M'NUTT LAUDS
| NATIONAL GUARD
Cites Efficiency in 'Preserv.
ing Life, Law and
Property

The National Guard was charac-
terized as the backbone of Ameri-
can military preparedness by Gov.
McNutt yesterday in his weekly ra-
dio address.
Making only one reference to the
use of guardSmen to curb labor
troubles during his administration,
Gov. McNutt said:
During the last three years the
high efficiency of our National
Guard has been demonstrated in
peace-time assignments for the pres
ervation of life, of property and of
the law in instances where a high
degree of diplomacy and courage
obviated the use of force or arms"
We do not need military eStab-
lishment comparable to the militar-
istic empires of Europe, Gov Nc
Mutt said, because we are a peace
loving nation and concerned only
with defense.
