WAS ONLY COMIC OPERA WAR
Americans Experienced Odd Pro-
visions When Joining Spanish
Legion Against hoors

1t was Just a comic lera war any
now, according TO 50 youag Americans
who have returned to NV York from
whence they sailed two months ago
to join the Spanish Foreign Legion
for service against tina M0ors. The
would-be Foreign Legt0nnaires were
represented in numbers among ex- serv-
ice men applying to the American Lee
gion employment burean for any kind
of work.
After enlistment in New York, the
recruits almost all OF whom had
served overseas with the American
army, were sent to Ceuta, Africa.
There they were informed for the first
time that out OF their pay of 415
pesetas a day (about 60 cents) they
must buy their own uniform, food,
even arms and ammunition.
1T was the funniest war you ever
saw" declared Gco&e Dlmond OF
Brooklyn, who explained that the hard
er you fought the more 1t would cost
you for ammunition. If a man fought
very hard he would soon b. deeply in
debt to the Spanish government If,
on the other hand, he conserved am
munition and tried to save money he
stood excellent chances of being
picked off by a Moor Besides all
that. the Americans, who thought they
were to be officers were assured that
they were welcomed only As privates.
