CHICAGO, Aug. 4.—-After the calm-

than a week. the work was begun to-
day of selecting a grand jury beft'U.
which will come the cases of white
men and negroes accused of parizct-
paling in the race riots which caused
the death of twenty negroes and tltir-
teen whites and the injury or, nun-
dreds. ‘
The coroner has fixed the number of'
dead at 33 and the city health commis-
aioner has found that 306,.peopre in-
jured in the riots were treated in hos-
pitals. He expressed the opinion, how-
ever. that perhaps 400 or more ‘vrno
were injured in the riots never report
ed at hospitals, and consequently the
total number of injured will never be
known omcinlly.
The state troops had little to do dur-

Plans for a permanent peace time
army of 510.000 officers and men and
a system of universal military train;

day by Secretary Baker. I
The plans were embodied in a bill!
which represents the policy of the!
War Department with respect to the;

Under the, measure. all special serv—~
ices built up during the war would be t
maintained as separate branches, ex-l
cept the chemical warfare serviced
which would be marked with the engi;
neers' corps. ‘.
Three months' military training for
youths of 19 would be made compuls-
ory and promotion of officers by seni—
ority would be ablished. Secretary
Baker said the war had shown this
system of promotion to be defective.
No change in the existing law with
. regard to the organization of the Na-'
'tional Guard and its relation to the
Regular Army was suggested. Mr.
Baker said it was assumed that the
national defense act fedemlizing the
guard would be retained in force.
