JOHNSON SAY
Corps of 120,000 Trained Men Goal, War Aid Tells Association.
Expansion of Reserve Officers Training Corps facilities in colleges is planned by the War Department, Louis Johnson, assistant Secretary of War, told Indiana Reserve Officers’ Association meeting in the Claypool Hotel Saturday night. “I trust Congress, now awake to the needs of national defense, will go a long way toward helping us realize the program the War Department has set up,” he said. “We have as our goal a corps of 120,000 trained reserve officers.” Mr. Johnson received his first military at Ft. Benjamin Harrison, where he was commissioned captain in the Officers’ Reserve Corps of the Army during the World War.
Col. Turner Is Guest
Col. Fred H. Turner, chief of staff of the Indiana military area, was guest of honor at the banquet. “Reserve officers are the minutemen of today,” Mr. Johnson said. “To us, the Army offers neither a career, an avocation nor a hobby, but simply an opportunity to perform a sacred patriotic duty.” Since World War days, Mr. Johnson said, strength of the Reserve Corps has been increased from less than 3000 officers to almost 100.000. “The War Department mobilization plan recognizes that man power can be raised and trained much more rapidly than it can be equipped. The plan provides for a small protective force of about 300,000 men, which will be augmented gradually until it reaches one million men at the end of a threemonth period.”

For Chest Colds
Distressing cold in chest or throat, mever safe to neglect, generally eases up when soothing, warming Musterole is applied. Better than a mustard plaster, Musterole gets action because it's NOT just a salve. It's a “counterirritant” —stimulating, penetrating, and helpful in drawing out local congestion and pain. Used by millions for 30 years. Recommended by many doctors and nurses. All druggists’. In three strengths: Regular Strength, Chil dren’s (mild), and Extra Strong. Apby Good Housekeeping. e=Ad
