RESERVE HEADS
OPPOSE WAR
BUREAU
D. C. Association Votes Down
Proposal for cO-ordi-
mating Agency

Local reserve officers of the army
do not favor the plan of the Re-
serve Officers Association of the
United States to have an agency
instituted in the War Department
along similar lines of the militia
bureau, for the reserve. AT one
of the recent meetings of the Re-
serve officers Association of the
district of Columbia, that body
voted down the proposition as ad-
vocated.
For a long time high-ranking
officials of the Reserve Officers
Association of the United States
have been advocating changes to
improve the status of reserve Off
GERS and the establishment of CO.
ordinating agency in the office OF
the chief of. staff or the Secretary
OF war. to act as a stabilizer be.
tween the regular army and the
reserves.
Renewed impetus was given the
project by the recommendations IN
the annual report of Brigadier Gen
eral John Ross Delafield, president
of the Reserve Officers Association,
inst released for publication, which
followed his talk to the annual
convention of the association III
Omaha this past week Many con-
ferences have been held by General
.skl, Arti nO
War Davis, and Major General
John l.. Hines. chief-of-staff or the
army. over the project.
One result of the conference mas
resulted in a decision of the war
Department to increase the NUM-
Der of reserve officers on active
duty by seeking legislation to add
three more officers to the general
staff one on every corps area com
mander's staff, one in the ad1utant
generals office and four In otflce
of chiefs of other branches OF the
army. a total of seventeen addlt1onai
reserve officers authorized to De
kept on active duty, it has been
learned by The Washington Times.
THE organized reserve branch is
by far the largest component
of the army of the United states,
There are now 96,667 reserve Off
GERS, OF which number 6,955 have
a dual status by also being members
of the National Guard. In the
entire regular army and Natlonal
Guard there are less than 25,O0O
officers.
1t is therefore contended that
the growth of the reserve necess1-
tates expansion of the methods of
with the regular army,
and it is this reason that General
Delafield has put forth his recon-
nendation for a reserve bureau in
the War Department. However,
the local reserve organization feels
that it is for the best interest or the
reserve movement to have the AT
fairs of the reserve handled by the
chiefs of the branches concerned.
