LOCAL CUARDSMEN

City's Quota at Army Service Schools to Be inc
 creased By New Plan
By PAUL MAY Democrat Corrcspondent)

Washington, D. C., March 30- Waterbury national guard. units will have at least six officers who are graduates of army service schools, under a new war depart ment policy recently announced by Secretary of War Dern, 1t was learned here today.
 At the same time, Waterbury ma tional guardsmen will have about three times the chance they for merly have had to attend the army schools, 1t was stated.
 Under the present arrangement a certain number of national guard officers have been chosen each year to attend the army service schools. This number has been so low, however, that out of the 14,- 183 active officers in the national guard. only about 1,951 now on duty are graduates of one of the SchoDls.
 Plan Increase
 Under the plans announced by the secretary of war this number will be increased until there are about three times the present number of officers who will have had this training.
 Funds for an increase in the number of officers who will be se- lected for this training are car- ried in the pending war depart ment appropriation bill, it was dis closed.
 The funds asked for next year will permit 295 national guard off, cers who have not previously at- tended an army service school to take advantage of that training. Although the number is expected to increase after next year, that figure represents almost twice the number of officers who are receiv- ing training this year.
 To Select Officers
 As these men are trained 1t Is planned to arrange the schooling so that there is at least one grad school to eac hcompany, troop and uate of the appropriate service battery. In each case officers from within the unit itself will be se- 1ected for the work, 1t was stated. uate for each battalion and squad
 In addition to the company off, cers. the policy calls for one grad ron headquarters and two for each regimental and brigade headquar- ters.
 Almost all officers of the national guard rise from the enlisted ranks. 1t was pointed out, and any off. cer who has reached the grade of second lieutenant may qualify himself for one of these schools.

Plans to Dine With Eel.

union Tomorrow.
Worked Way Through
Sch0oI-COt Diploma
From Grant.

Sixty-three years is a long time to
look back to ones own graduation,
but Judge Moulton can do it.
The fact is, he'll span just that
period tomorrow night when. as Hosea
Ballou Moulton, IT, he sits down
to dine with hundreds of his fellow
old grads at the National University
Alumni Association reunion banquet
at the Mayfiower Hotel.
Judge Moulton was thinking about
those student days just after the Civil
War this morning as he approached
his 92d birthday anniversary. A lot
of changes, he decided, occur in SO
years. In the first place. he went
to school at National University when
it was in small quarters down in
the court house neighborhood and
Sixth and streets. And his class
of some so men listened to the lee
lures of Prof. Wedgewood and other
old-time pioneers in the legal edu-
cational field in an ordinary-size office
room.
President Of Class.
Like himself, National University
was "a young un" then; in fact the
school was training its first class and
Hosea Moulton was member OF the
charter group of students and was
elected its president. That was quite
a thrill, but it didn't compare with
the first graduation. The President
of the United States was chancellor
of National University then, and it
was President Grant, who only few
years before had led the Federal
armies in a successful conclusion Of
the Civil War, who signed the diplo-
mas.
"I remember that time. all right"
Judge Moulton said today. 1T was
in old Lincoln Hall there on G street,
between Ninth and Tenth. We grad
yates were all there together and Gen.
Grant-thats what most folks called
him-was standing up on the plat
form. Prof Wedgewood called out
the names one by one, and he read
a motto about each member OF the
class, and as our names were called
we walked up to the platform and got
our diplomas right from Grants
hands"
During his student days. young
Moulton was a clerk in the Treasury
Department and as soon as he was
graduated with the degree of bachelor
of laws. he opened his Office in build
ing at Seventh and G streets.
Il had a whole floor there" he re-
called with a grin today, "and an
