TO MAKE STATE MILITIA
GREAT STANDING ARMY
Bill Reported by Committee Woul=.
Place National Guard Under
Government Supervision.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. &c =
The STEVENSON bill, Just reported by
the House militia committee. If en-
acted into law would create a ma
tional army of about 100000 men. 1t
is said that nowhere else in the world
would such a thing be possible.
The bill provides that the national
guard be made subject TO call by
the President for service with the
government forces. without remus-
ter. AT present the state militia can
not be summoned directly to the ma
tional service; they must be remus-
tered and those who don't want to
serve may drop out. The guard. al
most unanimously, IL is said, want TO
be attached directly to the Federal
establishment, thus being made. to
all effect part of the standing army.
When called to Federal service. five
years service must be given without
enlistment. The guard would be
equipped. under this measure, BY the
government.
