ON THE NEWS FRONT

OF the many recently revised
government orders affecting farm
ers and farm owners Of the United
States. the one with the greatest
impact is the WPB conservation or
der which has reclassified various
types of farm construction acuvi-
ty. besides reducing the amount OF
building for which no authorization
has been required until now.
For instance: The exemption OF
$500 on rural darm) construction
has been reduced 70 $500. But ac-
cording 10 the latest notice, agri-
cultural construction damaged by
fire. flood, tornado or earthquake
may be restored promptly In cases
where II has been decided by au-
thorities that immediate reconstruc-
tion is essential 70 the agricultural
program.
Farm owners contemplating the
construction Of a building have
been cautioned against starting
construction until permission TO
build actually has been granted.
The fact that builder has all neces-
sary materials on hand and needs
no priorities assistance will not
govern whether he should be per-
mitted to use the material In the
construction job.
Another point to remember con
cerning the new rules and regula'
tons on rural building is this: The
completion Of the project must not
require the use OF any material, or
the site or of the site, to supply

agency Of the War Department, 1t
has been found that the purposes of
the Corps could not be accomplished
to the best advantage in the midst of
war because of the civilian status of
those appointed IN it to serve with
the Army
In the interest OF efficiency unit
formity of operations, discipline
and the avoidance of ! duplica tion
OF effort, 1t is not advisable to have
two uniformed services. Accord
ingly, the Army Specialist Corps
will cease to function as a sepa-
rate organization, and the pro-
curement of specially qualified per-
sons required by the Army for
service with other than civilian
positions will be accomplished by
specialist commissions in the Army
of the United States"
The Specialist Corps, in months
past, could furnish the Army with
men only when requisitioned by
the adjutant general, based on the
requests of the various branches.
There was and still is an urgent
need for trained technicians of
many kinds. Some of these the
corps was able to furnish. On the
other hand, the Army has little
need for statesmen and many other
professional groups represented by
those registered with the corps.
In the case of engineers, it was
pointed out, certain kinds are need
ed, but there is no call for others
whose training would not adapt
them to military requirements.

The reorganization, which is
sweeping in effect, was said to carry
out the recommendations Of the
Specialist Corps almost 100 per
cent"
Something of this nature had
been Anticipated for "a long time
and was brought to a head last
Thursday when Secretary Stimson
announced at his press conference
that changes in the corps, instituted
by its own studies, would be made
known within the week.
Some months before. he had de-
Tended the Specialist Corps against

Established by Roosevelt.
The Specialist Corps was estab-

tain from civil life especially quail
fled men for duties with the Army
which do not require preliminary
military training prior to active
service. Its actual procurement
work commenced the middle of
June. the War Department report
explained. Appointments in the
corps were made only on requisition
of the Army, and persons appointed
therein had the status of civilian
employees.
To this civilian status, it was ex-
planned yesterday, is traceable most

specialist commissions in the Army.

specialists now on active duty, If

the Army, will be commissioned i'm

Furthermore, the War Department
announced, all men commissioned in
the Army directly from civil life,

during the period of consolidation
His plans after that were not di-
vulged.
Under the new procurement
policy was forecast rigid tighten
ing of rules governing the commits
sioning of civilians without prior
military training New rules to be
put into effect were intended to
remove some of the causes of criti-
cism to former policy, which has
proved an irritant to the War
Department, despite efforts by Sec
retary Stimson to provide appro-
pirate safeguards.
The new setup was regarded in
Army circles as a forward looking
approach to a problem that has
many complexities and reliable
sources reported that it follows the
recommendations made by the staff
studies of the Army Specialist Corps.
1t is, said to be an untried method
which should both simplify and
expedite procedure.
Board Rules on Appointments.
The new agency will recommend
all officer appointments from civil
life to the Secretary of Wars Per-
! sonnel Board, which is headed by
Gen. Malin Craig. a former Army
chief OF staff. All future appoint
ments must be approved by Gen.
Craig's board. which also will have
broad powers of inspection and
supervision.
In announcing this procedure, the
War Department said yesterday
that "the policy adopted for the
Army Specialist Corps by which all
appointments in it have been ap-
proved by the War Department
Personnel Board, will in this way
be continued in effect"
Throughout the 1,2OO-w word state
ment. authorized by Secretary Slim
son, there is no criticism aimed at
the former director general and
his staff. On the contrary, it is
| laudatory to a high degree. A
paragraph summed up the War
Departments real relationship with
the corps and its appreciation. of
past efforts as follows:
THE Secretary of War has ex-
pressed to the Honorable Dwight
F. Davis. director general of the
Army Specialist Corps, his appreci-
alton of the devoted services of
Gen. Davis and his assistants during
the exacting period Of experiments
ton in officer procurement through
the corps as uniformed civilian
agency. Working under many un-
foreseeable difflculties in an entirely
new and untried field, the Corps,
under Gen. Davis, has afforded the
War Department most valuable
recommendations to the solution of
difficult problem.
Valuable Policies Established.
TT has established policies which
will be of constructive, permanent
value to the War Department, has
made extremely useful contacts with
civilian organizations, educational
institutions and technical societies.
and has recruited from all over the
country to assist the work of the
Army group of highly skilled and
| valuable men, many of whom will
