WASHINGTON, Oct. 21 VP)
Nothing ho happened in Europe
yet to change the conviction of
the war department that "hord,
well trained, efficient marching
Infantry supported by all other
arms, clinch the decision of the
modern battlefield."
Thnt, boiled down to Its es
sence, would necessarily mean
that the war department still re
gurds tho tough, long winded,
hard fighting infantry as the
good right, arm of its fighting
forces, "
It doesn't matter how the In
fantry goes from here to there.
It may cross a county, stato or
country by train, airplane or
truck. But after it gets to the
scene of action, it stands up on
its own two feet and fights with
rifle and bayonet.
As General George C. Mar
shall, the chief of staff, described
it, the Infantry is a "hard bitten
service where the men have to
slough through the mud and do
not get much publicity; they do
not photograph well." But they
are tho men upon whom rest the
winning or losing of battles.
Consequently, tho training
program is working toward the
development of 45 infontry-ar-tillery
divisions. This will pro
vide almost four infantrymen for
but cloudy near coust: moderate
west to northwest wind off the j every one motorized or in the
coast; gentlo to moderate west-: cavalry. There will be ten arm-
erly wind over Washington and
inland waters.

In company with a number of

vice ended a four-duy Inspection
tour of the Cascade area with
lunch Friday noon nt Summit
lodge. The group was conducted
through the Deschutes national
forest by Supervisor Ralph W.
Crawford of Bend. They spent
an interesting dny at tho Pringlc
Falls Experiment station. Tho
group numbered 25 us they re
turned to the Wlllametto valley
by way of the new Willamette
highway, six others hiivlng re
turned to Portland via Bend Bnd
Waplnitiu,
orcd and two cavalry divisions.
And, of course, there will be the
nir force.
But it is to the infantry that
most of the men Inducted into
the service through the selective
draft will f,o at the outset. Some
of those especially adapted by
aptitude or special training will
filter through into other
branches of tho service. But by
and large, the infantry will claim
most of tho recruits.
Tho tank corps, cavalry, air
corps and most of tho moro mod
ern military creations that have
cvolvod from tho war in Europe
are agencies that must bo oper
ated by the professional soldier.
It takes years of training to per
form the tasks any of these di
visions arc called upon to do.
Tho man going into the army
under' compulsion for one year
of service can hardly be assigned
to training in the handling of
anti-aircraft and anti-tank guns.
