grade. Admiral Barber is president of
the board which in the next few weeks
will pass upon the records of many
about sixteen of those who shall be ad-
Vanced, several to the rank of captain.
and their promotion will leave vacancies
all the way down the line. The diff
culties of this board are great. Medical
officers in this war have. as a class, done
all that they were expected to do for
the service. Some have had opportunity
to perform duties spectacular in nature.
and they quite naturally hope to receive
reward for work we'll done. Others
who. it is elsily believed, would have
done equally well had opportunity
smiled upon them have claims through
years of faithful service to recognition.
The board has the one question to an
swer, and that will guide it in it's course.
That question is. What will be best for
the Naval Medical Corps"
Admiral Barber comes from Las Ami
mas, Col, to preside over this board.
There he is in charge of the naval hos
pital for tuberculosis patients. This
institution is one of the most complete
in the world for the proper treatment
of such cases. 1t is equipped for the
care of 500 patients, and is in charge of
500 at the present time. Admiral Bar
Der says that the great difficulty is that
he has no authority to retain patients
in the hospital a sufficiently long time
to do them the most good. Especially
those who have served in the naval re-
serve and who are eager to return to
business, cannot be convinced that. be-
cause the symptoms are reduced, they
are not wholly cured. and they leave
only to break down again. There is no
remedy for this condition. The Navy
offers the best that any institution can
give for the treatment of such cases.
but the men become homesiCk, and that
is an unfavora BILE condition. The result
is that the hospital officers are unable
to detain them against their will, and
they leave to their own great danger.

use of military and civilian medical
men in their studies and research work
The collection will require the use of
eight large glass cases, and will include
ehronologiCally a complete series of ev-
cry type of compound microscope from
1880 to date. The microscope is used in
all medical scientific work, and the ex-
hibt will strikingly show it's develop
ment by type The exhibit will include
all models Italian, English, French
Dutch, of the olden days, and the most
modern types also, and will comprise
some several hundred specimens.
Alongside this exhibit there will be
three cases of medical instruments, ana
tomical models and pathological speci-
mems.

BERGER BEFORE COMMITTEE.
Says Pleading for Neutrality
Should Not Bar Socialists.

Victor Berger of Milwaukee, whose
right to a seat in the House of Rep
reSentatives is being contested be-
cause of his conviction for violation
of the espionage act, told the special
House investigating committee yes
terday that if democrats and republic
cans who voted against war were al

could not be barred because they had

Yes, and l am glad of it," Berger
replied.

Rapid Reduction
of the U. S. Army.

! departmental answer to the action of
! Congress as manifested lin the -fmy
| appropriation bill or absolutely neces-
! sary to bring the Army down to "a size
where the funds appropriated by Con-
gress will pay the bills is hardly mat
ter for debate. The condition that con-
| fronts the Army is that it must de-
mobilize at a very rapid rate, and that
in so doing it will be left short of Off
GERS especially trained for certain duties.
To complicate matters, many officers,
ut is learned, are rendering their reSig-
nations from the Army-especially those
of younger age and junior commissions.
The feeling with them appears to be
that they have seen the one great war
emergency that is likely to come in their
lifetimes, and that peaceful vocations
offer the big inducements. They recog-
nize the fact that the nation has no
military policy and that there is little
inducement to them to devote their lives
to profession that is unstable.
If their designations are accepted it
means that the Army will have diff
Guilty in supplying their places. for with
the reduction of rank the tendency of
officers from civil life holding temporary
commissions is to accept the f1attering
offers coming to them to return to their
former occupations. Thus the condition
of things is to drive from the Army the
virile and energetic young officers
whether from civil life or from the regu-
lar establishment.
With a view to relieving such a state
of affairs. Senator Walsh of Massa-
chusetts has introduced a bill to pro-
vide that the commissioned personnel of
no corps or department of the Army
reed be reduced below the authorized
peace-time strength. 1t proposes to
authorize the Secretary of War to re-
tain in the service sufficient number
of officers holding temporary commits
sions. who are applicants for permanent
appointments, and to retain at their
temporary grade sufficient to fill the va
rious authorized grades established for
such corps or department.

terms of the appropriat ton bill. Those
men who served as enlisted men in the
United States Army or in the organized
militia of the several states since April
| 6, 1917, if honorably discharged, within
SIX months after July II, 1919 may en-
list in the National Guard for a period
of one year and may re-enlist for like
periods.
| All other qualified men may enlist for
one year or for three years, provided
that the enlistmentS are one-third for

exclusive of the service men who have
the right of enlisting for a year. These
enlistments carry with them no oblga =
ton to serve in the National Guard re-
serve. This last provision seems to
foreshadov the end of the National
! Guard reserve
The shortening of the enlistment
period may be productive of good re-
suits or of direct harm to the success
! OF the National Guard. and it is almost
| impossible to tell in what way it will
work out. If the short enlistment causes
an influx of seasoned veterans to the
ranks OF the guard, if it adds to the
humDer OF trained commissioned
CtfIcers, the result will be of incalcula BILE
heneht to the organization. If. on the
other hand. it merely inducts into the
guard lot of short enlistment men,
, who in their brief term will gain little
SoldlerlE experience and have practically
no field training, the effect upon the
National Guard will be almost de-
moralZing. Therefore it behooves all
interested in the creation and main
tenance of the National Guard to eXer-
else the utmost care in the selection of
applicants for the new units which will
soon be coming into life throughout the
country.
The term "organzed militia" is
understood to mean military organiza
tons in which soldiers are regularly en-
listed which are maintained and recog-
nlZed as organized militia by the state,
territorial or district authorities.

THE CUMN0CK SCHOOL
PLANNING SUMMER
SESSION FOR VISITORS

Many who are expecting to spend
the summer on the coast are glad to
hear that Cumnock school in Los An
geles, Calf, not only is planning a
summer session, but will open its
home to resident students.
There are rare opportunities for
study along lines of expression, lit
erature, languages, music, art and
dancing, each of which has a standard
of scholarship recognized and approv-
ed, both by the University of Califor-
MIA and by the California state board
of education. Yet the vacation spirit
is maintained by the various interest
ing recitals and dramatic programs
included in the fascinating social life
that has its INSPIRATION in that art
center.
Situated as it is in the beautiful
Wiltshire district, the school is apart
from the confusion of the city and en-
joys the cool sea breezes. Its spa
cious lawns and porches, its restful
halls and studios invite to study and
relaxation. The members of the ia
Guilty who contribute so generously to
the social life, as well as to the class
room ARE Miss Jane E, Farley, Miss
Dora A. Halter, Miss Charlotte
Brooks, Miss Ethel Phillips and Miss
Helen Crane Hardisonn. And then
there is the gentle hostess, the direc-
tor, Miss Helen A. Brooks, to be in
contact with whom means richer
appreciation of art and culture.
There in informal fashion, one
meets such a genius as the composer,
Charles Wakefield Cadman, or the
charming Zoellner family, whose dis
tinguished father sons and daughter
comprise the great Zoellner quartette,
known both here and abroad. And,
this season, as last. Calvin Brainerd
Cady is to be associated with Cumnock
school. Rarely does a teacher in the
southwest have an opportunity Tor
vacation study with such master
mind as his. For years associated
with the best university life in the
east and abroad. Mr.. Cadv is now the
head of the Music Education Associa-
ton of America He plans his classes
during the summer for all teachers,
as we'll as for musicians, though some
are privileged to study piano and har-
mony privately with him.

Knights of Columbus Arrange
to Provide Amusement for

VIII Also Have Chapel

The gassed soldiers who are under
going treatment at Murphey's sanato-
rum are to have recreation hall and
chapel for holding religious services,
it was annouced Saturday, following
the visit to Albuquerque of Jay e..
Fox, field inspector for the knights of
Columbus Mr. Fox came here with
full authority to construct a building
at the expense Of the government, but
this plan had to be abandoned when
it was found that the soldiers here
were being cared for by the war risk
insurance bureau on private property.
as the government will not permit the
expenditure of funds for recreation
buildings on sites not federally owned
or controlled. Consequently arrange
ments We're made to have the ex-
pense of constructing the building
borne by DR.. w T. Murphey and the
Knights of Columbus.
The size of the structure has not
been announced, but it will cost APP
proximately $4,000. The Knights of
Columbus will furnish the plans and
specifications, and have also agreed
to make an appropriation to provide
a chapel within the building, in which
mass will he said on Sunday for all
soldiers who are members of the
Catholic church. There are about
thirty-two of these at the sanatorium
at the present time. As soon as the
structure has been finished knights
of Columbus secretary will be sta
toned here in charge of the hut and
he will devote all of his time to its
management and looking after the
welfare of the soldiers. He will be
paid by the Knights of Columbus.
1t is expected that there will be
movie" shows given at least three
times week. There will be a reading
room with all the latest magazines
and daily newspapers. A circulating
library from which books may be
taken by the soldiers also will be one
of the features. Games of all kinds
will be available. The secretary will
have on hand a supply of cfgarets,
candy, writing paper, envelopes and
handkerchefs.
In fact, the recreation hall will be
similar to the ones maintained at reg
ular army camps at home and abroad,
which have made the Knights of Co
lumbus famous as good fellows
among the soldiers, and the familiar
slogan. Everybody Welcome-Every-
thing Free" will apply here the same
as it has applied to other knights of
Columbus huts during the war. All
soldiers will be welcome to make free
use of the building and its facilities.
The Knights of Columbus will ar
range for a chaplain to say mass in
the chapel every week and provide a
regulation K of C. mass kit.
