PershIna Suggests Them.

After the war was over, the urgent
need of reserve officers ended. But
the experience of men high In rank
made them get to work on solution
of the problem of training reserve Off
GERS who would know something of
their duties and the duties of the army
in general when they we're called upon
for service. General Pershing sug-
gested the correspondence schools.
In 1921, the first correspondence
courses were issued by the War de-
partment. Several months beforehand,
reserve officers who had fought in the
war had been circularized and asked
whether they were interested. Many
answers were in favor of the idea.
The courses started with 500 students.
The defense forces of the United
States are divided into three groups
the regular army, with officers trained
at West Point; the National Guard,
with National Guard schools and train
ing quarters, and the reserves. Apart
from the reserve officers training
corps and the citizens military train
ing camps, to which men go for short
periods, the reserves had no schools
where officers could get the special
technical training required for efficient
service in the branch in which they
enrolled.
Today the correspondence schools
are making up that lack. There are
nine corps areas in the United States,
each with its own commander.
Every corps area is giving these
courses to men within its boundaries.
At present courses in eighteen branches
Of army service have been developed.

Correspondence School for
Reserve Military Service
Proves Success.

Washington. "West Point cor
respondence school" is now run by the
United States army to train reserve
officers for duties they may be called
upon to assume in time of war. There
has been nothing like this in the pre-
vious history Of the country; there is
nothing like it anywhere else More
than $4,000 men took the courses last
year, most of them reserve officers,
who knew that their civilian training
was inadequate for regular field work.
Many took them for promotion to a
higher rank in the reserves.
The credit for the inauguration of
correspondence school courses to train
reserve officers is given to General
Pershing. When the United States
entered the war, it was found that the
ranks of reserve officers were very
small. To meet the exigencies Of the
situation, officers were created over
night. Brokers became infantry Off
GERS; doctors, medical officers; chem
lists, ordnance officers; newspaper men,
intelligence officers; architects, field
officers, and so on down the line.
Wherever possible, man was put into
the branch of service for which his
civilian activities most fitted him.
Civilian activities. no matter how
brilliant, are not, however, sufficient
to insure good military service. The
newly created officers, it is true, In
most cases, received short, intensive
training at the various camps through
out the country, but that was not
enough. If regular army officers and
the newly-created officers lost their
tempers with each other it was not
surprising.

Plan Will Save About $4,000

Easier to Handle
(By Charles p. Stewart)

Washington, May 29-You1l hardly
know whether it is money or mer-
chandisc coupon after the trcasury's
committee on design Of the currency
gets through.
Their plans for revamped paper
money are expected to save about
100000 year and to provide much'
handler currency. Their problem is
to take care of the paper money and
let the coins take care of them elves
The proposals, in brief, arc to re-
duce the size Of bills by about onc.s
third. to eliminate the yclloWbacks
and make other color changes, to
simplify and standardizc design and
to stop printing some Of tho little
used denominations. These propos-
ais are not yet official. They arc
revealed now directly from the COM
mittec. however. and are believed to
be virtually assured Of adoption.
Mellon Has Authority
Secretary of the Treasury Mellon
has authority to make such changes
In the currency without consulting
Congress. The committee on re-
design has been making exhaustive
studies for nearly year and is cx-
pcctcd to report within few
months. After the secretary orders
the changes, nearly year will be
required for engraving the plates and
for printing and distribution.

Charles 5. Dewey. He is the official
directly in charge Of the expert COM
mittcc on redcsign.
The change in size is expected to
be most radical. Ever since the first
greenbaeks were turned out during
the Civil War paper money has been
approximately 1928 inches long and
3.O4 inches wide. The new bills, it is
planned, will be inches long and
IL inches wide.
These dimensions are copied from
Philippine money. When the islands
came under American control a con-
signmcnt Of paper money: in pesos,
was ordered from the bureau Of en-
craving and printing. Elihu Root,
then secretary Of war, insisted that
it have a distinctive form.
Our money is printed eight bills
at single impression on large
sheets. The Philippine currency was
printed II bills to the sheet. 1t is
proposed now to adopt this size Of
bill.
When it is considered that the gov
eminent uses about 1900 tons Of pa
per year for printing money, it is
apparent that such cut in size will
effect Il tremendous saving.
furthermore, the smaller-sizcd bills
will not be folded so much and will
give longer service. Tests already
made by federal reserve bank tcllcrs
show the smaller bills can be handled
faster.
Changing Patterns.

different denominations of bills: the

ly threatened by a compromise bill
which will soon be taken up in the

With almost 100000 voters de-

biscite, the government Of Chancel-
lor Marx now will devote it's immed-
late efforts to speedy parliamentary
action on the compromise bill.
This compromise, while not de-
priving the former rulers completely
of their properties, nevertheless take
scant> cognizance of their class. Not
only does it make retroactive num-
erous previous settlements entered
into with Prussia and other federat-
ed states, but 1t also disregards the
alleged titles to numerous castles
and palaces which the government
believes should remain public prop
erty.

Cummings is Victor

Statewide interest centered In the
Sheriff contest in Kennebec county
due to the candidacy of Henry r.
Cummings Of Augusta, who sought q
denomination after being removed
by the Governor for laxity in office.
Cummings was reelected a winner
over Ira Witham, OF Clinton by q
margin of 1917.
In the senator contest in Kennebec
county, Messrs. Foster, Hartman
and Maher were the winners.
Size of Vote Varies
The size of the vote varied in diff
ferent parts of the state. In coun-
ties where there were lively contests
for nominations for the legislature or
county offices the vote was heavy.
This was particularly true in Kenne-
bee county, where Henry F. Cum
mings ousted as sheriff by Governor
Brewster, was seeking denomination
with Ira A. Witham as his opponent,
and in Aroostook county, which had
seven candidates for sheriff. The
weather was IDEAL
The contest for the gubernatorIal
nomination was waged largely over
Governor Brewster's approval and
Major Thayer's disapprovaI of a con-
stitutional amendment passed by the
last legislature and to be voted on by
the people at the election in Sep
TENDER, prohibiting the appropriation
of public funds for private institu-
lions.
Ernest L. Mclean. mayor of Au-
gusta, received the Democratic nomi-
nation for governor without opposi-
ton.
The unopposed Democratic candi-
dates for congressman are: Richard f.
Hersom, Lebanon: Charles NJ Starbird.
Auburn: Edward Chase, Barring, and
Frank A. Peabody, Houlton.

senator this year.
