Another move not announced is aimed at check-reining the free handed dishing out of reserve com- missions to socialites and sons of the wealthy, which has aroused widespread criticism against the Navy.
 Under a new regulation, these Hedging reserve officers are put on probation and if they don't measure up, their commissions will be sumnarily revoked.
 Navy insiders believe the new system will have 8 potent effect both in curbing the ladling out of commissions and in weeding out any ircompetents.
 UNPLUGGED HOLE
 While moving to plug up this hole, Navy brasshats, however, still have done nothing about an- other one.
 This is the Navy's favoritisnl- ridden promotion system, under which regular officers with out- standing records and in the prime of life are passed over" and slated for retirement.
 Recently, this column disclosed how under this system three of- ficers who have won high U. s. military decorations for heroism at Pearl Harbor and in the Bat tie of Java had been previously passed over" by brasshat Promo ton Boards. We can now re- veal that there were two others similarly axed-Lt. Comdr.

We don't quite agree with the proposi- ton that our merchant ships should cease night coastwise operation until such time as they can be properly equipped and manned to cope with submarines. If Atlantic shipping is to be confined to daytime operation only it will be more or less sketchy to say the least. It cer- tainly would be quite job for ships to put into port every night or to be forced to anchor in some spot safe from the un- derseas boats prying eyes. If shipping must be done only by day it would seem as if it would have to be cut out entirely.

Cement Making Advances

Great advances have been made
in cement making since 1924, when
England granted patent for port
land cement to Joseph Aspdin, a
bricklayer of Leeds. The cement
was named from its resemblance to
the stone of the Isle of Portland, a
rocky limestone peninsula on the
southern coast of England. Aspdin
built a bottle-shaped kiln at Wake
field, 10 miles from Leeds, where he
fired a mixture of finely ground
limestone and clay. This early ce-
ment was used in building the
Thames tunnel in 1928.
Cement is used solely as a bind
ing material, just as mortar Is used
as bond in laying bricks, says the
National Geographic society. In
concrete the cement binds the par
ticles of gravel and sand together.
Today the limestone is crushed by
large gyratory or roll crushers,
mixed with the other raw materials
and then pulverized. This mixture
is put into cylindrical kilns roasted
at a temperature of from 400 70
$500 degrees Fahrenheit.

Belt Like Sam Browne
Type Worn in Crusades

Officially, it's known as the Of
ficers Belt M-l92l.
Commonly, it's known as the Sam
Browne belt. But actually, it's
equipment as old as the military pro-
fession, this belt worn by army Of
ficers. The belt, adopted by our
army during the World war and APP
proved by Gen. John J. Pershing
when he was chief of staff, derives
its name from Gen. Sir Samuel
Browne, an English officer who
served in the early campaigns in
India. Having lost an arm in battle,
he devised the belt so that he might
carry his equipment despite his
handicap.
A similar belt was issued to the
United States army during the peri
cd 1855-1858. This belt was used not
by officers, but by enlisted men of
the light artillery and the mounted
rifles. Similar belts were worn by
British soldiers during the Revolu-
tionary war.
But centuries before this, belt
of this type was carried by the Cru
saders, who carried their battle ak
on one side and their mace on the
other.
Recently the war department au-
thorized officers to wear either the
Sam Browne belt or a cloth belt
The leather belt may be removed
when indoors.
