ORDER AIDS FORMING OF NEW GUARD UNITS

In order to expedite the organization and recognition of new units in the na- tional guard, the war department has ruled that national guard units that all ready have received federal recognition may recruit their organization above the strength authorized in the tables of authorization. When a sufficient mum Der of men have been enlisted so that the original organization can dispense with 50 or more men and. stih retain their authorized minimum strength. they may transfer the additional 50 or more and request recognition of a new unit
 Captain E. S. Linton. organizer of the national guard, stated yesterday that in accordance with this ruling such men as have qualified in the na- tional guard will be allowed to be mus tered in as part of the new unit
 "One Of the good features of that ruling" said Captoin Linton, lis that it frequently takes considerable time to enlist the necessary personnel. and the men who sign up become discour- aged waiting for the completion of the organization. With the new procedure a man can enlist in an old organization and while waiting the formation of tho new organization, receive credits ana pay for all drills attended while in tho old organization"
