GEN. CROWDER RULES
ON GUARDSMEN SERVICE
Says They Are Available for Cam.
paign in Mexico When Drafted
Into Federal Ranks.

The National Guard when drafted
into the federal service. as provided in
section Ill. act approved June 3, 1916,
Is available for an offensive campaign
in Mexico. That is the opinion of Judge
Advocate General Crowder Of the War
Department officially submitted to the
chief of the War College division of the
general staff
1t depends upon Congress whether
the President could draft the existing
units of the organized militia into the
service or whether he could incorporate
them into the volunteers.
Judge Advocate General Crowder
points out that the authorization of
Congress for the use of land forces
for any purpose requiring the use Of
troops in excess Of those Of the regular
army is required by the national de-
fense act before the President can draft
the necessary extra troops: also the
volunteer army act empowers the Presi-
dent to raise volunteer forces only after
the Congress has SO authorized him.
Should Congress authorize draft of
the National Guard. the President is
not required to draft the National Guard
as a whole. but may draft part
thereof in his discretion. He could
utilize the remainder of the National
Guard as a part of a volunteer army.
but as enlistment in the volunteer army
is voluntary matter. the President
could not compel National Guard or
ganizations to enter 1t.

PARIS, July 27.-On the occasion of

phans by the war in France.

ton which this particular aid took was
one that strongly appealed to him. He
hoped that such relationship thus es-
ia ablished between the children of the
two countries. in many cases evidenced
by the exchange Of personal letters.
would bring about closer ties of fra
ternity.
Ambassador Sharp assured President
Poincare that he had constant evil
dence of the appreciation the French
people had shown for the aid which
the Americans have extended. Upward
Of a million and a half francs already
had been sent from the United States

and who fails to avail Of the privilege
of applying for his discharge may
be summarily dismissed from the army
II he is unwilling to set aside some
Of his pay for the care of those de-
pendent upon him. This is the sub
stance of an order just issued by the

Judge Advocate General Crowder also
rules that the law providing for the
discharge of q soldier because OF the
death or disability Of a member OF
his family. throwing the burden OF
breadwinning upon him, does not ap-
ply to national guardsmen or organized
militia. The law provides an alterna-

STAUNTON, Va, July z6.-H. H. Wyatt,
mayor Of staunton. extended the hospital
ity Of Staunton to the newspaper men
and their wives at the opening session OF
the Virginia Press Association yesterday.
Robert s. Barrett Of the Alexandra Ga
zette, president of the Virginia Press As
sociation. responded. Mr.. Barrett review
ed events Of interest in Virginia since the
meeting of the association at Newport
News last year and referred to the In
creased cost Of newspaper publication.
"The cost Of paper" Mr.. Barrett said.
has been the greatest item to be con-
sidered by the newspaper publisher. In
the last thirty days 1 have had inter-
views with the principal paper manu-
facturers of the country and l bring to
you some little encouraging news.
"a year ago the Virginia publisher
paid from to 2k cents per pound Tor
make a contract and the price ranges
from to cents for immediate deltv-
cry"
Mr.. Barrett told Of the reasons for
this advance and said: Every day the
production of the mills Is being in
creased, mills are working to their ca
pacity and new mills are being con-
structed. Within few months the sit
uation will improve. and when the
European war is over prices will ap-
proach normal. While I do not think
we will ever have paper as cheap as we
once had 1t, do believe that a price OF
s2.25 a hundred pounds will again pre-
vail"
Mr.. Barrett detailed other increased
items of cost to the newspaper publish
er and urged the putting of the news
paper plants on an efficiency basis, with
the use of 1abor-saving devices to cut
cost Of production. AS Mr.. Barrett is
the representative Of the Department
Of Commerce in investigating the cost
of paper, his information is first hand
and his address was received with
marked attention.

Whether the American mule is a mu-

before the Senate finance committee,

Der of the committee, visiting at the

tion of munitions of war, is giving all

I'VE are bothered to know what Is a
munition of war; said the senator.
There Is a strong. view in some d.
rections that an American mule is just
as much munition as copper"
The chances, however. are that the
mule and his faster consort, the motor.
will escape taxation as munitions of
war, although both Of them have been
immense factors in the European
