mander will do Its utmost to live
up to the reputation of the old 91st
of World war I fame, Maj. Gen.
William G. Livesay of Camp Adair
paid tribute both, to the old end
the new division in an address be
fore the Salem. chamber of . com
merce Monday noon. He put his
stamp- of approval on the. youth
of today, about whose ability to
-take it there had been ques
tion.. The 91st, which was activat
ed at Camp White over a year' ago,
and was moved to Camp Adair
following, summer maneuvers is
finishing its training, but the gen
eral said they; hadno idea when
or where the division would be
ordered into' combat sectors.
He described 'briefly the train
ing of the modern army in explaining-why
so much time was con
sumed between induction and go
ing into battle. First, the recruit
is trained as a soldier, then groups
of soldiers from the squad on up
to the regiment There is a period
of - training fin combined opera
tions of infantry and the artillery
and ' other elements.' Then come
maneuvers simulating battle con
ditions for divisions. , V ,
Gen.' Livesay spoke a" word for
the foot-soldier, whose work is less
glamorous than that of mechanized
brances of service, but absolutely
essential to clinch victory. He also
praised the 'work of the army in
planning for the war, which has
seen expansion :of the army from
165,000 men to eight million men
in four years., A? for the future he
warned that peace will not be as
sured until nations came through
long . cooperation to regard war
between them as unthinkable, as
is now the case with the United
States and Canada.
Gen. Livesay was accompanied
to. Salem by Brig. Gen. William E.
Crist, assistanCNdivision command
er, Col. JYjP. Danovin chief: of
