National Guard Bureau
Fights Federal Control
With Press Releases
The National Guard Bureau ap
parently has launched a propaganda
campaign against an inter-service
committee recommendation that
control of the Guard be removed
from the states and given to the
Army.
Although Secretary of Defense
Forrestal pointedly stated that the
recommendation was not “a pattern
for legislative action • • * and does
not. at this stage, constitute mill
tary establishment policy", the bu
reau is taking no chances.
The bureau’s information office
yesterday issued three simultaneous
press releases in line with this pol
icy. The releases were not distrib
uted through the Regular Army or
Defense channels as has been the
case with National Guard announce
ments in the past. They came di
rect from the bureau's own office
and so stated.
The first announcement told how
43 generals of the Regular Army
started in the National Guard, one
of them being a member of the

The American Automobile Associ
ation is bringing to the attention
of its members a “hay fever escape
guide.” Prepared by the Abbott Lab
oratories of North Chicago, 111., the
survey can serve the ragweed pollen
sufferer in mapping vacations for
the weeks between now and frosty
weather.
Those whose eyes begin to itch
and noses clog when the ragweed
particles contaminate the atmos
phere know by experience that re
lief is to be found at sea, and to
some extent at the seashore, in the
woods and in the mountains. The
Abbott survey designates areas in
the interior, as well, where ragweed
is relatively" nonexistent. With
Buffalo, N. Y., arbitrarily rated as
100, the scale ranges from zero at
several places to 140 at Des Moines,
i Iowa.
The belt of north central and
south central States, is the greatest
ragweed pollen offender. The only
large region found to be “absolute
:ly free of ragweed and all related
pollens” lies in western Oregon and
around Puget Sound. However,
pollen counts in other areas rate
zero on the scale. Guided by the
ratings, the AAA is recommending
these areae to hay fever sufferings:
The White Mountains of New
Hampshire, Isle Royale in Michigan,
parts of northern Maine, Nova
Scotia, the Rocky Mountains and
Miami, Fla.
The Abbott Laboratory's map and
data show a number of spots with
zero ratings, although zero does not
mean complete absence of pollen.
California, a large part of Colorado
and western Nevada are among the
zero areas. In the Mexican border
area and in northern Texas are to
be found ratings as low as 1. Much
of Florida also falls in the “ideal”
classification of 5 or below.

committee which concluded that the
State-controlled Guard ahould be
merged with the federally controlled
Organized Reserve Corps Into a
single Federal reserve arm. He is
Lt. Gen. Robert 8. McLain, the
Army’* chief of information, who
started as a private in the Okla
homa Guard.
Then came an analysis of recent
Army promotions. It revealed that
almost 29 per cent of recently com
missioned lieutenant colonels, ma
jor* and captains had been Ouards
men. It also stated that one-third
of the Guardsmen inducted into the
Army at the outset of World War
r
n were officer* by the end of ho*
till tie*.
A third reletse entitled “National
Guard Develops Leaders Nation
wide” stated that one-third of all
ranking military police officers
started in the Guard.
The committee which made tiff
merger recommendation was headed
by Assistant Secretary of the Army
Gordon Gray. The politically pow
erful National Guard Association
has warned that' such a proposal,
if approved by the Military Estab
lishment, would mean a bitter light
