Some of those officers are now as
signed to Regular Army and National
Guard units. The Enlisted Reserve
Corps will be a similar pool when it
is developed
Approximately 1000 reserve Off
GERS or approximately one-siXth of
the total number, will receive two
weeks of training this Summer.
Still another method will be that of
local unit and combined unit camps.
At the first the reserve officers and
enlisted men of regiment or smaller
organization will assemble for practi-
cal study and tactical exercises. At
the combined camps several units of
different arms will join together for
tactical training. In most instances
these will be Infantry and Artillery
organizations. They must work in
the closest liaison.
Army Correspondence Courses.
During the past year, 1925 reserve
officers and SAL enlisted reservists
were enrolled in our Army correspond
ence courses. This number is greater
than the combined student bodies of
Harvard Yale, Cornell, Princeton and
Brown Universities. This military ex-
tension department has as many stu
dents as the combined correspondence
study departments of the Universities
of Wisconsin. Chicago. California.
Iowa. Minnesota. Nebraska and Utah.
During the past Winter and Spring
weekly and bi-weekly meetings were
held all over the country at which re-
serve officers gathered in groups from
10 to 500 for study.
1t is difficult to estimate the great
amount of time that is now being
given to military study by reserve
officers while on an inactive duty
status. This, to my mind, is most
encouraging and promising. 1t means
that our citizen army idea is practical,
as well as economical. It is indicative
of the new concept of service to coun-
try that is being manifest in the
United States of America. 1t augurs
well for the. future

months of 1920
The two great civilian components
of the Army of the United States, as
created by the national defense act of
1920. are the National Guard and Or
ganiZed Reserves. These are the sec
ond and third lines-and the bulk
Of our defenses. The Organized Re-
serves, with the Officers Reserve
Corps and the Enlisted Reserve
Corps, are new. In a sense, even the
National Guard as it exists today is
new. The World War changed its
character
The National Guard is now orga nized
into Is Infantry divisions, Cavalry
divisions and certain additional com
panies, mostly Coast Artillery. The
Guard still has its dual capacity-be-
longing to the State normally and to
the National Government only. in ad-
normal times or emergencies. The
World War was the last of these.
Because Of it's organization, the Ma
tional Guard will be capable of real
and almost immediate national use
when needed. 1t was never more
efficient than at present and never
such a strong element of national de-
fense as it is today. The States are
prof1ting from this new efficiency since
the World War. Internal disorders
have been few and far between. In
the few instances that have occurred.
the squadrons have been masters of
the situation. The Regular Army has
been sent to only one State, where
there was no Guard.
10000 i'm Training.
The present aggregate strength of
the National Guard is $50, ,636 officers
and men. More than 100000 of these
will spend two weeks in field training
this Summer. The Regular Army as
signs officers and enlisted men to the
National Guard as instructor-inspec-
tors Before the World War these
usually acted in their inspector
capacity. Now they are acting mostly
as instructors. The. relations between
the Regular Army and the National
Guard are most harmonious and help
full to both.
The National Guard will devote it's
attention this Summer, as during the
last three, to the training of small
units. Such training is basic and must
needs be thorough. There will be no
training of units larger than the bat
TALON. The National Guard training
system is progressive, beginning with
the individual and going up through
the squad, section, platoon and COM
pany to the battalion. Every effort
is made to accomplish as much train
ing as possible during the Winter
months, in order that the two weeks
in camp may be given over to field
exercises. This avoids duplication,
wasted time and means a general
speeding up of training. Target prac-
tice was completed by most units dur
ing the Spring. These will not need
to spend any of their valuable time

essential.
The National Guard camps this
Summer will vary in size. Some will
be division, some brigade and some
Iregimental. The average sized camp
will be 1hs brigade. Inaso far as praQ-

BALTIMORE, July 15.-In an effort
to halt the increasing loss Of life by
drowning in Maryland waters. the
Baltimore chapter of the American
Red Cross will esta blish life-saving
stations at or near the approximately
500 waterfront communities in Mary
land.
The organization will be known as
the Chesapeake American Red Cross
Life-Saving Corps. 1t is being formed
under the direction of Carl A. Rietz
director of the corps, along lines ap-
proved by the National Red Cross
headquarters in Washington.
Practically no effort has been made
to disseminate information on water
safely in this territory, Red Cross Of

Chesa peake A. r. c. Life Saving Corps
will be in command of a commodore.
Captains will be in charge of regions
having a number of districts, COM
manders and lieutenant commanders
will oversee the work in the districts
and lieutenants will have jurisdiction
at individual communities and public
beaches. The organization also pro-
vides for number of officers of minor

Experts to Instruct.

Instructions and demonstrations in
life-saving will be given by experts
and members of the corps to qualify
for this work in the future. A mem
ber of the corps qualifying as a life
saver will be given proper insignia to
wear on his or her uniform or bathing
suit.
The corps will draw into the organi-
zation persons of both sexes from the
age of II on. The first grade is the
junior grade, from II to II years, and
the senior grade from 18 years up
ward, with one insignia for women
and another for men. These insignia
will not be awarded until candidates
have passed examinations in rescue
and resuscitation work.
Later, Mr.. Rietz says, boats, first-aid
equipment, graphing and dragging
apparatus and other emergency neces-
sites will be placed at strategic points.
Communities cooperating will place
and set lifelines, especially for begin
ners and children. and plan definite in
structions for those learning to swim.

teal. all National Guard troops will
be trained in their own States at their
own camps. The only exception to
this Will be the guards of two or more
States Joined together to form their
own divisional organizations.
The reserve officers who have been
assigned to the Regular Army and Ma
tlonal Guard for wartime expansion
will train, in so far as practical, with
the organizations to which they are
now assigned. This includes those
who have been assigned to the
War Department general staff and
branches.
Those assigned to the many units
of the Organized Reserves are to be
given active duty training under the
new War Department plan of unit
training. The main objective of this
plan is the development of teams capa-
BILE of expanding and training the
skeleton organizations of the Organ
lied Reserves. The first step is to de-
velop competent leaders; that is, Off
GERS and non-commissioned officers.
Will Understudy Regulars.
During this Summer approximately
$50 different Organized Reserve teams,
varying in size from the officer COM
d
regiment, will be called to duty for
two weeks of unit training. Several
training methods will be employed.
For actual command and combat
training, officers of a reserve unit will
be SuperimpoSed on a Regular Army
organization of the same arm. Each
reserve officer will understudy a Regu-
lar Army officer. During the last week
the reserve officers will be given an
fNFay SNr-fT 70 To-
Army companies, battalions and regi-
ments.
For actual mobilization training, one
reserve regiment of each appropriate
branch will be utilized at a citizens
military training camp in each of the
nine corps areas. The first week will
consist of a refresher course, and the
second week will be devoted to the
actual work of inducting our boys into
organizati tionS and giving them pre-
liminary instruction.
The Organized Reserves have been
formed. into the. skeletons of 81 1p-
fantry and Cavalry divisions and, in
addition, have been assigned most of
the corps organizations. Together with
the Regular Army and the National
Guard divisions, these complete our
new six field army system of defense
the effort major emergency would
call forth.
Two Units Separate.
The reserve organizations have been
distributed over the United States ac-
cording to population. They exist to-
day only in skeleton form, with the
officers, and in a few instances the
non-commissioned officers, assigned.
The full enlisted strength will have to
be inducted into the service and train
ed after the emergency is upon us,
the young men of each community
rallying to the organization allocated
to their neighborhood.
There is difference between the Re-
serve officers Corps and the Organ
iZed Reserves which is not generally
understood. The Reserve Officers
Corps is a great pool which in an
emergency will supply officers to the
Regular Army and National Guard as
well as=tot the ORGANIZED. deserves.
