MILITIA s FRIENDS
| HOPEFUL OF AID
Legislation increasing Federal APP
|. preparation for National Guard
/ May Pass ID Congress.
BY VI. w. Jsrmana.

&. Washington, April l8.-Friends Of
the national guard in congress are now
very. hopeful that legislation increasing
the annual federal appropriation, and
otherwise changing the existing law; TO
increase the efficiency OF the militia
and promote rife practice, will become
law at this session. The bill framed
at the meeting Of the national guard as
been reported to the senate by Mr..
HemenWay.
n his report on the bill Mr.. Hemen-
way explains that it broadens the scope
of the present militia law, as we'll as In
creasing the annual appropriation from
$1,000,0 900 to $2,000,000, and is the COM
bined experience and Judgment Of mill
tary officers Of the states and of the
United States.
ton Under tas eo9s &. gss ResgRsa
to the state Of Minnesota in aid of it's
militia is $21,942.47; to North Dakota
and South Dakota, $7,979 each. With
the increased appropriation these allot-
ments will be doubled.
Appropriations Now Too sman.
The state and national appropriations
are sadly disproportionate, according to
Mr.. sHemenway' showing. The total
organized strength Of the militia at this
time is about $4,000 officers and men.
The combined state and national appro-
priations are about $40 per man, per
annum, Of which the federal govern
ment contributes only So per man. I'm
der the proposed law the Federal appro-
priation will still be less than half that
of the states. ~ $500.
Under, the provision In the bill pro-
viding for tho promotions of rifle prac-
tice, all OF a state's allotment can be
expended for construction Of a rife
| range, something forbidden by the law
as it now stands. Definite information
is at hand to show that at least thirty
states will construct rife ranges, with
probability that ultimately all the
states will have them.
Guard Officers Help Bill. g.
National guard officers in all the
states have written the committees Of
| the house and senate, as well as individ-
ual members Of the respective houses.
Major Lambert, president Of the Min
nesota National Guard association, says,
in letter which is included in the re-
port, that t'the state Of Minnesota is
doing it's full share in supporting and
training volunteer troops, largely for
| the benefit Of the United States govern
ment, and the companies thruout the
state, as well as the citizens, feel that
the government should shoulder, at least
to the extent Of this appropriation, 8
small portion Of the cost OF training
and equipping the organized militia oil
the United States, which is now also a
| federal force.'

AMEND DRAINAGE BILL
BY w. w. Jermane,

the southwest, urging abandonment OF
the proposition to create separate

age scheme a. part Of the government
reclamation plans by amendment Of the
reclamation act. STEVENSON and Vol

a separate fund for drainage.
