II would be sheer murder to send
the national guard into combat
against a first-class power this
summer.
The guard today is equipped to
fight war on the model not even
of 1els-but OF about 1918. For
1910 war. high guard officer
estimates the guard is about 90
per cent equipped. and less than
so per cent organized and trained.
The guard is called our first
reserve but IL II had 10 be
plunged into major battle today
IL would be our first reverse-and
no fault of the guard. either.
All this is well known to Gem
George G. Marshall chief OF staff.
He has had much experience with
the guard. especially in Illinois.
He knows previous war depart
ment plans to call on the guard
for action after 30 days are now
just so many scraps OF paper. He
knows IL would take not 30 DAYS.
but three months, TO get ready
for action even the best guard d.
vision in the country. The rest
would require at least nine months
preparation, and even then the
men would not he fully equipped.
II the guard today were COM
PEELED to oppose the German air
force and mechanical divisions on
the Aisne. IL would be wiped out.
II has few anti-aircrsft guns Of
3-inch and so caliber-none what
ever of 37-millimeter, which are
especially valuable to ground
troops. II is very short Of search
lights and sound locators, and It's
armores are too small 10 store
what is needed, even II 1t were
available.
II has no special guns. and
therefore no special training for
anti-tank defense" Its tank COM
panies. which should have 10 mod
ern tanks apiece. have only two
antiques. II has no semi-automatic
rifles, and even by next summer
only one regiment to a state will
have them.
The guard doesn't shoot as
straight as II should, partly be-
cause 1t is short of proper target
ranges. The last report shows that
in a year one-third Of the guard
eoast-defense batteries either did
not fire a shot or fired poorly.
The field batteries have plenty
Of mostly OF World war or
Immediately post-World war model.
But II the enemy used gas, only
a few rounds could be fired before
guns and men went out Of action,
for only about one gusrdsman in
five has a gas mask.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1940-06-28

were killed in the Revolu-
tionary War"
II is high time the city ban
on fireworks was changed to
make II a statewide prohibi-
ton.
IT IS with pleasurable pride
Tacomans note the city,
wide activity marking the
preparations for dedication of
the Narrows bridge and Nc
Chord Field. These two
achievements will stand out
as landmarks in the city's his
tory. II is well for local resi-
dents to celebrate the events
with as much gusto and en-
thusiasm as possible. There
is every reason to warrant
the jubilee spirit. Let's make
the most of it and let every
individual cooperate to the
extent Of his or her ability to
make the celebration \ never
be-forgotten one.
defense is some
thing that concerns every
individual and community in
the nation. IL isn't sufficient
to let the president, the con-
gress, and the army and
navy departme nts do all
the work. There are equal
obligations to be discharged
by cities, states and counties
as well. The expanding pro-
gram locally imposes respon-
sibilities that all of Tacoma
and Pierce county should as
sumo. The rapid influx Of
men to Fort Lewis and Nc.
Chord Field is making a
serious problem of housing
