diana Military Area have been ordered to report at Ft. Harrison Sunday for a one-day contact camp. The artillery personnel of the Reserves will be the second group to attend a contact camp at the post. Reserve officers will be given classroom and field training, ; Infantry Reserve officers from the Indiana military area attended Ft. Harrison camp and received instruction last Sunday. The Reserve officer camps are being held throughout the country to increase peace-time training. Col. G. H. Davidson, post executive, said today he expected to receive orders to move the Ft. Harrison personnel to Camp McClellan, Ala., for intensive training about Nov. 15. Notice of an increased winter training program for National Guard units has been received by officers. The program calls for an increase from one to two drill nights each week with an additional one week of field training and maneuvers between now and Jan. 1.

The moment they have found a soft spot, cut through it like cheese with your slashing “carburetor cavalry” on wheels—tanks, armored cars, trucks, motorcycles.
Advanced 175 Miles a Day And so, advancing 175 miles a day, the German tanks did in three weeks what the British and French thought would take four months. That i§ the lesson learned by the U. S. Army's General Staff as it eagerly searches the smokeladen horizon of what was free Poland. This demonstration of 1939 war-
fare was given by special Nazi units, |
each of 10,000 men, moving in a thousand motor vehicles, half tanks. Meaning that Germany has, in these
divisions alone, at least 4000 armed |_
and armored vehicles. And what have we? One mechanized cavalry brigade, with 130 tanks and fully armored cars. - - There cre today more tanks in one of Germany's ‘“Panzerdivisionen,” than in our whole army, especially since we scrapped the World War tanks we had kept all these years. Tank Advocates Get Action Recent days have seen action. Recommendations are being considered - that our single brigade be multiplied into four divisions, strong as a “Panzerdivision” one for each Army area—Northeast, South, Midwest, Pacific. Each division would have 10,000 men of whom half would ride in "trucks, armed with the new Grand sub-automatic rifle; also engineers and an anti-tank detachment. Tanks are needed not alone, for sweeping cavalry raids but to help infantry. So the Army has orderad 329 of a new 12-ton light tank. Recently, too, there rumbled in the

Tanks High on Army's ‘Shopping List; Havoc in Poland Stresses Radio Needs

The quality is fine but the quantity—well, when present orders are filled, we shall have fewer than a thousand tanks. That is about a fifth the strength of Germany, a sixth that of Russia, a fourth that of France.
wire systems also has heightened the American Army’s regard for the radio. For Poland depended too much upon a nervous system of wires. Not enough had she learned to pigce it out -with the sign language—radio, radiotelephone and other means. It is hoped that the Army’s latest radiotelephone chirstened the “walkie-talkie” will help solve the problems of modern warfare. There is still another important means of combatting the stunning effects of a lightning war. It is a neat 16-pound portable transmitter through whose microphone a soldier can send the dots and dashes of radio code. It transforms the sound into invisible infra-red light, and directs
it to a receiver from which it issues
in long and short whistles.

RETONGA SCORES A REMARKABLE VICTORY FOR MRS. JACKSON
MRS. ROSA JACKSON
Digestive Troubles and Pains In Hands and Ankles Had Resisted Other Treatments For Fourteen Years. Could
Not Walk at Times.
One outstanding feature in the sensational success of Retonga is the extraordinary number of men and women who happily report that the medicine freed them of years of suffering that every other means tried had failed to reach. Mrs. Rosa Jackson, resident of 934 Elm St., Indianapolis, declares the famous roots, herbs, and barks medicine freed her of troubles that had stubbornly resisted other treatments for fourteen years. Mrs. Jackson was born and has lived her entire life at her present address; she is a member of Chapter No. 131, Eastern Star, and has hundreds of friends throughout the city. Discussing her happy restoration by Retonga, Mrs. Jackson said: “Regardless of what I ate my stomach would fill with gas until my heart would flutter and jump and I would have to fight for
breath. For weeks at a time I spent most of my nights sitting in the swing on my front porch be-
cause sleep was impossible.
My hands and ankles swelled and pained me so bad at times I could not walk. They felt like somebody was jabbing me with an ice-pick. I took everything and did everything, but I did not seem to improve. : “One day my druggist sdid: ‘Why don’t you try Retonga; it is a wonderful medicine?’ I have known him for years and have great con-
fidence in him, so I bought a bottle. That first bottle of Retonga did me so much good I took three more. Now every one of my former troubles is gone and I eat anything, sleep fine all night long, and haven’t a pain left anywhere. I feel like a brand new person. To anyone suffering as I did, let me urge you to get Retonga. The medicine is‘ wonderful.” Listen to the Retonga program on WIRE at 6:15 every morning except Sunday. The special Retonga ‘representative ‘at Hook’s Dependable Drug Store, S. E. corner Illinois and Washington Sts. is explaining this famous herbal compound to scores daily.
