without having to give up a war tax"
When you visit the corner drug

WAS ONLY COMIC OPERA WAR
Americans Experienced Odd Pro,
visions When Joining Spanish
Legion Against Moors

II was just a comic opera war any,
how, according TO So young America ms
who have returned to New York from
whence they sailed two months ago
to join the Spanish Foreign Legion
for service against the MOors. The
wOuld-be Foreign LegiOnnaires were
represented in numbers among ex-serv-
ice men applying to the American Lee
giOn employment bureau 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 AZ
pesetas a day (about 90 cents) they
must buy their own uniform, food
even arms and ammunition.
1T was the funniest war you ever
saw" declared George Dimond Of
Brooklyn, who explained that the hard
er you fought the more it would cost
you for ammunition If a man fought
very hard he would soon he 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.
