who was chief instructor at the joint

In this report, which has not yet
reached the War Department. Col
onoi Garrard calls attention to the
fact that one-third of the men and
two-thirds of the officers In the Dis
trict National Guard are Federal en-
ployes.
In time OF war the demands OF tho
departments In which they are EN-
ployed would be doubled and the men
could be spared less easily then than
at any other time. To use the Ma
tional Guard in time OF war would
cripple the departments. As the guard
Is trained year after year to provide
reserve In war time. Colonel Gar
rard concludes that the instruction
and enlistment of Federal employees
Is working at cross purposes with
the Government itself.
The present membership OF the Dis
trict guard is about 1900. Abou,
