terms of SEC regulations.
Ross Sawyer, Jr., son of the
county clerk, was named project

project in telegram received
from Washington by the power

applicants for the post, had been
suggested by the trustees.

The proposal from Uruguay
has been turned down by Argen-

Camp B|andine, Fla.
= Artillery Bust

Editors Note: The following
article was written after a visit
by the writer to Camp Bl.nding,
Florida. 1t is a true, conservative
and conscientious picture of what
was seen and heard in covering
the entire camp and talking to
scores Of persons from the low
Hest ~selectees to the Commanding
General.
We might ask how we'll the
cause of national defense is serv-
ed by bringing to light the con-
ditions these particular men and
officers in the army are laboring
under, the obstacles they have en-
countered in trying to train an
army of men to fight; the present
state of their unpreparedness to
wage wal on any nation. We are
confident they have made remar-
kable progress considering lack of
proper equipment and what they
have had to work with. We are
also confident that with the selec-
ton of a proper site for training
these men could have accomplish
ed much greater results at cor
~siderably less expense.
The same politicians responsible
for the location of an army train
ing camp at Camp Blanding are
still working the American govern
ment. The same army officials
who approved the site of Camp
Blanding for artillery training,
when it is completely unfit for
such training, are still operating
for the government. Exposure of
real conditions there should pre-
rel its repetition in camps yet to
be built.
Surely in the interest of our
national defense every effort
should be made to see that the
billions America is spending for
training men go just for that and
are not spent lavishly to grease
the palms of politicians, who are
nothing more than opportunists,
at best.
Nothing less than a full con-
gressional investigation will ever
bring to public light how and why
Camp Blanding came into being.
Such an investigation should be
made and persons suspected of
graft in the matter should either
be cleared or put in Jail.
