HOME GUARDS NOT TO PROTECT MUNITION PLANTS In Opinion of Governor Holcomb— Railroads Have Assigned Men for Watching Purp Governor Holcomb has received no protests from manufacturers against the withdrawal of military guards from their factories nor requests that the places of the National Guardsmen, who have guarded them, be taken by members of the Home Guard. At the office of the state council of defense it was stated Monday that the manufac- turers of the state, whose places of in- dustry have been protected. have e: pressed their satisfaction with the ar- rangement of the federal government nd have offered no objection to the withdrawal of the guards. They have said that they will suard their prem- ises with their own men. Governor Holcomb did not. think it would he necessary for the state 10 provide suards for the munition and other plants or for the raiiroads and water sheds. The condition of Mr. the state, taken with the vigorous ex- pression of loval sentiment, did not indicate that there was a disposition n the part of any one to destroy property. If. however, there was an pplication from any ona for protec- n to property he would give it ear- nest consideration. and If he thousht it necessary he would send members of the Home Guard to protect it. The Home Guard was the oniy available force which the state had for the purpose and the law gave him ample authority to employ the guard in the protection of property. The scope of the smplovment of the Home Guard was zreater than the suppres- sion of insurrections or disorders, “Do vou think that there is a possi- bility of requiring the services of the Home Guard for the protection of pro- now that the federal troops are removed?’ the governor was T do not.” g Governor Holecomb said to the steps in the vear organ the resources of the state, the nuthor- had the situation well in hand We have got on top of the danger.” sald the govermor. This was well known, and peraaps the dangers with which the state was threatened at one by the knowledse of the fact that the authorities were prepared to meet it. “You do not apprehend any to bridges or to watersheds.. ‘The_governor replied that the York, New Haven and Hartford rail- road company had five hundred men specially assisned to protect its prop- erty including the bridges on its lines. There were few bridges in the state whose destruction would cause serious damage or inconvenience except those over the Connecticut and other rivers. Navigation would be impeded for some time in case a part of a bridge over a river was blown up. Governor Hol- comb was satisfied that the state au- thorities had a firm grasp of the sit- uation in this state, and the existing condition under perfect control. They had made satisfactory arrangements to meet emergencies that might arise from whatever cause. The people of the state had been aroused to the pos- sible danger that confronted them and provision had been made in time for any possibility.” STATE HEALTH DEPARTMENT TO MEET TO ORGANIZE. Dr. John T. Black State Health Com- missioner. Adam- | a; The state board of health went out of existence on June 39 and is now re- placed by the state department of health with Dr. John T. Black as state commissioner of health. In any emer- gency when the health of any locality is menaced, or when any local board | of health or health officer neglects or refuses to comply with the recom- mendations of the etate department, the department may enforce any quar- antine regulations as may be required for the protection of the public health, whereas the board formerly had no power of enforcement of its recom- mendations. The members of the state council of health are Dr. Edward G. Root, Lewis Sperry, C. E._A. Winslow, Dr. Walter H. Brown, J. Frederick Jackson and James A. Newlands.
