FREMONT
is ABANDONED
Forty-first National Guard Division
Will Not Go Into Training
In the California
Camp,

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.l
CAMP FREMONT, MEMO PARK.
Calf, Aug. 23.-Announcement from
Washington that the war department
had abandoned Camp Fremont as the
training camp for the Forty-first ma
tional guard division caused reports
today that the troops of that division
will be sent to France early.
Ostensibly camp construction was
abandoned because county health au-
thorities insisted that a complete
sewer system be installed, but the real
reason is believed to be that the war
department officials believed it useless
to spend $500,O0O to 100000 on a
new camp here when one Of the east
ern camps would be available for the
divisions use soon. It Is reported the
t'orty-tirst division will train at Camp
Greene, Charlotte, N. c.
The 1900 workmen employed on tina
camp were all paid off and dismissed
last night Mayor Rolph of San Fran
cisco and other officials today tele-
graphed the war department urging
that construction work be resumed.
