Widening Of Training
In Militia Is Urqed

Training OF q greater number Of
men than Is now possible in the
regularly organized units Of the Ma
tional Guard Of the country is being
sought by the National Guard As
sociation Of the United States. It Is
proposed that steps be taken to
secure full-time leave for National
Guard Federal caretakers, In order
that they may be enabled to attend
camp with their units without loss
Of pay. Another move seeks q change
in the regulations which would pro-
vide for Is days of field training
each year with every National Guard
unit of limited number Of officers
and enlisted men now assigned to
the inactive National Guard.
The association also is urging that
its Legislative Committee ask Con-
gress to appropriate money to make
1t possible for each corps area to
conduct command and general staff
schools annually. It was pointed
out that the new course prepared by
the Command and General Stan
School at Fort Leavenworth, to be
conducted by corps area headquar-
ters, Is designed to I'LL such q need
and Is held to be a most valuable
and necessary contribution to such
training.
Pointing further to the need Of
military education for officers not
entitled to attend the Command and
General Staff Schools, the National
Guard ofncials urged that the proper
authorities be requested to secure
a greater number Of vacancies for
National Guard officers to attend
the service schools and especially
at those service schools where pres
ent records of the National Guard
Bureau of the War Department
show the number of officers apply
ing to attend the service school ex-
ceeds the number allotted to attend
the school.
The Guardsmen also are con-
cerned with the lack of protection
for them while on training duty.
They are urging that Congress be
asked to provide for some satisfac-
tory form Of compensation for
Guardsmen while on Federal duty
along the lines of the form of in
surance that was provided for all
members of the United States Army
during the World War. They be-
lieve that the National Guardsmen
should be protected and their fam
lilies assured compensation in the
event of serious or fatal injuries
while on duty under orders. They
point out that while members OF the
National Guard are called upon each
year to perform a tour Of duty under
the War Department and the COM
missioned and enlisted personnel are
subject at all times to call to duty
under Federal orders, there is no
provision made for the protection
Of these men against injuries that
result fatally and 1t u almost I'M
possible to get any compensation tor
