Needs of Troops Don't Change By BILL BOSS Canadian Press Staff Writer IN nOREA (C¢)--Ottawa has been assed for a little more of everyuung -- inciuding Canadian ginis--n a troop weliare report now on its way. | the report, prepared for Brig.!

Newspapers--' 'We req both English and French newspapers.' Present shipments go principally to hospitals. Troops see few of them. "We also require the comic Concert parties -- They should come out more frequently and be bilingual. (Canada sends one out every three to four months.) "They hould be limited to six artistes, concert parues and says though should be given to assigning an army band permanently to the theaire. it was prepared after a three- wéek survey of welfare facilities by maj. Anthony Condy of Spring- hil, N.S., senior Canadian welfare ofticer in Korea and Japan. VARIETY OF SUGGESTIONS alien gns of its recommenda- ns: Beer--A limited variety of Jap- anese beers is available at nom- inal prices. 'But a need exists for Canadian beer in the Far East, particularly for use in Canadian clubs and canteens." It suggests that the problems of getting Cana- dian beer to Korea for resale, and the probable cost of shipping, be studied. : Bands--"The posting of a Cana- dian military band to the theatre should be investigated. (The band of the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry is in Korea now on a five-week tour. It is the third Canadian Army band to visit the theatre on such a tour.) Books--The supply of pocket- sized books is adequate in English, non-existent in Frénch. "But hard- cover books are needed for the mobile library" in both languages. The mobile library is one bein set up by Allard to tour units an facilitate the exchange of books. -- 'Shipments Soild over the amount required." It said with at least two of them females." Larger groups are difficult to ac- commodate and it is not sible for them to tour the forward areas. Films -- No French films are available. "We are ti g to see if French films could obtained from Montreal and shipped on a regular basis." National film board films of Canadian life and Cana- dian newsreels would be most valuable." Condy's report said a minimum of five more Canadian Red Cros girls were peeded. SERVES AT TOKCHONG The one girl in Korea is at the 25th Canadian field dressing sta- tion at Tokchong. The report sug- gested that three of the requested five be posted to Korea and the other two to Kure, Japan. It also asked Ottawa tostudy the possibility of arranging cheaper telegram rates for the soldiers. Canadian soldiers in the line must pay the stiff commercial charges. Those able to get to United States Army post offices in Seoul can use the cheaper ser- vices provided for U.S. soldiers. | Troops in Japan «also use com- | mercial routes.
