senior grades but based on a strength
of 1850 and the terms of existing
law only $500 can be kept in these
grades.
After a careful study Of this
situation it has been found that
about 1900 of the senior non-com-
missioned officers of the Army are to
be denoted unless some increase in
authorized numbers is made. or
course, this demotio2 will carry with
it such a loss Of pay and prestige as

them to continue on the work now

Sc serious not only on account of the
work on which they are to be en-
rloyed but is such an injustice to the
men themselves who as a class have
long years of service to their credit
and are nearly all veterans. that the

to amend the National Defense Act
