AMERICAN FIELD HEADQUARTERS.
oct 2l
The training of young American officers
that witnessed in II special camp today
has a Hrimmer seriousness and intent than
I can Imagine anything of the sort could
assume at Plattsburg. Fort Sheridan or any
similar camp In America. There Is. first.
the psychological reason that these en-
bryo leaders of the Sammees in the ranks
are receiving instruction upon the soil OF
France and that the environment surround
ing them smells more Of real war than
would be possible 5000 miles away across
blue water. There is also something OF
that Inspiration and quality coming from
contact with tho French people: those IN
horizon blus about them; those in civilian
clothes who are doing their hit hehnd the
lines. For France stands out among all
natl Sns that are taking part in this war
as an example in devotion, courage ana
iortitude beyond compare
In this school of which I write several
hundred embryo officers are doing every
thing and learning everything that the
elllsted man has to perform and bringing
It TO Il degree OF perfection ere he can be
truly listed as Il soldier Of modern warfare.
There Is nothing of the Nd-glove, nreside,
easy-chair side Of their work. and when
taps sound at night, their unframed muscles
ache. and the Coz is welcome thing.
There is nothing either of textbook courses
or of dgnihed drills. It's practical hustle
from morning TO night. They are digging
trenches, learning the use Of machine guns
and V. r. rifles. throwing live grenades.
dscharging service shells. going through
attack formation and Dhbug imaginary
Boches In the eye, the throat. the heart
and the stomach taking gas tests, going
through every phase of hard work that
involves trench warfare.
- There is an old regular army adage that
any sort of man physically ht can he
rounded into a soldier, but that the Of
fcers are especial creatures endowed from
the gods. This, as many an ancient belief
that existed In the days of civilized in-thc-

stand why after seeing them at work. For
they are the pick OF the home training
camps coming from every branch OF pro-
fessional life. university graduates. former
army enlisted men, patriotic sons OF pa
triotic and wealthy fathers. Intellect Is
written all over their physiognomies. AS
sure as shootin'. they'll deliver the goods"
Company formation Is preserved among
them exactly as II they were enlisted men.
Each company Is split into two classes of
about seventy-fve men each, and, TO facili-
tate identification in instruction, every man
wears u broad band around his service hat
these ribbons denoting the particular branch
of warfare IN which he is specializing, for
there arc special well as general classes
II is General Bullard's intention to
have this first lot Of men act as instructors
for their fellows to follow. And a point
noted with genuine pleasure was the alb
solute cordality between the British, French
and American officers, those instructing and
those being instructed. They were truly
one family and truly working together
as brothers and allies in great cause
The stuff they showed me BODIES i'll for the
barbarian Bochc, for which the gods be
praised
Before leaving for headquarters. General
Buard drove me some miles away To- a
special school, where American aviation
mechanics are receiving instruction from
French experts. Courses in repairing all
kinds Of airplanes are in progress, including
| the practical rebuilding Of "A fighting or OBJ
servation plane. The work at this school
| consists Of text books and lecture instruc-
| tion in the afternoon. with practical work
| IN the forenoon. This practical work con-
| sstS in part of the removal from machine
| by French expert of some important or
| unimnortant part, which the American has
| to find as missing. and mprovise or rein
| sert into position. Every imaginary trouble
| that can coi1e to an engine Is deliberately
| created. and the student has to locate the
| trouble and master it, The French instruc-
| tors are high In praise of American aptness
| as shown In this school and several told me
| that. as mechanics, "les Americans" were

MuZzILNG THE BANDITS.

Tho announcement is made from
Washington that all things are now
ready 10 begin the campaign against
extortion and the oppression of pro-
ducer and consumer under the guise
Of legitimate business. Inasmuch as,
next to the law OF supply and demand,
we must look 10 honest dealings from
those who buy and sell what we must
have, any plan which promises To re-
strict improper boarding and spccula-
tion at the expense Of those who pro-
ducc and those who consume must be
worth trying. The scheme Is for the
president TO install a system OF IL
censcs for those who deal largely in
these products, thus enabling him to
hold an effective club over those who
are disposed 20 rob the people. Incl
dcntally, Of course, 1t Is expected that
this plan viii go far toward restor-
Ing "A level Of prices for the neces-
sarics Of life that are consistent with
supply and demand instead Of leaving
their fluctuations 10 the mercies Of
market manipulators.
We doubt If the president accom-
plishes what he Is after. but we be-
lievo he Will bring about some good.
A great deal depends on the good
judgment with which he dispenses
justice and equity. Nothing that
tends 10 smother or dishearten hon
est business IS going TO benefit the
country. on the contrary such
course would do incalculable harm.
But desperate diseases require des-
perate remedies, and we are In n di-
lemma where we are willing to trust
the welfare OF millions in the hands
of one man. Let US hope and pray
that this lone man may act wisely and
justly so far as IL Is In the power of
n human being to do Despite the
law Of supply and demand. we are
having 10 pay such prices for com
mon necessities as moves the ma ajorlty
of us to believe that somebody some
where Is making unreasonable piCfits
at our expense. And 1t Is not the
producer. for he Is being held to com
parativcly low rewards for his toll.
Especially Is the presidents move
welcome in the case Of the meat pack
ers, for even Mr.. Hoover has prac-
tically acknowledged that he is pow
erless 10 curb them because they
could not possibly make the supply
equal the demand. We do not look
for an economic utopia because Mr..
Wilson has put his hand to the plow.
hut we are hoping for better things
and waiting to see what artificial
restraint can do to put stop to the

IT'S well enough to say the past Is ancient
history and dead
Yet every yesterday returns to cheer OF taunt
us where we tread.
On wha. is past our loves are built from
bygOne worth we reap our praise,
Today We are the sum Of all the good ana
bad Of yesterdays.
We cannot bury In the night the cowardice
that we have shown
The trick By which we win today tomorrow
will be clearly known;
We are today what we have been, not what
we pledge ourselves 10 be,
The future II the hidden book, the past is
all that mortals see.
Men Judge the promises We make by promises
that we have made;
The credit OF man depends upon the debts
that he has paid.
And ever ~ we march along the judgment
Of the world We find
ia founded ON the good aud bad, the false and
true we leave behind.
friend Is one who has been kind not
merely one who Is TO be,
We cannot leave our sins behind and start
each day from blcmsh free
We stand upon our yesterdays, tomorrow
We must face the fray

men We are today.
