Knitted Helmets For Army Must Be
Of Olive Drab, .Gray For Navy
Confusion has arisen in many parts
of the United States in regard to or
ders that have gone out from the war
department in regard to the regula
tion uniform for officers and men in
the army, many of whom have not
been careful about the details of their
dress even when on duty, and this
confusion has resulted in rumors and
even in statements in the press that
knitted articles given by the Red
Cross and by Drivate Individuals
would not be allowed as part of a sol
dier's equipment Under this order.
Requests for information on this
subject have come to Southern divis
ion headquarters, as many Red Cross
chapters have spent large sums of
money given to knitting. According
ly, Z. Bennett Phelps, director of the
bureau of military relief, wishes to
make public certain sections of a
memorandum sent out from the head
quarters on the 30th division, U. S. A.,
at Camp Sevier, which is based on
information sent out by the adjutant
general by order of the secretary of
war.
"(c) Knitted woolen helmets, muff
lers and wristlets of olive drab color
may be worn when, in the opinion of
the immediate commanding officer
concerned, climatic conditions and
lack of sufficient other warm clothing
make it necessary. But when the
knit helmet is authorized to be worn,
the uniform that will in every case
be worn in addition to the helmet.
Woolen helmets and mufflers of oth
er colors than olive drab are absolute
ly prohibited.
The wearing of the knitted helmet,
muffler and wristlets is particularly
applicable, when necessary and ad
visable, in the case of the guard, driv
ers of wagons, trucks, automohiles.
etc., prisoners at work, fatigue de
tails, working parties and commands
on practice and other marches.
At formal ceremonies none of the
articles of clothing will be worn.
(d) Sweaters will not be worn as
outer garments. There is nn ahw.
tion to sweaters, especially thns r,f
olive drab material, being worn un-
uer trie shirt or blo.use.
It is suggested by division hPH.
quarters that Red Cross chapters hav
ing on nand a supply of grey wool
should make it into sweaters and
flocks and save the olive drab wool
which is very hard to eet for
hefmets, mufflers and wristlets.
TURN CASH INTO GUN FIRE
We fought and won the Spanish
war with 150,000 soldiers and $200,
000,000 bond issue. In men under
arms we now have ten times that
number. We issued ten times that
amount of bonds in the first Liberty
Loan. - We are proposing to spend
and loan to the allies in the first fis
cal year of the war $19,000,000,000.
From now until the end of this fiscal
year the treasury anticipates needing
$300,000,000 a week that is, the treas
ury has got to fight financially a
Spanish war every four days. That
indicates a money measure of the
size of this -work, but that is not the
real measure. We have just seen
that one might have plenty of money,
but an empty coal bin. In just the
same way the government can have
plenty of money, but an unequipped
army. This army cannot be equipped
as modern warfare demands if the
man power of the country is at the
same time called upon to produce all
of our ordinary comforts and luxuries.
It is just as plain as two and two
that all of us must make personal sac
rifices, must give up comforts and
luxuries, even necessary expenditures
that can be postponed, if there is to
be labor and material enough to equip
the army in time for it to fight while
It will do some good to have it fight.
In war the only effort that is of
any value is that -which is ultimately
translated into gun fire on the field
of battle. The gun fire that will win
this war cannot be delivered until all
America recognizes individual respon
sibility, until the whole people join in
the effort by giving up things that
they can do without, so that the labor
that would have been employed in
making those things can do work that
will ultimately result in gun fire. The
government has offered the opportun
ity to translate at once every one's
personal patriotism into the sort of
help that will win the war. Forego
buying something that is unneces
sary; loan the money you would have
used to the government by buying $5
war savings certificates. You will
thus have released labor, you will
have given credit to the government,
you will have acquired the best se
curity in the world, a United States
government bond. Frank A. Vander-lip.
