General March disclosed that thirteen , American tank battalions equipped with the French light type of tank and four training companies equipped with the British heavy type, are in France.

COMPLETE HISTORY ASSURED

U. S. to Have Hour-to-Hour Narrative of Its Part in World War. Washington, November 25. —The history of the operations of the American army in France will be written with a detail never possible in any prevlpus war. Provision for obtaining the most intimate information of the action of each unit of the army was made by the wa'r department in ordering “war diaries” to be kept by designated officers of each unit. The information thus obtained, Gen. March, chief of staff, said Saturday would provide a day-to-day and hour-fo-hour history of the war so far as the American expeditionary forces are concerned. “The historical public narrative,’’ General March said, "will be so complete that it will be impossible for anybody to add to it. It will be a day-by-day and hour-by-hour record of all actions until demobilization.”

PROBLEM OF STATE GUARD

Governor to Present Question at Governor’s Conference. When Governor Goodrich goes to Washington to -attend the Governor’s readjustment conference, December 16-18, one of the problems he will lay before the conference is what the states are to do about state military forces, now that the obliteration of the national guard and state militia seems imminent. It is possible that the next legislature may be called on to make some provision for a state police or constabulary to replace the militia, which some believe also may not be • continued beyond the time when peace is restored. ♦ The annual Inspection of the state militia is now in progress under the direction of Colonel Charles Garrard.
