MIehIaan,s Quota

The National Guard of Michigan is
tentatively assigned to the Eleventh
division. It's quota is one infantry
brigade, one regiment of field artillery
and two squadrons Of cavalry. OF
this quota there is now organized,
the infantry complete. OF the regi-
ment of field artillery, which COM
prises six batteries, two are organized,
and of the two squadrons of cavalry,
eight troops, two are organized. The
shortage in Michigan, therefore, is
four batteries of field artillery and
six troops of cavalry. The Federal
government furnishes arms. uniforms
and personal equipment of individual
enlisted men and of organizations, and

National Guard.

The national guard of the states, or
the organized militia, are permanent
military organizations under laws of
the United States and the respective
states. The officers and men of the
national guard devote a portion of
their time only to its service. In
Michigan its officers are such for life,
and its enlisted men for periods of
three years. They are liable to duty
as militia and, under the law of this
state, should the militia be called"
for military service, the national
guard is to be the first to be ordered

and the organization of more units.

Appropriations and Cost.

The National Guard of Michigan
cost the United States government
last year about $4,000. State ap-
preparations to the military fund for
the same period were about S164, 900.
A company costs the state about 81
GOO year, a troop about $500. and
a battery about $4,000. Present state
appropriations for military purposes
are not sufficient to maintain the Ma
tional Guard as outlined above in
everything required, even with the as
sistance Of the United States govern
ment. Also lack of state appropria-
tions prevents the shortage in or
CARNATIONS from being filed, although
there is constant pressure from the
United States TO that end. As certain
equipment and finances for troops
must be acquired from the United
States. no new organizations can be
formed except by the approval OF the
government, and no. old units can
continue to exist without it's approval.

What the Militia is.

The militia is a subdivision of the
population and not a military organ

constituting the militia may lawfully
be required to serve as soldiers, to
repel invasion, suppress jnsurrectlon
or to enforce the law. The federal
army of the United States is a per-
