plants that red tape will debar them
from the second training camp are
being made by enlisted men of the
regular army. Members of Troop !.
stationed at the post, say their appli-
cations must pass through Governors

since the personnel of the camp must

tions Of civilians are acted upon d.

ing miniature bombs of wood filled
with lead TO the proper weight. The
instruction will be begun in earnest
Monday in connection with trench
operations.
Major NJ J. McDonough. instructor

the course in field Notifications would

says: "a fragment of a general defen-
sSye line will be constructed by mem

Practice will be held in the digging OF
trenches. approach trenches. dugouts,
observation stations, listening posts,

That the Plattsburg camp is consld-
cred n model of its kind is indicated
by the fact that the War Department
to-day ordered Majors VI. B. Stewart
and f. +. Collins, commanders Of tho
New England and New York regiments
respectively and members Of the Gen

Guard Camps in South
Due to Ship Problem

Washington, July l3.-Army officers
to-day asserted that all the National
Guard from Northern states is to be
sent TO training camps in the South,
not because of political pressure from
the Southern members of the Admins
tration, but because it is now feared
the Shipping Board may not be able to
provide the vessels TO take the Guard
to France before cold weather.
II had been planned to send virtually
all of the Guard to France before cold
weather would make cantonments nee
essary. But recently, il is declared,
there has been hot correspondence be-
tween the War Department and the
Shipping Board, and now army officers
fear that they may not be able to find
transports for the Guard and keep sup
plies for our own troops and our ,allies
moving.
Some 1ptimists, however. are conf
dent that means will be found to
move the troops and supplies before
cold weather They are encouraged
by the firm tone Of General Goethals
in his statement tonight.
IL is pointed out that If it should
prove impossible 10 transport the Ma
tional Guard before cold weather
Southern camps will be better and more
economical during the winter. The cost
of fuel will be much less than in the
North.
Some persons. however, persist that
politics was at the bottom of the whole
idea. and that the War Department had
yielded to the pressure Of Southerners.

day as follows:
