Officers' Poinf Plan Disclosed
WASHINGTON, Sept. 7 — (UP)—The War Department today established a new discharge point system for commissioned officers which will return some 600,000 of its 800,000 leserve officers to civilian life by next July
1.
It estimated that 20,000 officers will be immediately eligible for discharge under critical point scores to be computed on the same basis as those for enlisted
men. The officer scores -
Colonels, lieutenant colonels and majors, 100; captains and first and second 1 eutenants, 85, \varrant and flight officers, 80; nurses, 65; WAC officers of all grades, 44. and physical therap-
ists and divtitians, 41.
No provision was made for the relAse of general officeis—brig-
adier generals and above.
The system applies to all arms and services within the army but provides that officers with lower scores may be released for the convenience of the gover nment where there are no suitable assignments for them. This means
I that Terre Haute had been chosen for the site of the demon stration. Dr. W. P. Allyn of tlu Indiana State Teachers College was named to assist Dr. Bur-
ney.
Work on the experlmnt will begin in a few days, the health
yommissioner said.

barrels, or other containers are mat left around the farmstead to catch water and thus become a potential source of danger foi young members of the family. 2. All sides of the stock watering tank should be well above the general level of the ground. No. rocks, lumber piles, machinery or other material should be piled against any side of the stock tank. Safety can be greatly enhanced if the tank itself s covered or fenced off. 3. Cisterns and wells on farms should be inspected periodically to make sure that the covering is secure, and that there are no openings that may result in a tragedy. Even depressions near the farmstead should be filled in or properly drained in order to protect young children. 4. The importance of farm ponds has been emphasized in recent years, but care should be taken to make sure that these ponds are properly protected. The "old swimming l»le” should be a safe spot with a gradual slope (no holes or drop-offs), dear of broken glass and other debris. Swimming should be permitted only in that spot. Emergency equipment should be on hand near the old swimming hole, for the protection of farm residents. A long pole with a loop on one end or a fence pole that can be easily shoved out toanyone needing help, or a coil of rope near by will help to make swimming safer. 5. Members of all farm families should be taught to swim and should know the basic rules such as never going in the water when tired, overheated or immediately after eatii%, jn never swimming alone.
