REORGANIZATION OF BATALLIONS IN EXPERIMENT War Department Tests Change To Improve Efficiency Washington. Aug. 16—(UP)—An expet iinental reorganization of the infantry's fighting unit, the battalion, to provide mere killing power by adding automatic rifles v|iti'iout detracting from mobility, has been announced by i the war department. The 29th Infantry, a war-strength regiment, now stationed at Ft. Benning Ga.. will conduct tests of the new organization plan. No permanent changes in organization are contemplated until these tests are concluded under 'observation of the Infantry board and conclusions drawn therefrom by the general staff, it was stated. The present organization, adopted just after the world war, includes in each regiment three battalions, a howitzer company, and administrative units. Each battalion includes a ma-chine-gun ; company and three rifle companies. Each rifle company has three platoons of six squads, each squad containing seven titles and one automatic rifle. Since this was adapted, machinegun strength has been increased by 50 per cent, and experimentation lias evolved a still more powerful fighting unit by adding machine guns and automatic rifle equipment. Rifle Company of 4 Platoons The important change produced is to make up each rifle company of four platoons, three being equipped with magazine rifles and the fourth to consist of 24 automatic rifles. An alternative plan which may be worked out is to provide each platoon in a company with an automatic rifle squad for “mop-up" work. Other changes in "war division” organization being considered include addition of a regiment of 155 mm howitzers to the artillery brigade, and providing each division with at battalion of tanks instead of a single company. The increase if carried into full effect would increase the equipment expense, dealing a blow to President Hoover's project to reduce military expenses; Automatic rifles, tanks and howitzers in added numbers would make a division much more expensive to equip and operate. • o Mr. and Mrs. Francis Howell and sftn Billy and Miss Gladys Whitrighl motored to Marion today to spend the week-end with Mr. Howell's Mr. and Mrs. Charles Howell.
