KLAMATH FAUf, OREGON Army Tosses Out Archaic System Of Promotion In Favor Of New Program WASHINGTON, At. 7 The arar's arehalo aystem of promotion by seniority went out the .window today with President Truman's aim ing of leflslatlon aetllnf up a per- raanent promotlon-bjr-merlt pro gram (or the army and nary. One of the lengthiest and most- rompllcated measure enacted by the Mlh eonfresii at 111 tint session, the lerfslatlon I the outgrowth of months of study by committees. In addition to setting up a new promouon system for the armed forces and tightening the navy's existing advancement system, the bill cuts down on the number of high-ranking officers In both serv ices and abolishes in peacetime the wartime rank of five-star officer. However, It does not effect tho rank of the eight officers now holding five star rank. I Officers Affected Affecting directly or Indirectly j the status of an estimated 175,000 j officers In both services, the lrgisla- tion is intended to encourage the i better-qualified men and to weed out I through a process of elimination thou unfit for command. The new plan provides for pro- j motion of officers by selection in the lower ranks, with boards of officers determining the qualifications of ap plicants for advancement Failure to meet the advancement qualifications twice in succession, authors ol the bill said, will automatically drop an officer from the service. One of the major provisions of the new act is a limitation on four star officers. It limits the peace time military establishment to 14 four-star officers after July 1. 1948. five for the army, four for the navy. - four fox the air corps and one for the marine corps. In addition, the president's chief of staff would hold four-star rank while serving in that capacity. There would be 62 three-star offi cers. 23 In the army, 14 in the air corps, two in the marine corps and U in the nary. The army would have 123 Iwo-sUr generals and lot one-sur generals. Until such time as the armed ser vices' strength reaches the levels prescribed by permanent law; the new law continues the present svs tem of temporary promotions for temporary-duty officers. For the navy, the legislation Intro, duces for the first time the selective system of promotion in the- grade of admiral. Hereafter, an officer of admiral rank must Justify his reten tion in that rank after each four years of service. One result of that change, the committee said, will be to permit outstanding officers to become ad mirals at an earlier age by weeding out the older men ahead of them who can't qualify to retain their sta tus. Another chance is the Intrwiu. Hon of limited duty officers into the nary system. These officers will come from enlisted and warrant of ficer ranks only. They mar rise as high as commander, but will be as signed to specialised duties not com petltiv with general line officers. Held On Murder Charge ' I &r T-j).',; ' .. 1 Marriage Llrne.
