OFFICER
REJECTS FOREIGNERS
Corporal Says All Recruits
Must Be Able to Read
and Write.

Because they were unable to read
and write English, Mike Baranski, a
Russian who had served in the Rus
san army, and Antony Leonardo, an
Italian. were rejected for enlistment
by local Recruiting Officer Abbott.
Both were anxious to become Ameri-
can soldiers and left the station much
disappointed.
Through a twelve-year-old boy, who
interpreted for him the Italian, Leon
ardi, told Corporal Abbott he had
wanted to become an American soldier
ever since he came to this country. AL
though he could get the meaning from
simple passages written in English
Leonardo could not pronounce the
words, and was able to use only a few
English words.
Two reasons are generally given by
foreigners who apply for positions in
the army, according to Abbott. 1t
gives them a chance to improve their
education. Foreigners who have suffi-
cient knowledge of the language to be
admitted to the army, then receive
training at the posts and barracks
during the winter months. By the time
their period Of service has expired
they have the fundamentals of an ed
ucation which will enable them to rise
above their fellow countrymen who
have spent the same length of time
working in the bitches and quarries.
Soldiers in the United States army
are better housed, fed and clothed
than those of most any other army in
the world, said Corporal Abbott, which
also is an inducement to the foreign
ers. These men are more saving than
the American born soldier and will
save large part of their pay during
their three years in the service, which
enables them to start up in some kind
of business for themselves.
