MILITIA TO (LET DO1,11l1l1.E APP i10PIlA T ION In the Defense Program He Nat ionl! (uaaiird to be GIena lts Shinre of Al. tention. Washington, Oct. 31.-Practically doubled federal appropriations for the state militia and opening of the proposed coltinental army to any or ganization or individual of the na tional gaurd desiring to enter and free to do so are contemplated in the army side of the administration's national defense program. Details of provision for tile militia were made public in a statement to day by Secretary Garrison, coimmit Ing upon confereices at the war de partient last week by the executive committee of the National Guard as sociation. Although opposition to the continental army idea was expressed at flist by some of the national guard ofilcers, when the conferences closed it wos annonced that a mutual view point had been reached. "This body (the national guard)" said Mr. Garrison's statement, "(luring all the time when there was praetl eally no interest in this countmry coi corning militia matters, has been working to do whatever IL.cy could do to improve the militia situation of this country. They are absolutely en titled by virtue of this fiet, to full and proper recognition in any military system or policy to be proposed by the war department. "In my proposition any and every organization of the national guard that is free to do so Insofar as its state obligations are concerned, may come over into the national force in tact and be accordedlexactly the same position therein that it now holds. Any individual who prefers the intenl sive training and other features of the national force will likewise he admit l l tlieleo, raink Itmr ranik aud gr'a(l for gratie.
