Coi respondence exchanged between Gen eral Pershing and E. C. Carter, tn charge of the Y. M. C. A. with the army, resulted in this decision. Car ter wrote to General Pershing January 29th as follows: Dear General Pershing: A year and a half ago you re quested the Y. M. C. A. to under- take operations for post exchanges for the American Expeditionary Forces In order that "officers and enlisted men may not be taken away for that purpose from their j paramount military functions of training and fighting." As soon as hobtilttles ceased we raised with you the question ' whether time had not come for the Y. M. C. A. to be relieved of the operation of post exchanges la view of the fact that there was no longer the same pressing demand " on man power of the army for first raised the question with you It did not appear to you that it was I feasible In the best Interests of maximum service to the army that i a change be made.

The army Is nlro row pre paring for the delivery of all sup plies for post exchanges which her. tnfore have been imported, manufactured and delivered by the Y. M. C. A. In view of the changed situation I wish to know whether you do not think It would be possible for the army at a very early date to as sume full responsibility for the maintenance of post exchanges IhrouKhotit the American Expedi tionary Force? Very cordially yours. (Slftfied) E. C. CARTER. General Pershing Immediately acted upon the suggestion made by Carter and relieved the Y. M. C. A. of Its ta.k of maintaining the post exchanges.
