 The present health campaign work and the city should set an 
 of General Bliss concerning physical conditions is this disquieting para graph: ''I find in many organizations that the enlisted personnel are being bombarded with letters from home begging them to return and to take advantage of any opportunity offered to get out of the service. Thus far the men themselves seem to pay lit tie attention to this. I think that what may prove to be a principal cause of unrest among certain classes of the enlisted personnel is the in formation which commanding officers tell me is coming from their homes to the effect that employers who prom ised to continue pay or part pay and also hold their positions for employees in the ranks are now saying that as there is to be no war their promises as to those matters are no longer good"
 This may seem to be comparative ly small matter but the least feeling of unrest lowers the morale of the camp and to that extent it is directly harmful.
 Evidences are cropping out in many quarters-in Congress, in campaign committees and in the press-that the republicans are ready to make politi- cal capital of any feeling of discon- tent among the militia. Republicans are encouraging everything like mil itary disaffectien and unless they are watched closely they will start cunning schemes to foment mutinous tendencies.
 It may seem hard to some of the guardsmen that they are required to patrol the border when the probabili- tv of war with Mexico has disap- peared. But large military force on the frontier accounts more than any thing else for the changed attitude of the Carranza de facto government.
 The militia will not be kept on the border longer than they are needed there; but for precautionary purposes they are needed today and will be possibly for several months to come, or until such time as the regular army can be recruited up to its peace maximum. In the meantime watch the men in charge of MT. Hughes campaign.
