CHAMBERLAIN IN
ATTACK ON ARMY
Declares the War Department
Not Prepared to Take Care
of the Returning
Soldiers.
BY United Press.

washington, Dec. 31.-America is as
unprepared today to take care of the
returning soldiers as she was a year
g to expedite their departure t
France" Senator Chamberlain, chair
mar OF the military committee, today
declared on the floor of the Senate.
Reading from Pershing's report,
Chamberlain showed how in the battle
of st. Mihiel the American army was
dependent on the French and British,
both for artillery and aircraft"
Chamberlain quoted from Charles e.
Hughes report on the aircraft situa-
ton concerning misleading statements
given the public regarding the ship
ment of American built airplanes to
France.
THE American people are led to be-
lieve we were sending airplanes abroad
in quantity" said Chamberlain. "As
a matter of fact General Pershing tells
us the first American squadron did not
cross the German lines until August Z,
1918"
Lack of Training Planes.
Chamberlain declared there was
much inefficiency, injustice and loss OF
man power resulting from failure 10
provide training planes for young
American aviators. He told how they
were sent to France to be trained ana
got no training. Those who went flrst
had their morals destroyed,
lain declared, because they got neither
training nor fighting, and later on were
shunted aside by other young men
trained in this country and sent abroad.
He cited the cases of two lieutenants
who appealed to him after their com
missions had been revoked when they
asked for transfers to some branch OF
the service where they could get into
active service.
81 got nowhere because of red tape
until [ look up the matter personally
with General March," said Chamber
lain. 'He reinstated the two boys n
transferred them to the tank corps.
But thousands Of others did not get the
same redress these two got.
Praises Pershing.
General Pershing, in the nature of
things, could not know there were men
in the American forces abroad who
were not getting the training they went
over for. l would not say a word in
criticism of P%ershing. His handling Of
the war was magnificent. IT has sell
DOM, if ever, been equalled and never
surpassed. But l cali attention to this
situation to show the inefficiency which
existed.
"Unless something is done to correct
conditions now these men. when they
come back, will make themselves heard
and felt as they should, warned Cham
| berlain.
I'VE are pursuing the same dilatory
tactics in preparing to care for the
wounded men coming back from
France. as we did in preparing them to
fight" he added. This may be denied,
but the statement is true"

awaiting men who use their heads in

$4,000 was not paid only for the ton

more and more high prices. Excellence
in any department of the work on the
