accepted as a military truism for
generations. The idea, of course.
is that you have to feed the
soldiers 10 keep them going.
l agree that fodder is inn
portant, but l hold that when it
comes to marching, or even
riding, the soldiers feet are
even more important. / can
prove by history that many
armies have won important VIC
tories without a great deal of

A soldier whose dogs are
barking is not only greatly handi-
capped for hoofinG, but his spirit
is less volatile. l hold that there
is nothing can get a man down
Ike a yelping corn or a violent
bunion. Hence, l am heartily
in favor of the government of
the United States taking official
cognizance of the need of chi-
ropodistS in the war business.
/ BELIEVE there is now a bill

corps 10 specialize on keeping
the feet of our warriors in good
condition.
There are already a few
chlropodiStS in the ranks who
carry on their ,foot-mending on
an unofficial basis but the i'm
portance of their work requires
stronger recognition.
/ am told that the German
army and the British army. too,
always have excellent chiropo-
dlsts assigned 10 troops and that
foot treatment Is as regular as
sick call. The American army,
while making quite a point of
sound feet on enlistment, leaves
the soldier pretty much 10 his
own device if he develops
those painful little ailments Of
the puppies thataIe almost in
evitsble 10 shutting around in
army shoes:
/ PRESUME our army author
Il tiles take it for granted that
a soldier will get out his Chiv
and do any work that may be
necessary on his feet, a time
honored process in our American
life and one that IS not without
its disadvantages, as l must
admit.
However. I think il will be
agreed that the science that
chiropody affords in this matter
is 10 be preferred A decp-Seatcd
Screamer on a toe is not a job
for an amateur.
Every day hundreds Of soldiers
are limping into ChirppodistS'
offices throughout the country
for treatment and getting IT free
Of charge.
The transition from carefully
fitted right shoes 10 the heavy
army brogans has been a trifle
tough on the tender tootsies of
many Of our city fellows. but
much Of their agony would be
eliminated If they could get
prompt and regular attention in
the camps.
ODDLY enough, the navy,
~ which does not call for quite
as much foot work as the army,
has recognized the importance
Of chiropodiStS for some time.

tomorrow at the University of Detroit stadium
We should view it not only magnificent spectacle,
but also definite adjunct to knowledge of how the
United States Army wages war.

enemy 1t will give you clear idea of the vexing and
multifod problems that face American army in the
combat
Second-f you the father mother of boy in
service it will afford you better knowledge of what the
army does to your boy.
Those who have the Army War Show in other
cities pronounce it of the thrilling spectacles
they've witnessed But it is much more than this 1t

LII proceeds of the Army War Show 60 to army

The nerve Of these guys think

And PegIer
Plain Dealer [
Writer Backs Rival
BY PHILIP w. PORTER
Cleveland Plain Dealer Columnist


BEFORE any more time
~ elapses Id like TO get in my
2 cents worth on the subject of
the local Go Councils condem-
nation OF Westbrook Pegler, and
its desire to pressure the CleVe-
land Press into dropping his col
umn. a stupid attempt, to say
the least.
We on the Plain Dealer can't
be accused in this instance Of
Stooging for one of our boys, for
Pegler's column is published by
our competitor and is, in fact,
one of its top features.
If Pegler should disappear
from the Press. something inn
portant and real would be gone.
and that would not hurt us as
a competing newspaper.
So put this down as outside
comment. ! don't know Pegler
and I'm not in his league, but
/ do know he has plenty of CUTS,
something all too rare in news
papers today, and he has the
unions riGht-that is why they
are yelling that he should be
suppressed.
And l know that any such
move as the Go is making in
several cities is a direct threat
TO freedom Of the press, which
affects not only ourselves but
all citizens, black or white. male
or female, union or non-unlon.
OF COURSE, you can write IL
" down now that a newspaper
with any sclf-respcct will get its
back up az that sort of pressure,
and Pegler himself will redouble
his attempts to inject honesty
into the labor movement. and II
Will result in more readers for
him.
The guy won the Pulitzer prize
once for his work on this sub
ject and he knows how TO handle
himself.
The unionists will continue 20
read him-they don't dare not 10.
I'd like 10 touch briefly on
two things:
Cd the silly allegation that
Pegler is hampering the war
effort ny fumigating The unions
and is therefore fifth column

mean 10 free press and free
speech for any special interest
such as a union 10 he able 20

Expert treatment can reclaim
many feet that might be con-
sidered unworthy Of military
service. In the World War
many a patriot got heaved out
because of flat feet. a disability
that can be corrected. Anyway,
in this mechanical military age,
flat feet can scarcely initiate

With proper recognition and

The weu-informed woman today is

Actually, the greatest scientists Of

Shallow breathing, lack Of exer-

too much indoors and too little out
