explained that it would reduce to

The value TO the country during
the war OF the national guardsmen
cannot be overestimated, he said.
AT the time men were needed most
the national guard provided a force
of $4,000 men and 12.123 officers.
They have done magnificent work,
comparing favorably with the forces
of any other nation. The efficiency
of the officers was proven by the
fact that OF the entire number only
352 were discharged for ineficiency.
THE militia bureau strongly adj
vocates UNIVERSAL military training
but believes it should be carried out
in connection with the national
guard"
The act Of June $. 1916. provided
for 16 divisions OF a total strength
of 400,S64 men. Gen. Heavey said.
but because of the war. the terms of
the act were not carried out.
