Unless the Norfolk Southern Rail
way makes the desired transportation
arrangements to reach the State rifle
range and camp site near Virginia
Beach it is quite likely no cncamp-
ment or rifle practice will ever be held
there. Unless that road does some
thing quickly. it is certain that no
camp can he placed there in 1918. and

since on alternate ycSrs there arc

Pennsylvania.
While u large sum has been spent,
mainly United States funds. in equip
ping the grounds FOR rifle practice, in
grading and draining. the state of Viz
Sinia is not required TO use the prop
erty at all unless the railroad docs It's

rather than comply with the desires OF
tho road. The matter is in allegiance,
awaiting some sort of decision.
