SIGNIFICANT FIGURES GIVEN United States Has Qas Mask That j Fully Protects the Wearer—One L- Concern Turns Out Hundred Hand 1 Grenade* a Minute. * i (From CommltU. on Publio^lnformation.) ! Washington.—ln the midst of the 'discussions of peace. Assistant Secre \ tary of War Benedict Crowcll has 1 made public statistics to demonstrate that the United States has not abated its efforts or ceased Its preparations to prosecute the war to a victorious . conclusion. "A proof thatthere Is not the est relaxation'," said Assistant Secre- j tary Crowell, "is found In the fact | that congress has Just been asked to Increase by $1,100,000,000 Its appro-1 prlatlons for heavy cannon. The en-1 etny Is being driven back and this is 1 the best time to Increase our pres sure. It would be tho worst time to pause. This applies to civilians as well as to the military forces. It Is not the time to question when or how the end of the war will come." Y - Assistant Secretary Crowell said that an idea of the Immensity of th# supplies required by a single brauch of our focpes overseas, for which ad ditional finances are necessary, Is In dicated by the shipment of materials from this country to France by the engineer corps up to August 81, 1918. These shipments Included 277,000 tons of Mils and accessories for stand ard and narrow gauge track, 46,000 tons "of structural steel, 7,000 tons of corrugated Iron, 16,000 tons of barbed wire, 17|600 tons of metal building ma terials, 6,300,000 square yards of camouflage materials —wire netting, fish netting and burlap, pontoon equip ment for three divisions, and 57,000 tons of lumber, ties, stringers and plies. In addition to these Supplies, large quantities of engineering materials have been purchased also In England, France and Switzerland, Assistant Secretary Crowell pointed out The aggregate tonnage of these purchases up to June 30, 1010, he estimated at more than 600,000 tons. . Hundreds of thousands of tons of supplies are on tho docks In this coun try waiting transportation abroad, As sistant Secretary Crowell said, but the chips to carry them are being pro duced. There was n very large In crease In ships In September, be said. Motor trucks must be llhlpped "knocked down" and distributed among different vessels, the assistant secretary explained. This Is done to meet' the demands of the shipping peo ple. Locomotives are shipped In two ways—completely "set up" and "knocked down," Those that are ship ped "set up" are landed and steam away under their own power. More than 6,000 motor trucks were sent taJTrance In September, the as sistant secretary announced. The number would have been much sasaller If they had been forwarded "set up." Employees of the Single Service corporation of Nsw York were recent ly commended by MaJ. Oen. C. C. Wil liams, chief of ordnance, for having attained a production of more than 100 hand grenades a minute. The grenade manufactured by this con cern is of the "offensive type," which is usod by Infantry when making an attack to "clean up" the enemy's trenches and other systems of de fense. ■ The third million of grenades made by this company was shipped to France in the middle of last month, having been produced In exactly one month's time. In tho week ending ' September 14. the plant shipped a total of more than 800,000 —which was at the rate of 50,000 a day, Saturday . being counted as four-ninths of a day. This record was attained notwith standing that the plant was closed down ahead of time on September 12 fo permit employees to register for the draft The maximum production was reached Friday, September 18, when 0&200 grenades were turned out. Blm plo as It appears when completed. It , requires twenty-five distinct opera tions to make • grenade. i Report* to tbe United States fuel administration disclose that tho sav ing of gasoline through the discontinu ance of pleasure motoring on Sunday has aggregated between 660,000 and '700,000 barrels. The requirement* In j France continue heavy, and it is ex pected further derivations of Sunday .driving may be necessary. The United States fuel admlnlstra : tlon baa announced that pending an ln veatlgatlon Into the Increase of 20^ per cent In the number of coal and Coke ; distributors, In the l*at seven months, |BO additional license* to distribute ! t&eea claaaea of fuel will b« Issued. It 1* believed that many of thoae who engaged In tbe business of distributing | coal and coke since tbe adoption of the purchasing agent's commission pltm laat March, have contributed neither skill ncr experience to the distribution of coal in a way to insure the suer*as fnl prosecution of the war. German forces opposing the advance of tbe American line on the Lorraine front have brought into play every method of defense considered effec tive In modern warfare, and In par ticular they are making heavy use of poison gas. Pershing's men have been unceasingly bombarded with "mos> tard" shells and every effort has been msde to drench American position* 'with deadly fumes', --it Is considered a tribute is tbe chemical warfare work in tbe United States that these frantic endeavors to star the orocrsss at tha American offt&dve* have proved utter ly futile. The American attacking forces are protected against gas by mask* which actual Held teats prove are twenty times moro efficient than those In use by the Germans. The war department contends that there 1> not a single recorded case of an American soldier falling a v/etlm to a gos attack when protected by the nmsk that Is now be ing manufactured in the United States. Every American soldier who goes to France is trained to adjust his mask ; with almost incredible speed. The : mask Is put on with Just five motions of the arms and hands. The man who falls to accomplish the feat within a limit of six seconds' tlihe Is left behind when his unit goes to the front. Re cently, In a practice drill, one company of Americans set a record of four seconds, counting from the instant the order to don masks was given to the moment when adjustment was made by- the slowest man.' American masks withstand tests that German masks cannot meet. Ger man masks will not afford protection against a high concentration of gas. This was demonstrated recently when the British assembled a ' sufficiently lurge battery of projectors to put sev enty tons of phosgene gas Into the air at once, with consequences quite well known to tho German general staff. -There Is no concentration that the American masks will not defy. This has been amply attested not only oa | the battlefield but in the experimental stations in this country. The American gas mask was devel oped by actual manufacture. The proper authorities obtained complete 'lnformation about the French and ; British masks, and full data as to the efficiency they demonstrated un der German gas attacks. With this knowledge, an order for making sev eral thousand masks was placed In i this country. Members of the force of 800 officers and 2,000 enlisted men ,who are credited with the production of this means of defense showed the courage of their convlctlous by volun teering for experiments. From time 'to time "they donned the masks and 'exposed themselves to actual gas at tacks. -American ingenuity suggested Improvements in the original models ,and as a result the officers of the al lied armies are unanimous that the American mask Is the best on the western front. Although a gas mask Is an uncom fortable bit of gear the first few times 'lt Is worn, the soldiers soon become j accustomed to the handicap on the 'natural method of breathing. It fits j over the head like a baseball catcher's mask. A nose clip closes the nostrils land Insures breathing through the ! mouth, by means of a tube that is j'connected with a canister ailed with chemicals. The bream exhaled leaves I the mask through a flutter valve near :the chin. Air cannot reach the mouth except by passing first through the i chemicals In the canister, and the :most exhaustive tests show that these I chemicals never fall to extract the I poison. t> ] At the end of thorough training In this country, American soldiers can 'wear the masks for almost an Indefi nite period, and can Indulge In practi cally any form of activity while wear ing them. Pershing's men—merely as a "stunt"—have played baseball and soccer while wearing the regulation American array masks. On numerous occasions the soldiers have served bat teries under hurricane Are for-periods of twelve hours without taking off their masks. For the month of August waste of foodstuff*, which Include bread, cooked 'meat, grease and bones, was reduced to three-fifths of a pound a man per day In the various camps and canton ' moots of the army In this country. |Tha facta have just been made public by the conservation and reclamation '.division of the quartermaster corps. This figure is much lower than that for* waste among the civilian popula tion of any of the larger cities In the United States. Statistic* gathered from SI camps and cantonments show a total garbage collection of 002.1 pounds per 1.000 men a day. I In the course of 'he month the con servation and reclamation division re paired In the camps a total of 1,788,- 783 articles of wearing apparel—hats, uniforms, leggings, shoes, underwear, sweaters, blankets and the like. The dry cleaning and pressing shops clean ed and pressed 1,618.668 garments, and there were laundered 8,119,611 pieces. The revenue from reclamation was 170,567.40. The revenue from laundry work was $184,719. Thirty thousanil beds are now ready for American wounded In southern France, and American hospital unit* are being detailed at Nice and other points along the Ulvlera. Their work will cover Cannes, Uenton, lieaulleu and Monte Carlo. At Nice, hotels «ro undergoing con version Into hospitals.

OCTOBER 24, 1918 MISER WLLiIIM NO LONGER IN CONTROL THE PEOPLE OF GERMANY AM j EVIDENTLY TAKING CHARGE J OP GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS. PRESIDENT MAY NOT REPLI | Eveavatlon of Invaded Territory Mutl j Bo Completed Before an Armla tie* Is Granted. ri Washington.— Germany has replied | to PrssMsnt Wilson with a not* i which, though no one Is prepared to i' eay It will lead tha president even to ! continue exchanges oa the subject ol i anarmlstlce and peace, at least has t served almost to bring conviction hers i that the people of Germany actually I taking the reins of the government j and sincerely desire peace on any I terms the United States and the al illss are willing to give. 1 As received by wireless the nots !Is believed to be slightly garbled In ; the Important ssntsnoes regarding : conditions for the evacuation of In | vaded territory and for the armistice, i hut, nevertheless, it is regarded as an awkward attempt to meet the con ! dltlons laid down by President Wilson ; for consideration of an armistice. ; And It makes the significant decla : ration that tha government in Berlin |no longer Is responsible to a single abltrary Influence—the kaiser—but Is I supported by an overwhelming ma. ; Jorlty of the German people. This declaration Is supported by ths statement that constitutional reforms are In progress In accord with the de termination of the people under which no government can take or hold office without the confidence of the majority of a reichstag sleeted by universal, ments; to await the performance ol consideration here because ot confi dential advices received indicating that the Oermaj middle classes have resolved to have peace at any price, and If necessary are prepared to get rid of the kaiser, the crown prince and all military control. Diplomatic*observers point out that ' the President i* at liberty with per feet consistency to make no response at this time, but to await develop ments to await the performance ol the promises of the Germans not to .1 torpedo passenger ships; their implied promise to work no mora destruction during their retreat from Berlin and France than military necessity re quires, and finally to await further development of the political leaven (bat evidently Is working toward the complete overthrow of military and autocratic power In the empire. The official view bare so far has 'been that evacuation of invaded terri tory must be completed before there can be an armistice. Bhoutd Presl dsnt Wllspn, after consultation with the armies, adhere to this view, the work of driving the Oermaua to aad across their own. borders would pro ceed and th* opportunity of fixing de tails, which th* new note suggests "be 'brought about," would com* onl* through a r*qu*st from th* German line* under a white flag on the battle front.

In : Belgium, the allies ar» three mile* from Eecloo, and in the whole vaat etretch between Courtral and the Dutch border the Brltlah, French and Belgians are puihing the Germane be fore them, cloeing In toward Oheht from which they are now leea than •even mile*. The Qermanf, here and there In Bel glum., have held out strongly in enor mous concrete forts from which the guns had been removed. These forU were used by Oerman machine gun i Hers, and In some cases it required shells from heavy guns to crack them. More prisoners have been captnred.

The Belgian coast again Is Belgian. Germany's dream of an Invaaioa of England across the North saa from Calais Is ended. Belgian Flanders Is being last evac uated by the enemy, and his line from the Belgian frontier to the Mease river gradually is giving way under the at tacks of ths British, French and American armies which ars demand ing to be ssrvsd with victory. A haven of safety In a shorter and more compact lins is being sought by the German* In order to escape annihilation by their fos*. Everywhere they are bsing whipped. But seem ingly they are still far from defeat. In Belgium the enemy Is gtrinc ground safely out of ths trap which menaces them but from th* French frontier to the M*use river he still is fighting desperatsly to hold bach the lower jaw of ths great Foeh pin cer from closing In a great converg ing movement and entrapping in Its maw the Oerman fighting force in Its entirety. Out of the great sack between the North sea and the Lys river the enemy Is fleeing fast In an endeavor to prevent capture or Intern ment in Holland. His hope Is that he will be able to reach Antwerp and there reconstitute his lias. To the east the Amsricans on both sides of the Meus* river are alowly going forward.

DYSASTY IS IN GRAVE DANGER Federalizing of Austrian Statss In Vain and Dospsrats Effort to Savs Dual Monarchy, Washington.—On the era, appar ently, of the oomlng of the peace note from Germany, President Wilson has rejected the plea of Austria-Hungary for an armlstloe and peace negotia tions and In doing so has made clear er the conditions which ths central .powers must meet to end the war. In a note made public soon after It was well on the way to Vienna the President In effect says there can be no talk of peace with the Austro-Hun gartan government except upon the 'basis of complete liberty for Csecho- Slovaks and other subject nationali ties as free members of the family of .nations. He refuses to entertain the Austro-Hungaratn suggestion for this reaaon without discussing the military questions dealt with in the roply to Germany. The Vienna government aaked for i .egotlatkms on ths basis of the presi dent's announced program of peace, mentioning the speech of January I. last, in which the Presldsnt said tha peoples of Auatrla-Hungary should be accorded the freest opportunity for autonomous devslopmsnt. The reply says this Is impossible; that the Caacho-Slovak national council ha* been rscognlsad as a de facto bellig erent government, the justice of the nationalistic aspirations of the Jugo slavs has been recognised and mere autonomy no longar can be accepted. /This declaration which may be far reaching In Ita offset upon Austria- Hungary. wh«r* long enslaved peoples apparently ara nearly ready to sweep away the hated dual monarchy and ths Hapabnrg dynasty dears up what some critics of the President's policy •hay* pointed to as a source of snd la*s controversy in his program of peace. It comes oas day aftar th* proclamation of Emperor Karl federal, talng th* Austrian statss In a desper ate effort to save his governmant at bom* and at the same time prepare the way for peace.
