OF Military Affairs Of the War Depart
ment announced last night. This fact
became known following a survey by the
bureau Of every National Guard organi-
zation in the United States.
The Bureau received reports showing a
widespread lack OF officers as well as men.
No State has its full complement OF Of
hcers and men except Utah, which re-
ports hfty-one officers now serving, while
only forty-one are required for full war
strength of that States guard.
The National Guard which had not com.
Into the federal service on NAV 1 con-
tained total OF 4,92s offioers and 1O7. 21o
enlisted men. according to reports from
all states except Indiana, Illinois and
Texas. Those States are still unheard
from. The reports do not include the Ma
donal Guard troops that have been mus
tered into the federal service and are
now on duty.
To bring the total National Guard up TO
fun war strength OF s,sI7 oficers and
s29, s64 men will require an additional re-
cruiting OF approximately 20, 900 men, the
bureau estimated last night.

HOUSE ADOPTS BILLFOR
GOLDRESERVE INCREASE
Amendment Aims to Add $400. 900. 900
to Federal Reserve Act Resources.

Designed to increasee the gold reserve
OF the Federal Reserve banks by about
800. 200 and to remove some of the
barriers which have kept some Federal
and State banks out OF the reserve sys-
tenn, the House late yesterday adopted
amendments to the Federal Reserve act
without a roll call.
The increase in the reserve OF the
banks would, be accomplished by reduc-
ing the statutory reserves of member
banks and requiring the deposit OF those
reserves in the central reserve banks. The
only fight made upon the bill centered
around the question of collection charges
the old practice of making a charge
for collecting a check or draft for an
out-of-town bank.

chances are that fewer lawyers in
the Idaho legislature and more men,
like those who are conducting the
North Dakota legislature, would add
much needed improvements to the
state laws of Idaho. Then, while
speaking out in meeting, might add
a class of men who speak with such
disrespect Of the gentleman who is
holding the highest office in this
state, as did Senator Whitcomb of
Governor Alexander, at that same
Lincoln Day Banquet in Boise, should

course to pursue would be to see
that such a man was numbered among
the missing, when the next term of
