Joseph's cemetery, West Wyoming, where PARTING SHOTS showing results. We made a late start as is always the case. We were not fortified in thought or activity in meeting conditions as they have so alarmingly arisen. Camp visitors must take all these things into consideration in their estimate of the situation. THE BOYS themselves rarely complain of hardships or discomforts.

They realize attendant circumstances and make the best of things as Americans have always done. Their treatment at a harried government's hands is far better on the average than recruits have received in any generation known to history or certainly in the experience of any oldtimer. The physical work is hard, it should be to make real soldiers. Recreations are being added to an amazing degree. Food is of good quality and substantial in all respects.

Never have sanitation, medical attention, hospitilization or physical care matched the present. Soldiering in any capacity is not home life or normal existence. These facts the recruit soon learns and cheerfully. THE ARMY may be suffering shortages of certain kinds of material. It would be strange if there were no such shortages, when you consider that a year ago the country simply had no munitions industry at all.

Of one thing there is no shortage the volume of babble and gossip about such shortages. In an unusually timely and serviceable story, Paul Harrison, who has been touring army camps and writing about them for this newspaper through NEA Service, showed just how evil such talk may be. "They" say, Harrison tells, that there are no rifles to drill with, the boys have just the old World War artillery guns, there aren't enough tanks, and so forth and so forth and 60 forth. By J.

Fleming NOBODY ever finds out who are. The stories go the rounds, added to and dressed up by each person who thoughtlessly repeats them. And finally a large number of people become convinced that the army is not adequately equipped and cannot be properly trained. Isolated cases may be true. Certain shortages, especially of ammunition, are real enough.

Much old equipment has not yet been replaced by the new, which is on the way. The specific cases of which you hear may be real enough. The danger is that from constant repetition and embroidery of these incidents, a totally wrong impression may become widespread. IN GENERAL, we believe it is true, and we base our opinion on repeated reports from many men who have gone to the camps themselves to see, that equipment is sufficient for elementary training, and that new equipment is continually arriving in quantity. This is not to suggest that any truth about lack of equipment or poor conditions should be suppressed.

If your nephew writes you from Camp Whoozis that he's been there three weeks and hasn't got a rifle yet, it may be true. But find out how many others are in the same boat, and why. PEOPLE have a right to be assured that their boys in camp are properly equipped, fed, housed, and trained. There is excellent reason to believe that these things are all being done as fast as it is humanly possible to do them. There is a difference, of course, between neglect and inefficiency and a sheer lack of materials that havn't yet come off the production lines.

The former should be exposed and remedied. The latter is to an extent unavoidable; be patient. Above all, don't babble just for the sake of babbling. Restrain that perfectly human impulse. BEST Hopeful, friendly be and cheerful, And then show it.
