AUSTIN, June 7.—The training of
thousands of men for military service
in great cantonments, camps and the
schools of instruction within its bor
ders places Texas among the foremost
state's of the* Union in military activ-1
ity since the United States entered j
the war.
There are approximately 40 camps
and schools of military instruction in
the state.
Educational institutions of Texas are
contributing their share in tniltnry ac
tivities. The University of Texas is1
one of the six institutions in the|
United States selected by the govern
ment as a training school in military
aeronautics. A reserve officers’ train
ing corps also hits been established
at the university and courses itt naval
architecture tire being taught, la ad
dition a school of automobile and ra
dio mechanics witli a capacity of ap
proximately J.nllO students is being
conducted under government supervi
sion.
Texas has aproximately 80.0(a) men
in military service. Thirty-five thou
sand of these are volunteers and 45,
O00 have been drafted. Of the total
approximately 76,000 are in the army,
2,500 in the navy and 1,500 ate ina
tines.
Upwards of 2,500 Texans have been
comissioned in tlie army.
Practically 100,000 Texans in the se
lective service are waiting to be called
to training camps.
A new national guard of two brig
ades of cavalry of three regiments
each and a brigade of infantry is
being recruited. The new guard will
have 12.750 men and 500 officers.
When organization is completed the
guard may he federalized and placed
j on the Mexican border to relieve the
I regulars now there. Texas has 000
miles of international border.
The activities of Texas have not
} been confined strictly to a military
; sense, however. Although more than
fifty counties in the state have been
drought-stricken for upwards of two
years, a campaign for more food end
food production stimulated activities
to such an extent that many thou
sands of war gardens and hundreds
of acres of previously unprodilctire
ground are being cultivated, Hopes
have been raised because of bounteous
rains in several sections of the dr t ht
iuta.
Women of the state have contribu
ted $1,000,000 in the first drive for
funds made by that organization.
Texas hus invested more than
$188,900,000 in Liberty Bonds. The
state subscribed $42,304,250 in the first
Liberty Bond campaign, $66,045,250 in
the second campaign and more than
$80,000,000 in the third campaign.
In Y. M. C. A. work, Texas, because
of the vast number of men in training
within its borders, shows unusual ic
t.ivity. The state has contributed $6*7
000 ni two drives for the Y. M. A
funds. Fifty Texans are in the activt
service of the Y. M. C. A. in France
it was estimated here, while withii
the state more than sixty building!
for the entertainment and condor
of the soldiers are being maintained
In addition to these there are a mmi
her of mobile Y. M. C. A. units cou
I stantly traveling the border house:
; in small motor trucks giving cut a
:• tainment and service to the men oi
:• border duty.
:• Texas also has contributed libi rail:
•: to every plan that makes for th
:• comfort and enjoyment of soldier
:j abroad and at home. Libraries hav
been stripped of many choice volume?
•:< that soldiers on the western iron
might have interesting reading.
A law has been enacted creating
prohibition zone of ten miles aroun
£ all military camps or places wbor
soldiers are stationed. A so-c:ille
“loyalty law” makes it a felony ft
anyone to commit a disloyal act t
g give utterance to unpatriotic word
' and still another act forbids ill
teaching of German in primary an
grade schools.
