Winter Clothing
Supply Held Ample
For GIs in Korea
By the Assoeiaisd Press

A Senate Armed Services sub
committee said today it has been
assured that ample supplies of
warm clothing will be available for
United States troops in Korea If
the fighting continues into the
winter.
Chairman Lyndon johnson,
Democrat, Of Texas. said the SUBJ
committee on Military Prepared
mess sent inquiries to the Army,
Air Force, Navy and Marine Corps
because Of fears" expressed by
some men in Korea that they
would be inadequately clothed
against the rigors of the coming
winter"
He quoted the departments as
saying there are now on hand in
Korea sufficient stocks of cold
weather clothing to supply all per-
sonnel until the end of December
and that additional shipments now
on the way would take care of the
needs for the rest of the winter.
1T was stated" Senator johnson
reported in statement, "that
temporary shortages may arise un-
|avoidably in forward areas because
of transportation difficulties but
that otherwise all would be ade-
quately supplied"
He said his subcommittee would
keep "a continuing check" on the
situation.
Secretary of the Army Pace told
the subcommittee the Army has
developed new cold weather cloth
ing which will reach Korea in
quantity in time for the coolest
months, January and February.
Among these items will be the
new type of combat boot, made OF
rubber and completely water
proof. and with one-half inch OF
wool insulation sealed into the
sole and top.
The Marine Corps reports also
said 1t is furnishing to all Marines
in Korea "a new cold weathe,
boot employing sealed-in princi-
pal OF insulation which it is an
Iticipated will eliminate frost-bitten
fleet"
An Army Quartermaster spokes-
man said. however, that the new
boot would be issued to Army men
on a replacement basis when their
old boots wear out. This neces-
sarily would result in time lag
before all troops were supplied
with the cold resisting boot.
Many of the troops in Korea suf-
Ifered from frost bite in last
winters fighting.
