Governor, Back From Wash.
ington, Says Order Splitting
Up Brigade Done for Mili-
iary Efficiency.
(From a 8tatt Corrponlnt.)
Lincoln, Neb., Oct 1. (Specials
Governor Neville, who returned from
Washington today, said he believed
splitting up the Nebraska brigade and
assignment of the regiments and com
panies to other parts of the army was
in the interest of efficiency and that
Nebraska' had fared as well as other
states in the assignments.
The reorganization of the army, ac
cording to information received by
the governor, was necessary along
new lines. The new organization
called for radical changes to meet
modern warfare and Nebraska has an
opportunity to make good now as well
as before.-
The governor obtained some first
hand information regarding the draft
and the methods to be used in the
future ;
It is proposed to use the follow
ing plan: ,
All drawn in the draft will be ex-
amined as soon as possible. The whole
, unit will be divided into classes. For
instance,' Class A will be men who
claim no exemption; Gass B will be
' men who claim exemption because of
' dependent relatives, but have no agri
cultural exemption; Class C may be
men claiming agricultural exemption,
Class C may be men claiming both
agricultural and dependency, exemp
tion, and ao on.
When needed Gass A will be called
first and that class completed before
the next class is called. In that way
the departmetn will know exactly
how many men it has and what it can
depend upon.
