THE WASTED =.
=. TEN MILLIONS

As long ago as last March a re-
port was made to the commanding
general of the A + F on the dis
tressing conditions at the motor
~epair camp at Vernenil, France.
This report, in time. was filed in
the war department.
Yet not until two fearless ser
gcants. resorting to he weapon of
publicly. had repeatedly reviewed
the history Of that camp was any,
thing done which leads to the
prospect of punishment of anyone
for wasting ten million dollars
worth of motor equipment. Not
until congressional committee
had gone deep into the inyestiga-
ton of the criminal wastes at
Verneuil did anyone connected
with the army or the war depart
.ment hint that the case suggested
courts martial And it is signifi-
,ant that the officer who did de-
liver the hint was one which the
war department has undertaken
TO discipline for criticizing meth
DDS and practices in the military
arm of the government.
The conclusion is forced on one
that the waste at Verneuil was for
some mysterious reason condoned
by the army heads and the secre-
tary of war. There are grounds
for the suspicion that the com
.mandani of the camp is being
shielded, perhaps because he is a
