FED SEVEN AND A HALF
MILLION SOLDIERS A DAY
• Sir John Steven Cowans, quarter-
master general of forces) the matt who
fete and clothed the British army and
kept it fit duringthe war, an author
• itative report says, about to retire. It
is stated that, upon his retirement,
which was due three years ago, he will
take up an important industrial posia
tion, If this ;is the ease, he should
make very good ni it, for his extraord-
inary war record has revealed this
brilliant soldier of long experience as
not less than a genius in administra-
tion and commercial knowledge.
With the possible exception of oer
own, no army was evbr so well clothed,
fed, lodged and medically treated as
the British fortes have been during
the last 4tt years, and for practically
all this work, Sir John Gowans, who,
at 57, holds the rank of lieutenant,
general, has been responsible.
Re has had to feed 7,500,000 men a
day.
When the war broke out, there was
barracks accommodation in the Unit-
ed kingdom for fewer taan 180,000
troops. Within nine months, aceom-
Iodation had to be found for 1,500,000
On the face °fit, that taelelooked next
to impossible, but Sir John Cowans
achieved it. Then having been housed
the soldier had to be ',clothed. The
normal requirements of boots for the
army was 245,000 Pairs a year. Sir
John found that very quickly milliorts
would be needed every year, and some-
how he get them.
Although food prices have risen
tremendously in the past few years,
the British soldier's meat' ration has
cost less than one-half what it did in
the South African war. Such an econ-
omy, needless to say, was the result
,only of tireless personal enterprise
and foresight.
• Born in 1842, General Sir John
Cowans has been in the army for 38
years, or since 1881, when he joined
the rifle briade. He went to India
in 1906 as director of military educa-
tion in the Indian army, and later be-
came director of staff duties ad train-
ing at army headqiiarters there and
commanded the presidency brigade at
Calautta from.4908 to 1910. He then
returned to England as direttor gen-
• eral of the territorial forces, itt which
capacity he did valuable work. It is
an additional feather in his cap that he
has been quartermaster general only
since 1912. He was entitled to retire
three years ago, but preferred to carry
on.
The quartermaster general has to
make the necessary arrangements for
the supply and transport of stores to.
the troops. He has to see, not only
that there is food and clothing enough
and to spare, but that the postal ser-
vice of the army is ..kept up properly
and that there are plenty; of horses
and men to look' after them. He is
officially the third member of the army
council, the chief of the imperial gen-
area staff and the adjutant general of
the forces alone having precedence of
hint. The only word that describes
this work is stupendous.
Every biscuit, or cracker, served, out
in the trenches at the front or itt the
training camps at home, every button
sewn on a tunic, every pick and,hovel
required by tbe sappers and miners
has had, in the firs e instance, to be
provided by the department of which
he is the chief.
Perhaps the enterprise of Sir Jelin
Cowan's department in preventing
waste is the most remarkable of all
his works. In the. early deers of the
war there 'were constant and discon-
certing rumors of waste of food in the
big camps. But once Sir John Cowan
had taken the queseion in hand the
rumors died down, and the army itself
set a fine example to civilians in its
• economy in baying and Cooking food,
and in utilizing all waste sabstances.
Until 1911, the feeding of' the Brit-
ish army was left to contractors --
caterers who bargained to supply so
• much food of a certain quality at so
much ahead. To -day contractors are
dealt with only to a limited extent,
aid even where meals, are still supplied

his appointment to an editorial posi-

there he went to the important Koen-

choice for the position of Minister of

moment he assumed power, Noske

turbance, There was some reluct-
ance to accord it, as it was khown
that Noske" believed in. stern meas-
ures. But the' situation s became
worse and Noske had his Way. Two
weeks ago he summoned 20,000 troops
to the Germaa capital and since their
arrival things have happened. The
first order issued by Noske after he
had received authority from Weimar
to suppress disorder by whatever
means he thought best read as follows:
