DISTRICT GUARDSMEN
co TO HARPERS FERRY
Annual Encampment of Capital
Brigade Will Begin
July 20.

The annual encampment of the Ma
tional Guard of the District OF Columbia
will be held at Harper's Ferry, w.
Va, from Monday, July 2S to We'd
nesday, August 6. this year This
announcement was made at District mill
tia headquarters in The Star building to-
day. Brig. Gen. George II. Harries. COM
manding. has given his approval to the
dates and site for the encampment
The length of the outing this year is
five days shorter than the usual period.
This is made necessary, it is declared,
by the lack of funds with which to main
tain them in camp longer
Economy Considered.
While it is stated at militia headquar-
ters that no places other than the one
where the guard encamped last year
were considered, it was further declared
that economy was considered in the Sc
lection of a site also. All of the lumber
which was used during the encampment
last year is still there, and has not been
touched in any way. This alone will
mean a big saving. Even the matter of
railroad fare was taken into considera-
ton. and 1t was decided that HarperS
Ferry could be reached at a more reason
able rate than any other desirable camp
site. In fact, economy was the watch
word at militia headquarters when the
officers had the matter of An encamp-
ment site under consideration.
School for Officers.
While the formal orders have not been
issued, 1t is explained that the first three
days of the encampment will be devoted
to an officers school, The citizen off,
GERS will be taken under the guiding
wing of the regulars, and will be taught
important details which the regular off,
GERS themselves have to know.
The local brigade does not usually wait
for the formal orders to make prepara-
tons for camp. The mere announcement
that the camp will be held and the dates
is sufficient to start them getting ready
for the trip.

CREATED CONSERVATION
Issue Raised by Miners Indictment
Means Much to Unions.

Indictment of President White and
eighteen other members OF the Unit
ed Mine Workers by the federal grand
jury of West Virginia, which charg-
ed conspiracy in restraint of trade,
created CONSERVATION in organized Ia
Dor circles here and there was an in
formal conference of the officers of
international and national organiza-
tons on the situation. AS the labor
leaders here understand it, the con-
viction of the defendants would put
a stop to organizing across state lines
and would practically destroy labor
organizations unless combining them
selves within state lines and thus es-
cape the inhibitions of the Sherman
antitrust law.
They admit that it has serious
phases and that it was to escape Just
such conditions that they urged the
passage of an act exempting them
from prosecution under the antitrust
law.
