WAR CAMP COMMUNITY
SERVICE EXPLAINS ITS WORK
Providing Attractions for Enlisted Men
on Their Days md Hours on
From Camp Duty.

''gnlisted men in Uncle Sans SER
vice on their days and hours off from
camp duty are quite naturally going
to scatter through the nearby towns
and cities, and II is up to tho war
camp community service to make tho
inducements. with respect to whole
some thinking and living, just as numc-
rous as possible"
This was the comment last night by
]. II. H. Radeker, director OF the $780,
600 Statewide drive of the war camp
community service, while discussing
tho organizations program after funds
become available. Secretary OF War
Baker expressed it admirably" re-
sumed Director Radeker, when lac said
he wanted the boys in the service to
take with them an invisible armor
their protection overseas. If they so
with this esprit dc corps the more
quickly and more surely Will they come
back TO us. And the secretary added
that the rest of us will have gotten a
greater start toward realization of the
cormunity's responsibility for the lives
of the people who live i'm IT."
The war camp community service has
high hopes of making a long stride
toward solving the social problem OF
the various branches OF the service sur
rounding the men on leaves of absence
with variety of wholesome oppor-
tunities that will keep the men from
being turned to Inwholesome things
We arc not trying to mother these
red-bloodcd young fighting men in the
sense Of treating them as though they
possessed the intelligence of children"
said Mr.. Radekcr. Far from IT. We
want them TO have q good time dur
ing their brief leisure periods, and no
agency will work harder to make it
possible for them to enjoy themselves.
But we hope to place them in CON
tact with the right kind or recreation
the clean. wholesome. I-.anly forms OF
entertainment and amusement Re-
sides, good many OF the young fell
lows who visit the communities ada
cent TO the camps where they are sta
tioucd are strangers in tho towns and
cities. We expect to act n clearing
house FOR all kinds OF information
which they need. In all Of this work,
naturally, we require close co-opera-
ton on the part OF town and city
dwellers."
Reports concerning the progress OF
the campaign which were received yes

Spouse is being met with III all the
communities where the drive is being
carried on. No local campaign was

Newport News is one OF the cities
where the war camp community service
expects 10 do big things for enlisted
men. The allotment for that city is
$4,000. An estimated budget OF the
needs for 1915 Of the Newport News
branch OF the organization was re.
ceivcd in this city yesterday. owing
