TO HOLD GUARD UNITS
General Martin Does Not Expect
Congress To Decrease Them.

National guard organizations total
ing 5000 men will be the ultimate
basis of reorganization, according to
a prediction by Charles I. Martin, ad
jutant general. He believes congress
will leave the states guard strength
at the figure which was shown when
the troops were mustered into federal
service in 1917.
A small national army for police
protection is the extent to which the
nation should go in establishing a
standing army. General Martin be-
lieves He also hopes for congress
sional enactment which will provide
for training of citizen-soldiers who
will secure training thru the national
guard organizations.
II do not believe the needs are so
much to train the men who have seen
service as TO train the young men who
are coming on" General Martin said,
in expressing his view of the nations
future military policy.

Gates of the measure confident it
would be adopted before adjournment
the equal suffrage constitutional

an invasion of states rights.
Anti-suffragists today hinted that a
coalition of southern and New Eng

Thirty-Six States Must Ratify.

thirty-six states before it is part OF

Washington Scouts Report. r.
Washington, June 4.-No informa-
ton regarding the reported landing of
American naval forces in Costa Rica
has reached either the navy or state
departments and Secretary Daniels
said he doubted any landing had been
made. If any men were sent ashore
they were sailors as the only marine
detachment in the vicinity is the lega-
ton guard in Nicaragua and officials
said it could not be moved without
specific authority from Washington.
The revolution in Costa Rica has
been going on for the past two months
but has been attracting considerable
attention in Central American coun-
tries for the past four weeks.
Forces, said to have been recruited
from political exiles. formed bands
along the Nicaraguan frontier near
Lake Nicaragua and advanced south
ward, clashing on several occasions
with forces commanded by Jonquln
Tinoco, Costa Rican minister of war.
The fighting has been restricted al
most entirely to the mountainous
country near the NicaTaguan border
altho recently skirmishes further
south have been reported. The situa-
| tion is quite obscure. owing to the
fact that reports from Costa Rica
have been of a conflicting nature.
Puntarenas is a port on the Pacific
coast of Costa Rica and is the Pacific
terminus of the railroad extending
across Costa Rica to Port Limon
which is the most important harbol
| on the Atlantic side of the country.
