Third Of a Sertes.)
BY THOMAS r. HENRY.

BY THOMAS II. HENRY.
The member OF an amphibious
divisiofl-ofIicer or enlisted man
must be the toughest Of all fighting
men.
He must be even tougher than the
American marine or the British
commando. He must possess a
discipline and skill not hitherto re-
quired of either.
He must be able to see in the dark.
Most amphibious operations are
carried out on the blackest nights.
Sense Of Direction Needed.
He must have a sense OF direction
and an ability to move noiselessly
through any kind of country at least
equal to that popular1y credited to
Indian warriors. Here again some
men have . natural capacity which
can be improved by training.
He must be able to go for miles
n a small boat through heavy seas.
The ideal time for a landing Is
during q night storm when hostile
aircraft are grounded. Any one the
least subject to seasickness either
must overcome the tendency or go
into some other service. It men DO
not know exactly how to take care
Of themselves, there will be lot OF
broken legs and arms when they
reach shore.
He must know Just how to stow
himself and hts equipment IN q
small boat.
Quart Of Water Day.
He must be able to climb cliffs
swiftly and silently. He must be
conditioned to require only quart
Of water . day, enough for minimum
physiological demands. He must be
Able to march 4 minimum OF 20 miles
. day with all equipment over any
kind Of country. He must be skilled
In the acknowledgements lighting.
Beyond all this, nearly every man
must be skilled in his own speciality,
such as some form OF communlca-
ton. United States Marines re-
uuirements and training form the
backbone OF amphibious training.
But this new type OF fighter must
have all the additional skills OF the
soldier and sailor. The present train
ing program is intended as much to
eliminate the unfit as to improve the
f,t-and there is no room for any
body but the fittest. An amphibious
division must constitute the cream OF
Americas fighting forces.
An amphibious operation neces-
sarily must be one of considerable
magnitude. It cannot be compared
to a commando raid In which a
highly trained. small force lands on
q hostile shore under cover OF dark
ness, does as much damage as posi-
bic In q short time, and then tries to
escape. It can hardly be compared
TO q marine landing operation, con-
Quoted on q much smaller scale and
Q complete action in itself.
81 Superiority.
A small scale amphibian operation
would be worse than useless. It is
generally agreed, Maj Gen. Holland
M. Smith, commandant of the Ma
rine Base at Quantico and of the
Amphibian Force, Atlantic Fleet,
says, that the amphibious force must
have superiority of at least three
to one over any enemy it is likely
to meet in order to have fair
chance of success. The japanese
always have insisted on at least this
much superiority. Seldom, up-to-
date, have they guessed wrong.
Once an amphibian operation has
started everything must proceed on
exact schedule according to plans
worked out in minute detail and

Oil Rationing Season
Divided Into 5 Periods

The Office of Price Administra-
ton announced today that the new
fuel oil rationing plan will divide
the the heating season into five
periods to enable home owners to
budget their rations accurately
throughout the winter.
The coupons, numbered one to
five. will be issued for specific pc
riods, and will be valid only in
those periods. A provision, however,
for advance and delayed use of
coupons will permit householders to
adjust their ration to unusually cold
snaps within any period. For ex-
ample, if period one is bitterly cold
and more oil is required tc keep the
house warm in that time. coupons
will be borrowed from period two
and the value of the coupons in
the later period increased.
For Washington, Maryland and
Virginia period one will be from Oc-
tober to December 3; the second
period will expire January a. the
third February 2; the fourth March
6, while the fifth will be expected to
take care of the remainder of the
heating season.
Fuel oil rationing is expected to
become effective about October Is
although the amount of oil in tanks
on october l will be taken into con-
sideration in determining what the
ration will be for the season.
