ties in an effort to arrange matters 30
that the militia will be available TOT DUTY
on the call Of the President, or Tor ior-
cign service. Secretary Garrison has pro-
posed that the terms Of the new law shai
not provide that militiamen shall DE car
rled on the payrols Of the federal gov
eminent Instead, Il IS planned 10 nave
