LOCAL GUARD
PLANS DEPEND
ON BISMARCK
Announcement of Govern
n1erlt Policy is Cause Of
Much Speculation.

With the announcement that North
Dakota will be called upon to furnish
one National Guard regiment under
the plan worked out by the federal
government, the question Of what
quota of this force will be assigned to
Grand Forks comes to the front.
: In the old organization Of the First
North Dakota, two companies, the
Machine Gun Co. and Co. M. were To-
Gated in this city.
: It Is. possible, however, hat there
may be a number Of changes when
the guard is reorganized, especially as
some of the towns which furnished
contingents in the Second North Da-
kota formed at the outbreak of the
war, ma desire to keep representa-
ton In the new units.
Organization Changes.
The plan as announced from WASH
inEton provided for skeleton COM
panies on a peace basis of IS men
Is to be that provided for in the tables
of organization in use during the
great war, this would give barely
more than enough non-commissioned
officers for a company at war
strength.
j Important changes are also made in
the organization of certain of the
units, notably the headquarters COM
pany, which under the new table be-
comes the largest company unit IN
the regiment.
. The question of officers is also an
interesting one. Under the old or
g~anization, each company had n
captain, one first lieutenant. and n
second lieutenant. Under the new
tables. however, a company includes
n captain, three first li~eutenants,
and two second lieutenants.
No action can be taken in the mat
ter. however. until word is received
from the adjutant general at Bis
rnarck regarding the stAps that are to
be taken to comply with the orders of
the yavern mem in the matter.
