FOR THE RESERVE CORPS.
Plans to Recruit Fifty Officers From
Each Congressional District.

Plans to recruit at least fifty members
in the Reserve Officers Corps with rank
Of lieutenant or captain, in each con-
gressional district, within the next sixty
days were announced yesterday by the
War Department The department plans
to have an examining board in places
where fair number of applications are
filed.
AN examination is necessary" says a
department statement, but inasmuch as
personality and probable efficiency are
given great weight by the regular army
officers who conduct the examination,
there Is no reason why eligible men
should hesitate to apply for commits
sions on account of being rusty or even
deficient on technical military matters.
Practical experience under the regular
army would remedy this. The important
thing - to appoint men Of character and
force"
