FOR SOLDIERS IN CAMP
"Aldershot Plan to Entertain Men
at Mobilization Centers Adopted
by "Morals Board"

The "Altershot PLAN of providing
base ball, boxing. basket ball, track and
field meets. foot ball and other ath-
letics at the army mobilization camps
is to be followed in this country, ac-
cording to an announcement by the
morals board" headed by Raymond B.
Fosdick. Y. NJ. C. A. worker. Singing
theatricals provided. This is to be done
with a view to fighting the influence of
the saloon and immoral conditions at
mobilization centers.
Another feature of the recreational
programs will be bayonet competitions.
There is grim purpose back of that. The
fields in France have seen the greatest
use ever made of cold steel, and it is
vital that the American soldiers be at
least the equals in skill and strength
of their German opponents when they
meet. The committee hopes to develop
personal interest among the men in
proficiency in bayonet exercises through
employing it as sport BETTING sol
diers.
Singing also will be encouraged among
the troops. Usually every battalion or
smaller unit organizes a glee club Of
its own as the men come to know one
another; but the committee hopes,
through the aid of choral societies in
various cities, to develop larger cho-
ruseS.
Already theatrical concerns are vol
unteering their aid to the committee in
providing amusement for the men,
There is no doubt that the use of play
houses will be given free for that pur-
pose and that touring theatrical COM
panies will visit the soldier camps.
Moving picture films will also be en-
ployed widely. The troops Will be kept
in touch in that way with the work of
other camps and with conditions among
American or other forces at the fight
ing front.
Thirteen community organizations. de-
signed to bring the officers training
camps in close touch with the citizens
of the cities or towns near which they
are located already have been formed,
and that effort to make each communi-
ty feel direct responsibility for the big
divisional camps near it will be ex-
tended and elaborated in many ways
when the troops are modified.

ON THE FUEL SITUATION

NJ b. Cutter president of the

rived this morning from his home in
Minneapolis He came from Reno
in the private car, Mzpah. Mr..
Cutter. when asked about fuel con
ditions, made the statement that
the fuel question throughout the
United States is very serious one.
He believes that the people have
not given it sufficient thought and
consideration. On account of labor
and transportation conditions a
much smaller amount of coal is be-
ing mined than the market requires.
With cold weather approaching
much suffering will probably ensue
and the question has become one
Of great seriousness.
While in Reno yesterday he or.
dered all of the gondolas owned by

being used by the Southern Pacific,
