OP 

THE  ADJUTANT  GENERAL 

OF  THE 

STATE  OF  NORTH  CAROLINA 

FOR  THE  PERIOD  JANUARY  1,  1938— DECEMBER  31,  1940 


To:  His  Excellency,  The  Governor  of  North  Carolina  and  Com- 
mander-in-Chief, North  Carolina  National  Guard,  Raleigh, 
North  Carolina. 

Sir: — Submitted  herein  is  a  report  of  the  operation  of  the 
Adjutant  General's  Department  and  on  matters  pertaining  to  the 
National  Guard  for  the  triennium  January  1,  1938,  through 
December  31,  1940. 

THE  ADJUTANT  GENERAL'S   DEPARTMENT 

The  following  is  a  report  made  under  date  of  December  30, 
1938,  covering  this  year : 

It  is  our  effort  to  handle  State  funds  to  the  best  interest  of  the 
National  Guard  and  to  run  the  office  on  an  economical  basis.  Our 
appropriation  as  made  annually  by  the  General  Assembly  is  not 
quite  enough  to  enable  us  to  carry  on  some  of  the  normal  activi- 
ties necessary  in  the  maintenance  and  training  of  the  troops.  In 
the  operation  of  the  Adjutant  General's  Department,  it  is  stated 
that  salaries  in  general  of  the  office  employees  are  in  keeping 
with  the  salaries  for  the  respective  positions  as  paid  in  all  State 
Departments.  We  do  not  have  a  surplus  of  employees,  endeavor- 
ing at  all  times  to  carry  on  the  work  necessary  with  a  minimum 
force. 

STRENGTH  OF  THE   NATIONAL   GUARD 

The  present  strength  of  the  North  Carolina  National  Guard 
is  3,438  officers  and  men.  The  strength  allotted  the  State  by  the 
War  Department  is  3,560  officers  and  men.  It  is  required  by 
the  Federal  Government  that  each  unit  maintain  a  minimum 
strength,  according  to  the  tables  of  organization,  in  order  to 
retain  Federal  support  and  Federal  equipment.  There  are  sixty 
units  with  station  in  many  sections  and  counties  throuhout  the 


4  Report  of  The  Adjutant  General 

State.     All  units  authorized  by  the  War  Department  have  been 
organized. 

TRAINING 

The  Adjutant  General  has  always  endeavored  to  maintain  and 
train  the  National  Guard  purely  as  a  military  organization  with- 
out regard  to  politics  or  religion;  endeavoring  at  all  times  to 
secure  the  best  available  officer  personnel  to  perform  the  partic- 
ular and  necessary  military  duties  to  which  assigned.  Enlisted 
men  and  junior  officers  having  shown  the  proper  ability  and 
interest  are  given  the  opportunity  for  promotion  to  fill  occurring 
vacancies.  In  the  selection  of  officer  personnel  to  command 
these  troops  it  is  our  desire  to  secure  these  officers  from  the  citi- 
zenship and  to  secure  officers  who,  having  the  military  knowl- 
edge, confidence  and  respect  of  the  business  community  in  which 
they  live  and  who  understanding  that  there  is  work  to  be  done, 
feel  that  they  can  and  will  give  sufficient  time  to  these  military 
duties  that  they  may  maintain  an  efficient  organization. 

SPECIAL   DUTY   OF   TROOPS 

It  is  very  pleasing  to  state  that  there  has  been  no  unlawful 
disturbances  within  the  State  within  the  past  two  years  necessi- 
tating the  Governor  to  order  on  duty  any  part  of  the  National 
Guard,  however,  during  1937  one  unit  was  called  on  duty  at  High 
Point  to  assist  in  the  rescue  of  men  covered  in  a  landslide  in 
connection  with  the  construction  of  the  railroad  tunnel.  In  years 
past  National  Guard  troops  have  protected  prisoners  on  trial 
and  have  been  used  in  disasters  embodying  conflagrations  and 
tornadoes,  etc.,  and  have  performed  in  these  duties  a  splendid 
service  to  the  State  and  citizenship. 

ARMORIES 

For  the  many  years  past  units  of  the  National  Guard  have 
occupied  armories  leased  by  them  for  the  purpose  and  usually 
located  in  some  mercantile  building  in  the  community  and  gen- 
erally on  an  upstairs  floor.  Such  armories  have  never  been  satis- 
factory and  in  the  last  two  or  three  years  the  War  Department, 
which  issues  to  each  National  Guard  unit  from  $50,000  to 
$100,000  worth  of  Federal  property,  has  been  more  insistent  that 
proper  and  adequate  armories  be  provided  for  training  and  par- 
ticularly for  care  of  Government  property  against  theft  and 
fire.  Within  the  last  two  years,  through  the  Works  Progress 
Administration  and  the  sponsorship  of  municipalities  and  coun- 


Report  of  The  Adjutant  General  5 

ties,  we  have  had  constructed  in  the  State  twenty-three  new 
and  adequate  brick  armories,  which  armories  are  occupied  by 
twenty-six  units  of  the  Guard.  In  Greensboro,  through  arrange- 
ments with  the  municipality,  there  has  been  constructed  a  suit- 
able armory  which  is  occupied  by  four  units.  At  the  present 
time  we  are  endeavoring  to  arrange  for  the  construction  of  three 
additional  armories. 

ALLOTMENT  TO  OFFICERS 

Under  Section  6889,  Consolidated  Statutes  of  1919,  as  amended 
from  time  to  time,  certain  allotments  are  made  to  officers  and 
organizations  of  the  National  Guard.  The  amount  authorized 
as  payment  to  each  organization  annually  of  $600.00  is  not  suffi- 
cient to  pay  armory  rent  in  the  majority  of  cases,  and  this 
amount  necessarily  is  augmented  in  many  instances  by  allot- 
ments made  by  counties  and  municipalities.  There  is  also  the 
matter  of  other  minor  expenses  incident  to  the  maintenance  of 
an  armory  and  the  organization.  The  allotment  authorized  for 
certain  officers  of  the  Guard  who  have  administrative  functions 
throughout  the  year  cannot  be  paid  in  full  because  of  the  lack  of 
funds  in  this  item  of  our  budget.  These  officers  give  a  great 
amount  of  time  and  thought  to  the  maintenance  and  training  of 
their  respective  commands  and,  I  feel,  are  entitled  to  the  full, 
though  small,  amount  as  authorized  in  the  law. 

OPPORTUNITIES  FOR  NATIONAL  GUARDSMEN 

The  Federal  Government  authorizes  each  year  a  certain  num- 
ber of  the  officer  and  enlisted  personnel  to  attend  the  Regular 
Army  Service  Schools  for  a  period  of  approximately  three 
months. 

Each  year  the  War  Department  affords  the  Governor  one  to 
two  recommendations  of  an  enlisted  man  of  the  Guard  to  take 
an  examination  for  entrance  to  the  United  States  Military  Acad- 
emy. This  selection  is  made  under  War  Department  regulations 
based  upon  a  preliminary  examination  held  in  this  office;  the 
man  attaining  the  highest  general  average  receiving  the  recom- 
mendation. 

Through  competitive  rifle  range  work  the  National  Guard  rifle 
team  is  selected  each  year  to  attend  the  National  Rifle  Matches 
at  Camp  Perry,  Ohio,  at  Federal  expense. 

In  these  matters  and  through  the  disciplinary  training  of  the 
young  men,  they  are  not  only  fitted  to  protect  themselves  in  case 
of  any  future  or  Federal  emergency  but  have  that  knowledge  of 


6  Report  of  The  Adjutant  General 

military  training  to  cause  them  to  perform  their  duties  in  a 
proper  and  efficient  manner  and  to  obey  orders  or  directions  of 
proper  and  higher  authority.  In  my  judgment,  this  training  is 
of  great  benefit  to  the  young  man  in  his  business  life,  all  of  which 
is  of  benefit  to  the  business  community  of  the  State. 

STATE  APPROPRIATION 

For  each  of  the  two  years,  as  stated,  the  State  appropriation, 
as  made  by  the  General  Assembly  for  the  fiscal  year  ending  June 
30,  1937,  was  $81,180  and  for  the  year  ending  June  30,  1938, 
$90,795.  Expenditures  from  the  appropriation  for  1937  are 
shown  in  the  copy  taken  from  the  report  of  the  audit  of  our

FEDERAL  FUNDS 

In  addition  to  the  amount  expended  from  State  funds,  as 
shown  in  paragraph  8,  above,  the  Federal  Government  has  pro- 
vided for  the  fiscal  year  1938,  through  the  United  States  Prop- 
erty and  Disbursing  Officer,  who  holds  a  dual  position  with  the 
State  and  Federal  Government,  approximately  the  following : 

For  Camps  of  Instruction,  including  service  pay, 

transportation  and  subsistence  _ ..$128,345.44 

Pay  of  officers  and  enlisted  men  for  attendance 

at  drills  at  home  stations 257,780.47 

Arms,  uniforms  and  equipment  and  miscel- 
laneous     122,847.00 

$508,972.91 

In  addition  to  the  above  the  War  Department  assigns  to  duty 
with  the  National  Guard  of  the  State  eight  Regular  Army 
Officers  as  Instructors  and  eight  Sergeant  Instructors  whose  pay 
and  expense  will  probably  approximate  $70,000.00. 

Approximately  $350,000  cash  goes  to  organizations  and  men 
in  the  counties  having  National  Guard  units.  Based  upon  the 
Federal  expenditures  of  $508,972.91  (excluding  the  Instructor 
personnel)  and  the  State  appropriation  of  $90,795.00  the  com- 
parative cost  per  year  per  man  in  maintaining  the  National 
Guard  of  North  Carolina  is  Federal  Government  $145.42  and 
State  $25.72. 

The  Adjutant  General  will  be  glad  to  furnish  further  infor- 
mation as  to  the  Military  service  of  the  State  and  this  Depart- 
ment as  may  be  desired.

Report  of  The  Adjutant  General  9 

1939. — Practically  no  unusual  activities  of  the  Department  or 
of  the  National  Guard  occurred  within  this  year.  It  is  believed 
that  the  statement  publicly  made  on  many  occasions  by  Governor 
Hoey,  that  sit-down  strikes  would  not  be  permitted  in  this  State 
and  that  law  and  order  would  be  maintained,  is  largely  responsi- 
ble for  the  fact  that  North  Carolina  was  not  troubled  with  law- 
lessness and  no  part  of  the  National  Guard  was  called  out  during 
this  period  for  service  in  the  State. 

The  War  Department  did,  however,  order  the  National  Guard 
into  seven  days'  winter  field  training  which  is  the  first  time  in 
the  history  of  the  Guard  that  the  organization  has  entered  field 
training  at  a  time  other  than  for  the  annual  summer  encamp- 
ments of  fifteen  days.  Copies  of  General  Orders  embodied  in 
this  report  give  more  detailed  information  as  to  these  maneuvers. 
These  maneuvers  were  most  satisfactory  and  of  much  value  in 
training  to  both  officers  and  men. 

Eleven  members  of  the  Governor's  personal  Staff  accompanied 
him  to  New  York  upon  occasion  of  North  Carolina  Day  at  the 
New  York  World's  Fair  which  date  was  June  14,  1939.  This  is 
the  first  occasion  in  several  years  upon  which  our  Governor  has 
used  his  full  Staff  upon  an  official  occasion. 


THE  STRENGTH  OF  THE  NATIONAL  GUARD 

Company  B,  105th  Medical  Regiment  was  organized  under 
authority  of  the  War  Department  in  April  1940  and  was  Feder- 
ally recognized  on  April  20. 

The  War  Department  authorized  in  September  1939  an  in- 
crease of  seven  hundred  fifty-three  (753)  enlisted  men  for  the 
Ntional  Guard  which  increased  the  strength  from  three  thousand 
four  hundred  thirty-eight  (3,438)  officers  and  men  to  two  hun- 
dred seventy-seven  (277)  officers,  five  (5)  warrant  officers  and 
four  thousand  thirteen  (4,013)  enlisted  men.  This  was  approxi- 
mately the  strength  of  the  National  Guard  when  authorized  an 
increase  to  peace  strength  immediately  prior  to  the  induction  of 
the  National  Guard  of  the  State  into  Federal  service  on  September 
16,  1940. 

NATIONAL  MATCHES  AND  MARKSMANSHIP 

The  State  sent  the  National  Guard  rifle  team,  composed  of 
the  team  coach,  ten  shooting  members  and  two  alternates,  to  the 
National  Matches,  Camp  Perry,  Ohio,  August  21-September  10, 
1938.     These  matches  are  held  at  the  expense  of  the  Federal 


10 


Report  of  The  Adjutant  General 


Government.  Civilian  Rifle  Team  also  attended  the  matches  in 
1938,  1939  and  1940.  Due  to  conflicting  dates  of  the  Army 
Maneuvers  in  Mississippi  and  Louisiana  during  August  1940 
with  those  of  the  matches,  we  did  not  send  a  National  Guard  team 
to  participate  in  this  year's  matches. 

Though  it  has  been  a  hard  matter  to  get  the  majority  of  those 
units  equipped  with  rifles  definitely  interested  in  marksmanship, 
a  few  companies  of  the  120th  Infantry  and  the  105th  Engineers 
entered  the  Indoor  Rifle  Matches  held  by  the  Chief  of  the 
National  Guard  Bureau  during  the  year  1939,  but  there  was  no 
participation  on  the  part  of  our  National  Guard  during  these 
matches  in  1940. 

UNITED  STATES  MILITARY  ACADEMY 

The  annual  competitive  examination,  open  to  all  enlisted  men 
of  the  National  Guard,  is  held  at  the  office  of  the  Adjutant 
General,  and  based  upon  which  the  Governor  has  the  opportunity 
to  recommend  an  enlisted  man  of  the  National  Guard  to  take  the 
final  competitive  and  entrance  examination  for  the  United  States 
Military  Academy  at  West  Point.  The  Governor's  recommen- 
dation in  1938  was  for  Private  Thorpe  C.  Grice,  Headquarters 
and  Service  Company,  105th  Engineers,  NC.  NG.,  station  Char- 
lotte, N.  C.  In  1939,  Private  Thorpe  C.  Grice  again  attained  the 
highest  standing  and  was  recommended  by  the  Governor.  Due 
to  the  standing  of  Private  LeRoy  W.  Wilson,  Jr.,  Company  E, 
105th  Engineers,  NC.  NG.,  station  Asheville,  N.  C,  Private  Wilson 
was  recommended  as  an  alternate.  In  1940,  Sergeant  Louis  G. 
Gamble,  Battery  F,  252nd  Coast  Artillery,  NC.  NG.,  station 
Raeford,  N.  C,  was  recommended  by  the  Governor. 

SERVICE  SCHOOLS 

During  the  years  1938,  1939  and  1940,  the  following  officers 
and  enlisted  men  of  the  North  Carolina  National  Guard  had  the 
opportunity  to  attend  United  States  Army  Service  Schools.  At- 
tendance in  these  schools  helps  materially  to  perfect  an  officer 
and  a  non-commissioned  officer  in  his  military  training,  all  of 
which  is  of  much  benefit  to  the  National  Guard.  I  may  say  that 
these  schools  also  are  conducted  at  Federal  Government  expense.

CAMPS,   ARMORY   DRILLS   AND   INSPECTIONS 

Army  drills  have  progressed  on  a  weekly  basis  as  heretofore 
at  home  stations  of  respective  units.  Each  year  the  War  Depart- 
ment assigns  regular  Army  Officers  as  inspectors  to  inspect  all 
units  of  the  National  Guard  at  their  home  stations.  These  inspec- 
tions bring  out  the  state  of  efficiency  in  training  of  the  men  of 
the  unit  and  conditions  of  property  and  armory  facilities.  In 
many  instances  the  Federal  Inspecting  Officers  have  criticized 
severely  certain  armories  which  have  been  leased  and  in  which 
adequate  facilities  are  not  available  for  the  proper  care  and 
protection  of  Federal  property.  Mainly  through  the  construc- 
tion of  new  armories,  some  of  these  conditions  have  been  cor- 
rected. Yet  there  is  still  a  criticism  of  other  armories  which  are 
not  adequate. 

Camps. — In  1938  the  Coast  Artillery  entered  its  summer  field 
training  at  Fort  Moultrie,  South  Carolina,  its  normal  place  of 
training.  The  remainder  of  the  National  Guard  went  into 
Maneuvers  in  the  DeSoto  National  Forest  near  Hattiesburg, 
Mississippi. 

In  1939  the  summer  camps  were  intended  to  be  held  at  Camp 
Jackson,  South  Carolina  and  at  Fort  Moultrie;  but  due  to  an 
epidemic  in  South  Carolina  at  that  time,  it  was  necessary  to 
change  the  camp  locations.  The  North  Carolina  part  of  the  30th 
Division  Headquarters  and  Detachments,  30th  Signal  Company, 
105th  Engineers,  and  105th  Medical  Regiment  encamped  at 
Camp  Foster,  Florida.  The  252d  Coast  Artillery  encamped  at 
Fort  Story,  Virginia.  The  113th  Field  Artillery  encamped  at 
Fort  Bragg,  North  Carolina.  The  120th  Infantry,  the  State 
Staff  and  Hq.  Co.,  60th  Brigade  were  at  Fort  McClellan,  Alabama 
in  July.     The  Brigade  Commander  and  Staff  visited  the  117th 


Report  of  The  Adjutant  General  13 

Infantry  in  camp  in  Tennessee  part  of  the  period  and  the  120th 
Infantry  at  Fort  McClellan  for  the  remainder  of  the  time. 

In  1940,  the  252d  Coast  Artillery  camped  at  Fort  Moultrie, 
South  Carolina  in  July.  All  other  branches  of  the  service  took 
part  in  the  Third  Army  Maneuvers  for  three  weeks,  spending 
part  of  the  time  in  training  with  the  30th  Division  in  the  vicinity 
of  Camp  Shelby,  Mississippi.  From  thence  they  proceeded  to 
the  Sabine  Area  in  Louisiana  where  they  were  joined  by  Regular 
Army  and  National  Guard  troops  from  eight  states  of  the  Fourth 
Corps  Area  for  the  large  maneuvers.  The  headquarters  for  these 
maneuvers  was  Camp  Beauregard  near  Alexandria,  Louisiana. 

ARMORIES 

Since  the  report  of  the  Adjutant  General  as  of  December  31, 
1937,  under  the  direction  of  Works  Progress  Administration 
with  the  assistance  of  local  communities  as  sponsors,  there  have 
been  constructed  additional  new  armories  at  Leaksville,  Parkton, 
Louisburg  and  Lumberton.  During  1940  construction  was  begun 
on  armories  at  Warrenton,  Roanoke-Rapids  and  Dunn;  these, 
however,  were  not  completed  at  the  end  of  1940.  Oxford  and 
Shelby  are  considering  such  construction. 

APPROPRIATION  RY  GENERAL  ASSEMRLY 

This  Department  presented  a  budget  of  approximately  $90,000 
to  the  General  Assembly  of  1939  and  in  the  hearings  before  the 
Joint  Appropriations  Committee,  the  Committee  gave  out  infor- 
mation that  this  budget  had  been  cut  by  approximately  $12,000. 
With  the  assistance  of  officers  of  the  Advisory  Board,  we  were 
able  to  restore  part  of  this  cut,  and  the  final  appropriation  for 
each  year  of  the  biennium  as  made  was  $83,421.  In  view  of  the 
reduction  of  the  annual  appropriation  of  the  National  Guard, 
this  Department  necessarily  curtailed  its  activities.  There  seems 
not  to  be  the  "interest  on  the  part  of  the  citizens  and  particularly 
our  General  Assembly  in  the  National  Guard  of  this  State  as  is 
manifest  by  the  appropriations  and  activities  in  the  majority  of 
other  states.  In  proportion  to  the  strength  of  the  National 
Guard  of  our  State  and  that  of  other  states,  North  Carolina  is 
towards  the  bottom  of  the  list  in  the  amount  of  appropriations 
made  by  the  respective  general  assemblies.  The  State's  money 
is  always  conserved  as  far  as  practicable  by  this  Department, 
yet  the  efficiency  of  the  National  Guard  suffers  to  some  extent 
for  lack  of  funds  with  which  to  carry  on  more  advanced  activi- 
ties. 


14  Report  of  The  Adjutant  General 

DEATHS 

Within  the  year  1938  the  Guard  lost  a  very  efficient  and  popu- 
lar medical  officer  in  the  death  of  Lt.  Col.  John  D.  Kerr,  Clinton, 
N.  C,  who  was  Executive  Officer  of  the  105th  Medical  Regiment. 
In  the  year  1939  Lt.  Col.  Walter  G.  Craven,  from  the  Staff  of  the 
34th  Division  died  suddenly  at  his  home;  and  early  in  the  year 
1939  Major  Charles  Barton  of  the  State  Staff,  who  commanded 
the  State  Detachment,  died  at  the  Armory  of  this  unit.  Both  of 
these  officers  had  for  a  number  of  years  rendered  most  valuable 
military  service  to  the  State  through  their  efficiency  and  popu- 
larity. 

CONVERSION  OF  CAVALRY  TO  ENGINEERS 

The  North  Carolina  squadron  of  Cavalry,  embodying  a  troop 
at  Lincolnton,  Asheville  and  Statesville,  was  under  General 
Orders  No.  12,  this  Department,  converted  to  Engineers.  The 
Cavalry,  a  squadron  of  the  109th  Cavalry  with  Headquarters  in 
Tennessee  became  the  2nd  Battalion,  105th  Engineers.  By  this 
conversion,  a  complete  Regiment  of  the  105th  Engineers  came 
under  the  command  of  North  Carolina  authorities,  as  formerly 
this  Battalion  was  allotted  to  South  Carolina. 

NORTH  CAROLINA  ANNUAL 

During  the  year  1938  the  Army  and  Navy  Publishing  Company 
published  the  National  Guard  annual,  State  of  North  Carolina. 
This  annual  was  purchased  by  individual  officers  and  men  of  the 
National  Guard  and  copies  were  furnished  the  North  Carolina 
Historical  Commission,  the  University  of  North  Carolina,  North 
Carolina  State  College,  the  Congressional  Library  and  other 
libraries.  The  annual,  among  other  things,  gives  the  historical 
military  record  of  the  militia  and  National  Guard  of  North 
Carolina  going  back  to  the  colonial  period — 1662,  embodying 
conflict  with  the  Indians  and  other  historical  military  activities 
in  which  North  Carolina  was  involved,  through  North  Carolina's 
part  in  the  World  War  1917-1919. 

There  is  included  in  this  history,  a  sketch  of  the  individual 
Companies,  Batteries  and  Troops  of  the  then  existing  National 
Guard  of  the  State.  Photographs  are  shown  of  units  and  of 
individual  groups  in  their  military  training. 

INDUCTION    OF    THE    NATIONAL    GUARD    INTO    FEDERAL    SERVICE 

AND  ORDERS  OF  THE  PRESIDENT  OF  THE  UNITED  STATES, 

SEPTEMBER    16,    1940 

Under  a  Proclamation  of  the  President  of  the  United  States 
and  Executive  Orders  No.  1,  September  10,  1940  issued  by  the 


Report  of  The  Adjutant  General  15 

Governor  of  North  Carolina,  the  entire  National  Guard  of  the 
State  with  the  exception  of  the  State  Staff  and  State  Detach- 
ment, was  ordered  into  Federal  Service  for  one  year's  training, 
in  view  of  conditions  confronting  the  Nation  because  of  the 
unrest  and  wars  in  Europe.  Though  preliminaries  leading  up 
to  the  induction  of  troops  entailed  a  vast  amount  of  work  on  the 
part  of  the  Adjutant  General's  Department,  the  induction  was 
carried  out  with  efficiency  and  without  serious  difficulties.  Each 
unit  of  the  Guard  mobilized  at  its  Home  Station  and  was  author- 
ized by  the  War  Department  to  further  recruit  towards  the 
war  strength  as  given  in  War  Department  tables  of  organization. 
Strength  of  the  Guard  upon  induction  September  16,  1940  was 
302  officers,  4  warrant  officers,  and  4,541  enlisted  men. 

Members  of  the  State  Staff  were  inducted  into  Federal  Service 
different  dates  between  September  16,  1940  and  October  15, 
1940 ;  and  were  assigned  by  the  War  Department  to  duty  with 
the  State  Headquarters,  Selective  Service.  The  Adjutant  Gen- 
eral, J.  Van  B.  Metts,  was  recommended  by  the  Governor  to  the 
President  for  appointment  as  State  Director  of  Selective  Service 
and  assumed  this  office  immediately  upon  the  formation  of  this 
Headquarters,  continuing  at  the  same  time  his  duties  as  the 
Adjutant  General  of  the  State.  Lt.  Col.  Gordon  Smith,  U.  S.  P. 
&  D.  0.,  was  appointed  State  Procurement  Officer  for  Selective 
Service.  Major  Thomas  H.  Upton,  State  Staff,  was  appointed 
Assistant  to  the  State  Director. 

The  State  Detachment,  consisting  of  approximately  26  men, 
was  reduced  to  4  men  and  these  as  a  State  Detachment  were 
inducted  into  Federal  Service  October  10,  1940  and  assumed 
their  duties  at  State  Headquarters,  Selective  Service. 

Within  fifteen  days  after  induction,  approximately  all  troops 
were  ordered  to  concentrate  at  Camp  Jackson,  South  Carolina, 
except  the  252d  Coast  Artillery  Regiment  (155mm-Gun)  which 
Regiment  was  ordered  to  Fort  Moultrie,  South  Carolina.  Later 
the  2nd  Battalion,  252d  Coast  Artillery,  was  ordered  to  Fort 
Screven,  Georgia. 

In  the  preparations  for  mobilization  of  the  North  Carolina 
National  Guard  upon  its  induction  into  Federal  Service,  much 
credit  is  due  Lt.  Col.  Gordon  Smith,  U.  S.  Property  and  Dis- 
bursing Officer  for  North  Carolina,  Major  Thomas  H.  Upton, 
State  Staff  and  to  the  corps  of  regular  Army  Instructor  per- 
sonnel at  that  time  on  duty  with  the  Guard ;  especially  was 
Colonel  Millard  F.  Waltz,  Infantry,  USA,  Senior  Instructor,  of

assistance  to  the  Adjutant  General.  I  cannot  refrain  from  ex- 
pressing appreciation  to  the  entire  office  force,  all  of  whom 
worked  much  overtime,  Saturday  afternoons  and  some  Sundays 
with  willingness  and  personal  interest. 

The  Proclamation  of  the  President  of  the  United  States  and 
the  Executive  Order  of  the  Governor  of  North  Carolina  and 
other  Orders  and  Circulars  pertaining  to  the  induction  of  the 
National  Guard  into  Federal  Service  is  given  later  in  this  report.

State  of  North  Carolina 

Office  of  U.  S.  Property  and  Disbursing  Officer 

Raleigh 

August  19,  1941. 
Subject:     Report. 

To:     The  Adjutant  General  of  North  Carolina,  Raleigh,  N.  C. 

1.  Report  of  the  United  States  Property  and  Disbursing  Officer  for  the 
period  July  1,  1937  to  June  30,  1941,  is  hereby  submitted. 

ACTIVITIES 

The  office  has  operated  and  functioned  in  accordance  with  federal  and 
State  laws  during  the  period  covered  by  this  report. 

FEDERAL  PROPERTY 

The  state  of  equipment  continues  to  be  excellent  and  in  most  cases  ade- 
quate. The  federal  government  has  furnished  needed  supplies  and  equipment 
on  requisition  and  has  approved  reports  of  survey  covering  unserviceable 
and  obsolete  equipment.  Obsolete  motor  vehicles  have  been  surveyed  and 
modern  up  to  date  vehicles  issued  in  lieu  thereof.  Equipment  furnished  by 
the  War  Department  has  been  ample  and  of  modern  types. 

The  four  years  covered  by  this  report  have  been  the  most  active  in  the 
history  of  the  office  and  the  following  is  of  interest: 

Number  of  requisitions  July  1,  1937  to  June  30,  1938 678 

Number  of  requisitions  July  1,  193S  to  June  30,  1939- 661 

Number  of  requisitions  July  1,  1939  to  June  30,  1940 1,045 

Number  of  requisitions  July  1,  1940  to  June  30,  1941 38 

Number  of  Reports  of  Survey  Fiscal  Year  1938.. ___       71 

Number  of  Reports  of  Survey  Fiscal  Year  1939 109 

Number  of  Reports  of  Survey  Fiscal  Year  1940 82 

Number  of  Reports  of  Survey  Fiscal  Year  1941 34 

Number  of  I  and  I  reports  Fiscal  Year  1938 212 

Number  of  I  and  I  reports  Fiscal  Year  1939  225 

Number  of  I  and  I  reports  Fiscal  Year  1940 315 

Number  of  I  and  I  reports  Fiscal  Year  1941 66 

FEDERAL  FUNDS 

The  number  of  vouchers  handled  were  as  follows: 

July  1,  1937  to  June  30,  1938 _ 1,388 

July  1,  1938  to  June  30,  1939 1,551 

July  1,  1939  to  June  30,  1940 ..2,051 

July  1,  1940  to  June  30,  1941 1,006 

The  work  of  the  office  from  a  financial  and  property  standpoint  continues 
to  increase  on  account  of  additional  requirements  in  accounting  for  property 
and  federal  funds.  Suspensions  have  been  negligible  and  the  office  has  an 
excellent  record  in  this  respect  as  well  as  for  general  efficiency. 

This  efficiency  may  be  attributed  to  the  employees  of  the  office  who  are 
painstaking,  efficient,  conscientious,  earnest  and  faithful  in  their  work. 
Funds  expended  were  as  follows:

GENERAL 

The  office  has  functioned  satisfactorily  during  the  period  of  this  report. 
The  duties  of  the  office  have  increased  and  are  partly  enumerated  as  a 
matter  of  interest: 

(1)  The  disbursement  of  about  $200,000.00  in  federal  funds  annually. 

(2)  Accountability    for    from    3    to    4    millions    of    dollars    in    federal 

property. 

(3)  The  keeping  of  individual  property  accounts  for  all  organizations 

of  the  North  Carolina  National  Guard. 

(4)  Submitting   and    approving   requisitions   for    federal   property    re- 

quired by  organizations  of  the  State. 

(5)  Issuing  Bills  of  Lading  and  Transportation  Requests. 

(6)  Duties  as  contracting  officer. 

(7)  Reports  of   Survey,    I   and   I   reports,   etc. 

(8)  The  handling  of  rail  movements  to  and  from  camps. 

(9)  Purchase  gasoline  and  oil  under  Treasury  Department  contracts. 

(10)  Purchase  motor  vehicle  parts. 

(11)  Preparation  of  estimates  for  the  War  Department  covering  sum- 

mer camps  and  other  purposes. 

(12)  Payment  of  caretakers. 

2.  On  September  16,  1940  the  entire  North  Carolina  National  Guard 
was  inducted  into  federal  service  pursuant  to  instructions  of  the  President. 
Under  War  Department  orders  contained  in  Army  Regulations  130-10  all 
federal  property  in  the  hands  of  the  various  units  of  the  North  Carolina 
National  Guard  was  ordered  turned  over  to  the  federal  government  and  this 
involved  a  considerable  task  upon  the  office  of  the  United  States  Property 
and  Disbursing  Officer.  The  federal  property  which  had  to  be  turned  over 
embraced  about  3,800  items  consisting  of  about  72  typed  sheets  of  legal  size 
paper  with  a  value  of  from  $3,500,000.00  to  $4,000,000.00.  In  spite  of  the 
situation  and  the  fact  that  the  stock  records  of  the  undersigned  was  over 
twenty  years  old  during  which  time  various  changes  of  nomenclature  has 
been  made,  every  single  item  for  which  the  State  was  responsible  through 
this  office  as  the  accountable  officer  has  been  accounted  for  and  all  property 
accounts  have  been  finally  settled  with  the  War  Department  without  having 
to  call  upon  the  State  of  North  Carolina  for  refundment  of  a  single  penny. 
This  record  was  made  possible  through  the  fine  cooperation  of  the  unit  com- 
manders and  acknowledgment  of  same  is  gratefully  made. 

The  situation  in  this  respect  is  entirely  different  from  conditions  which 
existed  upon  occasions  when  the  National  Guard  had  been  in  federal  service 


Report  of  The  Adjutant  General  27 

previously  and  on  such  occasions  there  were  considerable  shortages  which 
might  be  expected. 

In  the  matter  of  federal  funds  the  same  conditions  exist  and  suspensions 
in  finance  accounts  are  practically  nil  over  a  period  of  twenty  years. 

3.  Cooperation  on  the  part  of  organization  commanders  and  other  indi- 
vidual officers  and  men  have  made  it  possible  for  this  office  to  satisfactorily 
discharge  the  duties  assigned  and  has  made  the  work  a  pleasure.  In  the 
operation  of  this  office  for  the  period  covered  by  this  report  acknowledgment 
is  made  of  the  fine  assistance  rendered  by  Major  M.  H.  Austell,  F.D.,  N.C.N.G.

2.  The  inspection  will  be  made  a  formal  occasion.  The  primary  objects 
of  the  inspection  are  enumerated  in  paragraph  8,  NGR  48.  The  inspection 
of  the  training  of  the  unit  or  headquarters  will  be  confined  to  objectives 
prescribed  in  the  program  of  the  next  higher  commander,  and  which  should 
have  been  scheduled  previous  to  the  inspection,  and,  in  addition,  such  other 
training  as  the  unit  or  headquarters  commander  may  have  scheduled  pre- 
vious to  the  inspection.  Unit  and  headquarters  commanders  should  be 
prepared  to  demonstrate  the  state  of  training  achieved  in  scheduled  sub- 
jects by  presenting  for  the  inspector  a  previously  planned  and  rehearsed 
schedule,  after  or  during  which  the  inspector  may  ask  to  see  such  phases 
of  the  schedule  repeated,  or  such  other  training  as  has  been  laid  down 
under  schedules  of  the  unit,  as  he  may  desire.  The  inspector  will  base  his 
report  on  these  subjects  and  no  other.  The  planned  demonstration  of  the 
training  of  the  unit  as  a  whole,  including  the  repetition  of  certain  phases 
of  training,  or  other  training  covered  in  schedule,  as  the  inspector  may

any  other  organization,  provided  necessary  arrangements  are  made  with

and  carefully  arranged,  that  the  Inspecting  Officer  may  see  its  general 
condition  and  may  count  and  check  it  easily  and  without  loss  of  time. 
Items  mentioned  on  spot  inventory  will  be  arranged  as  requested  by  the 
Inspecting  Officer.

LIEUTENANT  COLONEL  JOHN  DANIEL  KERR,  JR. 

Executive  Officer,  105th  Medical  Regiment,  North  Carolina 
National  Guard,  at  James  Walker  Memorial  Hospital,  Wilming- 
ton, North  Carolina,  on  March  16,  1938,  is  announced. 

2.  Lieutenant  Colonel  Kerr  was  born  at  Clinton,  North 
Carolina,  March  24,  1884,  and  attended  the  University  of  Mary- 
land, from  which  he  graduated  in  medicine  with  the  class  of 
1908.  He  practiced  his  profession  in  his  native  community 
throughout  the  years  of  his  life  and  his  untiring  service  to  his 
people  and  his  charitable  acts  in  their  behalf  were  outstanding. 
As  a  citizen,  physician,  and  soldier,  his  happy  and  congenial 
disposition,  his  loyalty  to  his  friends  and  to  the  service,  won 
for  him  the  love,  confidence  and  esteem  of  all  who  knew  him. 
Those  of  his  regiment  and  others  of  the  National  Guard  who 
came  in  contact  with  him  recognized  his  ability  as  an  officer 
and  his  faithful  services  to  the  Government,  his  native  State, 
and  to  those  under  his  command.  Lieutenant  Colonel  Kerr  was 
returning  to  his  home  station,  Clinton,  after  having  attended 
the  Annual  Armory  Inspection  of  Company  A,  105th  Medical 
Regiment,  at  the  time  he  received  the  injuries  which  later 
proved  fatal.  A  true  and  loyal  soldier  and  a  friend  has  passed 
to  the  Great  Beyond  and  his  death  is  mourned  by  soldier  and 
civilian.  Sincerest  sympathy  is  extended  his  family  by  this 
department. 

Record  of  Service 

Lieutenant  Colonel  Kerr  entered  the  military  service  on 
June  30,  1917,  as  a  First  Lieutenant,  Medical  Corps,  and  was 
assigned  to  duty  with  the  2nd  North  Carolina  Infantry,  at  the 
time  stationed  at  Goldsboro,  North  Carolina,  which  regiment, 
upon  the  organization  of  the  30th  Division  for  World  War 
service,  became  the  119th  Infantry.  He  served  with  this  regi- 
ment in  Federal  service  throughout  its  training  at  Camp  Sevier, 
South  Carolina,  and  overseas.  He  served  in  the  American  Ex- 
peditionary Forces  from  May  11,  1918,  to  February  2,  1919. 
He  was  honorably  discharged  the  service  upon  his  return  to  the 
United  States  on  February  6,  1919.  Upon  the  organization  of 
the  105th  Medical  Regiment,  North  Carolina  National  Guard, 
he  was  appointed  Lieutenant  Colonel,  Medical  Corps,  February 
1,  1924,  and  assigned  to  this  regiment  as  its  Executive  Officer, 
which  position  he  held  at  the  time  of  his  death.  Lieutenant 
Colonel  Kerr  was  a  graduate  of  the  Army  Medical  Field  Service 
School,  course  of  1931.

4.  All  troops  arriving  at  camps  will  be  met  by  guides  and  taken  to 
their  areas.  Commanding  Officers  of  units  moving  by  rail  or  motor  are

The  Adjutant  General's  Department 

Raleigh,  North  Carolina 

General  Orders  January  16,  1939. 

No.  1. 

1.  The  1939  Annual  Armory  Inspection  of  the  North  Carolina  National 
Guard,  in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of  Section  93,  National  Defense 
Act,  as  amended,  and  letter  NG  333,  45-Gen-39,  Hq  4th  CA,  December  7, 
1938  will  be  conducted,  as  provided  in  Section  II,  NGR  48,  January  18, 
1934,  by  officers  of  the  Regular  Army  detailed  by  the  Commanding  Gen- 
eral, Fourth  Corps  Area.  The  itinerary  and  the  names  of  the  Inspecting 
Officers  are  given  in  paragraph  10  of  this  order.  Time  of  arrival  of  In- 
specting Officers  will  be  transmitted  to  organizations  as  soon  as  practicable. 
Upon  their  arrival,  unit  commanders  will  report  by  phone  or  in  person. 

2.  The  inspection  will  be  made  a  formal  occasion.  The  primary  ob- 
jects of  the  inspection  are  enumerated  in  paragraphs  8,  NGR  48.  The 
inspection  of  the  training  of  the  unit  or  headquarters  will  be  confined  to 
objectives  prescribed  in  the  program  of  the  next  higher  commander,  and 
which  should  have  been  scheduled  previous  to  the  inspection,  and  in  addi- 
tion, such  other  training  as  the  unit  or  headquarters  commander  may  have 
scheduled  previous  to  the  inspection.  Unit  and  headquarters  commanders 
should  be  prepared  to  demonstrate  the  state  of  training  achieved  in 
scheduled  subjects  by  presenting  for  the  inspector  a  previously  planned 
and  rehearsed  schedule,  after  or  during  which  the  inspector  may  ask  to  see 
such  phases  of  the  schedule  repeated,  or  such  other  training  as  has  been 
laid  down  under  schedules  of  the  unit,  as  he  may  desire.  The  inspector 
will  base  his  report  on  these  subjects  and  no  other.  The  planned  demon- 
stration of  the  training  of  the  unit  as  a  whole,  including  the  repetition  of 
certain  phases  of  training,  or  other  training  covered  in  schedule,  as  the 
inspector  may  desire  to  see,  should  not  exceed  the  normal  drill  time. 

3.  Attendance  at  inspection  is  compulsory.  A  report  of  all  absentees 
from  inspection  by  reason  of  unavoidable  causes,  such  as  sickness,  etc., 
will  be  rendered  to  the  Inspecting  Officer.  Absentees  without  leave  of 
absence  or  on  furlough  will  be  dealt  with  in  accordance  with  the  law. 
Officers  and  enlisted  men  temporarily  absent  from  their  home  stations  at 
the  muster  and  inspection  of  their  organizations  may  be  attached,  for 
inspection,  to  any  other  organization,  provided  necessary  arrangements 
are  made  with  The  Adjutant  General  by  the  immediate  commanding  officers 
and  notice  given  the  Inspector  to  whom  they  are  to  report. 

4.  The  inspection  of  personnel  will  be  made  beginning  at  8:00  P.  M., 
on  the  date  named  herein.  Field  and  Staff  Officers  whose  station  is  that  of 
their  respective  headquarters  will  report  for  inspection  with  the  head- 
quarters personnel.  Hours  of  inspection  may  fc-e  changed  after  consul- 
tation between  the  Inspecting  Officer  and  the  unit  commander.  The  or- 
ganization commander,  caretaker,  and  supply  sergeant  to  be  present  at  the

5.  All  property,  arms,  clothing,  and  equipment,  will  be  thoroughly 
cleaned  and  put  in  good  condition.  Sealed  boxes  or  cases  need  not  be 
opened.  Property  in  supply  rooms  and  in  individual  lockers  will  be  neatly 
and  carefully  arranged,  that  the  Inspecting  Officer  may  see  its  general 
condition  and  may  count  and  check  it  easily  and  without  loss  of  time. 
Items  mentioned  on  spot  inventory  will  be  arranged  as  requested  by  the 
Inspecting  Officer. 

6.  All  records  required  by  National  Guard  Regulations,  or  other  War 
Department  authority,  will  be  fully  written  up  and  accessible.  The  files  of 
retained  enlistment  and  physical  examination  papers  of  enlisted  men  for 
the  entire  personnel  at  the  time  of  the  inspection  must  be  conveniently 
arranged  in  case  information  of  this  nature  is  desired.

service  shirt  will  be  worn  under  the  coat.  Officers  will  be  uniformed  the 
same  as  troops  of  their  command  with  saber.  Every  effort  will  be  made  to

announced. 

2.  Lieutenant  McRackan  was  born  in  Whiteville,  North 
Carolina,  October  6,  1908.  He  was  identified  with  the  business

life.  At  the  time  of  his  death,  he  was  in  the  performance  of 
his  duties  as  an  employee  of  the  Tide  Water  Power  Company.

power  line.  Lieutenant  McRackan,  after  graduation  from 
North  Carolina  State  College,  returned  to  Whiteville  and  for 
several  years  was  a  member  of  the  high  school  faculty,  serving 
as  band  instructor  and  teacher.  In  1935,  he  resigned  this 
position  to  become  connected  with  the  power  company  and  re- 
mained with  that  company  until  the  time  of  his  death. 

3.  A  man  and  an  officer  of  sterling  qualities,  pleasant,  and 
happy  of  manner,  both  in  civil  life  and  in  the  performance  of 
his  military  duties,  he  was  liked  by  all  who  knew  him.  His 
popularity  was  attested  by  his  many  friends,  who  with  officers 
and  men  of  the  National  Guard,  with  whom  he  had  contact, 
deplore  his  untimely  death.

No.  6. 

1.  With  profound  sorrow,  the  death  of 

MAJOR  CHARLES  HARDEN 

Quartermaster  Corps,  North  Carolina  National  Guard,  on  Feb- 
ruary 28,  1939,  at  Raleigh,  North  Carolina,  is  announced. 

2.  Major  Barden  was  born  in  England  and  early  in  life  came 
to  the  United  States,  and  has  spent  most  of  his  life  in  and  near 
Raleigh,  North  Carolina.  For  many  years  he  was  in  the  office  of 
The  Adjutant  General,  serving  as  Assistant  to  the  United  States 
Property  and  Disbursing  Officer,  where  he  was  most  capable  in  the 
performance  of  his  duties.  His  interest  in  the  military  service  is 
evidenced  by  the  amount  of  time  he  gave  to  his  duties  as  the  Com- 
manding Officer  of  the  State  Detachment,  which  unit  he  assumed 
command  of  soon  after  its  organization.  Major  Barden,  quiet  of 
disposition,  had  a  determination  to  accomplish  desired  results. 
Strong  of  will,  though  easy  of  manner,  his  ability  as  an  officer  has 
always  been  recognized.  Though  retiring,  never  putting  himself 
in  the  foreground,  he  had  many  intimate  friends  who  recognized 
his  true  merits,  and  to  these  friends  he  was  most  loyal  and  sincere. 
In  his  death,  the  National  Guard  has  lost  a  most  capable  officer 
and  a  true  friend,  and  his  death  will  be  mourned  by  his  comrades. 

Record  of  Service 

Major  Barden  enlisted  in  the  Quartermaster  Corps,  North  Caro- 
lina National  Guard,  April  5,  1917,  as  a  Private,  and  soon  was  pro- 
moted to  a  Sergeant  1st  Class,  and  was  inducted  into  Federal 
service  with   his  organization   for  the  World  War  on  August   5, 

1917.  He  served  overseas  with  the  30th  Division  from  May  28, 

1918,  to  April  2,  1919,  and  was  mustered  out  of  the  service  upon 
his  return  to  this  country,  April  8,  1919.  Following  the  World 
War,  Major  Barden  reenlisted  in  the  newly  organized  State  De- 
tachment, Quartermaster  Corps,  North  Carolina  National  Guard, 
on  March  16,  1921.  He  served  in  the  ranks  as  a  Private  and  in 
the  grades  of  non-commissioned  officers  and  was  discharged  as  a 
Technical  Sergeant  on  September  12,  1921,  to  accept  a  commis- 
sion. He  was  commissioned  a  2nd  Lieutenant  September  13,  1921, 
and  was  assigned  to  the  command  of  the  State  Detachment.  He 
was  promoted  to  a  1st  Lieutenant,  November  15,  1921;  Captain, 
November  26,  1926;  Major,  November  14,  1929,  in  which  rank  he 
served  as  commanding  officer  of  the  State  Detachment  until  his 
death.

1.  With  profound  sorrow,  the  death  of 

LIEUTENANT  COLONEL  WALTER  GLUYAS  CRAVEN 

Finance  Department,  Finance  Officer,  30th  Division,  North  Caro- 
lina National  Guard,  on  June  16,  1939,  is  announced. 

2.  Lieutenant  Colonel  Craven  was  born  in  Mecklenburg 
County,  North  Carolina,  on  March  23,  1881,  and  spent  the  latter 
years  of  his  life  in  Charlotte,  North  Carolina,  as  an  official  of  the 
City  Industrial  Bank.  He  was  always  interested  in  civic  matters 
pertaining  to  his  community,  where  he  was  most  highly  respected 
for  his  honesty,  energy  and  initiative.  As  a  man,  he  was  of  most 
pleasing  address  and  was  blessed  with  a  happy  and  courteous 
disposition.  No  officer  of  the  National  Guard  loved  the  military 
service,  nor  has  been  more  energetic  in  its  welfare,  than  he.  He 
was  truly  an  outstanding  officer,  whose  activities  and  conduct 
could  never  be  questioned.  He  had  a  host  of  friends  who  recog^ 
nized  his  true  merits  and  to  these  friends  he  was  most  loyal  and 
sincere.  In  his  death,  his  community  has  lost  a  valuable  citizen 
and  the  National  Guard  a  capable  officer  and  a  true  friend.  His 
death  is  mourned  by  both  friends  and  comrades. 

Record  of  Service 

Lieutenant  Colonel  Craven  entered  the  military  service  as  a 
Private,  Company  D,  1st  North  Carolina  Infantry,  National  Guard, 
in  July,  1902,  and  having  been  promoted  to  the  grade  of  Corporal 
and  First  Sergeant,  was  made  Battalion  Sergeant  Major  in  1905 
and  Regimental  Sergeant  Major,  July  17,  1908.  He  was  com- 
missioned Captain,  Quartermaster  Corps,  NC.NG.,  April  9,  1913. 
He  is  credited  with  federal  service  as  a  Captain  during  the  Mexican 
Border  troubles  from  June  26,  1916,  to  November  1,  1916,  when 
he  reverted  to  his  National  Guard  status.  He  entered  federal 
service  again  for  the  World  War  as  a  Captain,  Quartermaster 
Corps,  July  21,  1917,  and  served  at  Camp  Sevier,  South  Carolina, 
Camp  Travis  and  Fort  Bliss,  Texas,  and  Washington,  D.  C,  and 
was  discharged  April  2,  1920.  He  was  commissioned  Major, 
Quartermaster  Corps,  National  Guard,  May  11,  1920,  and  was  as- 
signed to  duty  with  the  North  Carolina  State  Staff.  On  November 
26,  1926,  he  was  promoted  to  Lieutenant  Colonel  and  transferred 
to  the  Finance  Department,  being  assigned  to  duty  as  Finance 
Officer,  30th  Division,  in  which  rank  and  position  he  served  until 
his  death.

friends,  and  interested  in  civic  matters,  holding  at  the  time  of 
his  death  the  position  of  Secretary  of  the  Rotary  Club.  In  his 
military  career,  his  ability  as  a  leader,  and  his  knowledge  of 
military  subjects  are  well  known  by  those  with  whom  he 
served.  Those  who  knew  him  as  an  enlisted  man  and  as  an 
officer  of  the  North  Carolina  National  Guard,  as  well  as  his 
many  other  friends,  had  the  highest  regard  and  respect  for 
him.  In  his  death  the  Guard  loses  a  faithful  and  energetic 
officer  and  his  community  an  outstanding  citizen.

1.  It  is  with  sincere  sorrow  that  the  death  of 

1st  LIEUTENANT  WILLIAM  H.  RHODES,  JR. 

Field   Artillery,   North   Carolina   National    Guard,    on   August    24, 
1939,  at  Rex  Hospital,  Raleigh,  North  Carolina,  is  announced.

North  Carolina,  May  25,  1894,  and  entered  the  University  of 
North  Carolina  in  1912,  and  later  attended  State  College  at 
Raleigh.  After  teaching  school  for  a  time  in  Jackson  County,  in 
1919  he  accepted  a  position  with  the  State  Department  of  Agri- 
culture, where  he  became  an  authority  on  crop  statistics  and  con- 
ditions. Lieutenant  Rhodes  was  a  gentleman  of  the  highest  order; 
of  sterling  qualities  and  most  courteous  in  his  manner  and  deal- 
ings. In  his  military  service  he  displayed  an  unusual  interest  in 
his  work  and  his  popularity  was  attested  by  his  many  friends 
among  officers  and  enlisted  men.  These,  with  his  friends  in  civil 
life,  deeply  deplore  his  death.  The  National  Guard  has  lost  an 
energetic  and  most  capable  officer  and  a  true  friend.  Sincerest 
sympathy  is  extended  his  family. 

Record  of  Service 

Lieutenant  Rhodes  entered' the  military  service  as  a  private  at

American  Expeditionary  Force  from  May  26,  1918,  to  February 
4,  1919.  He  filled  the  grades  of  Corporal  and  Sergeant  and  was 
made  First  Sergeant  of  his  Battery,  June  20,  1918;  was  dis- 
charged September  30,  1918,  to  accept  a  commission  and  was 
appointed  Second  Lieutenant,  Field  Artillery,  on  October  1,  1918. 
Upon  return  to  the  United  States  he  was  on  duty  at  Fort  Wash- 
ington, Maryland;  was  honorably  discharged  March  24,  1919. 
Lieutenant  Rhodes  then  accepted  a  Reserve  Commission  as 
Second  Lieutenant,  Field  Artillery,  May  7,  1920;  promoted  to 
First  Lieutenant  June  28,  1924.  April  1,  1926,  Lieutenant 
Rhodes  enlisted  with  the  Service  Company,  120th  Infantry, 
National  Guard,  and  served  in  the  grades  of  Private  and  Corporal. 
He  was  discharged  on  June  5,  1935.  On  June  6,  1935  he  was 
commissioned  First  Lieutenant,  Field  Artillery,  National  Guard,

Section  109,  National  Defense  Act,  the  following  will  govern  appropriate 
duties  for  Field  and  Staff  officers,  N.C.N.G..  to  entitle  such  officers  to  the 
equivalent  of  Armory  Drill  Pay,  as  provided  in  Regulations: 


152  Report  of  The  Adjutant  General 

a.  Brigade  and  Regimental  Commanders:  Army  Extension 
courses,  or  part  or  full  qualification  in  duties  commensurate 
with  their  commands  (exclusive  of  the  "administrative  func- 
tions" specifically  referred  to  in  Section  109,  National  Defense 
Act  and  set  forth  in  paragraph  63,  National  Guard  Regulations 
45)  and/or  conducting  or  attendance  at  schools  and  drills. 

b.  All  other  Field  and  Staff  Officers:  A  minimum  of  5  hours  per 
payroll  quarter,  being  20  hours  total  minimum  per  year,  in 
completion  of  Army  Extension  Courses  and  such  other  equiva- 
lent and  appropriate  duties  (exclusive  of  the  "administrative 
functions"  specifically  referred  to  in  Section  109,  National 
Defense  Act  and  set  forth  in  paragraph  63,  National  Guard 
Regulations  45)  and/or  attendance  at  or  conducting  schools 
and  drills. 

c.  The  minimum  of  twenty  (20)  hours  A.E.C.  work  as  per  sub- 
paragraph b,  above,  will  not  govern  as  to  full  requirements  in 
all  cases.  The  Brigade,  Regimental  or  separate  Battalion  Com- 
mander concerned  will  familiarize  himself  with  the  require- 
ments of  his  officers  and  will  direct,  in  orders,  the  number  of 
hours  of  A.E.C.  work  to  be  accomplished  within  the  quarter 
and  year,  for  each  Field  and  Staff  Officer  of  his  command,  as 
in  his  judgment  is  necessary.  In  other  words,  a  minimum  of 
five  (5)  hours  per  quarter  or  twenty  (20)  per  year  is  only 
prescribed  in  order  to  take  care  of  exceptional  cases  and  except 
in  these  cases  A.E.C.  work  should  be  performed  on  the  basis  of 
full  required  time  within  the  quarter  and  year  or  such  part  of 
the  full  time  as  Brigade  or  Regimental  commanders  concerned 
consider  necessary  to  the  training  of  the  officer.  It  is  con- 
sidered that  the  majority  of  officers  will  require  an  average  of 
fifty  per  cent  (50%)  study  of  A.E.C,  or  more.  A  copy  of  such 
orders  will  be  furnished  the  Instructor  concerned  with  the  pay 
rolls  and  Forms  100,  and  a  copy  to  the  Adjutant  General, 
North  Carolina. 

d.  The  Instructor  concerned  is  requested  to  furnish  information, 
at  the  end  of  each  pay  roll  quarter,  to  the  Brigade,  Regimental 
or  Separate  Battalion  Commander,  as  to  the  number  of  hours 
accomplished  and  the  courses  completed  by  Field  and  Staff 
officers,  whose  A.E.C.  and  pay  roll  he  checks. 

e.  Allowance  of  credits  for  pay,  for  performance  of  other  appro- 
priate duties,  will  be  determined  by  the  Instructor,  who  checks 
and  is  concerned  with  certifying  to  the  pay  roll.  The  following 
are  considered  equivalent  duties: 

(1)  Attendance  at  drills  when  the  officer  takes  some  definite 
part  in  the  drill  or  instruction;  physically  examines  re- 
cruits or  other  substantial  duties. 

(2)  Student  or  Instructor  at  organized  schools,  either  officers' 
or  non-commissioned  officers'  schools. 

(3)  Other  special  military  work  commensurate  with  the  officer's 
grade  and  branch. 

Brigade,  Regimental  and  separate  Battalion  Commanders  hav- 
ing, at  times,  certain  other  appropriate  duties  for  assignment 


Report  of  The  Adjutant  General  153 

to  a  Field  or  Staff  officer  of  his  command  should  advise  the 
Instructor  of  such  assignment. 

2.  Brigade,  Regimental  and  Separate  Battalion  Commanders  will  deal 
directly  with  the  Instructor  who  checks  his  pay  roll. 

3.  The  State  Staff  will  continue  study  of  A.E.C.,  Selective  Service  and 
appropriate  duties  as  now  prescribed  and  any  exceptional  cases  will  be 
handled  by  The  Adjutant  General. 

4.  Six  (6)  hours  per  month  or  eighteen  (18)  hours  per  pay  roll 
quarter  is  the  minimum  requirement  of  appropriate  duties  performed  to 
entitle  the  Field  or  Staff  Officers  to  the  equivalent  of  armory  drill  pay,  as 
provided  in  Regulations.  This  is  based  upon  the  forty-eight  (48)  pay 
drills  per  annum  authorized  by  the  National  Guard  Bureau  for  this  present 
fiscal  year. 

5.  Field  and  Staff  Officers  qualifying  for  pay,  in  full  or  in  part, 
through  duties  performed,  other  than  on  Army  Extension  Courses,  as 
provided  in  paragraph  1,  hereof,  will  report  at  the  end  of  each  month  to 
the  Instructor  concerned,  on  W.D.  Form  107,  the  equivalent  duty  or  duties 
performed  and  the  number  of  hours,  giving  a  detailed  statement  on  Form 
107  as  to  type  or  kind  of  duty  performed. 

6.  All  orders  in  conflict  herewith  are  hereby  rescinded.

hours  in  advance  of  arrival  or  upon  departure  from  home  stations.  This  is

ters immediately  upon  arrival  by  each  regimental  and  by  each  separate  unit

container  packed  with  first  aid  supplies,  to  be  taken  by  them  into  the

nature  of  open  field  operations,  no  member  of  an  officer's  or  enlisted  man's 
family,  or  other  individual  will  be  present  with  him  in  the  concentration 
or  maneuver  areas.

1940.

State  of  North  Carolina 

Adjutant  General's  Department 

Raleigh 

Circular  Letter  February  2,  1938. 

No.  5 

1.  Section  III,  National  Defense  Act,  provides  in  part,  "In  the  initial 
mobilization  of  the  National  Guard  of  the  United  States,  war  strength 
officer  personnel  shall  be  taken  from  the  National  Guard  as  far  as  practicable 
and  for  the  purpose  of  this  expansion,  warrant  officers  and  enlisted  men  of 
the  National  Guard,  may.  in  time  of  peace,  be  appointed  officers  of  the 
National  Guard  of  the  United  States  and  commissioned  in  the  Army  of  the 
United  States";  however,  under  the  National  Defense  Act,  when  a  Federal 
emergency  exists  and  the  President  of  the  United  States  calls  the  National 
Guard  into  Federal  service,  the  National  Guard  reverts  to  Federal  control 
and  War  Department  Mobilization  Plans  provide,  that  on  M  day  the  State 
is  precluded  further  appointment  of  National  Guard  officers.  They  further 
contemplate,  that  any  war  strength  vacancies  which  can  not  be  filled  from 
Inactive  National  Guard  Officers  or  enlisted  men  commissioned  in  the 
National  Guard  of  the  United  States  shall  be  filled  from  other  sources. 

2.  From  the  information  above,  one  can  readily  see  the  advantage  to 
unit  commanders  to  encourage  any  qualified  enlisted  men  of  their  organi- 
zation, whom  they  would  recommend  and  desire  for  their  junior  officers  in 
time  of  an  emergency,  to  qualify  themselves  professionally  by  enrolling 
for  AEC  work  with  the  Instructor  assigned  to  their  unit.  When  the 
candidate  has  completed  the  10  series,  he  should  apply  to  the  Adjutant 
General  of  North  Carolina,  through  military  channels,  for  a  commission 
in  the  National  Guard  of  the  United  States.  Such  commissions  continue 
only  so  long  as  the  holder  is  enlisted  in  the  active  National  Guard.  When 
the  candidate  has  been  commissioned,  he  should  be  encouraged  to  con- 
tinue his  AEC  work  so  that  he  will  be  prepared  for  promotion  and  so  that 
your  organization  may  be  benefitted  by  the  addition  of  another  qualified 
instructor  and  a  source  of  replacement  for  a  peacetime  officer  vacancy. 

3.  Section  58,  National  Defense  Act,  which  establishes  the  National 
Guard  of  the  United  States  provides  "That  in  the  grades  of  first  lieutenant 
and  second  lieutenant  the  number  shall  be  unlimited";  therefore,  if  you 
are  fortunate  enough  to  have  two  or  more  qualified  individuals  whom  you 
would  recommend  and  desire  for  officers  of  your  command,  you  should 
encourage  them  to  acquire  such  commissions.  Where  there  are  more  than 
one  to  a  unit,  they  can  be  carried  in  the  State  pool  for  assignment  in  an 
emergency  and  thus  be  assured  of  service  with  their  friends  in  an  organi- 
zation of  the  North  Carolina  National  Guard. 

4.  Under  existing  regulations,  the  enlisted  personnel  of  the  National 
Guard  promises  to  be  the  most  productive  source  of  officer  personnel  in 
event  of  emergency  expansion;  therefore,  you  are  urged  to  give  the  matter 
serious  thought  and  should  you  have  qualified  material  in  your  command, 
try  to  develop  it  for  such  an  emergency.  Should  there  be  any  questions 
concerning  such  commissions,  that  are  not  clarified  by  AR  130-15  or 
NGR  30.  please  refer  them  to  this  office  which  will  lend  its  fullest  coop- 
eration in  the  matter.

Memorandum  January  6,  1939. 

No.  1 

1.  Commanding  officers  of  units  equipped  with  the  rifle,  in  the 
majority  of  cases,  seem  to  have  failed  to  read  carefully,  or  have  probably 
forgotten,  Memorandum  No.  26,  this  office,  October  15,  1938,  since  replies 
from  only  a  few  have  been  received. 

2.  Memorandum  No.  26  called  for  a  more  active  interest  and  training 
in  marksmanship.  Replies  have  been  received  from  six  units  of  the  120th 
Infantry:  Companies  A,  F,  I,  K,  L,  and  Hq.  Co.  1st  Bn.  None  from  the 
Engineers. 

3.  Having  urged  upon  unit  commanders  some  interest  in  the  Chief  of 
the  National  Guard  Bureau  Indoor  Rifle  Matches,  beginning  this  month, 
entries  have  been  made  only  by  Companies  A  and  C,  Engineers,  and 
Companies  B  and  E  and  Hq.  Co.  1st  Bn.,  Infantry,  or  five  in  all. 

4.  Memorandum  No.  26  stated  facts  and  the  necessity  for  a  definite 
and  constant  training  in  marksmanship  and  called  attention  to  the  firing 
of  the  prescribed  course  for  qualifications.  Judging  from  the  failure  to 
make  reply  as  called  for  and  the  very  few  units  entering  the  Indoor 
Matches,  it  is  apparent  that  this  phase  of  training  is  not  taken  seriously 
by  many  unit  commanders.  The  rifle  units  are  well  behind  those  of  many 
states  in  this  work  which  is  not  at  all  gratifying. 

5.  The  Commanding  Officers  of  the  105th  Engineers  and  120th 
Infantry  are  urged  to  use  every  effort  to  bring  this  phase  of  training  to  a 
higher  standard  of  efficiency  in  the  units  of  their  command  and  to  require 
replies  on  this  subject  to  this  office,  through  their  respective  headquarters.

182  Report  of  The  Adjutant  General 

State  of  North  Carolina 

Adjutant  General's  Department 

Raleigh 

Circular  Letter  March  12,  1940. 

No.  13 

1.  The  retirement  of  Colonel  Adolphe  Huguet  and  his  severance  of 
connection  with  the  North  Carolina  National  Guard  as  the  Senior  In- 
structor the  last  of  this  month  and  the  detail  of  Colonel  Millard  F.  Waltz, 
Jr.,  Inf.  as  Senior  Instructor,  is  announced. 

2.  Colonel  Waltz,  who  has  reported  at  this  office,  was  for  many  years 
an  officer  of  the  New  York  National  Guard  and  was  at  Camp  Wadsworth, 
Spartanburg,  South  Carolina  with  the  27th  Division  prior  to  joining  the 
A.E.F.  during  the  World  War.  He  has  had  much  experience  as  an  In- 
structor of  Reserves.  His  last  assignment,  before  coming  to  us,  was  as 
Executive  Officer  of  one  of  the  Reserve  Areas,  8th  Corps,  with  head- 
quarters at  Columbus,  Ohio.  I  bespeak  for  him  every  courtesy  and  a  close 
friendly,  official  and  personal  relationship  with  the  officer  personnel  of  the 
Guard  as  well  as  with  the  Instructor  personnel. 

3.  Colonel  Huguet,  having  completed  more  than  the  normal  four  year 
detail  to  this  state,  after  a  leave  of  absence,  will  retire  from  active  service. 
Colonel  Huguet  has  served  the  Guard  in  an  earnest  and  interested  manner 
and  has  been,  at  all  times,  ready  to  assist  The  Adjutant  General  in  such 
problems  as  would  arise.  We  have  worked  in  harmony  and  with  a  close 
personal  relationship.  On  behalf  of  the  Officers  of  the  Guard,  I  wish  for 
him  a  long  life  of  health,  happiness  and  pleasure.

NORTH  CAROLINA  IN  THE  PROGRAM  OF 
NATIONAL  DEFENSE 

Within  the  year  1940,  the  serious  and  chaotic  conditions  in  foreign  countries 
have  caused  the  American  people  to  consider,  to  a  greater  extent  than  in 
the  many  years  past,  the  National  Defense  of  this  country.  Though  we  are 
separated  by  many  miles  from  foreign  countries,  it  must  be  realized  that 
the  fast  methods  of  travel  cover  distances  in  a  much  quicker  manner  than 
heretofore.  We  have  realized  that  the  economic  structure  of  the  world  may, 
and  possibly  will,  change  and  such  a  change  necessarily  affects  the  United 
States. 

The  history  of  North  Carolina  is  sufficient  for  the  statement  that  this 
State  has,  in  the  years  past,  placed  itself  in  the  front  lines  in  every  national 
emergency.  The  State  is  today  doing  its  part  in  the  program  of  National 
Defense  and  in  addition  to  the  young  men  being  inducted  through  the 
Selective  Service  System,  it  has  already  provided  a  large  number  of  men 
through  the  induction  of  the  National  Guard  on  September  16,  1940,  at  which 
time  approximately  5,000  men  entered  the  federal  military  service. 

January,  1940,  found  the  North  Carolina  National  Guard,  headed  by  the 
Adjutant  General's  Department,  in  the  transition  from  peace  time  to  emer- 
gency measures,  leading  up  to  the  present  special  training  and  national 
emergency.  In  January,  the  troops  in  North  Carolina  were  completing  a 
special  two  drill  per  week  period  and  an  emergency  seven  day  special  winter 
field  training  period.  This  special  field  training  period  found  the  120th 
Infantry  bivouacked  in  three  training  areas  at  Henderson,  Reidsville,  and 
Concord,  while  the  113th  Field  Artillery  combined  its  courses  and  training 
as  a  regiment  at  Port  Bragg.  The  105th  Engineers  trained  at  Charlotte, 
Salisbury,  and  Morganton ;  the  105th  Medical  Regiment  at  Henderson;  and 
the  105th  Quartermaster  Regiment  at  Winston-Salem.  The  252nd  Coast 
Artillery  split  their  training  into  several  week-end  phases,  training  at  Wil- 
mington, Raeford,  and  Greensboro.  Headquarters  60th  Brigade,  Headquar- 
ters Company  60th  Brigade,  and  the  30th  Signal  Company  journeyed  to 
Macon,  Georgia,  for  their  special  training  with  General  Russell  and  the  30th 
Division  Staff.  The  State  Staff  and  State  Detachment  encamped  at  Raleigh 
and  worked  on  the  details  and   plans  of  Selective  Service. 

Immediately  following  these  camps,  the  North  Carolina  National  Guard 
began  intensive  preparation  for  annual  armory  inspection,  conducted  an- 
nually under  direction  of  the  War  Department,  which,  in  view  of  the  foreign 
situation,  was  more  rigid  than  any  inspections  held  for  a  score  of  years. 

In  March,  three  officers  from  the  State  Staff  attended  Selective  Service 
school  in  Washington,  discussing  with  officers  from  the  entire  country  plans 
and  preparations  for  the  operation  of  Selective  Service  in  view  of  existing 
conditions. 

In  May,  1940,  the  strength  of  the  North  Carolina  National  Guard  was 
increased  from  approximately  3,500  officers  and  enlisted  men  to  approxi- 
mately 4,300  officers  and  enlisted  men. 

The  War  Department  deviated  from  the  usual  custom  of  15  day  camps  of 
instruction  and  the  Guard  went  into  field  maneuvers  for  21  days  during 
July-August,  1940.  This  involved  much  extra  work  in  the  Adjutant  General's 
Department,   as   it   necessitated   a   complete   new   set   of   plans,   details,   and 


Report  of  The  Adjutant  General  293 

estimates  within  a  short  period  of  time.  These  summer  maneuvers  for  the 
North  Carolina  troops  took  place  as  follows:  the  252nd  Coast  Artillery 
trained  at  Fort  Moultrie,  South  Carolina,  while  the  balance  of  the  troops, 
which  are  a  part  of  the  30th  Division,  the  State  Staff  and  State  Detachment 
trained  in  the  Mississippi-Louisiana  areas.  During  this  encampment,  all 
troops  from  this  State  participated  in  extensive  field  training,  which  re- 
minded many  old  timers  of  the  days  of  '16,  '17  and  '18.  The  State  Staff 
devoted  most  of  its  time  to  the  study  of  plans  for  Selective  Service,  which 
it  was  then  realized  would  soon  be  ordered  into  operation. 

Almost  immediately  following  Army  maneuvers,  the  National  Guard  units 
of  North  Carolina  were,  on  September  16,  1940,  inducted  into  federal  service 
as  the  National  Guard  of  the  United  States  in  the  Army  of  the  United  States, 
the  National  Guard  then  passing  from  the  control  of  the  Governor  to  con- 
trol of  the  federal  authorities. 

The  troops  of  this  State,  as  a  part  of  the  30th  Division,  and  our  Coast 
Artillery  Regiment,  were  among  the  first  few  divisions  and  troops  called  into 
the  federal  service  for  the  one  year's  intensive  training.  Though  a  sacrifice 
to  many  officers  and  men,  all,  recognizing  the  prerogative  of  the  President 
of  the  United  States,  acting  with  the  authority  of  Congress  to  call  on  the 
National  Guard  because  of  conditions  confronting  the  country,  entered  the 
federal  service  with  a  very  fine  spirit  and  with  high  morale. 

On  September  16,  the  day  of  induction,  all  units  were  mobilized  at  their 
respective  home  stations  throughout  the  State  and  within  15  days,  all  troops, 
except  the  Coast  Artillery,  joined  troops  from  the  states  of  South  Carolina, 
Georgia,  and  Tennessee,  comprising  the  30th  Division,  at  Fort  Jackson, 
South  Carolina.  The  252nd  Coast  Artillery  proceeded  to  Fort  Moultrie, 
South  Carolina,  with  the  exception  of  one  battalion,  which  is  encamped  at 
Fort  Screven,  Georgia. 

Upon  the  entry  of  the  National  Guard  into  federal  service,  the  Adjutant 
General,  appointed  by  the  Governor,  State  Director  of  Selective  Service  in 
addition  to  his  other  duties,  began  the  organization  of  a  force  preparatory 
to  putting  into  effect  this  system  to  meet  the  requirements  of  the  federal 
government.  The  ordering  of  the  National  Guard  into  federal  service  and 
the  operation  of  the  Selective  Service  System  is  something  new  to  the  entire 
nation  in  times  of  peace.  The  eight  members  of  the  State  Staff,  many  of 
whom  have  in  the  past  made  a  study  under  direction  of  the  War  Department 
of  the  Selective  Service  System  and  having  been  inducted  into  federal  service, 
were  assigned  to  duty  in  this  office  by  the  War  Department.  It  is,  in  this 
fact,  that  headquarters  were  promptly  organized  and  through  which  the 
State  Headquarters  has  been  enabled  to  carry  out  its  work  with  a  reasonable 
degree  of  efficiency. 

During  the  year  1940  North  Carolina  has  had  the  privilege  of  sending 
numerous  officers  to  various  service  schools.  These  officers  made  outstanding 
records  in  these  schools  and  their  knowledge  has  proved  of  great  value  in 
instructing  and  aiding  their  regiments  in  the  present  training. 

Within  the  past  few  years,  through  the  efforts  and  activities  of  the 
Adjutant  General's  Department,  many  communities,  each  of  which  provided 
the  sponsor's  contribution  to  match  WPA  funds,  have  constructed  new  and 
very  fine  armories  to  provide  protection  of  federal  property  and  adequate 
facilities  for  the  training  of  troops.  There  are  now  the  following  cities 
having  new  armories  and  in  addition  thereto  the  cities  of  Warrenton,  Smith-

Even  though  there  is  always  room  for  improvement,  the  Adjutant  General's 
Department  and  the  Headquarters  of  Selective  Service  are  proud  of  the 
smooth  transition  of  the  National  Guard  from  State  to  Federal  service  and 
the  efficient  manner  in  which  the  Selective  Service  System  is  now  function- 
ing. The  combined  office  force  of  both  departments  has  work  diligently 
and  faithfully  in  the  performance  of  all  duties. 

As  we  approach  1941,  the  Adjutant  General's  Department  is  busily  en- 
gaged with  plans  and  preparations  for  the  establishment  of  Home  Guard 
units  to  take  the  place  of  the  National  Guard.  Just  how  many  units  will 
be  authorized  and  where  they  will  be  located  has  not  definitely  been  deter- 
mined. All  that  can  now  be  said  is  that  every  possible  effort  will  be  made 
to  provide  the  State  with  an  adequate  number  of  units  to  take  care  of  any 
emergency.

BRIEF  FOR  CONSIDERATION  OF  JOINT  COMMITTEE 
ON  APPROPRIATIONS 

The  total  amount  requested  by  this  Department  for  the  National  Guard 
of  the  State  represented  minimum  requirements  and  though  the  Budget 
Commission  reduced  a  number  of  items,  which  will  curtail,  somewhat,  our 
activities,  it  is  believed,  with  two  exceptions,  that  by  effecting  economies 
during  the  two  years  the  work  required  can  be  satisfactorily  carried  on. 

The  exceptions  are  as  follows: 

ITEM  No.  203.— SEMI-ANNUAL  ALLOWANCES  TO  ORGANIZATIONS:  It 
is  requested  that  the  Budget  Commission's  recommendation  of  $33,100  be 
increased  by  $1,500  to  a  total  of  $34,600.00. 

a.  This  item  covers  allotments  made  semi-annually  to  sixty  (60) 
units  of  the  National  Guard  to  defray  expenses  of  armory  rent;  heat; 
lights  and  water;  letter  writing  supplies;  postage  and  other  necessary 
expenses. 

Rentals  of  armories  is  a  fixed  expenditure  and  in  no  case  is  the 
rental  less  than  the  State  allotment.  In  the  great  majority  of  cases, 
units  pay  considerably  more  rent  than  the  amount  of  the  allotment 
made  by  the  State,  under  Section  6889,  Consolidated  Statutes  1919.  Coun- 
ties and  Municipalities  augment  this  amount  through  allotments  to  the 
units;  otherwise  the  unit  could  not  exist  and  meet  Federal  requirements. 

b.  Two  new  units  of  the  Guard  have  been  organized  under  direction 
of  the  War  Department,  requiring  additional  allotments  from  this 
item;  which  increases  the  amount  of  expenditures  each  year  of  the  next 
biennium. 

c.  The  Budget  Commission  reduced  our  request  to  the  amount  of 
the  1937-38,  1938-39  figures  of  $33,100;  however;  in  caring  for  the  sixty 
units  in  the  payment  of  the  first  semi-annual  allotments  for  the  present 
fiscal  year,  due  as  of  December  31,  1938,  it  was  necessary  to  request  a 
transfer  of  $810  from  Item  No.  205,  which  was  granted.  This  same 
additional  amount  will  be  necessary  at  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year,  June 
30,  1939.  With  these  facts  before  us,  it  can  be  realized  that  the  request 
for  an  increase  under  this  Item  No.  203  of  an  additional  $1,500  is  neces- 
sary. This  will  make  the  total  of  this  item  $34,600,  or,  $200  less  than 
our  original  request.     This  is  a  very  important  item  of  our  budget. 

ITEM  No.  215.— ALLOTMENT  OFFICERS  AND  SUPPLY  SERGEANTS:  It 
is  requested  that  $365  be  added  to  the  amount  recommended  by  the 
Advisory  Budget  Commission,  making  a  total  of  $22,950. 

a.  This  item  covers  allotments  to  those  officers  having  definite  ad- 
ministrative duties  to  perform  throughout  the  year,  and  is  provided 
for  by  State  laws,  and  is  paid  semi-annually.  The  amount  paid  each 
officer  has  for  several  years  been  less  than  that  authorized  by  law;  and 
in  the  present  fiscal  year  the  amount  is  further  reduced  because  of  lack 
of  funds. 


296  Report  of  The  Adjutant  General 

b.  In  the  organization  of  the  two  additional  units  and  a  Battalion 
Headquarters,  we  have  five  additional  officers  coming  within  this  allot- 
ment, entitled  to  consideration,  and  to  provide  for  them  the  $365  addi- 
tional requested  is  necessary. 

c.  In  the  preparation  of  our  budget  it  was  our  desire  to  increase  the 
amount  payable  to  each  individual  to  a  figure  nearer  that  authorized  in 
the  State  laws,  which  we  feel  is  justified;  yet,  realizing  the  difficulties 
confronting  the  Joint  Committee  we  now  ask  for  only  $365,  making  a 
total  of  $22,950,  the  amount  necessary  to  provide  for  the  recently  ap- 
pointed  officers.

February  6,  1941. 

BRIEF— BUDGET  1941-43 

1.  The  National  Guard  passed  from  control  of  the  Governor  and  Com- 
mander-in-Chief to  Federal  control  upon  induction  into  Federal  service 
September  16,  1940,  yet  there  are  certain  expenses  incident  to  the  National 
Guard  which  must  be  continued.  This  refers  particularly  to  armory  rental 
in  cases  where  armories  are  actually  rented.  There  are  also  the  expenses 
incident  to  the  Adjutant  General's  Department.  There  are  many  matters 
pertaining  to  the  National  Guard  requiring  settlement.  Armories  necessarily 
must  be  maintained  that  upon  return  of  the  National  Guard  to  the  State 
with  its  Federal  equipment,  there  may  be  some  place  available  in  which 
to  house  this  equipment  and  as  quarters  for  the  organization. 

2.  Assuming  that  the  troops  of  the  National  Guard  return  to  the  State 
in  approximately  one  year  as  now  contemplated,  these  troops  would  return 
in  September,  1941.  The  budget  in  question  goes  into  effect  July  1,  1941, 
therefore  the  National  Guard  would  be  back  in  the  State  for  nine  months 
of  the  fiscal  year  1941-42.  It  is  noted  that  the  budget  recommended  by  the 
Budget  Commission  is  approximately  the  amount  of  the  budget  as  expended 
in  1939-40.  It  is  anticipated  that  upon  return  of  the  troops  to  the  State  the 
necessity  for  much  reorganization,  readjustment,  and  possibly  an  increase  in 
the  strength  of  the  Guard  will  require  a  larger  appropriation. 

3.  Though  the  Guard  will  be  out  of  the  State  the  first  three  months  of  the 
fiscal  year  1941-42,  the  State  Guard  or  Home  Defense  Units  will  have  been 
organized  and  necessarily  must  be  taken  care  of  during  the  lifetime  of  this 
organization  and  should  the  National  Guard  not  return  in  the  twelve  months 
time,  in  September  1941,  it  will  be  necessary  to  continue  the  organizations 
of  Home  Defense. 

4.  In  view  of  the  conditions,  it  is  impracticable  to  make  a  fair  estimate 
of  the  needs  of  the  Adjutant  General's  Department  for  the  next  biennium 
and  it  is  requested  that  the  appropriation  recommended  by  the  Budget  Com- 
mission for  the  biennium  1941-43  be  granted  and  that  the  Appropriations 
Committee  recommend  to  the  Governor  and  Council  of  State  an  allotment 
from  the  contingent  and  emergency  fund  to  the  National  Guard  should  such 
extra  allotment  become  necessary  and  at  the  discretion  of  the  Governor. 

5.  Submitted  as  a  matter  of  information  is  the  following,  which  gives 
the  strength,  appropriation,  and  percentage  pertaining  to  appropriations 
made  by  a  number  of  other  states  to  its  National  Guard,  based  upon  the  1940 
appropriations:
