Rescueing a soldierss cat, or mediating a domestic quarrel, or convoying an unruly private back to camp its all in the night's work for a military policeman, those soldiers from the army field I here who wear the black arm-bands labeled MP. Theyre a picked group of men, who have all the duties of the ordinary soldier and more. As ex-olained by Major Royal R. Rewart, Provctat Marshall of the Deming Air Base and their Commanding Officer, they are con-oerneu with all crimes and offenses ommitted by any person subject to military law within the area around the Deming Air Base. But must important, they try to protect the soldier and prevent the commission of acts which injure discipline or discredit the army.

In World War the MPs were usually soldiers named Joe, who were so useless to their own organization that they were detailed for police work. As a result, the MPs answer to a soldier was a clout over the head, and his insignia was said to mean More Pain. Now, the 32 men who comprise the MP force here receive a training course extending over nine months, after being chosen for high mental and physical abilities. The subjects include Technique of Arrest, Psychology of the Criminal Mind, Traffic Control, Presentation of Evidence, and Protection of the Soldier. Their instruetor, Lt.

Eugene Huddleston, assistant Provost Marshal, lays great stress upon protection of the soldier. He says: If a soldier looks as though he cant take care of himself on the city streets, we ask him to get home on the next bus. If he wont go, we take him to the city jail and let him rest until eight o'clock the next day, when we bring him back to his organization. To protect other men (and themselves) the MPs must take a 100-hour physical training course. They work out every day for two hours under Lt.

Huddleston in the Deming Armory: boxing, wrestling, tumbling, callisthenics, judo and jiu-jitsu. Here is a sample of a few of the exercises, guaranteed to make a Y-man out of each one: Raise arms forward, sideward and down 50 times. Lying on mat, hands back of head, come up to sitting position and then back to mat 30 times. Lying on mat, face down, push up 30 times. Judo and Jiu-jitsu the Lieutenant learned as agent of the Bureau of Prisons Service of the United States Department of Justice.

And his teacher was a man who learned it from the Japs. "Jiu-jitsu is the humane method of self-defense, the Lieutenant explains: Judo is a vicious, killing offense. Im teaching the men Jiu-jitsu first, but we can use the dirty Jap methods against the Nips themselves, because in actual combat MPs often engage in hand-to-hand combat. Part of the jiu-jitsu course, includes training in such useful knowledge as Rescue of MP being Held Up at Point of Gun, methods of attack when opponent attempts a thrust with a knife or shoves a revolver into your back. Lt.

Huddleston thinks the men are coming along smoothly in this training. 0 course, he adds, they don't always need it in their work. Last week, for example, two MP were called to rescue a cat from a tree. It was a soldiers cat and therefore came within their authority. MPs dont like to become involved in home fights between a soldier and his wife, but if called upon to intervene they come in, using humane tactics, i They will, if needed, rescue women in distress and escort young giris home if threatened by mashers or prowlers.

As a special detail, they regularly patrol a certain parked car parked permanently behind a certain popular rendezvous. Deming tavern proprietors like to have the MP's around, to add dignity and respect. One of them has taken to feeding the men SIGVR STAMP NO. 9 GOOD TOR THREE POI NDS Sugar ration stamp No. 9 tli be good for the purchase of three pounds of sugar for home use between November 1 and Deermher 13.

TO THE VOTERS OF LUNA COUNTY Claude Irwin, Democratic candidate for sheriff of Luna County respectfully solicits your support and vote at the General Election, Tuesday November 3rd.

Canning in Luna County has been in full swing for severai weeks and continues at a high peak Jessie Woodbridge, home management supervisor for the Farm Security Administration, reported yesterday. FSA farm wives began planning their canning budgets early las Spring. They checked thei canning equipment and planted foods that would be expensive or i.arc to get this winter foods fall ol vitamines for the health of their families. women, spent the summer weeding their gardens, and now they are harvesting and canning for home use the greates: stores of food that ever lined their shelves. Greater than the cash savings estimated at about four times the cost of producing the food will be the effect on the health of families, Miss Wood-bridge believes.

During the winter FSA families w'ill eat wholesome fruits and vegetables because they are canning, on an average for each member of the family the following: 40 quarts of tomatoes; 40 quarts of assorted vegetables, 35 quarts of fruit, etc. 10 quarts of meat. Each member of the Average FSA family also has two or tnrpe bushels of stored food. More vegetables, such as carrots, potatoes, turnips, beets and so forth, will be stored this year, so as to save available jars for the food which needed to be canned. Miss Woodbridge predicts a record amount of canning of meat and meat products later on this fall during the butchering season.

PROMOTED TO CAPTAIN Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Wiese received word this week that their son Donald, who is stationed at Fort Benning, Georgia has been promoted to captain.

coffee to keep them in his establishment. The cafe owners can never tell when an MP will be handy as for example, last Saturday night when the Provost Marshal received a riot call. In one roadhouse, seven women were fighting over one soldier, who was taking a terrible beating. The civilian police work hand in glove with the Military Police. An MP is stationed 24 hours a day in the sheriffs office.

In an emergency the MP can hold a civilian for arrest, just as the civil polic ecan hold a soldier. But so well has the present system been functioning that both authorities take care of their own charges. Under actual combat conditions, the military poilce have the very important funtion of guarding enemy prisoners and bringing their own deserters or stragglers back to the line of duty. Incedentally, its the MP who conducts the first search and questioning of enemy prisoners. Youll be seeing more of the MPs as more men come into the Deming Base.

In case of trouble, they can be called at Deming 42. And if you do call them, here are the names of the men you're likely to meet: 1st. Sgt. Willie C. McIntosh.
