I, AHExr CALL /:
MORE CAREFUL EXAMINATION
will Admit Only Mem Who Come Up
to the Standard Of Army
Regulations
Aasnclatsd press specIal wire

Associated Press Special Wire
eiN FRANCISCO. May 22.-Pians for
the reorganization Of the National guard
of California are now occupying the at
teution Of its superior officers. All the
members Of the guard who were mustered
in AZ volunteers did 80 with the implied UNI
that when they returned from
the war they would be restored to their
several ranks and companies. How to re-
organise the several commands and at the
same time make room for those who shall
return Is what Is being debated at this
time.
One plan suggested is that officers on the
retired list shall fill all vacancies in field,
stan and line and that companies be re-
cruited to the minimum, anmely, nifty, and
when the Officers return from the war they
be commissioned anew, return to their
commands and be as they were before the
enlistment.
within. the last ten days there have been
received about 400 personal applications
from citisens from all parts of the state
who desire to join the guard on reorgani-
xation. Others offer to reorganize COM
p9nies.
During the week orders will be issued to
what remains Of the guard to perform es'
cort duty on Memorial day.
Taking advantage of the lessons that
have been taught by the recent mastering
in OF the members of the guard into the
service Of the United States, 1t Is proba-
bic that in future all applicants for admis-
sion into the guard will have to undergo
a physical examination similar to that
which the guardsmen were subjected to
lust before the muster. This will be foI
the purpose Of having men in case OF
second call for volunteers who will come
up to the standard required by the United
States army regulations.
That the signal corps of the Second brig
ade has not been called into service has
greatly disheartened many Of the mem
bers. who, in view Of the fact that the ex-
cellence Of their ability to perform the dp.
ties OF signal men had been commented
upon by OFFICERS Of the regular army IN oni'
cial reports to the. war department, were
under the impression that competent mer
would be taken for service that requires
a long time and much practice to become
familiar with.
