A substitute for the relief ' provision directs that guardsmen having dependent families should be discharged at once. . The senate committee also elimi nated the provision that the' militia men ti be drafted into the regular service should serve "not exceeding three years," thus providing that they shall remain in service "for the period of the emergency." As passed the measure' stands virtually as it first was introduced in the house. Senator Chamberlain, chairman of the committee, announced he 'would report the amended resolution later today and would ask unanimous con sent for its immediate consideration and adoption. The committee was practically unanimous in voting to eliminate thr $1,000,000 relief section.
