Itartlsjaa oa Retired List,
General John C. Hartlgan, formerly ad
Jutant general of the Nebraska National
Guard, has been placed on the guard re
tired list at his own request. The order
of retirement has been Issued by Adju
tsnt General Ernest K. Phelps. General
Hartlgan enlisted In the Nebraska Na
tional Guard In MOT and has served
captain, major, colonel and adjutant gen
eral. The law provides for the voluntary
retirement of guardsmen who have served
ten years In the organised mllltla. Form
erljr the law required fifteen years' serv
ice, and any time served In the volunteer
: service of the United States waa to be
counted double. This law enabled former
adjutant generals who were soldiers of
the civil war, Including General A. V,
Cole, General J. D. Gage and General J.
31. Culver, to be retired. It waa rumored
that the law waa passed In that form to
prevent former General P. It Barry from
being placed on the retired list, but Gen
eral Barry's civil war record combined
with his service In the guard exceeded
I the fifteen years by one month and he
: was placed on the retired list.
