PERSHING American Field Commander Makes Recommendations After Close Study By Associate 3 Press Washington, Aug. 9.—Reduction of the strength of American army divi sions to the Europeon standard of 19,000 men and revival of the old army corps major tactical unit was recommended. It was learned to-day, by Major General Pershing, after a careful study of conditions at the front. American officers are convinced that sound military reasons Induced the French and British war oftlces to adopt this tactical formation for trench warfare. Reduction of the divisions means a big Job for the War Department. Much administrative work already completed probably will have to be thrown aside and done over. General Pershing's recommendations are posi tive, however, and the department's attitude is the same as It was toward General Funston during the Mexican trouble. The wishes of the men on the ground, on whom rests the re sponsibility for actual operations, will be met as far as is practicable. One effect of the reduction of both brigades, and divisions will be to cre ate many additional vacancies in the grades of major and brigadier gen eral. It has been found abroad that the 19,000-men division in trench war fare is about the maximum that can be handled by one headquarters. Trench fighting is, in reality, siege warfare on a huge scale. Operations, require detailed orders and the co-ordination of large bodies or troops and of artillery on a scale never dreamed of in previous wars. All this adds to the task of the corps, division and brigade commanders, each one of whom is conducting a battle of his own on his immediate front.

For Some time past there has been Sunday fishing re ported between Harrlsburg and the Maryland line and recently an arrest was made at Goldsboro when the game officers were considerably abused. Dr. Kalbfus In his letter, which has a fcjtate-wlde application, says: "I write you to-day in a matter that may be of interest to some of your readers, and refer to the dis position of some of our people to do as they please, regardless of the provisions of law, especially in the matter of hunting or fishing on the first day of the week, commonly called Sunday, contrary to the pro visions of law. "The first section of the game law of 1909, provides: "There shall be no hunting or shooting or chasing of game upon the first day of the week, commonly called Sunday.' This same provision is found In the new game law, Section 13. "Section 2, of the act of May 1, 1909, P. Li. 353, known as the fish law, controlling fishing within the Internal waters of Pennsylvania, among other things provides, 'that no fishing of any kind, or with any device shall be done by any person or persons on tho first day of the week, commonly called Sunday.' "An attempt was made In our Legislature during the session of 1915 to repeal Uils provision. The bill passed both the Senate and House, but was vetoed Governor Brumbaugh, who, in his message re lative to his veto, said he could not endorse this idea, but served notice then and there that any bill coming to him during his term of office con taining a like provision would re ceive tho same treatment he was according this bill in question. So, this provision remains on our books, and is the law of Pennsylvania after careful consideration by our chief executive. "During the session of 1915, a bill was passed making It the duty of the officers of the Departments of Forestry, of Fisheries and of the Game Commission to help each other in their work. This bill was amended by the Legislature of 1917 in a manner that made the officers of either of these departments, who refuse or neglect after notice to en force the laws relating to either of the departments other than the one to which he specially belonged, liable to a cash penalty for the first and second offenses and to dismissal from State service for the third of fense, so that to-day, under the law of this State, game protectors have no discretion as to whether they will or will not enforce these pro visions of the forestry or the fish laws of this Commonwealth, or give place to some one who will do this duty, under his oath and the law. That is all there Is to It, and so long as that provision forbidding hunting or fishing on the first day of the week, commonly called Sunday, re mains upon the statute books of Pennsylvania, It Is the sworn duty of those connected with the depart ments named, to Insist that these laws be obeyed. This new provision has added several hundred helpers to the limited force formerly at the command of the Department of Fisheries, and Insofar as the officers of the Game Commission are con cerned, they will try to perform their duties fairly and reasonably and en tirely without personal feeling or animosity towards anyone. "We do not want your money. We are not trying to persecute any one, but we shall try to do our duty fairly under the provision of law, and in accordance with the thought of our Governor, and I do hope that those Disposed to either violate this law themselves, or those who may be disposed to aid or abett those who may violate the law, will refrain fin the future from the use of epithets or threats, and also from attempts to deceive and mislead our officers, as was the case at Goldsboro last Sunday, where two of our officers attempted to en force the fish law. "The southern bank of the Sus quehanna river, between Dauphin and other counties on the river bor der, is under the Jurisdiction of Dauphin county. Offenders, when ar rested, will be brought to Dauphin county for trial. Section 24 of the before-mentioned fish law, among other things, provides that arrests may be made without warrant when offenders are caught in the act of violating the fish law. Officers are directed to arrest on Sunday, or on a holiday, 'in which case the person or perfcns arrested shall be taken before the proper officer and pro ceeded against on the first lawful day following the arrest,' and such person or persons so arrested on Sunday may be Imprisoned until the proper time for hering the cae. It is not our desire to put anyone in prison. Section 25 of the same act, among other things, provides that any person who shall by threat, menace or force, or In any other manner, attempt to deter or prevent any fish warden, or any person au thorized to make arrests for viola tion of the fish laws, from enforcing or carrying into effect any provision of this act, or who shall resist ar rest or the seizure of boats or nets Illegally used, shall on conviction thereof, as provided in Section 27 of this act, be subject to a penalty of one hundred dollars, or In default of payment of such fine shall be com mitted to the county jail for a period of one hundred days. "The violent and abusive language used by certain Individuals, at Goldsboro laat Sunday towards our officers when they arrested a man caught In the act of fishln* on Sun day, together with other words used to Intimidate or prevent these of ficers from doing their duty, in our opinion, came perilously near a violation of the provisions of this Section 25, just quoted, and if in dulged in again or repeated, will surely result In the matter being tried out."

HOOVER TO BE NAMED AS FOOD DICTATOR [Continued From First Page.] will be the appointment by the President of Herbert C. Hoover as food administrator. The Food bill passed through the last stage of legislative enactment at 4 o'clock this afternoon when it was finally adopted by the Senate in form previously approved by the House. The vote was 66 to 7. Those voting against the conference re port were: Democrats: Hardwick, I 101 l is and Reed,- Republicans, France, Gronna, LaFolJette and Penrose. Immediately after the final vote on the control bill the Senate by a viva voce vote also approved the con ference report on the first admin istration food bill, providing for a food survey and appropriating to stimulate production. Han on I.louor Prompt appointment of Herbert Hoover as food administrator and immediate operation under the legis lation is expected to follow. In ad dition to its comprehensive provis ions for control of food, fuel, fer tilizer and farm equipment, the con trol bill carries drastic prohibition features. Thirty days after It Is ap proved It will be unlawful to use foodstuffs in the manufacture of dis tilled beverages or to impart dis tilled spirits for beverage purposes; and the President will be empower ed to commandeer for military pur poses distilled liquors now held in bond and to regulate or restrict the use of foods In tho manufacture of wine and beer.

AMERICAN ARMY GETS READY FOR TRENCHES [Continued From First Page.] quickly and as thoroughly as pos sible so that when called upon to act as instructors to succeeding units as they arrive they will be found eminently qualified. A great deal of this earnestness and this will to do is largely the result of the en thusiasm of the young officers who but recently joined the colors and have taken up the business of war with a courage and determination that means volumes to the future of their country. Under the best circumstances the training of soldiers in the ever changing methods of modern war is a labor requiring months of pa tient, painstaking effort. A thousand of the most valiant and valuable men in the British army, for instance, did not put a foot in France until after they had had a whole year of train ing at home. On the other hand, Germany called up boys of 17 years at the beginning of last September and sent many of them into the trenches after only six weeks of infantry training, chiefly in marching and close order drill. This was possible because these boys were merely distributed among old, seasoned troops—stop-gaps In th& ranks of decimated divisions. Six months is nearer the ideal training period, but this rule applies to armies which have been fighting three years and have all the ma chinery established through which the men are passed smoothly and unendingly toward the front. It is not known how much longer tho French instructional division will remain with the Americans. The lat- 'AUGUST 9, 1917. ter are proving: so apt and the train ing camps v aro so well established that undoubtedly It will be only a comparatively short time when but a few picked French officers and non commissioned officers will be re tained to assist In the training. Morale Is Factor Students of the war, which has now entered Its fourth year, are con vinced that th 6 morale of the troops and the morale of the nations of the entente will prove to be the final fac tor in deciding the titanic struggle. The morale of the American soldiers In France can easily be estimated by the avidity with which they take up the training In offensive tactics as ? igainst defensive work. The latter s very essential naturally, but it is ( a phase of training likely to prove a ! but Irksome to troops imbued with the offensive spirit, as are the Ameri cans. They are frankly sincerely i anxious, most of them, for their turn i in the trenches to come, even if at! first It Is only a temporary" sojourn ! at the front for training purposes. ! Anxious for Battle The men are anxious for a glimpse of war and there is no doubt that (after they get it it will add infinite ! izest td their future training and to | their ability to train future divisions. The men still are far enough from the line to hear or see little that has to do with real fighting. Some en thusiasts at the camps have asserted that they could hear the drumming of the big guns at the front, but there is little doubt that imagination had something to do with tho acute ness of their ears. A brief tour of duty in the trenches will explain much to them, however, and it will make them appreciate to tho full the great deal of training which they now do not wholly understand.
