ARMY TOCONS|DER
TAKING IN GUARD
Gen. McPherren on Commit.
tee to Study Proposal of
Association.
By the Associated Press.


The expressed desire of the Ma
tional Guard Association that the
State forces be embodied by law in
the Army of the United States in
peace times as we'll as when in the
Federal service. has resulted in pub
lication of a special order by the War
Department naming Brig. Gen.
Charles c. McPherren. Oklahoma Ma
tional Guard, senior member of a
committee to study the subject.
The other members of the COM
mittee are Col. Lyle Brown. Engi
neer Corps Regular Army; Col
Charles W, Harris, adjutant general
of Arizona; Lieut.. Col Charles c.
Wren. Texas National Guard. and
Mai, Fred w. Llewellyn. Regular
Army.
The order directs that the commit
tee study a resolution adopted by the
National Guard Association at its
annual convention last November
proposing certain amendments to the
national defense act and report. to
the Secretary of War recommended
tions for action to make effective the
proposed changes. The order direct
ed that the report be completed prior
to October l in order that recon-
mendations to Congress on the sub
ject could be formulated. The final
meeting of the whole committee will
be in Washington.
The guard association resolution
was aimed at the provision of the
national defense act, which appar-
emily places the National Guard in
the Army of the United States when
the State forces have been called
into the Federal service in time of
emergency. Legal questions are in
volved in the proposed changes which
might make a radical alteration in
the peace-time relationship of the
State troops to the Federal Govern
ment and it is in that connection that
the study has been ordered.
