supplies for the United States armies
and the allied armies and the peoples
of the allies, it seems to be peculiarly
within the province Of the quartermas-
ter general, who has charge of the
TRANSFORMATION of everything for the
take whatever means the case de-
mands to secure better terminals.
Practical Control Likely.
BY analogy with the government con-
troll of the railroads it seems probable
that the officer responsible for supply
ing the Army will secure some means
of either taking over all the terminals
or of securing a federal supervision of
them that will result in a practical
control.
Another question that the acting
quartermaster general will have to de-
eide is to what extent he will himself
pass upon contracts and to what de-
gree he will permit any civilian or
ganiZation to decide prices and times
of purchase, and to whom shall be
granted anything In the nature of a
monopoly of any Of the government
needs for the war 1t is said by those
general that he has acquired very pos
five way of holding that responsibility
entails authority, and that when he is
placed in q position of trust in it's pro-
lection he will exercise authority to the
last degree.
There are other matters of princi-
pie that he must decide. and his course
will be under close observation both by
those who want to see the country safe
and by those who want to get out of
the war all the money that there is in
1T for them.
The Army is looking to him for sup
plies and transportation.

Expediting Commissions.

The office of the adjutant general is
seeking to reduce the volume of work
thrown suddenly upon it to system
that win meet the demands of the bus
mess OF war. Old conservative ways

One OF the recent Innovations is an
order for the purpose of expediting the
transfer to commissioned rank of civil
ians and enlisted men who have been
selected.
This order of December 49, 1917, pro-
yides that in addition to the date fur

Cannot Force War.

Their investigation has proved that
an army on small peace footing can
not be ready for a great war waged by.
a military nation unless its organize
ton is kept to the highest degree of
excellence and 1t is backed up by some
system of universal military training.
It has been ascertained that there
were shortages of clothing and blan-
kets in some of the camps and canton
ments, and its expression upon the sub
ject to the Secretary of War helped to
accelerate the movement of the ma
chinery to carry relief to the pitiful
condition
1t has considered the method of
the department in the purchase of sup
plies that are so vast that they tax the
powers Of the nation to produce them
in sufficient quantities, and call for
them on scale so big as to tempt the
cupidity of those in positions of honor.
The sunlight threw it's beams upon the
base sorting unit. and that sore spot
is eradicated.
IT heard with some amazement the
tale of the complications that are
thrown about the simplest matter of
purchase in'the regulations that REQUIRE
Endorsements and recommendations and
transmissions and opinions before the
purchasing officer can send the supply
to the officer who has asked for ii in
his camp, but a change has placed a

The Senators Inquire.

The inquiry, dignified and friendly,
but searching, of the Senate military
committee into the conduct Of the
Army thus far in the war has not been
without wholesome results.
Early in the proceeding the chairman,
Senator Chamberlain, announced his at
titude as one of friendliness to the Of
ficers who have the stupendous task
of creating an Army for a nation with
out one. 'They need" said he. "all the
support that the Congress and people
can give them; but there is no cure
like the sunlight. and If there are any
sore spots 1t is better that we should
uncover them. We, If we know the
facts. may devise legislation that will
be helpful.
AS result of their questions it is now
understood that the cutlery againA the
shortage of military rifles, while rekret-
table, was unfair. and that the shortage
was only temporary and arose from
the delay necessary to provide the Army
with much better weapon. 1t appears
that the machine gun question is on
the road to practical solution, and that
the department of ordnance has created.
with the aid of civilian officers, an organ
ization that will be adequate to keep the
Army in the field fully supplied with mu-
ntions

The passage of a train of thirty
Army motor trucks. not of the new
stand. I'd type, on its way from the
makers to the new truck depot in Bal
timore brought forth some interest
ing questions from the members Of
the Senate committee to Maj. Gen.
Henry G. Sharpe. then before them.
The general said: "Since 1 had moth
ing personally to do with the new
standard trucks, although they come
under the Office Of the quartermaster
general, can speak freely of the way
the development Of them has been
brought about. I cannot speak too
highly OF the excellent work accom-
plished by Gen. Baker. Col. Drake,
Capt. Britton and Mr.. Christian Girl in
the production Of this truck, which for
its purpose is the best in the world.
1.-THE engineers of the great motor
truck concerns, who in peace times
would hardly speak to one another
when they met, lest they should be-
tray their trade secrets, came together
at Washington at the invitation of the
automobile engineers and disclosed
their most intimate plans that the
composite mind might the better
evolve a truck for the Army.
Worked Out New Motor.
LAS a result they worked out the
new motor and the three sizes OF
standardized trucks of great power
and endurance Then, under the advice
of Mr.. Girl, the department gave con-
tracts to the drop forgers and part
makers-to as many as would make
them-and to assemblers-as many as
would undertake the work-to turn out
the standardized trucks.
First deliveries of what may. be
called the fabricated motor truck will
come about the middle of January, and
soon thereafter they will come in vast
numbers from all parts of the Union.
They are the best truck made, and they
come in three sizes-the three ton, one
and half ton and the lighter delivery
size.
Their most notable quality is that all
their parts are standardized. Stand
ardizatfon at once mu1tipltes their pro-
ductfon and reduces the number of
parts that must be sent abroad to be
held in stock for repairs to about only
10000"
The number of parts mentioned by
/. Gen. Sharpe itself seems large to the
uninitiated. but the four types of truck
hitherto used in the Army require that
nearly $4,000 kinds of parts be kept in
stock. and it is reported that the Eng
1ish have in warehouses in France
100000 kinds of parts for the many
varieties of motor trucks and automo-
biles that they were forced to adopt,
for war wien 1t descended upon them.
