PLAN ORGANIZING
GREAT CITIZENS
NATIONAL GUARD
Proposition Made to Public
Through National SeCur-
ity League.
ABOLISH UNIVERSAL TRAINING

BY Associated Press:
WASHINGTON. Aug. 3O.-Or-
ganization through a new system
Of universal military training of a
great citizen army TO be known as
the national guard corps was pro-
posed today by the National Guard
association in statement made
public through the National Security
league. Thirty divisions Of the ma
tional guard corps, functioning as
a separate corps of the United
States army under the direction of
the secretary of war, is proposed.
Instead of subjecting all 19-year-
old youths TO a three months course
OF intensive military training as pro-
posed by the war department. the
guard association would have mill
tary training as a part of the ma
tional public school system, with
youths entering this course when Il
years old. After this preliminary
training, they would be given two
months training in the field and
then would be graduated into the
guard, where they would serve ac-
lively for two years and nine months
before being placed in the reserve
for three years.
Plan Big Army.
Estimating that 500, 900 youths
would be graduated into the guard
every year, the statement said that
after six years I'VE would have
most effective army OF three mil
lions of men, 100000 in the So
called active service and 1900. 600
in reserve, all of them graduates Of
the training camps"
THE success of this plan" the
statement continued. would be
largely dependent upon a provision
in the law that the force would
have it's own general staff section
Of the greater general staff OF the
army. The professional officers Of
the proposed force would consist of
the general staff section or as it
might be better termed the national
guard corps section Of the general
staff the administrative and train
ing personnel and the permanent Of
ficers assigned to each division"
Organizing Units.
To Immediately establish the ma
tional guard corps and give il a
good start" the association proposed
that the law provide for the reor-
ganization in this corps of the for
mer national guard and national
army divisions which existed during
the great war.

 BUYSPRODUCE
 FROMFARMERS

ANCHORAGE, Feb. Especial to the Daily Times) As might be ex- pected, the best customer of the farmers of the Matanuska valley IS the Alaskan engineering commission. In mess halls at Anchorage and at construction camps along the route of the government railroad the com mission uses, as far as possible, local grown produce. According to the re- port for 1918 of the commissions gen. eral storekeeper, he bought of farm CTS last year 57 tons of potatoes at prices ranging from 1k to 2h cents a pound; 32,S45 pounds of turnips at 1 cent a pound; 8,O63 pounds of cab bage at cents pound; 4,075 pounds of rutabagas at cents pound; 3,S99 pounds of carrots at 3h cents pound; S76 pounds of rhubarb at 6 cents pound, and 4,4O2 heads of let tuce at cents a head.
 On account of dilatory steamship service and high freight rates for water transportation, Matanuska farmers are unable to market their produce to advantage in any of the distant towns along the coast of Alaska. As consequence they are urged by the land and industrial de partment of the Alaskan engineering commission to direct their attention chiefly to dairying and the raising of hogs rather than as at present, to the growing of perishable vegetables.
 The land and industrial department has recommended that congress ap- propriate money for the establishment of stock farms in Alaska, whereby stock might be lent to farmers for breeding purposes or sold to them on long payments. Ensilage methods could be invoked to put up feed at harvest time for use in winter time.

ALASKA OFTEN FEATURED IN
 SCREENPLAYS

The motion picture concerns go in for Alaska screens and Alaskans go in for the movies. This is evident from the number of films that seek to depict the wild frontier life of the Northland and from the number of Alaskans who are now playing in the movies. Several of Rex Beach's best known novels, founded on Alaska life with an Alaska setting, are now pop. ular screens. And everybody knows that Beach is an Alaskan. Wilson Mis-. ner, another picturesque Alaskan, now living m New York, writes an occa- sional scenario with Alaska as the feature, and Jack Hines, an old-time Nomeite, frequently appears in the movies. Al Cody, Jr., has a steady job in the movies down around Los Angeles, and had much to do with the production of "The Flame of the Yu- kon." Miss Alice Niece, former resident of Valdez, is also with a mo- tion picture concern near Los An geles.

SEWARD IS PEEVED AT
 TREATMENT OF OFFICIALS

Robert J. Weir has received ad- vices from William Gerig that the tug Anna w. will be launched from the ways at Anchorage and placed in readiness to tow barge laden with Matanuska coal to Seward. The sup position is that the tug will be launched before spring, the barge loaded and arrive here before next summer. There are several bets up that if the tug is launched within the next few weeks it would not arrive much before next summer, anyway.
 In the meantime the Seward divi- sion of the government railroad is using coal shipped from Seattle in sacks on passenger steamships
 Let us see: The government has coal mines about seventy five miles north of Anchorage, the latter city being 114 miles from Seward, yet it is more expeditions, safer, more eco- nomical and more certain to have coal shipped to Seward for the railroad, ill sacks, by steamer from Seattle, than from the great government coal mines.-Seward Gateway.

Immediate resumption of public construction is urged on state, county and municipal authorities in a tele gram sent by Secretary of War Baker, chairman of the Council of National Defense. and approved by Secretary of Labor Wilson, to all state councils. The telegram follows:
 Unemployment of discharged sol diers, sailors and war workers re- leased from war industries is one of the most important tasks now before the country We strongly urge that in sections where surplus of labor ex- ists all public improvements be ad- vanced in order to absorb labor. We ask that you use all influence with state, county and municipal authori- ties to this end. Preliminary steps should be taken immediately in order that necessary authority may be se- cured in time for operations upon opening of construction season."
