MP's to Enforce Order in Germany
With Iron Hand in a Velvet Glove
By NEA ssrvie.


WASHINGTON, - A military
policeman crossed the border
into Germany this morning.
Some of his fellows were there
before him and many more VIII
follow. Although he may not
have realized it, history was
walking beside the khaki clad
soldier wearing the blue and
white MP armband when he
stepped onto German soil.
He is a product of the new
Corps of Military Police found
ed on September 26, l94l, just
three years ago. Unlike the mil
itary policeman of the last war,
he has been especially selected
and especially trained in mill
tary police work. What he does
in Germany, how he conducts
himself in dealing with the Ger
man civilian and returning mill
tary population may have a
decided bearing on future Ger
man-American relations.
"The Military Police have
The daily monitor leader., 1944-10-20

been called the executive arm oi
military government" Maj. Gen
Archer l.. Lerch, Provost Mar
shall General, points out. They
will have the job of enforcing
whatever proclamations and or
ders are issued by the military
government. In this they will
cooperate with local authorities
whenever those authorities are
available and will cooperate"
CONTROL CIVILIANS
The MP will enforce curfew
regulations, direct traffic, and
patrol streets of German cities
and villages. His CI-Criminal

work on price control. He Will
control the circulation of civil :
ians, allowing them complete
freedom in some sections of the
cities, keeping them out of other
sections. The MP will be present
when they receive food rations,
or he may dish out the rations.
He will keep order in the courts,
testifying in various cases.
The MP has been taught to
handle himself in a military
manner when dealing with the
Germans, because the Germans
are a military people. From the
time of the Prussians through
the time of the Nazis they have
looked upon the military with
and, consciously or un-
they will be COM
pairing the American military
man with their own German
soldiers.
Just how thoroughly they re-
spect firm military authority
was shown recently during a
visit made by one of the officers
from the Provost Marshal Gen
erals Office to a German Pris-
oner of War camp in this
country.
1t was an officers camp and
the American sent word to the
senior German officer that he
would be present at 9 o'clock in
the morning and that he wanted

walking and driving, he said.
All police have been instruct
ed to apprehend motorists at
tempting to drive with only one
headlight or with a dim or mis-
directed headlight.
In support of police enforce
ment efforts during the cam
paign, Chief Rosso said that edu-
cational posters and leaflets pre-
pared by the Michigan State
Safety Commission and the
Traffic Safety Association will
be distributed warning pedes-
trians to stop and look both
ways before stepping off the
curb and to take extra safety
precautions when walking at
night, while urging motorists to
be doubly alert when driving at
night.

A great opportunity for the

nomic limit rather than any en-
gineering limit to the size of fu-
ture planes" he said.
WILL TRIM MEAT
Meat will be trimmed and
dressed to decrease the weight
load. But the trimming and
dressing of finest Chicago beef
and super quality Omaha steaks,
and fancy, full oven prepared,
young frying chickens will save
the house wife considerable time
and trouble in preparing meals.
Pre-cut, trimmed and attrac-
lively packaged in cellophane or
pliofilm meat and high quality
specially items, such as calves
liver, brains aond fancy sausages
will attract young men and
women fed up on army food
and anxious to try all the new
thrills in setting up housekeep-
ing, and will find their way to
remote American communities
and points outside of the US.

Their other Objectionable haoit is
that their leaves become covered
with oily SCOT from city chimneys,
and on this SCOT dust sticks fast. BY
autumn the glorious green leaves,
with their silver Innings, are dull
and dirty.
But these trees make wonderful
windbreaks. They form low, dense
forests on mountain slopes, and
their root system holds fast to the
soil, preventing erosion.
In the early spring the poplar
leaves and flowers are very attrac-
tive. The foliage is dark green
above and silvery white below. The
pale outer bark breaks in streaks
and spots, revealing the dark under
layers in the same fashion of the
pale trunks of the cottonwoods.

All the trees belonging to this

root in moist soil in a very short
time. They send up healthy, vigor-
GUS suckers that brook no interfer-
ence when they decide to make their
way to air and light. This habit is
what causes neighbors to become
quite irritable when the poplar roots
thrust aside pipes or push out
large chunks of turf on the lawn.
