RULING NOT APPLIED
TO DISTRICT GUARD
Care of Equipment Subject of
Decision by Secretary
of War.

Present methods used By the National
Guard of the District of Columbia in car
ing for property will not be affected by
the opinion of Secretary of War Stimson,
who has ruled that the United States gov
eminent should not pay any part of the
expense of the care of military equip
ment loaned by the army to the organized
militia of states. territories and the Dis
trict of Columbia.
Guns ammunition. camp equipage field
artillery and equipment of all kinds used
by the National Guard OF the District of
Columbia is cared for at the expense of
the District of Columbia, the amount be-
ing appropriated yearly III the District
appropriation bill, the direct superintend-
ence of the property being mostly under
the direction of Lieut.. w. \. Duval.
Suggestion of Militia Board.
When the national militia board met in
this city several weeks ago one of the
made was that the fed
eral allotments allowed to states by the
War Department should be used in part
for the caring of federal equipment.
This is what the Secretary of War dis
approved of, according to a circular re-
ceived at District militia headquarters
today 1t is shown that while the prop
erty belongs to the United States, the
care of it is vested in the various states
and the responsibility for its care rests
entirely with the various states.
In other words. the War Department
does not believe the United States should
lend a brigade several hundred thousand
dollars worth of property and then be
put 10 the expense of keeping it in con-
ditiOn.

tween the chief of staff's headquarters
at Washington and the West Point Mill
tary Academy. Robert Murdoch, an Off
Ger In the army, who thinks he was not
properly treated during his attendance at
the academy. declares upon his gradua-
ton that he will never set foot upon

Of service he has risen TO the rank of

Office of the chief of staff at the War
Department. Another officer, on his way
to one of the West Point reunions, stops
off at Washington. and finally prevails
upon Murdoch to attend the reunion. His
experience there results in his regenera-

make the scenes realistic that those in
