Carter, in charge of association operations with the Aawriean Expeditionary Forces, pay a splendid tribute to the work whteh this agency accomplished under extreme difficulties and handicaps. "The T.

C. Carter, in harge at the Y. M. 0. A. with the army, reenltad In this decision. Carter wrote to General Pershing January tfth aa follows: Dear General Pershing: A year and a half ago you the T. M. C. A. to undertake eperatteas for poet exchanges for the American Expeditionary Feres to order that "officers and ee Hated men may not be taken awyy for that purpose fro their ren-Asr- - institn-- i tions and religious services were maintained, which were attended by ninny millions of natives Eighty thousand dollars will he used for temperance and prohibition work, especially in foreign lands, in which American brewers and distillers are to begin operations as soon as their plants are closed down In this country. Nearly a million dollars will be np preprinted for disabled preachers, and ' - pai amount military functions training and fighting." As soon as hostilities ceased w raised with you the question whether time bod not come for the T. M. C. A. to be relieved of the operation of post exchanges In view of the fact that there was no longer the same pressing demand on man power 4of the army for training and fighting. When we first raised the queetion with you it did not appear to you that it was feagible in the beat interest! ot maximum service to the army that a change be made. Now the situation is materially altered. Recent general order from main headquarters and requests from commanding officers have laid on the Y. M. C. A. Increased responsibilities in promoting educational, athletic and entertainment activities in the American Expeditionary Force. This Is placing a rapidly 'inci easing burden upon our personnel.. The army is also now preparing for the delivery of all supplies for post exchanges which heretofore have been imported, manufactured and delivered by the Y. M. C. A. In view of the changed situation I wish to know w hether you do not think it would be possible for the . army at a very early date to assume fnll responsibility for the maintenance of post exchanges throughout the American Expedi' tionary Force? Very cordially yours, 5 (Signed) E. C. CARTER. General Pershing immediately acted upon the suggestion made by Carter and relieved the Y. M. C. A. of its task ot maintaining the post exchanges. He said: HOUSECLEANING and when you are ready come in and see our big line of The Prices are Right Central Lumber & Hardware Co. 2, and Displayed another million will be used to In- -' crease preachers salaries. About three millions are needed for special work In American cities and among immigrant populations and lumberjacks and for work among Indians, Mexicans and other depressed peoples, and for relief work In the sparsely settled sections of the coufl-try- . Presbyterian women are to raise nearly two million dollars for educational and social work In this country. Half a million will be used for building new Presbyterian churches and another half million for educational and religious work among negroes. ' Nearly a million is to be spent for general religious education and theological training, half a million for Sunday School work and religious literature and about one hundred thousand for spcblal mens work and general evangelism. Twenty-fivmillion dollars will be spent by the local Presbyterian churches for their general community e work. My Dear Mr. Carter: I have received your letter of January 29th asking whether. In vi,ew of present changed situation. It would be possible for the army to assume full responsibility tor Appropriations Act which the President has just signed. Besides increasing by $200,000,000 the total fund available under the Federal Aid Roads Act, the new law' makes available for expenditure by the Secretary of Agriculture $9,000,000 for roads and trails within or partly within the Forests. The law also authorizes the Secretary of War to transfer to the Secretary of Agriculture material, equipment, and supplies suitable for highway improvement and not needed by the War Department. While most of this will be distributed among the commissions of the highway States for use dh Federal Rid road projects, not t? exceed 10 per cent may be reserved by the Secretary of Agriculture for use in building National Forest roads or other roads constructed under liis direct supervision. The $9,000,000 fund may be used for maintenance as well as The survey and construction. new legislation, like the Federal aid roads act, makes the building of roads and trails necessary for the use and development of National Forest resource:;, or desirable for the proper administration, protection, and improvement of any Forest where can local contributions be obtained; but in addition to this it contains a new' feature of much importance. The newr feature permits the Secretary of Agriculture withof local ofout the ficials to build and maintain any road or trail within a National Forest which he finds necessary for the proper administration, protection, and improve- -' ment of such Forest, or which in his opinion is of national importance. In the view of forestry officials this law' is the most important step ever 'taken for rapid development - of a National Forest roads system, and will be of 'inestimable benefit to' the maintenance of post exchanges 'throughout American Expeditionary Force. As you correctly elf te, the Y. M. C. A. undertook the management of post exchanges at my request at a time when it was of greatest importance that no available soldier should be taken away from vital military functions of training and As reasons which imfighting. pelled me at that time to request you to undertake this wcrk no longer exist, I am glad to approve your suggestion in reaching this conclusion. Consideration has been given to new burdens In connection. with entertainment, athletic activities and education that you have assumed. I have accordingly given dliections that army units themselves take over and operate their own post exchanges. In making this change permit me to thank you for the very valuable services and assistance which the Y. M. C. A. has rendered to the American Expeditionary .Force In handling thflse exchanges. Handicapped by shortage of tonnage and ; land transportation the Y. M. C. A, has, by extra exertion, served the army better than could have been expected, and you may be assured that its aid hae been a large factor In the final great accompUeh-meat- s of the American army.
