Separate National Guard From General Staff Plea
Washington December 2 AP The annual report of Major General George Richards head of the Pennsylvania National Guard urges separating the Militia Bureau from the War Department General Staff by creating a dedicated Assistant Secretary to handle National Guard affairs with separate appropriations. He cites staffing familiarity and calls for defined duties and regulation or law to prevent misallocation of funds. The report seeks a separate appropriation and criticizes annual general officer exams for delaying promotions. General Hammond, new militia chief, backs changes to non recognition of new guard units and urges higher appropriations for pay and armory drills. A leaking tap example underscores resource waste concerns.
