of clothing and shoes, where pos
sible, have cut down the issue of
new clothing and shoes from 80 to
40 per cent in some instances.
The plants where the mending is
done are run in connection with
forts and camps by the Camp
Quartermaster. When a soldier
tears or rips a garment he turns
it in to his supply officer. When
the soles Of his shoes wear out or
the heel runs down, the shoes go
back to the same officer. These
garments and shoes are taken to
the repair shops managed by the

ficer. When repaired and put in
order they are returned to the
original owner if possible, and if
