PLAN TREASURE HUNT.

HULL. England. March 17.--Headed
by John Riley OF this town, a party
of business men are planning an Elk

to eight inches thick and weighing
probably hundreds Of tons.
Riley claims to have discovered the

able score of 33S out of a possible
$50, came within five points of the
world record for individual marks
manship. Lieut.. Stark, commanding
Company f, was a close second, with
S21 points. An illustration of the
high degree of range work displayed
by these two companies can be real
lied by recalling to mind that the
highest individual score for record
practice in the Army is 343, which
was made by Capt. c. NJ. Easley of
the 31st Infantry in 1924.
The hundreds of applications for
stations received by the remount
service from all sections of the coun-
try indicates a most remarkable
breeding of light horses, operated by
the Quartermaster Corps, which is
entering upon the fourth year of it's
existence. Beginning with l59 stall
lions at stud in 1921, this increased
to 219 in 1922, to 179 in 1923 and to
345 in 1924. For the 1925 season
there will be available for the use
of the farmers and breeders of the
Nation $50 excellent stations.
II is difficult to estimate the extent
and value of the service being rem
dered to the horse industry by the
Government through the horse-breed-
ing plan which is now being oper-
ated with such signal success by the
QuartermaSter Corps. From its very
inception the American Remount AS
ISOLATION has heartily co-operated
with the Quartermaster Corps: it has
assisted in the placing of stations
in desirable localities and through
the generosity of its members has
been able to provide the Government
with number of outstanding stall
lions which ordinarily could not have
been purchased at any price. For
several years past the association, in
order to encourage breeding, has
generously donated from trust funds
provided for the purpose by the sew
eral racing associations in New York
Kentucky and Maryland cash prizes
at numerous State and county fairs
and horse shows throughout the
country for the best colts sired by
remount stations exhibited at these
shows.

rant officer examination, United
States Coast Guard; February Is, has
been completed, and appointments to
the extent of service requirements
will shortly be issued to those stand
ing highest on the respective lists.
The following number have passed
the mental, professional and adapta-
bility examinations for the grades
indicated: One hundred and forty-one
for boatswain (T), 8 for gunner Cd
and "a for pay clerk tT). 1t is ex-
pected that appointments to the num-
Der of 80 boatswains (T), gunners
(T( and II pay clerks CD will be
made as the result OF this examina-
ton.
In accordance with a recent Bureau
of Navigation letter to the service. all
but 80 qualified naval aviation pilots
have been transferred to the rating
of aviation pilot, and of this number
IS are on the bureaus eligibility lists
for chief petty officer ratings.
AS it has been pointed out by the
bureau that il is most desirable that
all men be rated in accordance with
their qualifications, decision has been
made to waive the requirement of
holding a chief petty officer rating in
the case of the IS men mentioned, and,
if otherwise fully qualified, their
ratings will be changed to aviation
pilot.
Three rear admirals of the staff will
become eligible for retirement under
section % of the naval omnibus bill,
which provides that ANY staff officer
of the Navy now on the active list
who held the permanent rank of rear
admiral during the World War, after
having. ten years in that rank, in the
discretion of the President, be placed
upon the retired list, with three
fourths of the pay received by him
on the active list at the day of his
retirement"
The three admirals coming under
this section are: Rear Admiral Cary
T. Grayson, who was elevated to this
grade by President Wilson; Rear Ad-
miral Frederick NJ. Harris. former
chief of the Bureau of Yards and
Docks, and Rear Admiral Christian
J. Peoples. ). g, who is now on the

coast projectiles was put in effect
shortly after the signing of the
armistiCe. AS a result of develop
ments made by the Army this
delayed action fuse, the Mark X
fuse, which has satisfactorily met
the service test requirements, has
been designated by the department
as standard for manufacture. A
number of difficulties are still ap-
parent in this type of fuse, but plans
are unGnr way which will correct the
unsatisfactory features. In develop
ing this fuse, it has been found de-
sirable to cut the delay time to ap-
proximately one-half the time for
merly required Tests conducted by
the Army with this shorter delay
have been satisfactory and the fuse
is now in production.
Several lines of development have
been considered on the third type,
that of the antisircraft time fuse.
In anti-aircraft work the principal
undesirable features have been the
wide variations in time and per-
centage of duds when fired at ex-
tremely high attitudes, due to the
change in atmospheric conditions.
The investigation of this subject up
to the present time has not proceeded
far enough to determine whether or
anti-aircraft fuse problem will be
made. trial lot of fuses will short
ly be given a service test, which, it
is hoped, Will meet the requirements
of the department. Up to the present,
however. Ordnance Department eX-
perts hold to the opinion that the
mechanical time fuse is the best type
suited for anti-aircraft purposes and
If the production costs are not pro-
hibitive, it is believed that this fuse
will be generally used for high alti-
tude firing.
Already known as one of the best
shooting regiments in the Army, the
30th Infantry, by the excellent marks
manship of Companies + and q, which
have just completed their annual
target practice on the Fort Barry
range, have shattered shooting
records not only for the Regular estab-
lishment. but have approached world
records in individual scores.
Company G., Lieut.. Paul r. Goode
commanding, with 90 men firing the
courses, completed its record practice
with an average score of 1908 out of
a possible $50 points at 200, 300. 500
and SOC yards slow and rapid fire.
Company L, under the command of
Lieut.. Thomas y. Stark. jr., made an
average score of 294.6 for it's 63 rifle
men. Thirty-eight men in Company
G won the highest possible qualifica-
ton, that of expert riflemen; l6 quail
flied as sharpshooters and 9 qualified
as marksmen. In Company f there
were % men qualifying as expert
rifemen, 10 as sharpshooters and 16

NJ interest TO the service was the
announcement made by the War De-
partment this week that Brig. Gen.
william s. Graves would be assigned
TO command of the First Division,
which assignment. in all probability,
forecasts his long delayed promotion
TO the grade of major general. The
elevation of Gen. Graves to a ma ior
generally will not only meet with gem
eral approval by the officers and men
who served with him in Siberia, bat
Will be most popular one throughout
the Army.
Postwar surveys of the existing
standard types of fuses have resulted
in three primary types being deter
mined upon as necessary for develop
ment to meet the more urgent
present-day demands Of the artillery
branches of the service. These types
are:
90 A combination superquick and
short delay point fuse for mobile
weapons. CD A delayed action base
fuse for armor- piercing projectiles
for the larger caliber seacoast
weapons, and CD an anti-aircraft
time fuse which would function in
dependent of atmospheric conditions
and which would operate through a
sufficient length of time to use the
full power of any anti-aircraft gun
to be placed in service.
1t is pointed out by Regular Army
officers that the combination super
quick and short delay fuse was re-
quired to be a bore safe fuse in which
the primer or illuminate detonator
could explode before the fuse cleared
the muZzle of the piece and yet would
fail to cause a defamation of eXplo-
sion of the shell charge Another
desirable feature is that the fuse
should be suitable for all sizes of
point fused mobile projeCtiles so that
but one type should be required for
production. 1t should also be simple
and rugged in construction so that
ii would be possible to produce il in
required quantities in case of an
emergency. SO far the E-13 model
" fuse has met these requirements
and has passed all shop tests devised
to test the bore safety features. The
tests conducted at Aberdeen Proving
Ground in the 75-millimeter field gun for
functioning have been satisfactory.
Tests in the outer zones of the 155-
millimeter howitzer have been generally
satisfactory, but too many 'duds'
have been encountered in the inner
zones. Considering variations in
shapes and velOCities. it does not
appear practicable to tit all sizes and
types of point-fused shell with
single type of. fuse. According to the
Army fuse experts. serious ConSidera-
tion is being given to the develop
ment of fuse of larger diameter to
