tional guard has arrived in Doug las to remain for fifteen days at Camp Harry J. Jones for the purpose of receiving military training.
 The guard is a new organiza- tion to take the place of the one which was taken into the regular army when the United States entered the world war. The main body of the National guard visitors were preceded by Lieut.. Col. H. A. Hannigan, inspector instructor and Adjutant General Walter Ingalls,.

Under the national defense act, approved June 4, 1920, this state was required to furnish its quota of 425, ,OOO troops, the allocation to be completed by July 1, re quired one battalion, headquart CTS, infantry. one battalion head quarters company, three rife companies and two machine gun field artillery.
 ''These troops have been or ganized, inspected and given federal recognition. They are now coming to camp for their first years training. Their com plete equipment has been au thorized and is being rapidly received. All troops coming to this camp which have not al ready received their equipment will be equipped at camp. By the first of July Arizona will rank near the head of all the states in it's national guard.
 "The adjutant general, Col. earnest efforts, succeeded in giv ing the people of Arizona a thoroughly equipped force which guarantees to the state ample protection in any emergency. After July 1, the state will be- gin to raise other forces in order to complete full regiment of infantry. The future success of the guard depends wholly upon the people of the state.
