Generally speaking the New York Ma
tlonal Guard IL well equipped for the
field. but there is till considerable
equipment lacking. including transport
wagons. good many organizations are
short OF the latter. The problem OF
finding proper storage room for these
wagons IN certain armories is an acute
one. Some regiments have had to store
the wagons outside the armory. hiring
place for storage. In some cases where
the wagons cannot be parked in the drill
hall. they have to be taken apart and
stored in the basement, or elsewhere, and
put together when needed. TO take some
eighteen wagons apart and put them to-
gether is no small Job and the question
is already being raised as to whether an
additional armory employe who IS a
wagon mechanic should not be employed
TO assist. The wagons, II is pointed out
frequently, need the attention of me-
Chanlc.
