There is much speculation as to what will be the status of such men as have unexpired State enlistments, ] and who will not take the new hitch under the National Government. ] At the armory this afternoon the officers of the command frankly ed- ( mitted that they were seeking legal light as to the possibilities of the ( cas, and that they did not intend to cross the new bridge until they got to it by the route of being mustered out of the United States service. Radical change must be made tn the ] law providing for the organization of the United States Army as the result ( of the experience of the National ( Guard on the Texas border, accord- ing to one of the highest officers of the Beventh Regiment. “Our service,” he sald, “has clearly demonstrated the fact that National ( Guard troops cannot be utilised as @ part Of the first line of national de- fense. Such @ use of the guard is utterly foreign to its purpose and or- ganization. The new military law which contemplates such service will ( have to be radically amended, “Our men went to the front cheer- ( fully and gladly, They did not have @ square deal in the Spanish-Ameri- ] can War and they wanted to show that they were ready and willing. ( They did this and more, But they did not have the training. They did not have the experience, They were game to stick jt through the hikes and the rough work and Cad made, in many respects, @ better showing than the regulars, That is especially true with reference to personal conduct, “But soldiers are not made over night. We realized that our men had a difficult task in icking wlong with ] seasoned, trained mén, “Ag another aspect of the case, our men are not professional soldiers, They had to leave their business or their employment, as the case might be, without provision for resuming It when they got home. They are asked to take up the burden of regular ser- vice with none of the regular’s assur- ] ance that he is taken care of when his immediate campaign ends, “The guard and the regulars do not harmonize, They will not ft into a scheme which 1s designed to place | them on the same footing as first line troops, The remedy will have to be some form of universal, compulsory service, “This 1s true, not only of the guard, but of the regulars themselves. The experience of the recent border ser- vice has shown that the rejular army is not able to recruit its ranks to the size that is fixed by law. In spite of all of the recruiting efforts, the army has not supplied the men authorized by the Army Bill for the regulare, “Nor will they, in my Judgment, be able to do so, “In considering the guard aspect, ( quite apart from our own regiment, I am informed that among some of the (| rextments that nave come hack from | the border as high as 60 per cent, of some of the commands has simply disappeared after being mustered out of the Federal service. These men have merely failed to report to their militia commands at all after they have been allowed to get off the Fed- era} payroll. Earn Money Knitting at Home.
