VALUE OF INFANTRY EMPHASISED
♦ LESSON FROM WARS IN SPAIN AND CHINA (Received December 6, 11.30 p.m.) WASHINGTON, December 5. The Army Chief of Staff, General Malin Craig, in his annual report, stated that the wars in Spain and China demonstrated that tanks and aviation were valuable auxiliaries to infantry, but for a decision in war "we must still look to the man on foot. New arms can aid him, but they cannot replace him."
