Washington. June 9.-Within the
next month Iowa will be called upon
to raise approximately $4,000 troops
for the three war armies. These
forces will be divided as follows:
$4,000 for the national army to be

1.349 to bring the Iowa National
Guard up to war strength.
1885 TO complete Iowa's quota of the
81. 900 needed to bring the regular army
to war str.ngth.
The first figure Of 5000 given as
Towa's quota for the draft army is an
estimate, but il is an estimate for which
army staff officers stand sponsor, and
one based on the regular army war
quota now being raised.
Iowa was given a quota OF 4,4is as
its portion of the total quota Of lS5's@S
needed on April ! last 10 bring the
regular army TO war strength or vs.

nroximately three and a half times the
$4,000 odd on which lire first quota
was formed. BY multiplying Iowa
present quota of 4,44S by three and
halt. army staff officers explain, the
total OF $4,000 odd should approximate

Of Iowa's quota of 4.44S in the cam
paign to bring the regular army to war
strength. is taken from a report June
5. showing that Iowa had raised 3,ooo'
The present strength of the Iowa
National Guard is more than double

port of the militia bureau July last
