funds. Instead, field exercises will be
conducted with Washington Barracks
as the home base. The reconnaissance
will be probably in accordance with q
daily program, using motor transporta-
ton, beginning about June 10 and end
ing about the date when the War
College course will terminate.
In absorbing the increments for the
five-year expansion program Of the Air
Corps the War Department has found
of battalions Of Infantry, troops Of Cav
airy and batteries of Artillery. 1t is
felt In the War Department that it Is
better to simply wipe out a battalion
rather than to try to absorb the de-
crease in q number of other battalions.
The final result OF the five-year pro-
gram, If the Air Corps men are taken
from the 118,750, would be a reduction
of eight battalions of Infantry, four
squadrons OF Cavalry, eight batteries OF
Field Artillery, four batteries Of Coast
Artillery, two companies Of Engineers,
over 500 men from the Cuartermaster
Corps, four Ordnance companies and
one detachment Of Chemical Warfare
regiment.
The Secretary of War Is strongly op-
posed to the proposal that the Govern
ment abandon Governors Island as a
military post and that 1t revert back TO
the State Of New York to be used as an
airport for the city Of New York. This
project has been up for consideration
several times In different ways. Secre-
tary Davis is not only opposed to 1t from
the military standpoint, but he has ex-
pressed the opinion that he does not

Approval has been given by the
Secretary of War to the proposal to
make chiefs and assistant chiefs Of
branches Of the Army eligible for ap-
pointment as general officers Of the line.
Under existing law. chiefs and assistant
chiefs of the Army branches are ap-
pointed for four-year periods and while
so serving have the rank, pay ana
allowances Of major general or br1gadier
general, and at the expiration OF their
details as such chiefs or assistant chiefs
they revert to their permanent grade
In the Army. Some Of these officers
are eligible for appointment as brigadier
general of the line; others are not
eligible for such appointment, but TINS
proposal would make all Of them equally
eligible for such appointment. Tn1s
proposal takes cogniZance OF a situation
whereby in certain cases deserving of1-
GERS may be debarred by law from the
opportunity for advancement to a per-
manent general officer grade and In
small measure aims to overcome
partially this lack of opportunity. 1t
also wisely maintains the safeguard OF
requiring selection to an eligible list
as prerequisite to appointment.
This years course at the Army war
College, Washington Barracks, d. g"
will not be concluded with exercises In
the North as has been the annual Gus
tom for the past four years. This de-
termination has been made necessary
due TO the lack of available mileage

Navy.
Though Rear Admiral e. r. Stitt,
surgeon general Of the Navy, will not
terminate his second term as chief OF
the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery
until November 30, 1928, considerable
speculation is being INDUCED In as to
whether or not the present administra-
ton viii place q limit on the term dur
ing which a naval officer may serve as
bureau chief in the Navy Department.
In view of the thumbs-down policy Of
the War Department on the reappoint-
ment of branch chiefs In the War De-
partment, which limits their tour OF
duty as chief of branch to one term OF
four years only, 1t is felt in certain
quarters that pressure may be brought
to bear to make this policy applicable
to bureau chiefs in the Navy Depart
ment. Irrespective of what policy the
department may pursue in this case,
the following medical officers Of the
Navy have been mentioned in connec-
ton with this approaching vacancy,
about six months away. as Admiral Still
will not terminate hs second term as
chief of this bureau until November 30,
1928. They are: Capts Charles E.
Riggs, now In command of the Naval
Hospital, Washington, ID. c.; E. j.

believe It would be advisable from the
standpoint of the best interests Of ayia-
ton. The Secretary has pointed out
that he does not think that Governors
Island Is well adapted for that purpose
and he feels that q military post should
be located there. There are other
places In the neighborhood that are far
better suited, he said, for development
into proper aviation fields.

ON APPOINTEES
TO PARK BOARD
0usting of Jesse Mcclure
Is Blocked by Action
of Mike Foley.

The first indication that Leroy
Reach, Democratic County chair
man, is recognized at city hall as
something more than the titular
head of the party was seen today by
political observers in park board ap-
pointmentS made Thursday.
A substantial list of persons who
bore Keach's approval was named,
the first time Reach has been able
to get any noticeable recognition
Mayor L. Ert Slack has resisted
party recommendations to a great
extent, on the ground that merit and
not politics should be the basis for
appointments.
Charles A. Myers, former clerk.
who replaced Charles M. Davidson,
witness in the bribery trial of
Councilman Boynton j. Moore, as
chief clerk, is known as a "Keach
man"
Myers and Miss Mary E. Griffin,
reappointed secretary, were en-
ployed in the department for sew
eral years until the Duvall admin
lstration filled their posts with Khan
workers.
Miss Griffin and the new chief
clerk are Democrats, while the dis
charged employees are Republicans.
Bishop Joseph M. Chartrand of
the indianapolis Catholic diocese,
was said actively to have supported
Myers and Miss Griffin when their
jobs were at stake two years ago.
Some of the twenty-five park Gus
todianS named Thursday are organ
jzation Democrats, known to be
friendly to Reach.

Goett was recommended to succeed
Mcclure.
Considerable friction developed at
the meeting. Mrs. Hoss asked why
the recreation head was to be known
as recreation assistant, when Super
intendent r. Walter Jarvis so read
his name on the list for appoint
ment.
President Minor explained the
recreation department was under di-
rection of Superintendent Jarvis.
I'm not making motions around
here" said Mrs. Hess earlier in the
meeting, when Minor asked for mo-
tons on the appointments.
Mayor Slack, who attended the
meeting to vote in event of tie,
told the board Goett's contemplated
appointment was mot political, but
on his merit. He is very compe-
tent"
Minor made the motion to dis
charge Mcclure and appoint Goett
after he received an opinion from
Park Attorney Edward B. Raub that
the chair could make a motion. It
was lost for want of a second,

"There is no rush about 1t, I

well, we have talked about it.
Why procrastinate?" interrupted
Minor.

who had insisted Mcclure be
dropped.
In asking the board to delay &C

said: I'm under bond as a public
official and I want to know how
things are run. This recreation di-
rectorship is more important than
the SUPPLEMENTARY, because he

Fourteen of the custodians had
been employed previously in the de-
partment. The list submitted to
the board by Minor, following Slack
approval:

Michael E. Foley. Democratic
board member, made the motion to
name Myers and Miss Griffin. Mrs
Mary Hoss, Republican, who baked
some time ago on Mayor Slack
program, seconded the motion.
Adolph G. Emhardt, Democratic
member, announced he was not vot-
ing on the discharge Of Clarence
Myers.
Foley blocked the ousting of Rec
reation Director Jesse P. Mcclure,
active Republican, whom the Slack
administration sought to drop some
time ago. Foley said he desired to
delay action a week so he could
meet Henry OFT Goett, Democratic
attorney, and investigate his record.
