The Motor City is going to wit

Gilbert said that with 125 old

PAID THEIR WAY
TO JOIN ARMY

An amazingly high percentage
of these volunteers, officers and
men alike, are family men. The
majority could have remained
outside the scope of the draft
for some time some never
would have been drafted -
while perhaps so per cent could
have gone into essential indus
tries and made from 10 to 20
times the S2l a month which was
the pay of a private at the time
they volunteered.
Yet - they volunteered so
fast that the regiment was over
strength when the final check
up was made. Officers, whose
sales businesses had been shot to
pieces by the discontinuance Of
the manufacture of pleasure
cars, not only spent their own
money to recruit the regiment,
but the enlisted men paid their
own expenses to induction sta
tions.
The 301st calls on no one for
aid. 1t turned up its own car
penters for construction work,
its own small arms experts for
repair of ordnance, its own
welders and mechanics for re-
pair of'weapons and machines of
war. There has never been call
for a technical expert of any
kind that somebody didn't step
out. The utilities company built
in eight days rifle range which
the Army said would take two
and a half months; the same
company turned out logging
crew to cut timber for buildings.
Repairs 60 on as carpenters build
roofs over the heads of me-
chanics.
Colonel Cabell, 49-year-old
West Pointer, swears by the
regiment.

any officer in the Army" he
says. There's nothing this oct
fit can't repair. Nothing"
