G. W. u. TO CUT
TRAINING TIME
Students Army Corps Re
eceives New Order from
Officials.

A decrease in the number of hours
of military drill for medical students
and for certain dental students who
are enrolled in the George Washing
ton University unit of the Students
Army Training Corps has been or
dered by officials of the univedsity
All dental students except those in
the frst-year class are included in
the order.
The issuance of the order marks
the first step taken at the university
to alter the S. A. T. c. plans in con-
formity with the demobilization pro-
gram of the War Department.
Several members of the unit al
ready have applied to their COM
manding officer for discharge from
the service. and 1t is expected that
their release will be sanctioned i'm
mediately. as Secretary of War
Baker has announced that it will be
the policy of the War Department
to grant discharges from the S. A.
T. c. whenever requested.
Favors Disbanding.
George Washington University Of
tcials have not yet received from
the War Department any instruc-
tions as to what disposition is to
be made of the S. A. T. c. Secre-
tary Baker is said to favor the dis
banding of units at those instita-
tions which desire such action taken,
but George Washington officials have
no official orders concerning such a
pOFc--
II the matter is left to the univer-
shy authorities to decide individually,
it is likely that the George Washing
ton unit will be continued for the
remainder of the present academic
year. in view of the fact that nine
month contracts for housing and
other accommodations have been
signed, and that there is no marked
opposition at the university to- the
continuance of military instruction.
But If the organization is contin-
ued at the university, il is very prob
able that the military subjects will
be decreased and that the number of
academic subjects will be increased.
Students enrolled in the unit will
continue to receive free tuition, hous-
ing, subsistence, equipment and uni
forms and the pay of privates in the
regular army. These buildings have
been taken over by the univer-
sitv Tor the housing of the student
soldiers.

Lower Prices For Mill Fee DIS.

The new milling rules promulgated
recently by the Food Administration
are resulting III much lower prices
for mill feeds than those which pre-
vailed in the last year, Investigations
by the Missouri Division of the Food
Administration show.
Under the new rules many mills are
selling bran in bulk for 81 a hundred
weight and some for even less. To
this price must be added the cost Of
sacks and margins Of profit for diff
ferent classes Of sales. The feeder is
assured, however, that the price on
bran will be much lower than what he
had to pay last year.
In shorts and other wheat feeds,
farms and feeders have been protect
ed further by the Food Administra-
ton by the new rules which prohibit
millers from charging more than II
cents a hundredweight over the brar
price. Mixed feed, which is all tn,
wheat grain not ground into -four
sells for even less. Mills may charge
6lS cents a hundredweight for such
feed above the price they get for thu
bran,

From Lieut.. (Dr.) Martin,

Dear Mr.. Ake-I have been receiv-
ing the REGISTER every week through
my wife.
am certainly proud to note the
splendid loyalty Of the people of Iron
County. 1t makes us in the army feel
that our services are appreciated.
wish | had the time and space to
tell you what a wonderful Army we
have. How unlike the old Army.
If parents only realized how much
care is taken to train their boys, not
only to be good soldiers, but to be
good, clean and healthy men, they
would not worry half SO much.
While many young men, misunder-
standing the great honor attached to
those serving in this war, have rather
evaded the service, Others have with
out hesitation volunteered their ser.
vices and in so doing have made great
sacrifices.

not particularly brave, but | assure
you it was n OF the greatest disap'

that I may be allowed to remain in the
service in some useful capacity. AL
though the pay l receive is not sui
ficient to support myself and family
am perfectly willing to try to make
ends meet till the war is over.
Since completing my training
over three months ago l have beel
with the Camp Infirmary most OF thu

Our business is to examine recruit,
and hold sick call. Twice every da,
we inspect carefully every man III

Suggestion to Relatives and Friends.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, August 10.--At a
conference Of Red Cross workers held
in st. Louis a decided stand was taken
against relatiyea going to cantonment
towns to be near soldiers. 1t was
pointed out that the practice injured
the morale of the soldier, brought
about impoverished conditions in his
family and in some instances created
a condition that threatened to disrupt
the ia mily,
1t was agreed at this meeting to ask
chairmen of all Home Service Sec
tons to earn relatives against visit
ing camps. This may best be done by
telling men about to depart for camp
the danger of having relatives visit
them and asking that they advise
relatives against it.
The Red Cross has been called on to
aid thousands Of stranded wives and
mothers who left home and relative
to visit camps. The efforts thus ex-
pended by the Red Cross conld be
diverted to aiding dependents who
remain at their homes.
