The War Department policy for
Guard organizations is aimed par
ticularly, one source said, against
the prewar practice by which sew
eral States used the assignments as
political rewards.
The new policy, which states that
the Guards total strength is ex-

iII not less than 10 divisions, pro-
vides that officers may be selected
only from wartime officers who
have clearly demonstrated their
