ARNORY URGED
FOR GUARD

''The Federal Government doesn't
even. follow its own rules when
dealing with national guardsmen
In Washington, Maj. Gen. c. C.
Hammond declared in an address at
the dinner last night in honor of
the new ommander-in-chief OF the
Veterans of Foreign Wars, Lieut..
Eugene p. Carver, of Boston.
The dinner was given by the
Washington post OF the .organiza.
ton at the Hamilton Hotel. The
Federal Government will not recog-
nize a state national guard until
the Commonwealth builds an ar
mory, but it doesn't follow its own
regulations and build an armory
for the Washington national guard,
he declared.
!. Mai. Gen. Anton Stephan told
Of his fight for the past 20 years
to obtain an armory for the Dis
trict. He was blocked by two SEN
ators last year, he said. but looked
for better results in the future.
Shortly before Major General
Hammond berated the Federal Gov
ernment for its lackadaisical man
ner of transacting business with
the District national guard, the
military and naval committee of
the Board OF Trade met and dis
cussed a resolution that would ask
Congress to purchase the Washing.
ton Auditorium and convert il into
an armory for the District guards
men.
1t is expected the committee will
go on record as favoring the
project. Gen. Ely HeilniCk is chair
man.
