FOR DESK HEROES
Capital Lounge Lizards Got the
Medals, Is Charge.
"BOuleYard Shock Troops
We're Decorated by Pershing.

+ Washington, Jan. 13.-Charges that
many army medals for distinguished
service were awarded unfairly were
made in the house today by Repre-
sentative GaIlivan, Massachusetts, in
urging complete investigation by the
house military committee.
Many army officers who never
heard a shot were given medals while
scores of heroes in the A E. F. have
not been rewarded. GaIlivan claimed,
adding that the distinguished service
medal as a result is now known as
the desk service medal"
The representative was bitter in his
denunciation of Chief of staff March,
claiming that '-he has not enough
space between his belt and his collar
to display the medals received, and
yet did not hear a hostile shot thruout
the entire war"
General Pershing was alleged as
having given a medal to every COM
missioned messenger boy"
Scarcely a single member of the
boulevard shock troops of Chaumont
and Paris failed TO receive a personal
glorifica ton thru the placing of a
medal on his manly chest" said Gal
Ivan.
1T is believed that practically every
member of the general staff here in
Washington has been awarded one OF
these medals, regardless of the char
acter of service. The rating of sum
total of these citations to swivel chair
officers who never left Washington
would certainly impress one with the
fact that the war was fought with red
ink mahogany desks near the
Washington monument rather than III
the Argonne and ST. Mihiel- If a
single one of these was passed over he
must feel like a gray horse in barr
yard of mules.
Surely the lounge lizards of the
second army of the Potomac have nc

ure. IL walls and floor are both to
be treated, is to do the walls first,
then the woodwork, and finally the
floor.
The institute for Technical Re
search gives the following directions
for refinishing old floors:
For old floors Il Is often advisable
to apply a modern floor stain to hide
imperfections, and then to apply a
varnish, or, II desired, the socalled
varnish stains may be applied in two
coat work. On rough splintery
floors that could not be made to
present q good appearance BY tho
use OF varnish, It Is customary to
apply socalled floor paint which con
tains color pigments OF various kinds
and dries to a very hard. durable,
wear resisting surface.
Another method Of finishing floors
IS to scrape them thoroughly 50 that
smooth surface may be offered.
After lightly sandpapering, q coat OF
liquid wood filler Is applied. and then
two coats Of varnish, allowing at
least a day between coats. Many
painters omit the filler, and apply
three coats OF varnish, with excellent
results.
