Dear Editor:

Dear Editor:
In my previous letters to you I've
tried to write something of life in
general in an army camp. This
one however will follow somewhat
of a different trend. I'm counting
on your promise that "any and all
letters will be welcome.
For the past two weeks I've heard
the opinion of civilians in every part
of the country, over the radio and in
newspapers, concerning the national
emergency and bills being pushed
through Congress, with that word
emergency" to st MI e d e them
through. 1 have yet, however, to
hear the opinion of one soldier either
asked or given. 1t makes most OF
us feel that what we need is another
Abraham Lincoln
Perhaps the reason the opinions OF
those most concerned is not con-
sidered is because their answer to
both the bills, the repeal of the pro-
visions in the draft law forbidding
the sending of draftees to foreign
shores and the bill to extend the time
of service, would be unanimous and
emphatic mo.
Here are one or two impersonal
reasons why, disregarding the prom
Use of the President made October
80, 1910.
One good reason as we see it, is
the shortage of equipment. Why
build up huge army if the factories
of this country are not able to turn
out enough material at least to train
with? This battalion isn't going on
maneuvers this summer because it
does not have enough trucks to trans
port the men. The radio section is
short on radios. Few if any sections
have adequate equipment.
If the men working in the factories
getting from soc an hour up think
they have any reason to strike they
should be put in an army camp for
a while. They'd change their mind!
1t seems now to be much more i'm
portant to keep the factories of this
country going than to keep thousands
of men in camp that can only be a
needless expense without equipment
with which to work.
Another reason is the attitude of
the soldiers themselves. Not only
the privates but the officers also.
They all came here if not willingly
at least with the intention of learn
ing all they could in their year and
making the best of it. If this bill
extending their time indefinitely
goes through it will change their
whole outlook; especially the men
who volunteered to get their year
in and get back to work at the peak
Of the defense splurge.
AS an example of what will hap
pen, during my first three months
of training there wasn't a case of
desertion in the battalion although
everyone knows they are the hard
est months. Now since these bills
are being considered five men that
know have gone lover the hill'.
One of the officers made the remark
that "the last selectee over the hill
is a sissy, and that's the attitude
of many of us.
Whether Knox, Stimson and Gen.
eral Marshal know it or not they are
playing with fire and if they get
their way the crisis they have been
emphasizing will become a reality,
but not from abroad.

For two Sundays the Bethesda
pulpit has been occupied by Rev. J.
w. Phelps of st. Paul.
Maxwell charged the pastor with
misconduct with his (Maxwell's)
wife, who is also a member Of
Bethesda.
WadlingtOn's Lawyer Rejected
Tuesday nights meeting was
largely attended according to
church officials. Before the meet
ing was called to order Gordon
Wright, Rev. Wadlington's at
torney, appeared at the door and
announced that he had come to
represent the pastor.
Church officials who had gath
cred at the door of the church for
a brief consultation before opening
the meeting informed Wright that
he could not represent Warrington
at the church meeting since no
outsiders were to be allowed.
The meeting elected Rev. Jace
Clayburn as its chairman. Mr.. Max
well reviewed briefly the incident
which brought about the charges.
Officials stated that Rev. Wadling-
ton had been notified of the meet
ing and its purpose, and that his
presence was requested.
A letter from Rev. Wadlington's
attorney in which the pastors side
of the case was reviewed was read.
The church voted to reject the
letter as being improper procedure
in this case. Those who fought the
letter expressed regret that the
pastor failed to appear to defend
himself. '--'-,
Some of the pastors supporters
in the congregation felt their posi-
ton untenable because Of Wadling-
tons failure to face the church and
his accuser.
Along with the demand for his
immediate resignation was also n
motion that his salary be stopped
Immediately.
