A MARINE CORPS CANTON
MENT, Nov. Although the Lewis
machine gun with which the ma
rine corps machine gun companies
in training here are equipped weighs
only q pounds and can be handled
by one man in a charge, each gun
has a carriage on which it is carried
on a long march.
The carriage also carries many
boxes filled with the round maya
zines in which ammunition is stored
and a tripod on which the gun may
be set up in fairly permanent posi-
tons. II is a two-wh eeled, rubber
tired contrivance, that can be pulled
at great speed over the toughest
ground. One marine corps man has
invented a motor for prOpelling ma
chine-gun carriages, but the gun it
self is so light that the motor has
not been generally adopted.
Once set up the machine gun can
hold back an entire company Of in
fantry so long as il has ammunition.
In the trenches machine gun en-
placements are fixed at regular IN
tervals along the line and arranged
in such a way that their fire cris-
crosses. Under such fire nothing can
live. Machine gun officers say one
