10 # - ■■■ ■ ■ ✓ Army and Navy News Army. Application for retirement ha* been forwarded to the War Department by Maj. Gen. Fred T. Austin, chief of Field Artillery. Gen. Austin, when appointed to his present post, on December 20, 1927. came from the Philippines and he will have served two years of his normal tour of duty of four years as chief of the Field Artillery arm on December 20, 1929. It is understood that he ap peared before an Army retiring board last week and it is expected that his application will be duly passed on by the board and sent to the department for the approval of the Secretary of War. If approved, Gen. Austin will be granted the customary leave prior to re tirement, and he will probably be placed on the retired list of the Regular Army, effective about February 1, 1930. Gen. Austin served in the Spanish- American War as a first lieutenant and was advanced through the various grades until he was appointed a briga dier general in the National Army in 1918. With the reduction of the Army after the armistice he reverted to the grade of colonel, which grade he held until his appointment as chief of Field Artillery, with the rank of major gen eral, in December, 1927. Gen. Austin is a graduate of Norwich University, class of 1838. and is a holder of the Distinguished Service Medal. If the War Department approves the memorandum sent to the assistant chief of staff, Gl, In which 33 addi tional officers are requested to be de tailed to the Finance Department, It Is contemplated relieving 18 of the officers of other departments assigned to duties of the Finance Department and 15 ad- j dttional property auditors could then be assigned to the various corps areas and departments where their services are urgently required. For some time the Army Finance Department has been handicapped by lack of sufficient per sonnel. The act of June 4. 1920, cre ating the Finance Department, author ised a chief and 141 other officers. The act of June 30. 1922, authorized 70 per cent of this number, leaving a total of 99 officers, but the President, under au thority granted him by the same act Increased the number assigned by 30 per cent, bringing It up to 129, which, with the chief of finance, makes a total of 130, the number now authorized. At this commissioned strength the Finance Department has found it im practicable to have a finance disbursing officer at every station where one is needed and as a result commanding of ficers have been compelled to designate officers from the other branches to per form finance duties, including disburs ing, at 34 separate stations. Among these are 16 Quartermaster Corps offi cers, 9 from the Ordnance Department, 5 from the Corps of Engineers and 1 officer each from the Cavalry, Infantrv, Coast Artillery Corps and Field Artillery-. Col. George E. Kumpe, who arrived In Washington last week from Mon mouth, N. J., where he was on duty as commandant of the signal school and in command of that post, has assumed ■his duties as executive officer, office of the Chief Signal Officer of the Army. His duties at Fort Monmouth have been taken over by Col. Arthur S. Cowan,- S. C. Navy. A board of Medical Corps officers of the Navy will be oppointed for the pur pose of recommending two officers of that corps for promotion to the rank of rear admiral to fill vacancies that will result from the retirement of Rear Ad miral George T. Smith, who was placed on the retired list of the Navy October 9, upon his own application, after more than 40 years’ service, and of Rear Ad miral Albert M. D. McCormick, who will be retired on March 27. 1930. upon reaching the statutory retirement age. The senior 22 captains of the Medical Corps are eligible for consideration by the board. They are Rand P. Crandall. George T. Smith, Luther L von Wede kind, Robert M. Kennedy, Norman J. Blackwood. Adrian R. Alfred, James F. Leys, Frank C. Cook. Charles M. De Valin, Ammen Farenholt, Charles P.

A board of officers will be convened at the Navy Department next Tuesday for the purpose of recommending two officers of the corps of professors of mathematics for promotion to the rank of captain. One vacancy exists In that rank as a result of the retirement for age of Capt. William S.

Comp, incident to the retirement of Lieut. Walter S. Falk on account of physical disability. A tabulated statement has been pre D. C. Naval Reserve Provision has been made in the drill schedule of the Ist Battalion, United States Naval Reserves of the District of Columbia, for 13 regular drills and 4 periods of equivalent instruction, mak ing a total of 17 training periods for the quarter ending December 31, according to the schedule just promulgated by Lieut. Comdr. Finney Bascom Smith, commander of the organization fol lowing approval by Lieut. Comdr. R. S. Field. U. S. N., commander of the de stroyer Abel P. Upshur and inspector instructor of the local organization. The schedule prepared by Lieut. Samuel W. Sttnemetz. executive officer ;of the local battalion, provides for a I full use of the training ship for drill purposes during the quarter. The men will be taken from the armory to the ship, berthed at the Washington Navy Yard, each drill night, for the purpose of giving them practical instruction, and this is to be supplemented by il lustrated lectures in the armory by the various division officers and their as sistants. While the majority of the men are at drill the examining board will con vene each drill night and summon a specified quota before it for tests to de termine their qualifications for promo tion to the next higher rating than the one now held. A large number of men have been recommended for examina tion as a result of proficiency shown by them on the recent annual cruises. It will require some time for the board to go through the entire list, and upon com pletion recommendations will be sent to the Navy Department for the promotion of those who successfully pass through the examinations of the board. Navy day exercises wiM be held by the battalion on October 28, it was announced. The battalion will keep open house at the armory, and during the day the destroyer Abel P. Upshur, their training ship, will be open to visitors to the Washington Navy Yard. Reservists will be there to explain the various parts of the ship to those who come abroard. The exercises at the armory will in clude a series of drills, an address by some prominent speaker, not yet se lected, and probably a smoker for the enlisted personnel, during which there will be a series of boxing bouts. The Ist Fleet Division tomorrow will have bag inspection, while the deck rat ings of the 2d Fleet Division will be instructed on the bridge of the Upshur in navigational gear and equipment. the engineer ratings to take a course of training in the flreroom. The 3d Fleet Division will listen to an illustrated lecture on naval customs and etiquette and naval uniforms, under the direction of Ensign Cleland. Frank J.

WEST VIRGINIA. THE SUNDAY STAR. WASHINGTON, D. C„ OCTOBER 13, 1929-PART 6, pared by the Bureau of Navigation showing the enlisted personnel replace ments required during the six-month period beginning November 1. 1929, on the Asiatic station, Guam, Samoa, and the 14th Naval District. Efforts will be made by the recruiting service and all commands affoat and ashore toward meeting these demands by the assign ment of volunteers and as far as pos sible upon re-enlistment. Greater effi ciency can be gained by lessening the turnover of enlisted personnel in the forces afloat through the assigning of volunteers upon re-enlistment. The forces afloat will be required to complete the required replacements by assigning volunteers or by detailing men in the required ratings where volun teers are not available. Quota of men for Asiatic station only will be assigned to the commander-in-chief of the battle fleet, the commander of the scouting fleet and the commander of the control force. These quotas will be reduced from time to time as necessary. Ice, has been ordered up for examina tion for promotion to the rank of lieu tenant commander. It was said at the Reserve headquarters that he will take the prescribed examination before De cember 1 next. Some faults found by the Regular Navy Board, which inspected Resene organizations early in the year, have been made public by the Navy Depart ment. The report said that while mast of the fleet divisions have reached a satisfactory degree of proficiency, other features of training having to do with their fitness aboard ship do not appear to show progress over the previous year. The inequality in armory and j instruction equipment which was noted last year is said to still exist, although not in such marked and un doubtedly handicapped some divisions in acquiring greater efficiency. Lack of engineering instruction equipment is noticeable in most divisions. Attendance on Inspection nights con tinued to be generally very good. How ever, it was said that inasmuch as six weeks' notice of the inspection date is given, the board is of the opinion that I at least 90 per cent of the divisional strength should be present at the an nual inspection. In its last annual re- 1 port the board announced that it con templated penalizing severely a unit that did not present a high percentage of its personnel at the inspection, and so this year decided to give no stand ing to divisions which had less than 40 ment present. The appearance of the persqnnel was satd. generally, to be most commendable and in many divisions was excellent. However, some few officers, chief petty officers and ex-Navy men, the personnel who should set a good example, are careless to their personal appearance and continue to wear shabby uniforms which should be replaced. The report said that it appeared that the matter of instruction of officer personnel requires considerable atten tion. The majority of officers, it was said, are devoting only the weekly drill period to reserve duties, and it was added that study and instruction out side of this period are requisite for officers to keep up their professional qualifications. Classroom instruction has not imp proved appreciably over last year. This phase, to the opinion of the board, is one to which very serious attention should be given by all concerned. There is a need for a continued effort to present instruction to such a manner as to make It interesting and easily grasped. It is thoroughly essential that those officers and men acting as instructors prepare instruction matter to advance of instruction.- The board reported that it noted that, in units where the instruction period is made really instructive, the men are kept in terested and there is relatively less turnover. Instruction, the board re ported, must be graduated to the men’s intelligence and previous knowledge and experience TOURS. i ' ■— ■■ ■" ■ ■■ don^i «ap*% greater i^pmanq Mediterranean cruises by the world’* greatest travel system There is a one best “Mediterranean Cruise.” So, the demand grows for Canadian Pacific’s way ... a demand founded on the enthusiasm of 5,000 people who have expe rienced their Mediterranean with the world’s greatest travel systeigl XJifrefore, 2 Mediterranean Cruises this winter This season’s itinerary adds many off-the-beaten track places...Majorca,Sicily, Venice, Dubrovnik, and Greece, from quaint Corfu to glorious Athens.
