Some Question as to Whether They
Will Be Members Of Organized State
Militia or Of Federalized National

IN toe. case. Of any mend ers whose

teraay that the question involved Is
whether the artillerymen, when mus
tered our. will automatically become
mem bers OF the organized state militia
again or Will remain, as they are con-
sidered part OF the new federaized
National Guard. -
Reports had been circulated 10 the
effect that when the battery is mus
tered cut, the men wQuld De relieved
Of duty as members of the artillery
organization. Major Whitley explained
that the whole question devulves upon
the Interpretation of the oath, as mem
beers of the federahzed National Guard,
gwen by the artillerymen when in the
mobilization camp in Des Moines.
That oath was then regarded as
binding in making the guardsmen
members of the federalized National
Guard ana mas been SO construed

duty, upon the orders Of the president

Recently new oath has been pre-
pared. adding materially TO the one
taken in the mobilization camps, and
the guardsmen have been asked TO sub
scribe to 1t. Some of them have re-
fused and 1t Is possible that the gov

have the men take the new obligation.
Before taking the oath at the mobili-
zation camps, the guardsmen were
members of the organized state militia,
the oath changing their status to MEM
bers or the feGeraiized National Guar l..
The question now under discussion IS
whether the government will regard

to take new oath or will cause their
status to revert to that of members
