GOVERNORS WRONG
ON VOLUNTEER BILL
Law Will Enhance Importance of
Militia, Instead of De-
stroying IT.


Washington. April 1.-THE President
has received protests from several Gov
ernors. notably Governor Colquitt OF
Texas, against the volunteer army bill,
which was an eleventh-hour piece OF leg
islatior passed by the Senate after de-
lay OF f.rr months after the bill passed
the House No attention Will be paid 70
these protests. because they are founded
on a misconceptlon OF the purposes and
effect OF the measure.
Governor Colquitt's protest is based on
the assumption that there Will be no
need Of calling on states at this time for
troops unless Mexico makes declara ton
OF war" and he understands further that
the bill, when approved. will have the
effect % destroying the national guard.
Representative Hay. chairman OF the
House Military Committee and author Of
the BILL said to-day:
This new legislation replaces the &C.
fective and inadequate law which was
bound 10 cause confusion and delay IN
the raising Of a volunteer force IN time
Of war or when war was imminent. II
does not destroy the national guard. on
the contrary, II enhances the usefulness
of the organized militia. 1t makes II pos
sihle 20 use the militia organizations in
the volunteer force for service beyond the
borders OF our country.
without the Jaw the national guard or
state troops are not available for such
service They may be used. in the event
OF war with Mexico. for duty in Texas
and along the Mexican border on the
United States side. but they may not be
sent into Mexico except in so far as the
organized militia Is converted into volun-
teers on the call Of the President.
ut IS OF great importance that the
President shall have the power 10 select
the officers for a volunteer army Pre-
sumably. he would retain the officers OF
any militia organization transferred 70
the volunteer force. That is common
sense. The law has the effect OF protect
Ing a volunteer force from merely politi-
cal appointments. and 10 that precaution-
arv phase OF the situation there can be
no objection. The bill has been carefully
drawn with n view 70 obtaining the best
possible result. and the experts agree
that II IS beneficial measure. with every
consideration for efficiency and with
proper regard for the fitness OF indi-
viduals who viii command men and who
must supervise their welfare, and so pre-
serve their fighting powers
The protests against the approval OF
the bill are obviously founded upon
rnisconception OF what II aims 20 DO, and,
OF course. there is no necessity for more
than informing those who protest as TO
the real situation"

New Counties Seem Assured.

Among other pending legislative
questions which are at the front and
awaiting settlement is whether the
new county of Stone is to be, or wheth-
er the people of the northern half of
Harrison county shall be allowed to
vote on the question of secession, as
proposed in the bill now on the house
calendar There is little apparent op-
position to this bill. Another new coun-
ty for South Mississippi is among the
almost assured achievements of the
present year. This will be Walthall
county, as authorized by chapter $50,
of the acts of 1912, to be formed from
the west part of Marion county and
the eastern part of Pike, with Tyler
town as the seat of government The
election to decide whether the voters
Of the territory are agreeable to the
proposed change is to be held some
day following April 20, 1914, as desig-
mated in the act, and according to ad-
vices the probability is that the Ques-
ton will carry.
