txti
rany In the regiment showed it to be
748 enlisted men short of the war
strength total at that time. Inclusion
of about 100 recruits who have not been
assigned to companies, however, re
cuces the shortage virtually to 650
men.-
When the call for the mobilization
came last Sunday night the regiment was
reany 1000 men short of its required
war strength. Colonel May and his
officers are' much encouraged by the
showing made so far In obtaining re
cruits, but Colonel May emphasized
again last night the urgency of filling
ine ranks or the regiment at the earli
est possible moment.
' The strength of each 4 company In
the regiment in officers and enlisted
men, as reported to Colonel May at (
o'clock, was as follows:
Company, Town. Officers. Men
Headquarters, Portland ............. 2 48
Sanitary. Portland 4
Supply. Portland 2 SO
Machine gun, Portland .............. 3 7."
Company A, McMlnnvllle. 3 80

Company L, Dallas 3 96
Company M, Salem 8 118

staff
Total ..48
-Only One Officer Needed.
As there are nine field and
officers in the Third Oregon, the total
number of officers at present in the
regiment Is 55, which Is only one less
man me required 66 officers.
"The figures," commented Colonel
May, "show an apparent shortage of
748 enlisted men below the required
war strengtn or zooz. I am confident,
however, that this should be reduced
about 100, for there are about that
number of recruits who have been ex
amined today and accepted In Port
land and at other armories In the
state, who are not included in the re
ports of the enlisted strength of the
various companies.
"I am much pleased with 'the re
sponse so far to the call for recruits.
It is urgent, however, that we obtain
Btlll more than we are getting. We
ought to have the regiment up to full
War strength by the early part of
next week so that we can drill as a
complete war regiment and be ready
for any contingency."
Rejections About 10 Per Cent.
Approximately 100 recruits had been
examined by the surgeons in Portland
tip to last night. The rejections aver
age only a little more than 10 per
cent, which is considered a very good
showing.'
A race Is on between Company M,
of Salem, and Company F, of Port
land, with Company I, of Woodbirrn,
a, close third, for the honor of being
the first company to report at full
war strength.
Both companies last night had 116
men. A company at full war strength
has ISO men. . Company I, in third
place, had 101 men. Company M was
the first company to be brought to
full war strength .In the mobilization
at Camp Withycombe last Summer,
and its members' are eager to repeat.
The other companies, and particularly
Company F, are as eager that the hon
ors be wrested from them this time.
George A. White, Adjutant-General
of the Oregon National Guard, received
wo.-d yesterday from headquarters of
the Western Department, United States
Army at San Francisco, that a large
quantity of quartermaster supplies is
being shipped to provide for the new
men being mustered into the Third
Oregon to put the regiment on a war
footing.
Variety of Articles Shipped.
The list of the supplies Included in
the shipment enumerates about every
thing from meat knives for the mess
Iclts to supply wagons for the combat
train, and from woolen sieves to sad
dlers' wax.
Here are Just a few of the many
Items that a regiment requires: -t
Twenty-eight hundred pairs of woolen
breeches, 5670 pairs of drawers, 3700
pairs of marching shoes, 2756 flannel
ehirts, 7560 pairs light wool stock
ings. 1890 cots, 6760 undershirts, 1884
belts, 1483 blankets, 1890 bed sacks,
1160 mosquito bars, 826 pairs of chev
rons for non-commissioned officers,
1700 pounds of nails, 1216 overcoats,
131 pickaxes, branding Irons, harness
needles, a portable forge for horse
ehoers, an assortment of halters and
straps, four sets of colors and stand
ards, 701 extra shelter tents, which,
with 1189 already in possession of the
regiment, makes a total of 1890, rope
for picketing horses, field ranges for'
cooking, 14 shoe stretchers, 355 pounds
of soap, 1956 stovepipe joints, 1890
pairs of woolen gloves, 1243 woolen
coats, 88 sets of leather harness, 396
cases of matches, 172 mosquito head
nets, 59 lantern globes, currycombs,
hat bands and many other things.
The assortment even includes four
pairs of steel handcuffs.,
Adjutant-General's Office Busy.
The Adjutant-General's office, which
has been a mighty busy place during
the progress of. the mobilization, is on
a normal basis again, which is some
feat in itself, considering the many de
mands made upon the office and its or
ganization. Though recruits are being examined
and enlisfVd at the rate of more than
100 a day, and all the enlistment papers
must be filed, recorded and approved by
the Adjutant-General, General White
and his office are up to date in their
work.
The mobilization has proceeded with
out delay because of "the advance prep
arations made by General White. Im
mediately on his return from the Mex
ican border, in anticipation of the prob
able call. General White made ready
lor handling it when it should come.'
Mobilization orders complete, giving
Instructions in all details, were in the
hands of officers of the Third Oregon
three days before the War Department
order came. General White had planned
to leave Portland last Thursday for
New York to attend there-the National
Guard conference from all states, but
he canceled his arrangements to go, and
consequently was right on the Job in
his office at 10 o'clock Sunday night,
when the War Department call arrived.

FEDERAL RULE FAVORED
Resolutions Urge That State Organ'
izatlons Be Taken Out of Militia
Class, Witn Representation
on- the General Staff.
NEW YORK. March 29. Universal
compulsory military training, with the
National Guard as a part of the Federal
force, was recommended by the unani
mous vote of the delegates to the Na
tionai defense convention of the Na
tlonal Guard Association of the United
States at Its closing session here today.
Members of the universal service
committee of veterans of the National
Guard and Naval Militia, meeting later,
went ,on record as favoring "universal
military training and service under ex
elusive Federal control for all male
citizens of the United States of suitable
age."
Delegates who attended the defense
convention declared tonight that the
significance of the resolutions passed
by the veterans lay In the fact they
favored compulsory universal service
under exclusive Federal control, with
out mentioning the National Guard as
a part of the Federal force.
The resolutions presented to the de
fense convention were amended before
the vote was taken so as to provide
that the National Guard be taken out
of the militia class and become "a veri
table Federal force, with such pro
visions governing the location of units,
the appointment of officers and repre
sentatives in the general staff as the
Congress may prescribe."
The original draft simply said that
the association reaffirmed its convic
tion that the National Guard "should
be organized as a Federal force" and
requested Congress to "enact the nec
essary legislation" for the purpose of
completing its federalization.
The resolutions as finally passed were
also changed to read that the National
necessity exists for "universal compul
sory military training" instead of "com
pulsory, military training."
