URGES COMPANY OF
65 INSTEAD OF 100

Columbia, Aug. 21.-In telegram
to the Secretary Of War, the adj
jutant generals office today urged
that the minimum strength >of the
companies of the National Guard be
made sixty-five instead of one hun
drei men, and the temporary recog-
milton of the officers who organized
the companies.
National Guard officers and the mil
itary departments Of the various
States are requesting that the reor-
ganization of the National Guard be
placed on basis which will make it
such an organization as was main
tanned befoer the war. National
Guard officers declare that the present
requirements of minimum Of one
hundred men will make it almost i'm
possible to reorganize National Guard
companies, particularly in the sparse
ly settled sections of the South, where
protection is necessary.
The Governors conference meeting
, at Salt Lake City, Utah, has the ques-
| IlOfl VI CIc NdIlUllal HCttTu ullUcE COll-
! sideration; and it is Understood that
it will recommend that the companies
have a minimum strength of sixty-fve
men.
"In the absence Of Governor Cooper,
said the telegram, "who is upon at
tendance upon the meeting of Govern
ors at Salt Lake City, and who is thor
oughly in sympathy with the provi-
sions of this telegram, urgently re-
quest regulations providing for a min
imum registered strength of sixty-fve
for National Guard companies. This
State also requests temporary recog-
milton of officers who organized these
companies, subject to later provisions,
section rs, act June 5, 1916. The re-
construction period after the war de-
mands the organization of National
Guard companies for protection, which
cannot be done in small towns with
100 enlisted minimum strength. APP
peal to you to provide means for this
protection. Governors conference has
! this subject under discussion.
