ARMY DISCARDS
SENIORITY RULE
FOR PROMOTIONS
Way Is Opened For Enlisted
Men to Win Com
missions
By Associated Press
Washington, Oct. 19.—The historic
seniority rule for Army promotions
was formally set aside to-day tji gov
ern promotions in the National Army
and National Guard.
Officers of either the Regulars,
tho Guard or the National Army are
held to be equally eligible for tem
porary appointment or promotion,
which must be "based solely on dem
onstrated fitness without regard to
seniority."
The new regulations make officers
interchangeable within their own
arms and grades in the service and
the list of reserve corps, second lieu
tenants of the Regular Army is also
made available for appointment of
men in that grade to the other
branches. Stress is laid upon the de
sirability of promoting men within
the unit in which a vacancy occurs
where this Is advisable. In naming
second lieutenants, commanders may
select noncommissioned officers or
officers of the reserve corps as they
deem best. •
