Army To Recall LBS Reserve
And National Guard Officers

ment of the Officers Reserve
Corps, when rendered, will be
cause for relief from active duty.
Although officers returning to
from an inactive status are elig-
IDLE for overseas assignment, re-
call to active duty does not nee
essarily mean the officer will
Immediately be assigned over
seas. Credit will be given for
previous overseas service in the
Same manner as for officers who
have remained on active duty.
It is pointed out that dependents
are authorized in many overseas
stations and that choice of Thea
ter is given due consideration.
Officers recalled to active duty
will be recalled in a grade not
higher than that in which the
officer served Immediately prior
to processing for relief from ac-
tive duty. This is necessary in
the interest of fairness to those
officers who remained on active
duty and have not received a
promotion which certain officers
received at the time of their
separation. Officers recalled to
active duty will be subject to
any general demotion procedure
in the same manner as all other
officers on active duty, but in no
case will they be reduced lower
than the permanent grade held
on, necember z. 1871. at this time
no reductions in grade are being
made. gs8ss 81 Aas Is
AS was pointed out in a pre-
ceding paragraph, officers apply
ing for recall to active duty must
have an appointment in the Ma
tional Guard or Officers Re-
serve Corps, or must make appli-
cation for appointment In Of
ficers' Reserve Corps in order to
be recalled; however, this does
not apply to the Women's Army
Corps, Warrant Officers, Hospi-
tai Dietitians, Nurses and Physi-
cal Therapists who are not elig-
ible for the Officers Reserve
Corps but are eligible for re-
call to active duty. Regular Army
enlisted personnel who are for
mer officers are also eligible UNI

recall to active duty.

diets the president of the Heart
of America Hay Fever Club, DR..
D. M. Nigro.
Over a carefully-chosen lunch

Ga dietary slip once caused him
to sneeze IS times before he could
get to Sleep, the Hay Fever Club
president and founder bemoaned
the lack of national legislation to
fight the hay fever scourge.

"People spend millions of dol

climates for relief from hay

should be spent for preventive
measures"
The "cures" that come out
every spring? "Oh, I've got an

doctor remarked. What helps

they've discovered so far is a
change of climate and regulated

The War Department has an
nounced the increase in quotas,
for recall to active duty of 1000
National Guard and Reserve of
ficers of all grades for service
with the Civil Affairs Division,
an additional 40 for service with
the Intelligence Division, S5 for
service with Foreign Liquidation
Commission, and so additional
for service with the Finance De-
partment.
This and previous authorize
tons make a total of 1859 va
cancies available to officers who
have gone on inactive duty or
terminal leave but who desire
further active duty. War Depart
ment representatives Indicated
that this number may be increas-
ed in the near future.
Although the War Department
Is authorized to recall officers
to active duty without their con-
sent during the emergency, it is
desired to fill these vacancies
with volunteers. Accordingly,
quotas have been established to
meet the needs of each of the
branches of service whose per-
sonnet problems have been made
acute by the rapid demobiliza-
ton of the Army.
Volunteers under this program
may elect to serve for an unlim-
tied length of time or for a II,
10 or "a month period. The War
Department, recognizing that
such volunteer officers should
have some degree of assurance
that their services will be uti-
llzed for the entire period for
which they volunteer, plans for
this policy to remain in effect
until the Army obtains a perm
anent postwar status. AT pres
eflt, the War Department cannot
foresee any circumstances which
would cause separation of of
fcers prior to the completion of
their volunteer period.
Previously announced quotas
are as follows: Corps of Engi-
neers, Quartermaster Corps, Sig
nal Corps, Transportation Corps,
and Ordnance Department, 500
each; Chaplain Corps, Chemical
Warfare Service, and Branch I'm
material, 500 each; Medical Adj
ministrative Corps, 200; Adjutant
Generals Department, Counter
Intelligence Corps, Medical
Corps and Dental Corps, 100
each; Judge Advocate Cen
erals Department, Corps of Mil
itary Police, Hospital Dietitians
81 the Medical Department, and
Sanitary Corps, so each; and FL
nance Department and Veteri-
nary Corps, rs each,
The Army Ground Forces has
A'fquota of 1000 officers of the
combat arms in the grade of cap
tain and lieutenant only, and the
Army Air Forces has an allot-
ment of $50 non-pilot technical
specialists.
Officers desiring to volunteer
for return to active duty must
apply in writing to The Adjutant
General, War Department, Wash
ington 25, ID. c., and must meet
the physical standards for over
seas service. Application forms
may be obtained at any Army
installation, Army Recruiting
Station, or Officers Reserve
Corps Headquarters. In the event
an officer on inactive status,
desiring active duty, does not
have a Reserve National Guard
Commission, he may apply for
active duty providing he has ap-
piled for a Reserve Commission.
Qualified applicants may be re-
called pending action on appoint

RECRUITING Of NEGROES FOR
REGULAR ARMY SUSPENDED

w S HIN G TON, July 20
| (ANP)-General army recruiting
of Negroes, except for 48 categories
of specialists, was suspended, ac-
cording to an announcement by the
War Department. A noverwhelm-
ing response of Negroes for serv-
ice in the regular army was given
as cause of the suspension. Negro
veterans and new enlistees are de-
clared to have enlisted in such num-
bers that the regular army quota
for Negroes was greatly "over-sub-
scribed."
Suspension, according to the re-
port, was make in keeping with the
recently announced war depart
ment policy on utilization of Negro
manpower in the same ratio as the
Negro population to the entire pop
ulation of the United States.
Skills in the 48 categories to
which Negro enlistments will be
limited for the present include:
godetic computor, dental and med
ical laboratory technicians, ma
chinists, teletype mechanics, tele-
graph and telephone chiefs, and in
tercept operators with a knowledge
of both German and japanese.
Qualifications for enlistment in
cludes at least six months prior
service in the occupational speciality
listed and sufficient skill to attain
the army standard of competence.

leaders in Harlem until 1880 when
he transferred his allegiance to the
American Labor party, the group
supported by Mr.. LaGuardia. Since
that time, Mr.. Morton has made lit
tie political news.
He was born in Macon, Miss,
and attended Phillips Exeter acad-
emy, New Hampshire, and was
a member of the class of 1909 at
Harvard. After studying law at
Boston university, he engaged in
private practice until 1916 when
he became one of the first members
of his race to be named an assistant
district attorney in the New York
County D. AS office as head of the
indictment bureau. He remained
there until Mayor John F. (Red
Mike) Hylan appointed him to the
commission.
In his new position as president,
Mr.. Morton will receive $500
yearly instead of $4,000 which has
been his salary. His term expires
May 81, 1948, and it is expected that
he will then retire on a pension since
his appointment would be a moot
question. The municipal civil serv-
ice is one of the largest employers
in the country, having $4,000 police
and $4,000 firemen and an almost
as large number of teachers. A num-
ber of Negroes are employed in
each of these municipal services.
