centage Of 101.55 per cent. OF the six
geographical locations in this corps
area the District of Columbia, out of
an authorized quota of 154, has OBJ
tanned a total Of 287. or 1851 per

Telegraphic instructions were sent
this week to Lieut.. Col. John Scott,
Infantry, executive officer for the Or
ganiZed Reserves in Washington, by
Maj. Gen. Samuel D. Sturgis, com
manding general of the Third Corps
Area, to discontinue at once further
Citizens Military Training Camp pro-
curement except for qualified appli-
cants for Coast Artillery at Fort Mon
roe, Va, and the Engineer Corps at
Fort Humphreys, Va. The order dis
continuing the citizens military train
ing camp procurement activities in
the District of Columbia was due to
the excess number of applications
which have been received at reserve
headquarters.
Those young men residing in the
District of Columbia who have filed
their applications to attend the ap-
preaching citizens military training
camps. and who have experienced a
delay in the Acknowledgement there

eral Interpretation of this provision.
AS a result of this advance decision
preparation is now being made by
board of Marine Corps general officers
of an eligible list of colonies for ap-
pointment to brigadier generals or
staff department heads.
Publication of this eligible list OF
colonels for promotion to brigadier
general will not be made, according
to the present plans of Marine Corps
headquarters. Those officers who are
not selected for promotion, under the
act, will upon their attainment Of GER
tain ages be retired, which in the case
of colonies is Sc years. Many colonels.
it is pointed out, have at least 10
years to serve before they will reach
the age of retirement in grade and
should they be placed on the list at
any time during this 10-year period
they will occupy a status which will
not call for their retirement at the
56-year limit and they will continue
in active service until they attain the.
statutory retirement age limit.
1T is not contemplated to apply this
provision to augment the number Of
retirements, but rather to establish a
policy which will increase the eff
cheney of the corps. That the corps in
tends to give every officer concerned
ample opportunity to comply with
the promotion requirements of the
Marine Corps is shown in that those
colonies who find that they are not on
the eligible list will be virtually noti-
fled that they are not maintaining the
required standard of efficiency of the
corps. He will be given to under
stand, however, that he will be given
an opportunity to improve his eff
cheney In the next year to place his
name on this Hst. In commenting
upon this subject the controller said
in part:
1T Is apparent that If construed
literally some parts of this paragraph
are meaningless and without applica-
ton, and that the net results of it's
provision is to fix the measure of re-
tired pay of the officers concerned un-
reasonably out of proportion with the
retired pay provided for officers simi-
larly retired in the preceding part of
section Z. A percentage equal to 212
per centum of the officers pay cannot

exceed rs per centum of his pay 1t
Is apparent, therefore, that the pro-
visions In this paragraph relative to
method of computation and the limita
tion on percentage are meaningless
and without effect If required to be
construed literally as the text reads.
THE major general commandant
Marine Corps, In letter Of April "a,
1925, requesting decision constituting
this paragraph, states that q bill con-
taining the subject matter thereof as
originally introduced in the House
contained after the words equal to
2h per centum the words for each
year of total active service that the
provisions Of that bill were incorpo-
rated as a section in the omnibus bill
In the Stxty-seventh Congress, failed
OF passage, and when reintroduced in
the Sixty-eighth Congress, these words
were inadvertently omitted from the
bill.
In reporting out H r. 1864 to the
Senate on January 26, 1923, the Sen
ate naval committee included among
It's amendments section IS, which en-
braces the following subject matter
of the paragraph in question:
That any officer Of the grade or
rank OF colonel whose name is not
borne on one Of the current eligible
lists for appointment as brigadier gen.
eral or head of a staff department
shall, II more than Sc years of age, be
retired with a percentage of the pay
received by him at the date of retire
ment equal to 2k per centum for
each year Of total active service not
to exceed IS per centum"
In conclusion, the controller said
that the intent of section is, to pro-
vide eligible lists for promotion of Off
q
eligible for promotion with a reduced
retired pay based upon their service
prior to retirement. The rate of re-
tired pay is uniformly fixed at 2h per
centum for each year of service. The
omission of the words for each year
OF total active service in the para
graph relating to colonels may prop
erly be supplied to carry out the in
tent of the law. Payments Of retired
pay SO calculated will be passed in the
disbursing officers accounts IL other

whether they have been accepted for
this training. The delay is due to the
very large number of applications
which have been received. The linn
tied personnel at corps area headquar-
ters has not been able to cope with
this excessive enrolment. and Col.
Scott advises that all citizens mill

THURSTON OPENS MONDAY
AT e. sLISHS FOR WEEK

There is only one Thurston, and
snis will be impressed once again
on tire Indianapolis public next Mon
day evening at which time Thurston,
magician, will begin his nineteenth
annual tour in this city at English's.
For more than two hours the ma
gician will perform seemingly mir
acle after miracle with deftness,
quickness and with apparent open
ness. Thurston is no ordinary stage
trickster; some of his stunts will
appear beyond the power of human
execution.
In this Thurston causes his au-
diences to marvel how he accom-
plishes the results, yet with a smile
and jest he continues piling mys-
terry upon mystery In a manner
which can only be described as
unique and extraordinary.
It. Is said that the uncanny, yet
quite human, Thurston does every
thing that the Oriental wonder
workers ever did, except soar over
head on magic carpet, or ride a
winged horse. Even to that extent
could he fool his patrons, for with
ell the ingenuity Of the modern in
ventor, the fact remains that the
riding on the rug and the flying
horse is a but a trick and very cas-
lily accomplished by Thurston, should
he desire to do so.

the Blue Ridge Mountains. Partic-
ularly, the play has TO do with boy
and girl romance, and the deep
dyed intrigues Of jealous, unsuc-
cessful rival for the girls hand.
The development of the character
of the villain contributes greatly to
the seeping vitality of the play and
lifts it high above the drawing room
sentimental claptrap and the kid
glove love story.
This unusual character, played by
John Hamilton, who won fame in
New York overnight through his re-
markable portrayal, is a religious ia
matte. He Is one of the most humor-
Gus as well as most terrible persons
Of the stage, and, like most trouble
breeders, he convinces himself that
his very act Is inspired by the pur-
est motives. Thus terrifying his
conscience he determines to get rid
Of the young man standing between
himself and the girl he loves. He
attempts to accomplish this by rous-
ing the good-natured brother OF the
girl with liquor and opening up an
old feud between the families Of the
two lovers. In the end he Is uncov-
cred and driven out.
Augustin Duncan rehearsed the
company, and in addition to Mr..
Hamilton the cast includes Gladys
Hurlburt, Frances Brandt, William
Crimans. Buford Armitage, Frank
Farley and Walter Downing.

RESERVE CORPS
COMMISSIONS
To BE WON
Veterans Under 81 Are Given
Chance in "BIue" Course
at Training Camps

Veterans Of the late war who
served longer than one year and
who have not passed the age Of
thirty-one, have chance to obtain
commissions in the reserve corps
by attending the final series of the
citizens military training camps
this summer. according to the ad-
jutant general Of the Army.
The citizens military training
camps have begun to assume this
year an increasing and important
part in the development OF the Of
ficers reserve corps. This is due
to the fact that it is expected that
the enrolment in the blue" or final
series Of camps will be greater than
ever before. It is from the gradu-
ates Of the blue courses, who must
board of examiners, that the re-
serve corps, will gain additional of.
ficers.
World war veterans who have
had more than one year service,
and who have not yet passed the
age OF thirty one years, are afforded
an additional chance to qualify for
a reserve commission through at
tendance at blue camp, which will
serve to refresh their memories.
The month Of intensive training
will then put them in a position,
after successfully completing the
work, to appear before an examin-
ing board and qualify for an ap-
pointment.,
Due to the regulations governing
admission to the reserve corps, as
applied to the general civilian field.
the citizens military training camps
or the future are expected to pro-
duce an ever increasing number OF
young men who will seek and be
given reserve commissions.
Ihls Is now the fifth year Of the
training camps, and the enrollments
Tor the blue course in particular
EhoW an increase which indicates q
developing interest by those who
are desirous OF securing reserve
commissions.

large number Of appeals pending
for review and other actions upon
which decisions are called for.
Before summer adjournment Is
taken decisions are expected on q
number of cases of nationwide i'm
portance.
Among these are:
The Oregon school law requiring
attendance of children under six
teen years of age in the public
schools.
The power of the Senate to en-
force it's orders for investigation OF
the records of a bank, which is
denied by M. s. Daugherty, of Ohio.
The power of the President to re-
move postmasters without the con-
sent of the Senate.
The Oregon school law was de-
clared invalid by the lower Federal
courts and the State appealed.
The bank case grew out Of the
Senate investigation of former At
torney General Harry Daugherty.
