NATIONAL GUARD BILLS
EXPLAINED BY GEN. SIMMS
Scope Of the Legislation Before Con-
gress Designed for Reorganization
Of District Forces.

The intent of the bills now in the
Senate and the House of Representa-
tives proposing reorganization of the
Columbia Is explained in a memo
randum sent out by Brig. Gen. Richard
D. Simms. in command of the guard.
The memorandum says the special
class desired to be enlisted are able
bodied business and professional men
and men in the various government
departments and business houses who.
under the present military laws. on
account Of age or important business
ties or family dependents. are not liable
to perform important service, but who
are capable or DESTROYS of doing any
local military service for which they
may be needed. Many who would be
eligible under the terms of the pro-
posed bill are men Of previous military
experience, the memorandum states.
Men OF this proposed class are to be
enlisted for the period of the war only
1t is to be clearly understood, says
the memorandum, that the bills now in
Congress provide that enlistments of
the character mentioned can in no way
relieve men from liability for any
service in the United States military
or naval forces to which they would
otherwise be subjected. Men of the
class wanted would constitute a per-
manent nucleus for the guard for the
period of the war. and, together with
the selective. draft men who enter it
for their preliminary training, would
give to the District a splendid body Of
troops. says the letter.
Provisional companies are now being
formed and more than 500 men are
ready for enrolment, to which number
1t is expected to add 100 recruits. All
eligible men are urged to enroll for
this service.
