This spirited proclamation, in actuality a eall to revolt, was signed by William B. Ide, of the: Bear Mexico. The a leader Flag uprising aiainst Bear Flag Revolt, eclarioned by Ide’s famous proclamation, was instigated on June 14, 1846, at Sonoma, then headquarters for General] Mariano G, Vallejo. A group of American settlers occupied the city and seized its leading citizens. including General Vallejo. The General was taken to Sutter’s Fort. where he was held prisoner for almost. two months, despite the protests of Sutter himseif. People throughout the will have an opportunity an original copy state to see of Ide’s memorable proclamation When the His-'} torical Caravan now being sembled by the California tennials Commission extensive tour within a few weeks. The settlers, under such leaders as Ide, Ezekie] Merritt, Robert Semple, John Grigsby and William Knight, proclaimed the ‘California Republic: A crude flag was raised at Sonoma. This flag was tl basis of the present bear flag. The original bear flag, property of the Society of California Pioneers, was destroyed in the San Francisco fire of 1906, Within a month the Bear Flag Revolt and the California Republic came to an end. Most of those who had organized the movement enlisted in the California Battalion ‘under the command of Captain John C. Fremont. On July 7 of that year, Commodore John Dp. Sloat raised the flag of the United States at Monterey. This action, following closely the Sonoma incident, Paved the way for all of California and adjacent territory to come under the protection of the Stars and Stripes, The asCenbegins an rare proclamation has been added to the large collection of historical objects and chronicling California’s that wil] comprise the Ide’s proclamation was Teaned to: the Commission by Sutter’s Fort Historical Museum in Sacramento, papers heritage mobile ex-% National. Guard Training Will Be Streamlined The Nationa] Guard, together with the rest of the\.Nation, believes that the sooner it. becomes strong and fully trained, the greater the chances for “world peace, It is an old adage, but.a thoroughly proved one, that ag» gressors hesitate strong. When the National Guard was first reorganized after the war, the outlook was for a long period of peaceful development. The sixyear training program established for the Guard was considered adequate, #: With postwar conditions came the realization that the training program must be stepped up. The National Guard has now streamlined its training program to fit present world conditions. Instead of a. six-year program, Guard MOVING Local or Long Distance HOUSEHOLD GOODS -BOUGHT AND SOLD STORAGE Agents for LYONS Reliable Transfer & Storage Grass Valley Phone 39 Hills Flat (Political Advertisement) Cy ~ W I yee Bent! 1 . to attack thef units will in three years. Developed by the National Guard Bureau, the Army Field Forces, and selected officers from complete training the States, the new program in effect aims to do in three years what formerly would have taken just twice that. The new training program goes into high gear in the fall when more than 300,000 field-hardened Guardsmen in some 4,500 Federally recognized Army units throughout the Nation get down to the year’s armory training. 3ased on a three-year enlistment, the new program involves simultaneous training men at the several levels af proficiency which are characteristic f° the average Guard unit including. tried veterans, semi-trained men and raw recruits. Under the new program, the first hour of the weekly two hou armory training period will devoted to general training-as a unit. During this period the men will get. practical instruction -in the team-work Which is. essential to the modern military unit. During the second: hour of. the weekly training period, the men are divided: into specialist groups for intensive training in the in« dividual roles they will play in the unit’s operations. These groups are also separated into the one, two, and three year levels so that instruction does not have to be repeated to men who have already taken it. Under the new training program, the efficiency of instruction will be stepped up bécause spécialist training will be given simultaneously to the separate groups be rather than ess'vev to all men .

All training will be concentrated on the minimum essential subjects needed to prepare. the Guard for its M-DAY mission. The summer field training program, under the new plan, will
be designed to test the year’s armory instruction under practical field conditions. One feature of the new program, emphasis on the production of more Company Headquarters specialists, is calculated to remove most of the present administrative load from the company commander, giving him more time for training his outfit for its combat function. Uniform training programs will be prepared for each type of unit. All units . of the same type will conduct the same number of training hours in the Same essential subjects establishing a minimum. standard of training for the National Guard as a whole.
