ARMY SELECTS BIG NEGRO
HOTEL TO HOUSE RETURNING
WAR VETERANS

CHICAGO, Sept. II (ANP)-
The Pershing hotel here has been
designated by the army as a redis-
tribution station for Negro officers
and enlisted men of the army ground
and service forces returning from
overseas, according to an announce
ment by Gen. Aurand, commanding
general, sixth service command.
The center is one of many which
will be scattered in various parts
of the country before the bulk of
the veterans return.
Establishment of these installa-
tions is part of a recently an
nounced program to provide facil-
tiles in a pleasant atmosphere
where troops may relax from the
strain Of overseas service and en-
joy recreation opportunities while
being reclassified and recruited for
future assignments, it was stated.
These assignments will be made
where the veterans combat theatre
experience is needed most after he
has undergone physical and occupa-
tional reclassification, mental and
physical conditioning, re-orienta
tion and re-indictrination.
According to the army's plan, re-
turning veterans will be sent from
ports of embarkation to reception
stations near their homes where
they will receive partial pay and, if
necessary, fresh uniforms. After
21-day furlough, they will report to
the redistribution station, where
they will find full hotel facilities
and furnishings without "bar-
racks" atmosphere.
Wives of the veterans may ac-
company their husbands, the army
announced, if advance arrange

ments have been made and the re-
distribution stations are no
crowded beyond capacity at the
time, but pointed out that veterans
not the government, must defray
their wives expense who will be
housed and fed on cost basis.
There will be no haste, no "pres-
sure" the army's announcement
continued, Each returnee will
spend one to two weeks at a redis-
tribution station. During this time,
he will undergo a physical examin-
alton; medical and dental treatment
necessary to fit him for further
duty will be given. Lost or incom-
plete military records will be COM
pleted and brought up to date. Ex-
pert interviewers and classifica-
tion personnel, especially training
by the army for this work, and
many of them overseas veterans,
will endeavor to reassign the re-
turned personnel where their expe-
rience and qualifications will be of
greatest value to the army
The military duties required of
the returning veterans have been
arranged SO that they will not oc-
cupy more than a few hours each
day, the army said. The balance of
