WILL GET NO FUNDS
Kansas State Guard Troops May Soon
Be DiSbanded,

That the Kansas state guard may
be discontinued now that the war is
over is indicated by federal statute
providing that, while a state may
maintain troops during war time for
defense, none other than the national
guard provided for in the defense act
may be maintained in times of peace.
A decision handed down by the
judge advocate general provides that
the federal government cannot sell
arms or equipment to state militia
even in times of war, altho the state
legislature would have the authority
to make an appropriation for this pur-
pose and purchase the equipment
from other sources. The federal stat
ute in question, however, makes it inn
probable that any lobbying will be
done for this purpose during the COM
ing legislature, owing to the fact that
the country is not now at war.
It is also improbable, it is thought,
that any appropriation will be made
to pay the men, of whom there are
some 10000 in Kansas. for their serv-
ices during the war time, as it would
amount to approximately $4,000 for
a single year.

OCEAN TRAVEL AGAIN
Passenger Traffic Will Be Taken Up
Early in the Summer.


New York. Nov. 13.-Ocean pas
cenger traffic to Europe will be re-
sumed by early summer. New York
steamship agents declared here today.
The need of the European popula-
ton for food, raw materials for in
dustry and reconstruction will absorb
all tonnage for some time, it was
stated. There is no immediate pros
pect of the government control of
shipping being removed.
Although some tourist traffic may
be under way in several months, an
official of a large American line,
stated that there was no chance of it
assuming pre-war proportions. He
said it was not merely a question of
providing steamship accommodations
at this end, but return journeys would
have to be considered, as all accom-
modations from the other side would
be needed for troops.
Plans of the steamship men at the
present time are very uncertain.
They have no assurance that their
liners and other vessels will be re-
stored by the government in the near
future.
Steamship offices here have been
swamped for several days with tele-
grams and inquiries regarding the re-
sumption of ocean travel. Tourist
agents are anxious to start taking
bookings for sightseers abroad. Bust
ness men and relatives of American
soldiers also are clamoring for pas
sage.

The Public Health Service recon-
