the followlflg announcement Con-. JCerningthte poltcy of the War de- partment relative to the commis- sjoning of reserve officers and their assigxuflft tii active dutY. Wtb respect to membership int.he officers' réserve corps, the War de- partmentis in a vastly different sit- uation than that which existed prior t. to e World war. At Present, the réserve eorpýshas more than 100.000 ofereigibl e for active duty. Few vacancies exist and these are ini the lôwest.grades, and the, reserve offi-. cers' trainmng corps and the citiz.ns' military training camps provide a" large .annual .group of' splendid youmg.candidates for thecorps. Ap- pointments are not being made in the specialist reserve, the miitary intelligence reserve, or the judge ad- vocate general's department reserve due to the. exceis number of officers now on the roils in these depart- ments. At present most of th~e èerve officers on active dutY for longer than two..week periods are air corps reserve lieutenants on dutY wîth the regular army air corps, and a group of 6W0 second lieutenants for onie year of active duty with the regular armY grow'd troops, comPeting for permanlent commissions. Select Schoel GrouP * Exept or afew officers selected for active duty . as stdnst h spécial service schools, and the corn- ma~nd and general staff school for a period of three months, and for a, very small group on dutY with the War departmfent general staff, no provisions of law exist which will permit the detailiiig of officers ofý these grades to active duty for pe- riods in excess of 14 days. The scbool group is now being selected. There are no vacaficies for assign- ment to the general staff.
