Opens 4 Fine Career Prospects for Young Men in Philippine Constabulary
The War Department considers offering promising military careers in the Philippine Constabulary for American military school graduates. General Henry Allen favors recruiting 15 to 20 well qualified officers annually, arguing they would accelerate progress and elevate overall personnel quality. Pay ranges from 800 to 1000 dollars plus allowances, with duties mirroring higher noncommissioned officers and battalion command responsibilities. The policy favors veterans and local selection by the Philippine government, but Allen’s plan may be accepted to raise the constabulary’s standards.
