Salem, July 12. Oregon's capital city
enjoys the unique distinction of possess
ing' the first formally dedicated private
aviation field In i the .Northwest, and,
according to some local authorities,' the
first field of its; kind to . be formally

"MMITEB SEBTICE' DETrNTED W
I The attorney general,' in discussing
"limited u service,' gives - his conclusion
as follows:- -::-'.-:.''.'
;"A fair and reasonable Interpretation
Indicates that the legislature only intend
ed to exclude from the benefits of the
act those! men who have been rejected
or . discharged at a mobilisation camp,
prior to full or active participation in
the military service on account of phys
ical disability, on account of being a
registered alien, an alien enemy, or dis
loyal, or on account of dependency,' and
that it was the intention to exclude those
persons who were certified as available
for and subject to non-combatant serv
ice only, on account of religious objec
tions and beliefs, but in no wise did the
legislature intend to exclude those who
had served in the limited service of the
United States army, according to the re
stricted definition of that term used by
the war department.".
LIMITED SEBTICE ABROAD .
BECOGSIZED.
The opinion, states that, the intent was
to exclude by this term only those who.
were limited lit time of servica and those
who, on account of reasons 'shove given,
refused to assume .full, and general du
ties in the service of -the army, 'navy and
marine' corps, but that this does not ap--ply
to limited service men who served
abroad. : r . i . - :

Lieutenant Richard. O. Hansen ; Gover

known as reserves tank corps, motor
transport corps' and naval units, who
were sent to universities and , colleges
for instruction and who never partici
pated in the service of the United States,
though in readiness to do no, are classed
as of a similar natttre to the S. A. T. C
and hence are within the same rule excluding-the
last named service- " .
EX-S. A. T. C. ME3T ELIGIBLE
Men . who were originally members of
the Students Army Training corps and
were sent, to training camps and com-!
missioned in the service of the- United
States, cease to be members of the S. A.
T. C and become members or the regu
lar United States service and are en
titled to the benefits of the act. Those
'who were not commissioned but returned
to their colleges- and continued as mem
bers of the S. A. X. C. are not .entitled
to the benefits of the act, since they were
not transferred to any other branch of
the service.. Those; who were commis
sioned as above and detailed as instruct
ors of the S. A. T. C in the various col
leges - and universities are of the same
status as any other regular army - of
ficers who were detailed for such service.
DORMITOBT QUESTION AKSWEHED
' Questions are answered with reference
to. the provisions of section 4, the ruling
being that if any. Institution does not
maintain dormitories - the requirements
can be met by the head of the institution

- It Is held that, an applicant may pur
sue a course of study for a time in one
institution and by cancelling his applica
tion' and filing another with another in
stitution may transfer from one institu
tion 'to another ; also, it a soldier, sailor
or marine pursues a course of study in
an institution for m" portion of - a year
and for any cause does not attend the
entire year, such circumstance '. does not
constitute a full year under, the provi
sions' of- the law, buthe is entitled o
four full years' attendance, and such at
tendance may.be made up of parts of
years if the circumstances so require;
The statute does not require that all of
such attendance be within four' years of
time, but no benefits are allowed after
four-full years' attendance. . . s

.-Attention Is called to. the fact that the
money to be derived from the tax. levy
provided in the statute will not be avail'
able .for the payment, of claims arising
under the act until about. March,, 1920,
and therefore, while claims may oe in
Curred, that Is, the persons entitled to
the benefits of the act may commence
their courses of study at any time since
