The attendance on the meeting of the National Rifle As¬ 
sociation promises to be larger than ever before. The 
board of directors of this organization now consists of 
the Adjutants-General of each State and Territory; 36 
members elected by the Association; 10 honorary life 
directors; 3 army officers appointed by the .Secretary of 
War; one naval officer and one marine corps officer 
appointed by the Secretary of the Navy, and one rep¬ 
resentative from each affiliated State Association, elected 
by that Association. General James A. Drain, who has 
for the past three years been president of the National 
Rifle Association, has announced his intention to retire, 
and his successor will be elected at this meeting. Sev¬ 
eral new members of the executive committee are to be 
elected, and important questions concerning the policy 
of the Association in the future will come up for settle¬ 
ment. Most important of these is the one affecting the 
future of the National Rifle Association matches. It is 
more than likely that the directors will recommerid that 
hereafter these matches be conducted by the National 
Board for Promotion of Rifle Practice in connection with 
the national matches authorized and supported by Con¬ 
gress, which are now conducted by that Board. 1 he 
National Rifle Association will also indorse the bill for 
school boy and civilian rifle practice recently introduced 
by Representative Hull, Chairman of the House Com¬ 
mittee on Military Affairs. 
The National Board for Promotion of Rifle Practice, 
which meets the following day, is appointed by the 
Secretary of War, under authority of Congress, and con¬ 
sists at present of Assistant Secretary of War Robert 
Shaw Oliver, President; Capt. H. C. Learnard, U. S. 
A.; Capt. Dickinson P. Hall, U. S. M. C.; Lieut.-Com. 
Leigh C. Palmer, U. S. N.; Gen. C. H. Harries, D. C.; 
Gen. Bird W. Spencer, N. J.; Gen. Lawrason Riggs, 
Md.; Gen. C. A. Wagner, Mich.; Lieut.-Col. A. B. 
Critchfield, Ohio; Gen. Charles A. Kelly, Colo.; Mr. J. 
A. Haskeil, New York; Gen. C. F. Roe, New York; 
Gen. P. F. Wanser, N. J.; Gen. G. W. Wingate, New 
York; Gen. Tas. Drain, Washington; Gen. E. C. Young, 
Illinois; Gen. E. C. Dill, Maine; Col.. Roy Hoffman, 
Oklahoma; Col. John Caswell, Mass., and Major E. 
Claude Goddard, Pennsylvania. 
The report of Col. R. K. Evans, U. S. A., executive 
officer of the last national matches, will be considered 
by the National Board, and possibly some changes will 
be made in the rules governing the national match. The 
board will also consider the time and place of holding, 
the annual matches for 1910. It is unlikely that any 
place other than Camp Perry, Ohio, will be considered 
at this time. The proposition that the Government should 
bear the entire expense of the national matches, which is 
now divided between the Government and the States, will 
be submitted to the National Rifle Association, and if 
endorsed by the directors of that organization, will 
doubtless be approved by the National Board. 
The National Militia Board, which meets the same 
week, was authorized by Congress at the time the Militia 
Division was created in the War Department. This will 
be its second annual meeting, and many matters of joint 
interest to the Army and National Guard will be con¬ 
sidered.
