Noncona Officers

Continuing the effort toward
making an Army career at
tractive to young men of high
character Is the new career
plan for ~noncommissioned Of
ficers which was recently an
nounced by the War depart
ment according to information
received at the Army recruit
ing station located at 2822k
First Avenue North, Billings.
Under the new plan, all en-
listed men will be required to
qualify for promotion to the
three highest reconnaissance
grades by taking a competitive
examination. In addition, all
NCO's now in the first three
grades will be required to take
an examination in order to re-
tain the grade they now hold
with the exception of men who
have ten years or more service
who have held their present
or a higher grade for three or
more years.
The plan calls for abolishing
all technician grades and a
change in the titles of two of
the top n~oncommissioned grades.
Staff sergeant and technical
sergeant will be discontinued
and the grade of sergeant first
class and senior sergeant will
be created. The new series of
noncommissioned grades will be
corporal, sergeant, sergeant
first class, senior sergeant and
master sergeant. The title of
first sergeant will be a job as
signment, and, as at present,
will be in the first pay grade.
A proposal now before con-
gres will provide for four grades
of warrant officer to be filled
by competitive examination.
The new warrant officer grades
will carry the pay and allow
ance of a second lieutenant.
first lieutenant, captain and
major respectively. These
changes, with the exception of
the new grades of warrant Of
ficer, do not require congress

sional approval and will create
for enlisted men virtually an
open road to the pay and al
lowance of q major.
If the new warrant officer
grades are authorized, the
greatly increased number of
warrant officers and flight Of
ficers will take over many ad-
ministrative Jobs such as mess
officers, supply officer, adult
ant and others now performed
by commissioned officers. Fin
ally, a warrant officer or flight
officer may retire at the end
of 20 years service with ap-
propriate retirement pay, but
In order to make room for pro-
motion of other men coming
up, they must retire at the end
of 80 years of active service.
From the time a soldier is
promoted to private first class,
he will be encouraged to quail
ify for a commission, thus it
will be up to the individual
himself as to how fast he will
advance, as well as the high
est rank he may attain.
Under the new plan. the
number of ~noncommissioned
officers authorized for the en-
tire Army will be greatly in

of poor widows" who would suf-
fer by the issuance of additional
cab licenses.
The hearing was part of the
fight conducted by veterans cab
associations, aided by Alderman
Frank Keenan, (49th ward) and
others, to amend the city ordin-
ance to make licenses available
to veteran drivers.
A PROPOSAL for licensing s.
600 rather than 5000 Chicago
taxicabs was presented to the
Council this week by Alderman
Frank keenan, and Alderman The
ron w. Merryman (45th ward).
This figure was upped to $500
on the suggestion of Alderman
Thomas Keane.
Joseph Grossman, assistant
corporation counsel was instruct
ed to prepare an ordinance which
would stand up legally.
But the last word in this long
fought battle for cab licenses is
not likely to be heard for some
time.
The present city ordinance
provides for the licensing of s.
900 cabs, with about 1900 of
the licenses going to Yellow
and Checker companies, which
also have an option on the next
1,081 licenses issued.
LAST YEAR the City Council
voted to issue 275 licenses to vets,
then approved issuance of an ad-
ditional ITO licenses for vet driv-
ers.
Appealed to the Illinois SUI
preme Court by the two big cab
companies, the action of the City
Council was declared Illegal.
Now the fight has taken the di-
rection of raising the maximum
of authorized licenses to 5000,
thus making some 900 availableI
for the 1900 vet drivers on the
streets without licenses.
GREATEST opposition to this
measure has come from the cab
companies and from officials of
Local TIT, Taxicab Drivers Union
(AFL).
Officially the union has in-
sisted that issuance of more IL
censes would endanger the live
lihO0d of it's members, that op-
Grafton of the vet cabs has al
ready reduced the earnings Of
drivers for Yellow and Checker.
Other sources, including many
| of the drivers, think, the number
of cabs on the street is much less
important than the outcome of
the unions demands for a higher
commission and a guaranteed
daily wage.
