AT CODY
ARE CONDEMNED
fRr Associated Press. }

st. Paul, Mimi, Jan. 30.-The Min
nesota state public safety commits
sion's committee sent to investigate
conditions in training camps at
which Minnesota soldiers are in train
ing, found some things to condemn
and some to commend. In a report
submitted today by the committee,
conditions at Camp Cody, Deming, N.
NJ, occupy the largest space, as 1t was
concerning Camp Cody that the COM
plants were made by st. Paul men
that resulted in n determination to
make the investigation.
At Camp Cody, hospital conditions
failed to meet the approval Of the
Minnesota investigators. The dust
was found a serious fault; the social
attitude Of some officers is criticized;
the class of officers and physicians
found high; the food good.
Compared to the other camps visit
Winfield Scott, Lewis,
Pike, jefferson Barracks and Dodge
the report says that the authorities at
Deming have neglected the hospital
and equipment. Because the physi-
clans are engaged in administrative
duties in addition to their regular
work, the proportion Of them to the
of sick is not as large as
would be the case were the doctors
to devote their time solely to the hos
pital work, the report says.

Make it plain that laborers and
artisans are merely to enroll,
that is to send their names and
addresses, and to retain their
present positions until job is
actually offered.
Enrolment does not obligate
applicant to accept, and neither
does it obligate government to
offer job. Examiners are to see
- all applicants. Statement of
laboTers needed means during
next seven months.
Mr.. Wooledge also instructed
Four Minute speakers to refer appli-
cants to the county enrolment chair

definitely ascertain that one solitary

Mr.. Murphy brought in records Of
high powered, siX-Cylinder touring

cars might have been insured by
him, as they probably were two Of a
half dozen Of that kind Of cars which
passed through the organization.
The witness said that if Mrs.
TownIey had any diamonds or any
large bank account she had carefully
concealed that fact from him. "She
didn't have any money when I mar
ried her and she hasn't had any
since except what I have given her"
He thought she might have an ac-
count of 500 to $3.50 in some twin
city bank, but was positive she had
no bank or real estate holdings any
where and that no one else was
holding real or other property for
himself or for Mrs. Townley.
