In the interest of economy the fac

be used in the coats and the patch
pockets will be done away with. a

General Pershing several months
ago recommended the adoption OF
she unstiffened roll collar after the
style of the British uniform. the
substitution of spiral cloth puttees
for the canvas leggings now in use.
