recital by the Midshipmens Or
chestra and Glee Club were the
days only June Week activities.
But first sclassmen took full ad-
vantage Of their June Week priv

with parents and sweethearts, here
for the first commencement week
since declaration of war.

Meanwhile, the new VS. class,
consisting OF coaches and athletes,
registered for a 30-day indoctrina-

General Hits Use of City's
Funds for Minute Men

BALTIMORE. June Is lP,.-The
request Of a committee of private
citizens for city funds to uniform
Baltimore Minute Men has met the
opposition of Maj. Gen Milton A.
Reckord, commanding ohicer of the
Third Corps Area.
Terming the request a mistake"
Gen. Reckord, in a statement made
public by Gov. O'Conor. said that
"as the Minute Men organization
is State organization, and unless
the city and counties voluntarily
offer to finance same, these sub
divisions Of the State should not
be importuned to do So"
Gen. Reckord stated that "to win
this war the largest and most highly
trained Army and Navy ever de-
veloped IN our history must be used
for offensives outside the conti-
mental United States.
Attacks Seen Possible.
Every highly trained soldier who
has to be kept within the United
States to guard munitions plants,
power dams. railways and other in
stallations is loss to our offensive
striking power"
He added there were thousands
Of miles of American coast line and
hundreds of thousands of acres of
American territory so sparsely
settled that the landing of sea-
borne or air-borne raiding parties
or the organization and training of
raiding parties within our borders
is entirely feasible.
Men who by reason of age or
physical disabilities are not suitable
for use at the fighting front can be
utilized for guard duty at home.
These same men, however, are
needed to work at the job of supply
ing food and munitions to the fight
ing men at the front.
Blow to War Effort.
1T is a serious blow to the war
effort to enroll these workers in
guard organizations and then to
call them away from their employ
ment permanently to guard every
installation in this country which
might be attacked by saboteurs or
raiding parties"
The revival Of the ancient con-
ception Of the citizen soldier what
we in America have called the
'militia-men' and the 'minute-men,'
is the only feasible answer to this
enormous problem" Gen. Reckord
declared.
