CUT ARMY CAMPS
TO HALF number

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 1.-The
war department has decided to reduce
its cantonment camps for the new
army and national guard from thirty
two to sixteen and to place the ma
tional guard under canvas.
The situation is confused, and in
some instances orders have been sent
out for men in charge to suspend op-
erations until the new regiments can
be Strengthened out.
Augusta, Ga, is one OF the canton
ment sites already checked off the
list
In so far as possible, the tent COL
onies will be established in the South,
because of better weather conditions
there.
In general, the reapportionment Of
camp sites throughout the various
army departments must be accom-
plished.
The matter of cost was officially
assigned by Secretary of War Baker
this afternoon as the reason for the
shift in the plans at this late date
The appropriations now under consid-
GRAFTON Of congress calls for S77,00O,-

Possibility that the national guard

harvest OF the selective draft. is seen
by the Washington correspondent Of
the New York Times
This possibility is conceded at local
guard headquarters, though IT is be
lieved guard organizations are ex-
pected where possible to fill to war
strength by recruiting. Hawaii has
a present strength approximating 300
now, however. and is required TO
stretch that number to 1900 to attain
war strength for the present organ
ization.
Hawaii is mentioned especially in
the Times article as having brought
down the total numbers of the guard
this by the discharge OF men with
dependent families, Writing in the
last part of May, the correspondent
says in part:
While there has been no official
announcement, ii is believed that the
selective draft will be applied before
the summer is over to enable the gov
eminent to bring the regular army to
its full war strength of 293,00 men.
and also to complete the expansion o:
the national guard to 100000 men.
Since April there have been 49,
$40 men recruited for the army out
OF a total of 1S3,S9S needed on that
date to bring the army to full war
strength. Approximately 100000 men
are still needed. II has taken nearly
two months to obtain S3,940 men, and
unless recruiting, which has shown q
decline during the last week, takes d
squirt, it may be necessary to resort
to the draft. Latest reports reaching
the militia bureau of the War De.
partment show that recruiting for the
national guard is not holding its own.
During the last ten days "a states re-
ported gains in such recruiting, while

a wireless outfit has been arranged.
Several trials which the inventor
has made have been very satisfactory
to him, and he expects to lay the plans
before a board Of naval experts. Mel.

one OF the first TO make flights in

an airplane which he used in competf-
ton against Charles X. Hamilton, now

and Hawai- reported losses. In two
stateS there have been no changes
The net result OF national guard re,
cruiting in the last ten days is loss
of 500 men, due to discharges.
The chief factor in the loss is the
state OF Ohio, where national guard
regiments not in federal service have
dropped from 651 officers and 10,824
men on May 10 to 440 officers and
6O02 men on May 90 Maryland com,
mands were also brought down In
strength to a total of only "a officers
and 1916 men through a loss of 1000
men. These regiments showed a fall
ing off of so per cent in ten days. Ha,
Waii is another factor in the reduc.
ton OF officers and men.
The last available figures on the
strength OF the national guard in the
federal service showed that on May !
there we're 1884 officers and 6S,566
men. There are about 10000 men in
the guard regiments which have not
yet entered federal service. To bring
the national guard to full war
strength of 1000 men would require
the addition OF more than 100000 re-
cruits. Prospects now are that these
men cannot be obtained without re-
sorting to the draft.
The President has authority to
draft men for the regular army and
national guard under the following
provision of the draft act:
"'Section 2. That the enlisted men
required to raise and maintain the or
ganization of the regular army and to
complete and maintain the organiza-
ton Of the national guard drafted into
the service Of the United States at tho
maximum legal strength, as by this
act provided shall be raised by volun-
tary enlistment, or II and whenever
the President decides that they can.
not effectually be so raised or main
tanned, then by selectiye draft"

ARMY ASKS BIDS
ON AUTO TRUCKS

The new American army will be
supplied with motor trucks as rapidly
as they are needed through the devel-
opment of the government present
plans. Bids have already been asked
on orders of from l to $4,000 trucks Of
| light and heavy types, known official
ly as class A and class B, and present
estimates indicate that they can be
turing plants as fast as they are re-
CURED.
The war department has no pres
ent expectation that it will have to
resort to communicating private ma
chimes in commercial service. The
new army trucks will be of a con-
struction which would handle, in COM
mercial service, loads of approximate
ly 3 to tons, respectively The bids
were opened in Chicago on June 10.
Arrangements are also being made to
secure the necessary drivers.
Specifications for these new trucks
were formulated by the war depart
ment motor transport board, of which
Col. Chauncey B. Baker is the head,
in conjunction with several divisions
Of the standards committee OF the So
ciety of AutomotiVe Engineers, after
an exhaustive study of European and
American field experience.
Adequate for Service in France
Fortunately for the country in the
existing emergency" Col. Baker said.
the prevailing types Of American
commercial trucks have proved fairly
adequate to the field work in France.
where superior roads and short hauls
make conditions much more favor
able for truck operations than condi-
tions in this country.
There are many firms which have
been engaged in making these trucks
for the Allies on a large scale, and
this gives assurance that the American
factories will be capable of turning
out military trucks which will be
thoroughly practical for The forces
which We send abroad, even If their
design is not in every way identical
with the present specifications. 1t
Will be necessary for truck manufaC-
turers to meet the major details Of
these specifications, and a board Of
duly constituted experts will pass on
the designs of the makes which are
offered"

WH00PING COUGH AND
COLDS AMONG RECRUITS

sAcKET HARBoR, N. Y, May 26.
With a record run of bleak and
rainy. weather, Madison Barracks is
not showing up well as a training
camp site. The chilling blast that
bowls in from Lake Ontario has him
dered the students in the outdoor
work that counts so much for real
development Not only has the out
side work suffered, but today when
liberty was granted from noon until
taps" Sunday night, there was
scarcely a man who did not take a
cold away with him. Their resisting
powers slightly undermined by the
typhoid and smallpox incubation, the
students have proved susceptible to
the cold and wet.
1t is not only colds, however, that
are increasing the sick list, for
measles, whooping cough, and chicken
pox, all in mild form, are giving the
hospital forces. extra work to do. In
all, however, there are fewer than
40 patients in the hospital. and none
Is Ill from any serious complaint.

Steps have been taken to utilize the

United States into the war. These sec
retaries were formerly engaged in as

pires. .~...-a. .-.
Chairman Sloane stated that ar.
rangements had been made for zoe
large buildings TO be erected at the
thirty-two military training camps in
this country as rapidly as they are
needed, Immediately around the
camps win be zones, to bar out vice
and alcoholic excess, but the aim will
be TO withdraw the attention OF the
soldier from the rigid restrictions of
. the zones by the organized presenta.
ton OF better means of recreation and
entertainment
Mr.: Sloane said that the big drive
to raise the 100000 necessary to
build, equip and maintain the work
at these camps had met with a crafty.
ing response throughout the country.
From present indications the entire
amount will be In sight by June /.
