Disagree with Dr.. Wiley.

DR.. Harvey w. Wiley has few friends
among the District men since no ad-

ting down of the soldiers rations. Not
long ago DR.. Wiley, in an interview,
said: Tho most striking feature OF the
Army and Navy ration is the great ex-
cess Of food beyond the physical re.
quirements OF the soldier or sailor"
The doctor went on to say: Il am fully
convinced that our soldiers would be
better or II one-third Of the food issued
to them were cut out" Friends back
home sent clippings of the interview to
the men in camp, and DR.. Wiley and his
ideas have been the theme OF varied and
lurid comment ever since. It's all very
work harder than sitting in highly
polished swivel chair to say people eat
too much: but they are willing to wager
that II the doctor came out to camp
