MAN POWER STILL IE EXPERT CONTENDS Secondary Value of New De vices Is Proved in Spain and China, Asserts Chief of World War Artillery ANN ARBOR. Mich, (HP) Col. Henry W. Miller, chief of Amertctn heavy artillery during the World war, finds proof In the Chinese snd BpanUh wars of his contention that bombers and tanks and other high priced Instruments of modern war fare are largely a waste of money. MUler now Is head of the Univer sity of Michigan department of me chanical and engineering drawing and Is considered an authority on artillery. War In China and Spain has dem onstrated, he believes, that the com mon soldier with his rifle or ma chine gun still la the determining factor In winning battles. He points to China's surprising stand analnst Japan as proof that giant bombing planes, spectacular flame - throwers, motorized cavalry and artillery are useless against an entrenched force of Infantry. "You may lay down a barrage ol heavy artillery until It seems no living thing could survive," Miller said, "yet the enemy will appear in force from the ground to meet your Infantry advance. "Bombing ground troops from the i air Is more costly, and even less ef fective. Bombers should be luted only against cities, factories, rail centers, munition depots and concentration camps." Miller predicted that the "human factor" eventually would decide the 61no-Japanese war. "I think that military men will agree," he said, "that the Chinese soldier In his padded coat,-holding his trenches with mnchlne gun and Theater of War Shifts From Shanghai TO HKIH6 i n ia b i a isi c-i L-i jr- F ri saw Ditl vahM...JoutU il.if ,ond rloubU tonvanlaiual That TIN CDOWN Own In At rnlnt mw flaf packo. i ClUBlNlMI . f I 1 Ml Three Japan er.fi column were reported moving, as Indicated by arrows townrd Knshlnft, SiinklunK and Mlnhang.

"It the defending force can keep up a supply of food and small am munition, the result may surprise those who favor a program of me chanisation and mo tori eat Ion." Miller weighed the new Instrument of warfare against what he considers the four factors essential to a suc cessful army and concluded that they were virtual lv i tour necessary qualifications aret 1. Ability to obLulu ..iiismit Intelligence. a. Ability to deliver force, either by surprise or by Impact. 3. Ability to service troops In the field. 4. Ability to hold gains. Plane Use Limited. Miller believes that, as far as these essential functions of an army are : concerned, such weapons as airplanes. giant guns, "wheeled fortress" tanks 1 and bombing devices have little prac tical value. He conceded the airplane's ex tensive usefulness in obtaining in formation, but Insisted that Its field should be limited. Both of the wars now In progress. Miller believes, already have demon strated the overwhelming Importance of the man In the trench his abil ity to withstand the hardships ot warfare, his Immunity to disease and hta. fighting spirit. "Japan's present desperation," he said, "Is understandable. In addi tion, Oriental face-saving demands an early and decisive victory. Yet it Is extremely doubtful whether the war machine which Japan has elabo rated at such pa In and coat will gain much headway over several hundred thousand coolies In their muddy trenches. "China's 'good earth' has a new and very definite meaning from the military point of view," Miller said: O. Cummlngs, contemporary poet, Is the author of a book with out a title.

BOY. 12 DIET OF PHILADELPHIA (UP) Medical men said It waa unusual and pertenced mothers accepted It as a phenomenon when 13-year old Morton Mandell said he preferred string besns, carrots and spinach to Ice cream, cake and candy.

The boy weighed 173 pounds when he entered Children's Heart hospl tsl in June, Is down to 148 pounds now but must touch 115 normal for his age and height before he can abandon his diet. "The fellows used to make fun of me because I waddled." Morton said. "But they've atopped laughing now, and I feel plenty better. Give me some more spinach, string beans and carrots."
