IOWA MEN REPORTING TO CAMP
DODGE TO BE SPECIALLY
ASSIGNED.
THOSE NOW CALLED GO
TO GUARD REGIMENTS
After Ranksy Of First and Second Rosi-
ments Are Recruited to War Strength
All Additional Men viii se Hold in
Reserve to Fin Up Ranks Of Other
Organizations as They Are Depleted,

Des Moines, Sept. 27,--The majority
lof Iowa's selective men who were
called to the colors for duty with the
Eighty eighth division Of the, national
army at Camp Dodge in the third and
fourth increments will go to the two
provisional regiments Of the 163rd de-
pot brigade.
This course, it is believed, will be
pursued as soon as Iowa's two regi-
ments-the 350th infantry and the
339th artillery-have been brought
to war strength by the assignment OF
seleotive men still to report.
The depot brigade is a supply or
ganization in which men are trained
to fill up the ranks Of brigades al
the front. depleted by casualties.
The strength Of the 35Oth infantry
comprising recruits from the southern
counties of Iowa now is 1927 mon. The
war strength of the 339th field artil-
lery comprising men from the three
northern tiers Of counties in the state
is 1,225. The war strength of this regi-
ment is about 1000 men.
With the arrival of recruits called
to the colors with the third increment
it is believed these regiments soon will
be brought to, war strength by the
assignment of additional men.
When this has been done the ma
jority of those recruits remaining will
go to the depot brigade in the regi-
/, ment commanded by Col. Fl. j. Price
Some To Special Work.
Those who are not assigned to the
depot brigade will be the men who
show special qualifications for some
particular branch Of the service. such
as the machine gun battalion, the en-
gineers or the signal corps battalion
These unitsS still are below wal
strength and Will require men OF good
physique or who have had special
training.
1t is estimated that approximately
LOO men are needed to bring the
S50th infantry and the 339th field ar
ti1ery at Camp Dodge to war strength
In this entfthere will be about 5000
selected men from Iowa go into the
depot hrigsdeyfrom the balance of the
selected nfsn~ to report from the state
The depot brigade is a new unit in
the organization of American mil;
tary forces Its principal duty, officers
say. is to train men for all branches
of the service.
sThe brigade as an organization
probably never will be on the battle
front proper altho the men who are
trained in the brigade will be SEM
directly into tie first line trenches as
lwelE as elsewhere.
