MUST FILL
GUARD BY
CONSCR|PT|ON
(By United Press.)

INDIANAPOLIS. IND, July with
the mobilization of the Indiana Ma
tional Guard but one month distant. Sit
was practically certain today that it
would be necessary to fill the ranks OF
many of the companies through con-
scription. Although campaigns for new
members have been waged strenuously
in every city in the state possessing a
militia company. the majority of the
guard units are still considerably below
war strength.
No orders have been received regard
ing the disposition of the companies
which are now on guard duty in vari-
Gus sections of the state, protecting
bridges and buildings, when the mobili-
zation of the troops is called. 1t is the
general impression. however. that those
companies now on guard duty will be
relieved by home guards and other To-
cal organizations so that the soldiers
may be released for training for for
eign service.
Under the present plans. the guards
will be mobilized in armories and home
stations where they will remain for a
few days They will be sent south as
soon as transportation is provided TO a
indications are that the camp for Indi-
ana troops will be located at Admission,
Ala 1t is probable that before leaving
for the south. a central mobilization will
take place at Ft. Benjamin Harrison.

MICHIGAN CITY, IND, July g.
Eighteen persons were injured yester-
day afternoon when an interurban car

to this city on the Chicago-South Bend
line turned on its side. The injured
were those on the grounded side of the
car with other passengers packed on top
of them. They were brought to the hos

On behalf Of the war department and
this office l desire to thank you and
assure you that we are very grateful
and appreciate the magnificent work
and cooperation of the citizens of
Hammond during the past week. or
rather that period known as Recruit
ing Week
Hammond is most loyal city. full
of ed-blooded. fighting Americans. pat
riotic to the core. She has furnished
more men for the regular army than
any other city in this district, in fact,
doubt seriously il there is a cit yin
the United States. with her population
that can boast of sending the same
number of volunteers to the army as
has this noble city of Hammond.
I desire to thank you and members
of your staff for the most loyal sup
port given us by your paper and the
one thing that makes us the more
grateful is that the service of this pa
per was given voluntarily and freely.
without solicitation from this office
1 desire to extend our thanks to Mr.
P. A. Parry. the Honorable V. S Reiter,
Mr.. Jesse Wilson, Mr.. p. w. Meyn and
all other good people who have mater
tally assisted,us in this great cause.
I desire to take this opportunity In
publicly expressing my thanks and ap-
probation for the manner in which
Attorney Boone and your honorable
mayor have worked for our cause, not
only recently, but from the very day
that war was declared.
Sergeant Welch. who is a most ex-
cellen soldier. has kept me Informed
as to the doings of Hammond people.
I can only say that wish every other
city in the United States had the
same kind of population. Fir if they
did, then we would have no trouble in
filling the regular army to its full war
strength with volunteers.
We have a great work before US. it
has only commenced. Young men can
still enter the service through volun-
tarv enlistment and they can do so
up to the very moment that their
names are drafted and after that the
Young men who were not drafted at
the first call. will still have the oppor-
tunity of volunteering their services.
Again thanking you for your court
esy and cooperation and requesting
that you publish this letter. am,
Very respectfully,
