the morale of the Army-despite
the hardships and sacrifices is
good. Perhaps, even when allow
ance is made for the complaints
that are heard, it would not be too
much to say that it is excellent.
But one thing is certain-the morale
of the Army. whatever its defects,
is incomparably better than that of
the civilian member of the defense
team.
The Army is tackling an extremely
difficult job in seeking for the first
time in our history to raise, equip
and train an effective fighting force
in time of peace. and, by and large,
it is doing its job well. If the time
should come when the result of the
effort now being made is put to the
test of actual combat, the strong
probability is that the Army will
not fail to meet its responsibility
that the failure, if there is failure,
will be on the part of those who also
have a job to do behind the combat
lines.
So far as morale is concerned.
what the Army needs most is to
be let alone to complete its training
program.
The most helpful thing that the
volunteer critics of Army morale
could do would be to put their own
house in order.

came active in church work soon
after becoming member of the
First Church of Christ, Scientist, in
Houston in 1914 and later became a
charter member and leader in the
Third Church in Houston. Since
1881. he has devoted his entire time
to Christian Science healing. church
work and teaching.
In 1884 he was appointed Chris
tan Science Committee on Pub
lication for Texas, an office which
he has resigned to take up his duties
as treasurer of the Mother Church
on October 1. He will continue, how
ever, to conduct his classes in Hous-
ton.

trouble shooters on the road six
hours in advance of the main bod
les of the 29th Division, which will
start moving tomorrow night by
convoy to Morven, N. c., for two
months Of maneuverS.
The engineers job will be to ex-
anime bridges to make certain that
they are of 15-ton capacity, the
minimum required for the two 100
mile-long columns that will move
out of this area after a tWo-Week
training period.
Col. Oehmann said one Atom

Skeptical of capacity signs
on the bridges, the engineers will
rely on their own calculations to
determine whether the spans are
safe, the commanding officer said
and questionable structures will be
reinforced by cutting down roadside
trees for use under the spans as
supporting girderS.

verge at Fort Bragg, N. c., for q

.F.C. {. Investigates
7 Radio Stations
OF CowIes Family
Vice President Says
Chain Lost Money From
1881 Until 1886
By CARTER BROOKE JONES.

Policies and practices of the seven
radio stations owned by the Cowles
family. publishers of the Register
and Tribune of Des Moines, Iowa,
were placed under scrutiny today as
the Federal Communications Com
mission continued its inquiry into
newspaper ownership of radio sta
tionS.
Luther Hill, vice president and
general manager of the Iowa Broad

history of the acquisition and op-
Grafton of these stations. The sta
tionS include two in Des Moines.
one each in Ottumwa, Fort Dodge
and Yankton, S. OAK, and two in
Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
No Guarantee on Publicity.
Counsel for the F. C. c. sought to
bring out how much free publicity
and promotion radio advertisers
were given in the Register and the
/ Tribune. the only newspapers in
DeS MoineS. Mr.. Hill said new pro-
grams were given news stories and
afterWard carried on the radio logs
of these papers, but there was no
| guarantee to an advertiser how
much publicity he would receive
that depended on public interest
in particular programs.
| Mr.. Hill also brought out that
! the two DeS MoineS stations owned
by the newspapers, KRNT and KSO
had powerful competition in an
! other DeS Moines station, WHO
which, with $4,000 watt power, was
the strongest station in the State
Stockholders Decided on Policy.
Mr.. Hill said ordinarily the stock
holders Of the publishing company
decided on policies to be pursued

this was delegated to the Board
of Directors and to executives.

shapeless bodies of enlisted men,
sprawled on the ground for an hour
or so of sleep between one 20-hour
day just ended and another soon to

most to the point of exhaustion, but

country devoid of landing space,
where one false move meant death.
Civilian Job, Too.
In appraising this question of
morale, it is unreasonable to talk
as though the security of the Nation
depended exclusively on the mental
attitude OF the armed services. For
the Army, after all, is but one men,
ber of q national defense team-a
team on which the civilian member
also has a job to do. And what,
from a comparative standpoint, is
the true picture in this respect?
On the civilian front, or so the
people are told, our fight for secur-
ity can be won without sacrifice
of social gains. If men work more
than 40 hours a week. they must
be paid at the rate Of time-and-a-
half, and, in some cases where work
must be done on Saturdays and
Sundays, the rate of pay is doubled.
During maneuvers in the Army, the
men work 140 hours a week and
there is no such thing as time-and-
a-half.
On the civilian front, when men
are not satisfied with working con-
ditions, when they want more pay,
when some dispute arises between
two unions, or when some employer
tries to take advantage of the
emergency to the detriment of his
employees, there is strike. And
partly because of strikes, the Army
today-more than year after we
proclaimed an all-out drive for de-
fense-still is short of many items
acceptia1 IN Droper training At this
late date, Lieut.. Gen. L. J. Nc
Nair, chief of the Army General
Headquarters Staff, has found 1t
necessary to caution rlf1emen
against firing at enemy planes be-
! cause of the need for conserving
blank ammunition. Until one has
actually heard their comments, it is
impossible to have any adequate
concept of the bitterness with which
the soldiers talk of strikes.
Makes His Sacrifices Now.
On the civilian front there has
been much talk of sacriflceS-pre-
sumably in something other than
social gains-Which the people be-
hind the lines will have to make
But as yet these sacrifices are
largely in the future, and, while
the people may make them will

they are yet to be tested in this
respect. But the soldier is making
