active'' are substituted for the words ``number of enlisted men in
active service''. The words between the eighth and ninth semicolons of
32:22, relating to horses and draft animals, are omitted as obsolete,
since no animals are now authorized for the National Guard. The words

apportioned.
In subsection (b)(1) and (2), the words ``actual and'' are omitted
as surplusage.
In subsection (b)(2), the words ``Reserve Officers holding
commission in the National Guard'' are omitted as covered by the words
``officers of a * * * reserve component of the Army or the Air Force''.

Department General Staff'' to conform to section 3031(b) of title 10.
In subsection (c), the words ``under sections 251 and 252 of title

37'', since allowances for subsistence and quarters are now covered by
those sections. The words ``shall be paid from appropriations for the
National Guard, but not from the allotment of a State or Territory,
Puerto Rico, the Canal Zone, or the District of Columbia'' are
substituted for the words ``shall constitute a charge against the whole

shall be paid therefrom and not from the allotment duly apportioned for
any particular State, Territory, or the District of Columbia''.
