American troops wero "gashed" today. It was a purely voluntary gassing, how ever, part of the battle-hardening process. Tho soldiers donned their gas masks for tho first time and were sent through regularly built "gas chambers" to meet various kinds of vapors affected by the enemy In his nt tacks. Then there were drills In the donning of the masks and their proper adjustment. Tho soldiers quickly caught the Idea and before long wero putting on the air filters In four or Ave seconds. Indicative of how close to the fulfillment of General retain' words that "the Ameri can troops will form an excellent fighting force within a very short time," Is the fact that one regiment today Is defending a system of trenches that is being "stormed" by the French. This Is mimicry, of course, but tho drill Is the closest approach to actual battle possible. Rear artillery Is not being u-sed, Its place being taken by rocket barrages. Tho troops aro following a systematic schedule of action In the "combat" Just the same as tho Allied troops. The drill was planned to accustom them to advances as well as the roslstanco of counter-attacks when they have captured an enemy trench A large delegation ot American officers aro continuing their stay upon the French front nnd their return Is Indefinite. The "Sammecs" aro very much pleased with the praise that General Pershing gave them. On his former visit the American commander-in-chief was very critical and free with his reprimands. Ills comment on Sunday showed his pleasure by his remarks upon the noticeable Improvement In the appearance and discipline of the men. TODAY'S RECRUITS Approval of the plan to give the people the full benellt of tho live-cent gaj reduction was voiced today by Or John 11 Lock Common Councilman of tho Thirty-first Ward "During thep times of great stres," said Doctor Lt.k.

If v.e m,,c for their full co-operation wc must eio their burdens In "every way possible one wiy to ngmen meir iiuruen is to do some thing to lower prices of the necessities of life 'Gas Is an Important necessity, and It Is a necessity that Is largely used by tho poor They use It fm cooking nnd also for heating wm-ii Klivy null imi money 10 uuy coal To give these people ninety-flvc-cent gas would be tendering them prent aR'lstance In com bating the hlgh-cost-of -living problem If the cltj can turn this reduction over to the people without hcrlously impilrlng its finances, It should do so." Dr. r 11 Crowe, Common Councilman from the Forty-sixth Ward, said: "I stand behind anv thing that will help the people In this era of high prices. To give this five-cent reduction .to the con sumer means that tho It j- corners a boon to thousands of families In Philadelphia who aro feeling the pinch ot hnrd times. "It will give tho people confidence to know that the city Is cu-operntlng with them They will feel kindly toward the city, and they will put their shoulders to the wheel and help In thw time of national stress.
