RIFLE REGIMENT
ORGANIZED IN
PITTSBURG .
Services of the Organization
Are Offered to President
by Colonel Keenan,.

PITTSBURG, March 1S.-The first
regiment Of American Riaemen has
been organized in this city. The
! movement Is forwarded by tho Young
Mems Business Clubs of which there
Ii one In most of the large cities or
the country and the sole object is to
acquaint laymen with the handling
Of military rifle. The movement il
said to have originated In Cleveland
and the idea was disseminated from
there. but the PIttshurE regiment is
the first to complete organization.
Col. T. J. Keenan,, Of this city. took
up the matter and presented 1t to the
Young Mems Business Clubs. with the
result that these bodies pledged sup
port to 1t throughout the country. In
this city almost 500 men have en-
rolled for the movement. 1t Is not
to be uniformed or drilled body, ae-
cording to the promoters. All expense
will be borne by the individuals, and
the time required for qualification as
a member of the organization Is not
more than one hour week on rifle
range that is ut the disposal of the
organization.
Among the members of the local
body are a number OF National
Guardsmen, who have been sharp
shooters and first class mArksmen Tor
years, and several retired army ON
GERS who have offered their services
in coaching and instruction with the
military rifle.
It Is planned to have camp ut the
range, which Is few miles from the
city, which will be established
throughout the summer. At this camp
members may go and come as they
desire, being under no rigid discipline
beyond being required TO qualify as
an expert marksman.
Employers of men DESTROYS Of par
ticipating in this movement have e&-
pressed a willingness to give en-
ployes an opportunity to take advan-
tage of the rife range, and offers OF
assistance from regular service men
have been abundant.
Col. keenan, expresses the opinion
that one million men would be par
ticipating in this training during the
summer, laying a foundation Tor a
trained citizen soldiery, against times
of need.
The pfttsburg regiment has been
offered to President Wilson In this
telegram which Col. Keenan, sent to
Washington:
"I am authorized to offer you. In
case of national need. the services OF
the first battalion of the first regI-
ment OF American Rifiemen. ALI tho
members of the organization are OF
military age, and have pledged them
selves to qualify at once and at their
own expense. MS marksmen with the
regulation rife Of the United States
army. If a million Americans will so
qualify during the next few months
your plea for national preparedness
will, supplementlng congressional ac-
ton, have met with a practical popu-
lar response that will help to insure
our country against enforced partlci-
nation either in the present OF in any
future war"
