Army reorganization bill outlined by Hull and Corbin
The Tribune summarized the army reorganizing bill introduced by Congressman Hull. Provisions include merging staff with the line, creating a general staff, limited tenure for chiefs, merit based promotions, regimental chaplains, and potential abolition of staff corps by the president. Corbin hailed its merit selection plan and stronger presidential control, while promising gradual artillery expansion and detailed officer details without disturbing current staff tenure.
