NEW YORK.—The reading habits, patterns and needs of men in the army are revealed in a survey in connection with the victory book drive, made by the New York Times among 23 army camps, posts and air stations. In answer to a nine-part question naire, morale officers, recreation officers, chaplains and public rela tions officers supplied detailed infor mation on reading, and particularly book reading in their camps. The survey indicates that the role of books in maintenance of morale and for recreation has been consid ered of such importance that the morale branch of the army and the service clubs have established li braries of varying size at all camps. Army officials say that they have found that through books men in the transition from civil to military life have been able to retain old in terests and to train for new duties. Time for Reading. The amount of reading in the army, as shown by the survey, equals if it does not surpass the per capita reading of civilians. On the average, it was reported, 20 of a group of 100 men could be expected to read one book every two weeks. The camp officials replied that in almost every case the men had time, the necessary comfort and facilities to read enjoyably. It was reported that as in private life, most of the reading was recrea tional, Sixty-five per cent of the books could be classified, it was said, as having been read for relax- . ation. Twenty-five of every 100 books read in camps were found to be | educational or informative. Another officer, commenting on “improvement” books, said that some applicable training such as typing, were in demand. Librarians and morale officials expressed the belief that “it would take men time" to get used to seri- ous reading in new conditions. Chairman of Wheat Division. f i 4 Agrivulture Committee.

Men in the United States army are receiving the best uniforms ever to be issued soldiers, and veterans of the last World war can well be envious of modern soldiers whose outer gar ments are trente I to shed water. The army jacket, worn both on and off the post, is treated chem ically to shed water and resist spots, stains and pe rspiration. The jacket is made of cotton poplin, lined with wool where added warmth is required Tightly woven and treated with “Zejan” at the textile mill, the pop lin can be made into a garment hav- ing many virtues. Only a driving rain will soak through the jacket. Non-greasy spots and even splashes of soup may be sponged off with a damp cloth. The coat also serves as a wind- breaker. it may be repeatedly dry- cleaned or laundered with only a slight change in its repellent prop erties. . AN AMERICAN SERGEANT A general picture of fairly well- | stocked shelves was given by the camps. The morale branch had supplied 5,000 books selected by the librarians to all larger camps. News- ! papers and periodicals were said to be plentiful in company day rooms and at recreation centers. The wide spread reading of feature, picture and fiction magazines was said not to have been brought about by a shortage of good books. A need for additional books of light fiction, detective novels, travel and adventure was reported and in some camps there are not enough I text and technical books to go around. Moral and political problem books were said to be in little demand. Books on actual war were report ed to have few readers. The survey showed that library facilities and reading rooms at camps were being enlarged to pro- vide better conditions, that more li- brarians, many coming from public libraries, were being added and that U.S.O. centers would provide li braries as well as the camps. | I A FIFTEEN YEAR OLD AMERICAN GIRL FOR ONE VEAR WROTE, EDITED AND PRINTED THE ONLY ENGLISH LANGUAGE PAPER IN GROZNY RUSSIA “THE ONLY CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR WHO SERVED IN THE FIRST WORLD WAR.” s„ell@Sönel Thing’ Effective Leadership For Oregon's War And Tax Problems. _ ELECT GOVERNOR ' Pd.
