Salutes and Bores

James B. Murray of Massachusetts, writes to explain the
origin of the salute limiting that in is origin may lie the
for Woodrow Wilson's willingness to abolish the
custom.
THE salute he says, first originated law, not to
respect officer make the officer feel safe
passed his each enlisted had to raise and
show the palm of his hand to prove he had concealed
weapons
This is the explanation usually give for the handshake,
too But humanity strange in its savage time and
remains this day. Ism possible that the salute
substituted the kiss which slaves and interiors
rcians in Rome and which had become ntolerabe bur
den? Or perhaps shake hands because in the old
days bore would up and grasp his victim by the arm
whence it hard shake off persistent leech By giving
the hand instead you have throw off your
pest and to escape. IN
The theory Of the salute given above well with cir
cumsance. Men in training camps often wished they had
concealed weapon against officer at the front they
had weapons little desire them And at the 'front.'

TRAINING
Joined BY Bel Air Student in
Determination to Test
Principles

Rather than violate their
principles, two students of the
University of Maryland are
risking expulsion by their re-
fusal to enroll in the Reserve
Officers Training Corps of
the university.
The boys, Wayne Lees, of the
3400 block of Mount Pleasant st.
N. w., and Ennis Cole, of Bel Air,
Md, have indicated to university
officials their intention to refuse
to study military science.
Sees New Light
Lees, a sophomore who last
year enrolled in the military
corps, declares that this refusal
now is due to intellectual
awakening" Cole is first year
student at the university.
According to President Ray
mond Pearson, Cole has changed
his original refusal" to enroll to
a request that he be exempted.
Pearson says Lees has made a
similar plea.
Service Compulsory
Their requests. President Pear,
son says, will be laid before the
executive board of the university
In the event no legitimate excuse
is found for the exemption, the
boys may be expelled.
Under the Morrill, Act, the
State of Maryland requires mill,
tary science as a compulsory two
year course for all male students
who are physically fit.

BURKEF|T
Gen. GIassford Determined to
Have Inspector Trans
ferred in Shake-up

Inspector Frank s. w.
Burke, assistant superin-
tendent of police, in charge of
the detective bureau, is
physically fit for regular
duty" the police board of
surgeons, who examined him
yesterday, advised Brig. Gen.
Pelham D. Glassford, superin-
tendent of police, today.
Because OF this finding Burke
cannot be retired for physical
disability, as recommended by
Glassford in the wholesale shake
up of the Police Department or
dered by the police superintendent.
Will Force Transfer
GlasSford is determined, how.
ever, to force Burke's transfer
from the post of chief of detec-
tives, which will automatically re-
duce him to the rank of in
spector. with a loss of $500 an.
nual compensation. He will make
immediate demands upon the
Commissioners to approve such a
recommendation.
Burke will go before the police
retiring board tomorrow in COM
pliance with orders, but because
of the surgeons findings that
group will be unable to recon-
mend retirement for the chief of
detectives.
The Commissioners will meet
Tuesdy and General GlaSsford ex-
poets to ask them then to trans
fer Burke from his present as.
signment to permit the appoint
ment of Capt. Edward j. Kelly
as his successor. The Commits
Sioners have indicated that Gen
eral GlaSsford will be forced to
give strong reasons to uphold his
request for reassignmentS.
Efficiency Is Sought
General Glassford said today
that his moves had been designed
to create more efficient police
department and detective bureau
and that in the future, if Cap
tain Kelly were given command
of detectives and failed to pro.
duce results, he, too, would be
removed in the interest of ef-
ficiency.
The recommendation of the
board of surgeons concerning In.
Spector Burke said:
I'm the opinion of the board
this man is fit for regular
duty"
Burke Is Gratified
When advised of the findings
of the board, Inspector Burke
said that he was gratified to
know that after his 80 years SER
vice in the police department he
is still physically fit for duty.
He said he had never doubted
that his health would permit him
to continue his work.

Gently deposed as head of the

further reduced in rank at the
request of Superintendent Glass
ford.

Handicaps Cited
Commander Hall declared that
the Navy's accident prevention
organization works under two
major handicaps. He said:
"The first is that the aver
age naval officer disIikes the
term safety engineering This
is all because his training has
in view the climax of warfare
at sea and few things are more
opposite in nature than safety
and war at sea. The second
handicap is that the entire
office personnel, both at the cen
trail office and at the reporting
shore stations, changes at least
once in every three years."
