General Frank was very pleased with the appearance of the post and its clean physical condition. He pointed out that the Army Air Forces, more than ,any other branch of service, has a much greater responsibility when it comes to housekeeping because . of the fact that airplanes are precision equipment, and when in the air the lives of its crew are virtually wholly dependent on its ' - efficient performance. " He added that ASC depots, which service and maintain the , Air Forces flying equipment, must not and cannot risk the lives of Air Corps men by sending out planes which were the of unclean and disarranged shops and hangars on the ground. work-produ- Male Call 1 ct In compliance with a directive by Colonel Wolf, Chief Supply Di vision and in conformity with an nounced policy of Major General W.- H. Frank, commanding gen eral, Air Service Command, action is being taken to decentralize the Supply Division into various branches. Each branch will operate as a separate unit, similar to the under the Ogden Air Service Command.' It is contemplated that each branch will be organized in units containing property accounting, warehousing, receiving, shipping, inspection, and files. An officer will be placed in charge of the branch with the assistance of civilian supervisors. It is believed that by means of this organization it will bring about closer coordination in performing the functions pertaining to the supply division. Submitted by Mary M.

Doubtless, in every everything in is a considerable body of sentiment hold-- '' the there country, post ing that good army housekeeping is. time poorly spent, that work on the production line is more important than time and energy used In putting one's house in order and in keeping it in order. There are civilians who hold these views as well as men in the army's ranks. An examination below the surface of the proposition discloses how unsound such a policy would be. In the army, good house-keeping is a prime necessity. It bespeaks not only pride in the job t hand, but order and cleanliness are the very ingredients of efficiency. The periodical inspection plays its important part in the war effort by the very fact it compels the cleaning up of the post, its shop corners and useless accumulations of odds and ends of supplies which, otherwise, would have a tendency to grow Schedule Ping-PonBadminton and Horseshoe Jousts it -, Highlight news of the Mutual Benefit Society last week was the authorization by the Welfare Council of the payment of benefits totaling 3000 to the beneficiaries of the three members of the Society who passed away in April.
