 LOS ANGELES, Feb. 26.-Adjutant General C. w Thomas of the National Tnard of California who completed today an inspection of the companies of the seventh regiment in Los Angeles, is sued tonight d statement explaining the recent difficulties between Colonel w. G. Schreiber and officers of Company j..
 Adjutaut General Thomas explained that he felt it proper to give correct review of the affairs of the local com pany of the National Guard because oi what he termed exaggerated statements made recently by EX- Ma jor Harry Light and other officers of the company who resigned and whose influence brought about the withdrawal of g. members of Inc company
 The statement declares that jor Light Is "both mentally and tempera mentally uutitted to command a bat talion,' and that he took uo advantage while au officer of the National Guard If the opportunity offered by the war department for study and professional Improvement.
 In referrins to the resignations of other officers in Company F. Adju- fant General Thomas said
 Captains Warren |. Holden and Frank E. McReynolds have not. how eyer, been relieved of all their account ability for federal property which. in Holdens ease amounts to $471.54. and in McReynolds case to $20S.9l These officers have yet to show why there is such a large shortage in the federal euipmeut instruted to their care. They were both captains in Lights bat ralon.
 Any statement made by E,X Major Light Holden or other national guard officers that politics has played any part in my action toward them is a deliberate fabrication"
 AdWtant General Thomas comments Colonel Schreiber, commander of the seventh infantry, and states that every inspector ar instructor detailed by the war department for duty in this state "has made favorable and even flatter- ing reports respectine this officers military ability.
 Entire blame for the conditions in Company E is placed on F. Major Light in the statement, which says that hi- military conduct brought upon him the Censure of Colonel Schreiber "Stune by his coloreTs censure," Adiutant General Thomas says, MT. Liehr sought solace for his wounded vanity among his subordinates in his own bat. talion to the prejudice of military dis cipline."
 Conditions in Major Lights battalion grew worse, according to the statement until finally Adiutant General Thoma requested Captain Hanigan, of tn United States army, to make an inves tigauon. Later action was based o Captain Hanigan's recommendations
