HOUSE bALKS AT CHANGING PRE-WAR
 BASIS FOR GUARD
Compromise With Senate Permitting States to Fed eralize Forces Refused
 209 to 106
sv As,oola,ed Prss.

Washington, May 19-The House re- fused today to approve a compromise agreement with the Senate permitting states to federalize the National Guard The vote was 209 to 106.
 By it's action the House sent the army reorganization bill back to conference with instructions to it's managers to m sst against changing the pre-war basis of the guard organization
 The compromise was offered to break deadlock that blocked final passage of the army reorganization bill.
 Senator Wadsworth, New York, head ing the Senate conferees, announced that he would present the disagreement to the Senate tomorrow with motion that the Senate insist upon liberalization of the guard
 During House debate several members attacked the Senate proposal on the ground that it's adoption would kill the guard by making it a part of the reg ular army. The new scheme of organ ization also was opposed as step towafe adoption of system of compulsory 1rsli- tary training. ft
 telegram from Bennett Clark, presi- dent of the National Guard Association of the United States, opposing the change. was read on the floor. His IatneF, HftepIeSCiledtiNC N|hSti'P ,>f -. democratic leader. was among the speSA- CTS protesting against the Senate plan.
 sTHREE-YEAR CONSPIRACY"
 '.This is a culmination of three-year conspiracy of the general staff and a cer- tain element in the regular army to Kill off the National Guard" declared Repre- sentative Anthony, republican, Kansas, in attacking the compromise. Its adoption would cause half of the states to change their constitution before they might spend a single dollar in support of federalized guard"
 Answering Mir Anthony. Chairman Kahn of the military committee urged ac- ceptance declaring the only question Tn yolved was one of permitting each state to determine the basis of its gaurd os' ganization.
 Representative Sanford, republican, New York, another supporter of the compromise, said under the present ses- tenn the guard, whenever called Tn fed eral service, would be huniliated by be- ing broken up.
 The men opposing this change were not on the right side of any Of the great questions during the war; declared MG' Sanford, adding that he did not ques- ton the loyalty of the men. His re- mark caused an uproar in the House, Representative Frear. Wisconsin, de- manding that his words be expunged from the record. Mir. Sanford finally with drew them, explaining that he did pot intend to reflect on the motives Of any members.
