Increased employment is the cause of a 10 per cent drop in National Guard enrollment for the .annual summer encampment, Adjt. Gen.

Elmer F.

The encampment, to be held Aug. 1-15, coincides with the second army maneuvers. Advance details are to rove in late this week. Adjt. Gen. Straub said that to stimulate interest in the camp and to insure leaves of absence for men regularly employed, he had asked William H. Book, Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce executive vice president, to communicate with other Chambers of Commerce in the state, asking them to urge employers to give guard members permission to be away during the camp period. Responses to this request were satisfactory, the adjutant general ~~*1 and on basis of the letters he had received, he hoped the Indiana list might be swelled.
