"The TTnited" States marine corps still offers an excellent opportunity to the adventurous youth to see the world and 14,000 of such men are wanted to enlist in the marine corps during the coming year for a period' of four years, de clared Colonel A. S. McLemore, in charge of all marine corps recruiting; "Who was in Portland yesterday. Colonel McLemore is completing a tour of all the marine corps recruiting stations of the country, made with the object of reorganizing and expanding the recruiting service. He will leave here tonight for the Seattle office. His headquarters are in Washington. D. C "The present strength of the marine orps, said Colonel McLemore, is 67, 000 officers and men. only 14.000 of whom are enlisted for the .regular four year period. The remainder are being discharged -from the service as fast e.s possible. The peace strength of the marine corps has been set by congress at 36,000. so it is necessary to double the number of men enlisted for four- jrear periods within a year. "There is a chance for new recruits to be put on interesting duties at Guam, Manila, other island possesions of the United States, and in various other parts of the 'world. "We expect a steady flow of recruits to begin about April 1. after the men discharged from the national army have had a chance to play hero for awhile and reacauaint themselves with the homef oiks.
