Every large Post is city in itself,
where the Commanding Officer is
the Mayor and legislative body, and
the EmPees are the policemen who
enforce the laws exactly as do civil
ian cops.
In times gone by the EmPees
were men detailed from every De-
tachment on. Post, but times
change. The Military Policemen are
a separate and distinct corps, ex-
actly like the Artillery, Cavalry or
Infantry. The Lieutenant, Captain
or Colonel in charge is the Provost
Marshal, with the official title, ''Di-
rector of Internal Security" whose
duty of enforcing all military laws
gives him jurisdiction not only over
all military personnel in his area,
but also every civilian on the Post.
Today only especially fitted men
are assigned to EmPee Detachments.
Then they are given thirteen weeks
of special training in its duties,
during which time all who are
deemed unfit are weeded out. This
training includes traffic control,
control of individual movement and
control of Prisoners of War. Others,
who speak several languages, be-
come highly valuable experts, who
question War Prisoners for military
information. Instead of being the
old strong arm squad that enforced
authority with club, the EmPee
of today assists bewildered civilians
and soldiers with good advice
Just as might happen in any
city, every crime ON the calendar,
from merely being off-limitS to mur-
der, has been committed at Fort
Huachuca since the beginning of
the war, and punishment has been
carried out on the Post in accord
ance with every sentence pronounc-
ed by the courts martial.
The EmPees work harmoniouSly
hand in hand with the civil au-
thorities in preventing crime and
preserving order in those localities
adjacent to the Post. They have
had under their control since acti-
vation the various border details:
Naco, Douglas, Bisbee and Nogales,
Ariz., also week-ends in Tucson,

terror of the Post.
The FmPees have had a perma-
nent detail to patrol the (SP) Here
ford buS which operates from the
Old Post to Hereford, Ariz., for the
past two and a half years. They
have escorted troops and all mill
tary personnel returning from fur
Tough or going on furlough, plus
large number of men coming on
Post or leaving Post on special
orders.
Today the Provost Marshal's Of
flee is directed by Capt. Joseph j.
Vincent, Provost Marshal; 1t. Wal
ter A. Looney, Assistant Provost
Marshal, and 1t. Robert A. Davis,
Assistant Provost Marsal. Sgt. Ulese
Tomlin is Desk Sergeant, and WAC
Acting Sergeant Major Lucia M.
Pitts has charge of all clerical work,
which includes fingerprinting and
records Of whiskey and marihuana
cases as well as the many minor
infractions of the law.
The Corps of Military Police De-
tachment is under the command Of

Sou Mail Center
Insures Delivery
OF GI's Letters

Morale and mail are synonymous.
among soldiers or civilians if they
do not receive news of their loved
ones.
Therefore, the SOU Mail Distribu-
ton Center, consisting of ten en-
listed men and women, directed by
1t. L. G.. Swafford, has played a
great part in uplifting the morale
of the people of this Post.
The Mail Distribution Center has
an incoming registered and insured
section, general delivery, sale of
stamps and locator file which serv-
ices civilians, Red Cross, and all
Post attached military units.
When any unit leaves Huachuca,
its change of address cards are pro-
cessed by this office These cards
are checked for legibility and the
new address inserted.
Thus, with the exodus of so many
men from this Post, the personnel
at the Center has been very busy,
indeed.
The enlisted people who work
there are: T/5 Angus Arlington
clerk in charge; T/5 James R.
Rhone, chief locator clerk; T/5 Au-
drey F. Dawson, directory clerk;
T/5 Sandra Littlejohn, directory
clerk; T/5 Irene Hunter, general
delivery clerk; Pfc. Jessie Kelly,
registered and insured clerk; Pfc.

Pvt. Harry E. Beltt, mail dispatcher;
Pvt. Millie Taylor, directory clerk;

A civilian, unused to Army meth

Huachuca, or any other great mill

of one particular Detachment, the

remembers stories of the last war,
stories of tough, hard-boiled diSci-

Portable for all with whom they
came in contact. Therein the civil

requiring specialists or just plain
O. l., the detachment has responded
to the challenge
Not only has there been rapid
turnover of enlisted personnel in this
organization, but the frequent chances
of officer personnel has been more of
a handicap than an asset. The fact
that the organization continued to
function comparatively smoothly is a
tribute to the type of leadership in
the organization.
Captain Hansen, Captain Huffman,
Captain Longstretch, Lit Castine
Davis and 1t. Allah Butcher had to
be unusual and inspiring leaders to
maintain the high morale and over
all efficiency of such a fluctuating
organization.
The frequent change of officer per-
sonnel Increased greatly the RESPONSE
bility of non- commissioned officers
since it was their responsibility to
carry on while the leaders were chang

Artists such as Lawrence Whiso-

In conclusion, the present COM

scribed as a problem child by some
and stepchild by others, is an or
ganization well known but little un-
derstood by those on the outside, but
known to be strong, unified and ca
pable by those on the inside. Much of
the favorable publicity on the thor

various activities on the post for
which they are responsible is a mag
nificent tribute to the work of the
people of the Post Headquarters De-

RUSSIA SURPRISES

Moscow continues to be the source of
surprises.
A few weeks ago it was the proposal by
the Peoples Commissar of Foreign Af-
fairs Immediately ratified by the Su-
preme Soviet Of the U. S. S. R. that each
of the sixteen constituent republics" Of
the Soviet Union should become autono-
NOUS, with full power to control its own
military and foreign affairs.
Moscow has just recognized the Badog
lilo government of Italy Neither London
nor Washington has gone this far. All
our dealings with Badoglio, and all Of
Brtain's dealings with him. have been
through military authorities
But Moscow has extended full diplo-
matte recognition of the Badoglio-Victor
Emmanuel regime She has been the first
of the United Nations to do so.
Just what the significance of the move
is no one outside Of the Kremlin seems to
know.
All sorts of explanations have been
given 1t has been pointed out that
though Italy declared war on Russia,
Russia never bothered to declare war on
Italy, and argued that recognition there
fore means no more than the return of an
ambassador temporarily recalled. 1t has
been said that Russia is seeking to
strengthen her position in the Mediter-
ranean and the Balkans.

FAVOR EXTRA MILL LEVY

War time makes many homefront casu-
alties. Don't let Butte high school be
one! Vote for the extra Il a mills and keep
faith with youth Today we ask much Of
our children, Of our boys particularly. We
hand them a gun before we give them
ballot. We send them by millions to far
flung battlefronts. We ask them if the
need arises as it increasingly does, to give
up life before they have learned how price
less it is. Wouldn't it be ironic to lessen
their education facilities then to save
few tax dollars? Nationwide, boys in the
services are writing home their regret
that they did not finish high school, and
give assurances that "When we come
back, we're going to finish" Some more
practically inquire whether the local
school will permit them credit under the
government educational program. They
are learning realistically the value Of edu-
cation. Can we do less than keep the
schools at home operating on the high pre-
war level?

youth short. Can we fail those who are
