many additional units Of National
Guardsmen as can be raised 20 the
proport strength ray be raised. Its
tone is discouraginR, as 1t was forced
bv the demands Of Mr. Caldwell on
Secretary Baker. The letter empha-
sizes again and again that further m
crease in the number Of National Guard
units rs not called for.
Following is an extract from the or
der:
Under the provisions Of The act Of
Congress approved June 3. 1916, Fed
cral recognition will be extended 10
National Guard units IN the various
states as set forth in the accompany
ing table. This table provides Tor or
CARNATIONS 20 the extent OF 800 men,
including the Naval Militia, per Sen
ator and Representative in Congress.
This recognition will be extended TO
these units with view toward bringing
the members thereof into Federal ser
vice when they shall have been suf'i-
GENTLY equipped TO warrant such ser
vice.
ut must be clearly understood that
the states are not called upon by the
War Department TO organize these new
units The expense of recruiting and
organizing the new units and proyid-
ing them with armory facilities will be
heavy burden for some states.
an the present emergency the War
Department does not desire TO press
the undertaking Of these burdens upon
the states. and believes that troops can
be organized as purely Federal forces
more expeditiously and with greater
efficiency in accordance with the plan
proposed by the President
Another point that must be clearly
understood is this: Considerable time
must elapse between the recognition
of new unit and its equipment for
entry into Federal service. The men
composing these new units cannot be
clothed. rationed and sheltered at Fed
eral expense until they enter the Fed
eral service Suitable armories and
facilities for the care of equipment
