GERMAN PAPERS NOTICE
ARRIVAL OF AMERICANS
AMSTERDAM, May ID. All the
German papers print the news of the
arrival of Ihe American destroyer
flotilla in I'.uropean waters under n
single headline. The I.okal Anzeier
heads the item: "Xow the Americans."
In striking contrast to the dilly
dallying and blckerrhgs of congress,
the prompt action of the war depart
ment stands out In marked compar
ison In the manner in which orders
began flying out over tho wires In
a few minutes after the president
had signed tho army conscription
measure. Yesterday within an hour
or two orders had been received In
-Modford to Immediately proceed to
recruit tho Seventh Company to full
war strength In anticipation of tho
call to the colors on July 15, on which
date all coast artillery trops are to
bo mobllied.
As the conscription provisions of
the army bill are to be carried into
effect on June 5, enlistments in the
national guard organizations will be
greatly stimulated. For many rea
sons enlistment in a national guard
organization Is to be desired owing to
to probability of advancement and re
ceiving commissions In the army to
be conscripted. It has been announced
by the war department that 10,000
officers and non-convmlssloned offi
cers will be selected from the regu
lars and national, guard organiza
tion:, for at.lgnment to tho new army
to l.c formed under the selective draft
::; ?l ::u September. This will open
up cnori.'.nltlcs thut will bo available
to those qualified for commissions,
and who wore not eligible or did not
get a place In the officers training
camps already established.
Captain Vance states that about
35 enlistments can be received In the
7th company before the maximum of
150 Is reached, and It is expected
that this number will apply for n
place In the company within the next
few days, after which no further en
listments can be accepted. Opportu
nity for advancement In the 7th com
pany is still open to the new enlist
ments, ub it Is not intended to make
tho appointments of sergeants and
corporals until the full number of 150
has been reached, after which the
selections will bo made from those
best qualified for tho places. Thoro
are 10 sergeants and 15 corporals to
bo appointed In the Seventh company.
As these appointments are made by
the captains of the various organiza
tions based oii the qualifications of
tho men themselves, the opportunity
Is open for any member of the organ
ization to make rapid advancement
through the 7th company and thence
ns nn officer In the new army to 1te
called In Soptembei. Two members
of, tho 7th company have already
been selected for appointment to the
officers' training camp 111 San Fran
cisco, and will report for duty next
woek. Aside from tho advantage of
being a non-commissioned oflcer.
the difference in puy Is nn important
item, as under tho army bill just
passed the pay for non-coms runs
as high lis $50 or $ 0 per month,
besides exemption from spud peeling
and other equally obnoxious duties
of tho prlvato soldier.
It Is Intended to at once begin a
school for those ambitious to secure
appointment to the non-com staff of
the 7tb company. In order that the
company will be fullyorganlzed and
ready for the call to duty on July 15.
Captain Vance expects to entrain
with a company fully capable of sus
taining the high record set by the
company in the past, and ready "to
take its place In line wherever duty
calls.
