TRAINING CAMPS HELD
TO BLAME FOR DEATHS
Charges Made Recruits Are Not Re
ceiving Humane Treatment
in England.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
LONDON, November Charges that
men and boys in England's training
camps are not receiving humane treat
ment and that many deaths are result
ing from bad feeding and poor shelter
are causing great indignation. The
complaints recall charges Of criminal
neglect that were made against mill
tary authorities responsible for condi-
tions at mobilization centers in the
United States during the Spanish
American war.
Some of the charges against the Brit
ish war office have been put into
specific form. A letter written by E.
H. Bailey of bennington Spa, whose
son enlisted from Oxford September
19, and died from pneumonia on the
training grounds on Salisbury plains,
has been made public. From it Is
taken the following story:
In the course of his training the
young recruit wrote to his father Oc-
tober he said:
I'VE. of course, are stiff and suffer
from bad feet. but we should not mind
these discomforts if they would only
feed US properly. Today the food was
slightly better. but it was not cooked.
None of Us has had a square meal since
we left home-or a cup of tea What
they call tea is colored water dosed
with salt The clothes they have given
US are rotten and tear a. the slightest
! strain. All the buttons hang on by a
thread or two. This afternoon about
100 Of the 500 that were drilling had
their trousers split from end to end"
The following day he wrote on
postcard:
Am still living. feeling damp at
night; no board floors in the tents
yet"
The last letter, October 5, stated:
Regarding the food problem, the
same thing has happened again. The
camp grumbles. and so would any one
| if they had five hours drill and no
food I hope to come home for Christ
mas, but please have plenty of food"
No further letters came, but October
| 10 Mr.. Bailey received word to visit
| his son in q military hospital at Bris-
tol. He was fortunate enough to arrive
some hours before death occurred. The
boy was full of gratitude for the kind
ness of the hospital staff. but bitterly
condemned the lack of preparation for
| the men, the damp tents and scanty
and badly cooked food supply.
This is but one of a number of deaths
: in the training camps, and the proper
! clothing and housing of the men is
proceeding all too slowly, according
to critics. in view of the coming win
i ter.

Examples Are Cited.

"A few examples of such cases NAV
be of interest, and the following cases
are cited:
Ihe body of man, supposed by the
police to have been that of a murder
ed soldier, was found in San Francisco
AS it was impossible to identify the
pody from the data furnished this Of
nee, the military authorities at San
francisco were directed to take finger
prints of the dead man. Upon receipt
OF the finger prints in this office it
was discovered that the body was that
OF soldier supposed to be serving in
the Philippine Islands. 1t was learned
later, however, that he had deserted
about six weeks before his body was
found.
"a body, believed to be that of a SOL
dier. was found near Texas City, Tex,
but the medical officer who examined
the body reported that owing to the
decomposition of the body following
long exposure no proper Identification
could be made, and that on account of
the wrinkled condition of the fingers
no satisfactory finger prints could be
obtained.
The medical officer ingeniously made
separate gutta-percha Impressions of
each finger of the dead man, properly
labeled the impressions and forwarded
them to this office. They were arrang-
edy here in the order in which they
would have appeared on the finger
print form, were classified and the
identity of the dead man was estab-
lished beyond doubt.

Thief Is Identified.

The commanding officer of a post
on the Pacific coast forwarded to this
office Photographic copy of the i'm

having been made on a piece of glass
by person who broke into a building
at the post. Several men were named
as suspects. and it was promptly deter
mined definitely that one of the sus-
poets was the man whose finger made
the impression on the glass.
"It is undoubtedly true that the use
of finger-print records and photographs
has deferred criminals from attempting
to enter the army for the purpose of
escaping detection and arrest by the
civil authorities"
