All arms, equipment and other property furnished to organizations of this State
shall, when required by the Adjutant General, or a commanding officer of any such
organization be deposited in the armory of the said organization, and failure to
deposit as aforesaid any article of such property by the person to whom it was issued,

Adjutant General or of the proper commanding officer as aforesaid, in the same

Adjutant General.]
