WASHINGTON, Oct. l.Whlle tne
war department has not made definite
announcement concerning the tHiird
series of training camps, and has not
even finally staled that there would bo
a third ae.-les ol camps, Wore. Is little
reason to doubt now that a third ser
ies will open very noon after the pros
ent Instruction camps are closed, prob
ably in the Vitter part of November.
it was also fairly well settled that
these camps will be filled largely by
designation of enlisted men of the rcg
ular army, the national guard and the
national ivrmy, and there will be a good
opportunity for "11011 coins" and prl-i
vates also to gain commissions through
these camps. Civilians are not exclu
ded, and some with special qualifica
tions will 110 doubt be admitted, but Ad
jutant General McCain tells Senator
Chamberlain that the enlisted man
will be given preference under present ,
plans.
One reason for departmental reluc
tance In announcing plans this far
ahead probably Is due to the fact that)
the funds needed are only now being i
provided In the big deficiency bill, j
In fact, as this bill passed the house,
it contained nothing for future train
ing of officers. It then carried au Item
of ISIO.OOO to cover the existing deft-
HeifiHu-y In the camps now running. The
senate committee udded 4tH.u00, with
the purpose of providing for a third
series of camps, upon' estimates (tub
milted by the war dcpurnonl.
Upon Senator Wadworth's lnslntenco
that the training cump section was not
In proper form, the senate struck It
tall out, with the understanding that
the conferees would restore It In bet
ter form, no hostility to the camps be
ing intended by the action taken. The
.number of men to be received In the
j next series of training camps Is not do
; elded, but It Is expeetel to be approx
imately the same as In the nresent
amps, about 22,000 men.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1 Knnetmeiit
Into law this week of the great war tax
bill, was regarded us certain today by
leader ot both houses. The report will
be presented to the house tomorrow
and the senate probably on Tuesday,
and by Thursday at the latest, the bill
should bo ready for the president's sig
nature. Estimating the Income and excess
profit taxes haxcN has proved difficult
for the experts. Tbe latest unofficial
estimate, prepared tonight, shows a to
tal or approximately $2,10,oi)0,000,
with Indications that the final figures
will be probably $15,000,000 higher, It
