AS Major-General Alvan c. Gil

object Of all the training Is a SIM
pie one-to teach the soldiers how
to hit the enemy with everything
that American industrial power has
given them.
General Gillem, commander of the
Armored Command: Major General
Charles L. Scott, commander of the
Armored Replacement Training
Center; and Brigadier-General Jo-
seph A. Holly, commandant of the
Armored School, were hosts to the
CLIO visitors, conducting them
around their commands and ex-
planning things for two days.
Each one OF them stressed the
thOr0ughness Of the training,
plus the speed with which the
men are put through IL. AS

to the visitors by General Gillem,
who told them that the Armored

they did one thing-worked at their
jobs Of learning how to kill the

enlisted men attached to the
party-including Negro soldiers

mess hall for lunch.

Is working Dig narusnip on low
income consumers.
How to get those "low end price
llnes"-that's the technical name
for those cheap shirts and overalls
back onto the market was one Of
the questions considered at the first
meeting Of the Consumer Advisory
Committee of the OPA. The COM
mittee Is made up partly Of authori-
ties in the consumer field and
partly OF leaders Of organizations
with active consumer programs.
Co m m lttee members knew
quite q bit about the low end
price line problem to begin with.
They had an opportunity, during
their two day meeting, to ask the
heads Of the OPA divisions and
Chester Bowles himself for
further information. They issued
q statement commencing tho
stand taken by OPA In refusing
to solve the problem by offering
manufacturers higher margins OF
profit ON cheap goods-which
would mean q substantially In
creased price to the consumer.
The War Production Board has
power to allocate materials and to
direct that certain uses to be made
If them. The Consumer Advisory
Committee felt that OPA should in
sist that WPB use those powers to
get cheap clothing items made.
That's the only way to hold the
line.
ENCOURAGING ACTION
It's really very encouraging that
one government agency dealing d.
rectly with consumer problems
should have appointed a committee
to advise them on the consumers
interests. And that's one OF the Inn
nortant things this OPA Consumer
Advisory Committee has been APP
pointed to do. They are to be con-
suited before major policies affect.

Live Ammunition

This new wrinkle in training
use Of live ammunition, with the
very real chance of getting shot IL
you do the wrong thing-is saving
thousands Of lives in battle, the
officers pointed out. Previously, a
soldier went into battle kithout
knowing the sound and sight Of
gunfire. Now. he has a background
Of actual experience before he meets
the enemy-and it gives him the
"know-how" that frequently saves
his life and makes him a much
more effective soldier.
