WASUINfiTON. It isn't gener
nlly retillzed, hut the law appar
ently remlii that the president
could Bend national guard troops
to fight in at leant certain parts
of the new world without any 11
thorlatlou by congi-etui.
The word "apparently" la used,
tx-ciuiKt' there is snme conflict nr
opinluu. Hut hero Ih the setup:
Ihe count It 11 1 Ion authorizes the
president to call out "the militia"
to repel Invasion, put down rebel
lion or enforce the taws. This was
always interpreted to mean that
the inllltla. nr uunrd. could lie
summoned to flcht invaders only
11 tnose invaders tiad ulreaily
crossed the border.
In 1H12. however. Attorney Gen
eral WlckerrOiam handed down a
iiilliiK on the matter which con
siderably changed possibilities.
Actual Power Questionable
U'lckershaiu ruled that the
inllltla could not. in the ordi
nary course of things, be sent
across the border. However, he
said, i the invaders had been re
pelled lu this country and it was
necessary to chase them across
the border in order to ciipture
and disarm tUein. the militia
could be used in that way; 'furth
ermore. If an invading force "were
inobilllnc beyond the border with
evident Intent to invade the Unit
ed States, the militia might be or
dered to cross Ihe border and "re
pel" them before they got her.
Mow broad tlto president's pow
ers may be is open lo some ques
tion. If Kuropean troops should
i tie landed on one of tbe Caribbean
, islands, for Instance, the matter
I of their "evident Intent" to Invade
the United States would probably
!be for the president to decide.
Guard's Strength Secret
The exact degree of prepared
ness which the national guard has
today Is kept secret.
The guard contains 18 fully or
ganized Infantry divisions of the
so-called "square" type four in
fantry regiments apiece. In addi
tion, there are HI air corps obser
vation squadrons, four cavalry
divisions. 21 anti-aircraft regi
ments, II harbor defense regi
ments and three mobile tractor
drawn 8-lnch gun artillery regi
ments the whole coming to a to
tal of 212,708 officers and men.
What is kept secret Is the state
nf the guard's equipment. Large
sums have been voted In recent
years S43.unu.uno in 11139. 171.-
iiuo.nuo In lrilti. and IH8.OOU.Ooo
for the coming year.
It is known that much of the
national guard equipment which
has been on order has been ill
verted to the regular army on de
livery.
Kind Cruelty
The puffin, a bird of the Far
North, deserts Its young, thereby
reducing their woight, by starva
tion, and enabling them to flutter
down to the sea lightly and safe
v from their nests on hlirh cliffs.
Sole. Atjtncy for Ftsk
Tires Hert Designated
Announcement was made today
by W. L. llerron, local sales re
presentative of Tide Water Asso
ciated Oil company, that his com
pany bad completed arrangements
for the exclusive sale of Flsk tires
throughout the Pacific coast mar
keting territory.
Mr. Herron particularly stressed
the features of the Flsk Saftl
Flight tire with its exclusive pat
ented white rubber Insert tread
which had led to the claim that
this famous crcutlon of Fik Is the
safest tire ever built.
Newspaper advertising Is being
used to introduce Pacific coast
motorists to this new service,
whereby Flsk tires can now be ob
tained at Associated service sta
tions throughout tbe west.
Decisive Post
At one time railroads had no
signals. When engineers met on
a slnirlu track, tliev had to argue it
out. letter a post was erected mid
way between stations and the ttrst
eimlne to pass It went forward,
while the other backed up.
