VIGOROUS PROTEST OVER
BREAKING UP REGIMENT
REPORT THAT DELAWARE BOYS
ARE NOW BEING SCATTERED

Governor Townsend Takes the Matter
up Immediately With Secretary
Baker-Thought it Been Settled
The first big gap in the First Della
ware Infantry, since its arrival at
Camp Mcclellan, Admission, Ala, on
Sunday from New Castle, was made
Monday when the Machine Gun Co.,
with its 70 men, was transferred to
the Machine Gun Battalion. Transfers
of 49 men were also made from Com
panies K. L and M to the same bat
talon. Captain David M. Salter and
Lieutenants Turner, Townsend, Val
liant, Davis and Davidson go over with
the Machine Gun Co. The remaining
men are to 60 as battalion to the
newly-organized regiments. to the
Field Artillery, the Aerial Squadron
and the Depot Brigade. The fate of
many of the Delaware officers hangs
in the balance. Governor Townsend
on receiving word that the Delaware
Regiment, upon its arrival at Camp
Mcclellan, was being disorganized,
was taken by surprise, as he had
assurance that the regiment would be
allowed to remain as a unit. He
therefore sent the following telegram
to Secretary of War Baker, with
whom he had interview several weeks
ago in Washington, in reference to
the matter. 'When l went to Wash
ington and asked for recognition of
the regiment from Delaware, you
gave assurance that it would be re-
cognized and kept as a unit. Upon
that assurance. l appealed to the
citizenship of the State with results
highly gratifying. In every move
ment in this war, Delaware had taken
her usual historic position-first.
The Federal government has the sup
port of this commonwealth. While
not large in territory or population,
her citizens have done their part and
more. In point of population we
have furnished more than our quota.
If there were more than one regiment
in the State, there would probably be
no question of partial disorganization.
Expressing the strong opinion of hel
citizens, l ask that the Delaware
Regiment be kept intact. Surely
Delaware's history and her recent
record, merits more than passing at
tention. Reports from Admission to-
day say that disorganization ha'
begun. present the demand of the
citizenship of this State for your con-
sideration-that the regiment from
the first State in the Union, b.
maintained. -
