HOW TO MEET REQUIREMENTS

therefore, seem impracticablc in the
last degree to consider that the prob
lem can he solved by providing for Il

this solution.

from every standpoint we can dismiss

Turning to the National Guard, Mr..
Garrison said:
"At the present time this force con-
sists of approximately 10000 men and
