DISTRICTS MILITIA
TO LOSE FEW MEN
INPHYSICAL TESTS

Maj. Gen. William E. Harvey, COM
mander OF the District national guard,
today said that scarcely any OF the
300 men who will take an examins-
ton for acceptance into the Federal
service July IS will be rejected.
Our medical officers have been
exceptionally strict when examining
the men for enlistment" said General
Harvey. 'They have insisted on the
regular army standards. Hence be-
lieve that but few, il any, will be
turned down on the Federal physical
examination.
This permits US to take practically
every man now in the Federal service
into the Patterson camp July IS. For
a time we thought some of the men
would have to go into camp I'M
uniformed. Through contractors,
about $4,000 worth of clothing has
been ordered. II the contractors hold
to their agreement, and 1 think they
Will, there will. be ample clothing for
all men.
THE Patterson tract camp will be
named Camp Ordway. as are all Dis
trict national guard camps. 1t is
named after Gen. Albert Ordway, the
Arst commanding general of the Dis
trict national guard.
THE cavalry, two companies OF
field artillery, and the field hospital
unit will be the only men in camp.
The idea that the Essex Black Horse
Troop and the Richmond Blues would
be encamped with the District boys
Is erroneous.
"Al infantrymen will be stationed
at Fort Myer. There is not space
enough there for all the guard, and
the Patterson camp was necessitated.
The camp will be ready for occu-
pancy July IS Work is being rushed
on IL.
$50 far as know, we will remain
in camp at Ordway for two weeks, CO.
ing directly to Admission, Ala, for
another course OF training before
going across.
when the call comes, the District
national guard will be ready"

FEDERAL TRADE BOARD
SHORT OF ACCOUNTANTS

Every Government department in
Washington has been called upon by
the President to furnish all account
ants that can be spared to the Federal
trade commission.
The commission is short Of help in
prosecuting price inquiries, and is
finding it difficult to get qualified men
for the work.
In addition TO the national food
probe, the commission is prosecuting
inquiries into the cost Of production
Of iron and steel, coal, and other
war necessities to give the Govern
ment a basis for price fixing.
A number OF accountants have been
"loaned" on this work by the State OF
Indiana.
