Manila, Oct. 7. Brigadier General Kamsay D. Potts, commander of the de partment of Luson, today concluded an Investigation of growing discontent among the enlisted men of the Philip pine division of the army which has re sulted In the determination of hundreds of soldiers in the casual camp not to reenlist. A considerable amount of dissatisfac tion among the men has been brought to light by the unusually large numbers of sclOlers returning to the United States upon the expiration of their enlistments, lu. advance of their regiments. The eventh lnTantry will return home In June, and the twelfth in August At least 10 per cent of the men In these regiments have completed their three years' enlistment and are returning to the United States, leaving the compa nies greatly depleted. Some companies have as few as 20 men -each. General Potts' Investigation has shown that the men are dissatisfied chiefly be cause of the long marches they hare been forced to take under the tropical sun, and because most of them have had trcir health undermined by drinking bad water on these Journeys. The men also protesteJ against the practice of making them do the work of laborers at Corregldor island. They say mat native prisoners are required to do the same work. These prisoners are guarded by native eoldlers and they are d:eatltfied because they are i,ot as signed to guard duty Instead of the Filipinos. Two non-commlesloned offi cers 1rt ths seventh Infantry have bean "bueted" for refusing to do pick and shovel work. The matter has been appealed. Sev eral soldiers were found at the casual ctmp who had been overcome with beat while working at Corregldor. , An officer of the twelfth infantry la said to have taken the matter ip with the' authorities at Washington In an ef fort to , get the local order requiring soldiers to do -manual labor, rescinded.
