SECOND GROUP WILL
Be CALLED TOMORROW
Twenty States VIII Be Told
to Send National Guards
men to Camps

Washington, July 24.--The United
States tomorrow will call out its second
group of national guardsmen for inten-
siye training. Twenty states, including
New England, fringe of the old south,
part of the northwest and others will
respond. The list reads:
Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont,
Massachusetts,, Rhode Island, Connecti-
cut, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland,
District of Columbia, Virginia, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, IL
linois, Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Wash
ington and Oregon.
The guards will be held at home arm
ories or state concentration camps until
such time as the southern tented camps
are ready. AS there still is much con-
struction work, building wooden kitch-
ems, mess halls and the like-some of
the troops at least will not head south
for a month.
None of the first called guardsmen
have yet moved, though the war depart
ment said today that movement prob
ably would start next week, as the first
of the camps are rapidly nearing COM
pletion.
Sufficient supplies will be ready for
men by the time they reach camp.
The question Of furnishing higher Of
ficers to the national guard is still in
abeyanee Sixteen major generals and
so brigadier generals are needed and
most Of these will be drawn from the
present organization, though in a few
isolated cases it is likely commanding
officers may be forced out.
The department has decreed that, as
a general rule, it will not assign any
regular army officer to position in
the guard lower than brigadier. There
will be few such plums outside the
guard ranks, however.
