Washington, Fob. »—Senator
Wanks, of Massachusetts, la tho eu
thor of o bill which la said to correctly
raflset tha santianoot of tho army of
Deem towards tha man who eoms to
at tho “aldo door" as they doocribo
mmmlsrtoaed officers who hava sot
had tha advantamt of Want Point
training. Tha bill provides that the
graduates from Weat Point Military
academy from 1016 to 1921 Inclusive,
•hall talc* rank tamodlatoly bolow tha
cad«t last graduating frum tho acad
emy. The moaning of tha bill is that
tha young man of the country who era
commissioned through examinations
aad tho enlisted men who pass suc
cessful examinations as provided by
the law and are eligible for commis
sions must bo set behind In grade the
cadets who come from West Point to
1621.
The effect of the bill la to place ca
dets, who ha» a not yet entered West
Point, but who will graduate four
yaan from now, ahead of tho officer*
who have entered the army from civil
llfo aad by 1P21 will have had five
to oix yean active service as officers
la tha army.
It la not necessary to state that tha
proposed measure is heartily condemn
ed by the officora who have recently
gone Into the army from dvfl life and
these who are familiar with its pro
visions and believe in a square deal.
Under the present system the Weat
Peiat cadets are being graduated af
ter leaving high school and serving
abom throe at Went Point, hot still
they are V\ot coming fast enough to
produce.all tho officers needed. Tho
Csngvaas provided last year for ob
taining about 1500 additional offioara
from civil life and many are now Id
tho army after having passed rigid
examinations with credit to them
selves.
In Urn event of tho Passage of ilia
Weeks bill these 1/200 officers must
take rank in 1021 behind tha second
lieutenants just out of school, even
though they have the moat rlgeroai
