C, under the act of March 3. 1871). ASSOCIATED PRESS REPORTS WEDNESDAY, APRIL 23, 1917 Citizens of Morehead City and Beaufort have asked Senator Sim mons and Representative Hood to see that Fort Macon is properly fortified. The danger of a submarine finding the channel in Bogue sound is remote, but there is nothing like putting the fort in a state of preparedness. It will make a more interesting point to visit after the war. E. M. Uzzell, practical printer nnd splendid business man, led his four opponents in the race for the nomina tion for commissioner of public saf ety in the primary in Raleigh Mon day. It begins to look as if Raleigh people really will select a competent, man for this position, instead of tak ing a politician and placing him on the job. Here's hoping that Mr. Uz zell and Raleigh win the election. Russia has declared that she will press the war to a finish. That gov ernment has had a terrible job on it hands, but if it is able to stand on its feet and at the same time to de liver a blow to the Germans like that Brussiloff put to the Austrians last summer, the war will not continue long. The announcement of the safe ar rival of the French mission, headed by Marshal JofTre, wa3 followed by cable from Rome that Italy probably will dispatch a mission to the United States. We will reach out a welcome to Italy too, for that little democracy is fighting for U9 all.

The degree of u. curacy ncre is .uuu-i vi an nuu, a notice attached to the exhibit adds that "in every case the operator sees and grinds her own tools." Even greater accuracy is acnieveu in the various guages that women workers are making. There is on display one cylinder guage for a six pound shell. This guage had been ground to a limit of three ten-thousandths of an inch. And this is but one exhibit in a whole section de voted to dies, guages, and tool cut ters of every kind. A manufactur er who was attending the exhbic was heard to exclaim (By the Associated Press) Berlin, April 25 Despite recent events in Russia, German trade as sociations which were interested in Russian trade before the war are pushing their plans fe,r capturing their share of the after-war trade. All these associations have just combined in the formation of a Russo-German economic committee, under the chair manship of H. Frederichs of Berlin. A circular from the committee says: "Upon the basis of the information acquired during the last twenty years and the rich experience of the former associations for trade with Russia, the activity of this commis sion will embrace the whole sphere of German economic interests in Russia, including the resumption of trade re asons and the far preaching sup port of German firms in all difficul ties which may at first arise, especial ly as regards the period of transition from war to peace."

A striking exam ple id the optical section. xs far as lense making was a British industry before the war, it virtually was a monopoly of a few French and Ger man workmen imported specially in to this country. Now England Avom en are turning out lense3 and prisms of an angular accuracy of three sec onds or less that are said to challenge the best work of France or Germany before the war. Not only a few exceptional women have attained this skill, but there is an army of them engaged in all these kind of expert work and earning high wages. And tens of thousands of skilled women artisans have had an apprenticeship of months- where men have had years. GERMAN MINES ALMOST AS SEKIOUS AS U-BOATS London, April 25 Klines laid in the important British shipping lanes by the German U-boats are proving just as berious a probiem to the admiralty as the U-boats themselves. Sir Ed ward Carson, iirst lord of the admir alty, pointed out in a speech this week that "in the olden times the lay ing of mines was dangerous, but it was nothing then to wnat it is now, when submarines are employed not only to sink ships, but to lay mines beiow the surface of the water.'- iMines of this character have caus ed heavy loss in the English channel io drnff na,;f u-v me auuuiauiit; campaign oegan . -v.Ffc.wuf u muuuy on February 1, and from the promis- is trying out the merits of the vol- cons way in which these machines unteer plan.
