(United Press) The National Army will be well fed if preparation counts for aught. The general staff is working on a plan to feed the more than half million rookies who will assemble in the 16 cantonments for training next fall. The variety of the menu will necessarily be limited to the regular army ration. But it will be properly prepared and served. In recent wars the "grub" of the valiant volunteer has been the object of scandal. It was "embalmed beef" in the Spanish War.
