TO ADJuTANT GEN.
National Guard Units Subject to Gall
Into Federal Service Under New Law

In preparation for possible call to
the colors from the president, instruc.
tions were Saturday received by Ad-
jutant General G. s. Moody from the
militia bureau of the war department,
governing the Second Idaho regiment.
The instructions are but precautionary,
paving the way for possible mobiliza-
ton, and are not construed as meaning
that such a call is to be issued imme-
diately. In the event, however, of war
with Germany, the war department will
probably follow up the instructions with
specific orders to carry them out to the
letter.
The Second Idaho, under the terms
of the new army law, is subject to call
for actual service at any time. 1t was
under the provisions of this bill that
it was sent to the Mexican border last
summer and it will be under the au-
thority contained in the same act, that
the instructions issued to adiutant
generals governing troop mobilization
in Idaho, will be followed out if the
president deems the time has arrived for
some action.
The instructions to Adjutant General
Moody specifically state that no indi-
vidual will be accepted for service who
has not taken the oath prescribed by
section 20 of the act of congress, June
3, 1916, while those who, ct the date of
the call, are members of the organized
militia, and who take the prescribed
oath, will be accepted and given proper
credit for the time served on their ex-
listing enlistment contract in the militia.
The instructions in detail follow:
From: The Chief, Militia Bureau.
ITO: The Adjutant General of Idaho.
Subject: National Guard units sub.
iect to call into the federal service.
