I WAR DEPARTMENT PLANS TO MAKE ARMY GREATER j Washington, Aug. 1.?War depart-1 ment recommendations for eniarg- j ing the army and for the extension of j the draft age limitations in order tc ! provide new reservoirs of man-power J to back up the forces already at the j front will be laid before congress next week. Members of the two military committees have been called to Washington by the chairmen in or- j der to expedite the bill. Secretary Baker would not say j what age figure had been settled up- i on nor indicate in any way che size of the army which he is planning, j "Any suggestion to extend the' draft ages to produce in Class one an j adequate number of men for the en-1 larged military program. If the ages | are revised, they will have to be ei- j ther below 21 or above 31 or both. I ^- -1- ^ -*l U..4.V >? LXiiriK it win ue uutu. i "My personal preference is to 20! up first," he added. "The only specific information re- i garding the new age limits to be! drawn from Mr. Baker was a state- j msnt that the limits of 19 to 40 had' been among the suggestions canvassed, but rejected. In many quarters it is believed extension to the j ags of 19 and 36 will be recommend-1 ed. From the purely army standpoint,! this has been a boy's war from the start. The quick recuperative pow-i ers of youth have been vitally neces-j sary to the military machine under! the conditions of modern warfare Older men are slower to recover and I are therefore of more limited use to! the army. On the other hand, however, there! are a great number of men who could j be called out of the higher ages, even; up to 45. As to the size of the army for I this increased Class 1 is necessary no : official has dropped a hint, with the! exception of General March, who, in j announcing the creation of a Julyj schedule of six new divisions follow-! ed by a August schedule for the same j number, has indicated the embarka- j tion upon such a monthly program. I At this rate approximately .250,000 ! men a month will be sent overseas, j their places in the home canton- j nnnntc +/\ Kq *-a Iron Kv Fif) DOO nPUB | men. Under such & schedule, with j provision already existing for the i housing and training of 1,750,000 j i men in the United States, a full six i months of training on this side, both j in divisional and replacement camps before men were sent over to complete their courses behind the lines would be possible. It is not certain that the department is aiming at the creation of a force of any definite size. CITATION NOTICE. STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA County of Lexington. By George S.
