In this great national army"
aaid General Cole. Plans are now be-
ing perfected for the establishment of
training camps in which these National
Guard recruits will go and where they
win receive instructions in military
work that will be practically on a par
with Plattsburgh
: Though speak with no official au-
thority, / personally believe that the
young men who enter the National
Guard now and show themselves to be
qualified for it will be selected when
the time comes that the officers are to
be picked for the army which son will
be drafted. The man who enters the
service now will have distinct advan-
tsge over the man who comes in later
or who Is taken for the new army be
cause OF the fact that he has had adj
dftdonal training of the intensive va
riety which we plan to give all re-
crutts from now on
