IMMATURE ALMANAC.
MAY ORGANIZE ADDITIONAL
VOLUNTEER COMMANDS
Virginia National Gunrd Already Draft
ed Not Up to Total Allotted
to This State.

Virginia has been authorized to or
sanize additional volunteer units. but.
differing from the policy regulating
the organization OF the older units
which have now been drafted into Fed
eral service. it carries with it a num-
Der of restrictions to which the volun-
teer must agree in order to enlist
The Secretary OF War announced yes
ierday this new policy regarding the
organization of additional units of the
National Guard. The moving principle
governing the organization of these
new units is that they may be organ
lied within the quotas prescribed in the
Net OF June 3, 1916. This act allows
the enlistment of-S0O men for eyery
congressional representative of each
state. This gives Virginia the privI-
!eEc of $500 Euardsmen. But since
me war strength OF the companies al
ready organized and drafted into Fed
e"al service amounts to about 1900
Virginia is given the permission of
organizing the difference in this num-
Der which means that 2,lOO State troops
can now be raised.
'ut the restrictions tied to these are
cutie numerous. First, they will not
be equipped until the regular army, the
National Guard already drafted into
Federal service, and the new national
army arc fully equipped. In the mean
time, or for all that is known at the
present time. they may be assigned for
state duty either for short time or
during the entire period OF the war.
Furthermore. all the men who enlist
in these new units are liable to the
draft II they are between the required
draft ages and AZ a result can be draft
cd individually. In addition, If there
are some who are between the draft
ages and others who are not. the whole
company can be mus cred into Federal
service.
Consequently, the man who enlists in
these new volunteer units, because of
! the many requirements imposed has no
definite knowledge of what will ulti-
mately become OF him. Many things
may happen. lie may merely be called
upon 10 play the part of the home
guard. Then he may be called out
with his own company and have the
advantage of chosen company and be
comma nded by his own officers. But il
! liable to the draft. he can be drafted
| into the army al any other man who
! docs not enlist Or he might cplis,
and complete his term of service and
never he armed by the government
