Hard to Finish Plans
1st Cavalry Division at Ft Bliss,
Texas, in 1939, General Joyee was
promoted to the grade of Major
General, Regular Army. Following
large maneuvers in Texas and
Louisiana he was designated to
command the IX Service Command
with headquarters at Ft. Lewis,
Wash. On April 12 he opened his
office at Ft. Douglas, Salt Lake
City, Utah.
"Individual self-respect and pride
of organization are indispensable
factors in the building of morale,”
the General has said. "Discipline in
the Ninth Service Command will be
reasonable and flexible but never
lax. It must be so developed in the
Services of Supply that it results
in the ultimate of pride, efficiency
and esprit de corps.”

the civilian community that we will
prove by our conduct in this area
that we have only one concern, and
that is success in battle. Wu hope
that they reciprocate by fostering
a very high morale in the troops
that visit their towns.
“The members of the press have
the morale of the nation in their

Division Is Activated
At Tuesday Ceremony
Dedication ceremonies for the
soldier center at Monmouth, origi­
nally set for Sunday, September 20,
have been necessarily postponed un­
til Sunday, September 21, at 4 p. m.
The delay has resulted from a
lack of help to get the building in
order, and from a shortage of lum­
ber for building benches and other
equipment. The peak of the har-
vest season has consumed a great
deal of labor.
It is believed that September 27
will prove a more propitious date Ma jor H. B. Henning
