Million. Wear Uniform
Illegally, Army Says;
Headache for MPs
BY the Assoeiaisd Press

The Army, still worried about
getting more men into uniform, is
almost as fretful over how to per-
suade perhaps a million to doff
their khaki.
That's the number the War De-
partment suspects may be attired
illegally in Army dress-including
some who never packed rife. They
bought their military garb at surplus
stores with no questions asked.
The department is concerned for
two reasons;
l. The, Army gets black eye
whenever seine individual in uniform
commits $scTime or otherwise mis-
behaves I'M public.
2. .Morae OF men still in uniform
goes down when fresh criticism is
heaped on the Army.
| Headache to Every MP.
Brig. Gen. B. M Bryan, the Army S
provost marshal general, described
the situation today as "a headache
to the War Department and to every
Mp"
What 10 do about it is causing
much scratching of official heads
One PROPOSAL was to ask Congress to
tighten existing laws which provide
a maximum of six months in Jail
and $500 fif1e for wearing uniform
illegally.
But that was put on the shelf
even before Congress quit for the
year. The problem of enforcing the
present law is entirely too much for
the $500 military police currently
on town and train patrol in the en-
tire United States.
And the Army has found from
years postwar experience that ci-
villain authorities lack enthusiasm
for trying to pin down the status of
men, who, on the face of things.
are either in service or recently dis
charged.
For 80 days after he quits the
service 1t is perfectly all right for a
GI or an officer to wear his uniform
with full insignia. Technically he
is supposed to be on his way home,
and there is no disposition to quib-
Die whether he actually is travelling
Get Reduced Rates.
After the three months the law
says the uniform must come off
at least its insignia. But officials
acknowledge that despite the law
men can keep on wearing their uni
forms with relative impunity and
thereby enjoy reduced admission
rates at many movies, attend USO
shows and travel at reduced rail-
road furlough rates.
II an MP starts to ask questions
the former CT can give him a line
OF snappy back talk that would
have meant the guardhouse not so
long ago. The Army's policemen
can't arrest a civilian, although he
is authorized to hold a man in uni
form Tor civilian authorities if there
Is evidence of crime or misde-
meanor.
The only short-range solution I
see is to make the soldier in service
stand out by his military bearing
and the general way he conducts
himself" Gen. Bryan said.
The Army's problem is more acute
than that Of the Navy because of
numbers and the nature OF the Navy
uniform.
There were some difficulties after
world War I, but the DISCHARGED
ooughboys then were more eager to
dischard the wrapped leggires and
other uncomfortable articles of mill
tary clothing of that era.

He said he watched one japanese
soldier smother baby to death

mother was being attacked.
