cynically.
"I can tell you personally, in conf
dence, that the first maneuver would
be to blow many Of them on news Of
German approach" replied the func-
tionary laughing. "It would be I'M
wise to permit their easy capture to
furnish prestige to the Germans at the
beginning Of a war;
Such frankness astonished us. The
French have spent untold millions in
constructing veritable Chinese wall
across the whole length Of their Ger
man frontier. The plan began imme-
'diately after the war Of 1901, with q
whole system of "fortifed camps,'
like those Of Belfort, Epinal, Toul and
Verdun, barring the principal routes
Of invasion and forming between them
a number Of "open passages' which
French troops could easily defend. But
what is the use of system if it is not
complete, they thought. A lot of sec
ondary routes, more or less practicable
to an invading German army, re-
manned. These they tried to cork up
by "forts d'arret' little isolated
forts, extremely strong in 1875, but
containing only two or three companies
of infantry and a few cannon. - -
"To bring them up to date millions
would be required,'' said the officer.

attack, even on the most modern of
them would end-even when all the ar
tillery is hidden in armored turtle
backs set in very solid cement, when
the barracks are built under heavy
*thicknesses Of cement, when every
thing is under ground except the
turtle backs which are so low that
the artillerymen in them see nothing,
the pointing Of their pieces being in
dictated to them by telephone. They are
surrounded by fosses protected by
more casemated artillery. Well, one
German railway train could carry
enough explosives to hurl 215 tons Of
bursting, smashing metal on such a fort
IN an hour and half. One infantry
brigade with three field batteries and
twelve pieces of fobusieres' Of 15O-155
|.millimeters caliber throwing at great
angles 9O-pound explosive projectile
would do the job. The devilish hail of
metal would completely paralyze the
inmates Of the fort until the German
infantry could come up and pick them
off one by one as they emerged from
the ruins. We know all that.' -

A PAINT DECISION.

AS a result Of Judge Amidon's
decision declaring the State Paint
Law constitutional, all paint COM
ing into the state hereafter will be
subject to an inspection by Food
Commissioner Ladd and his assist
ants. Already the Commissioner
and his assistants r engaged in
the work. of inspection and it is
nounced that the pure paint meas
ure will be rigidly enforced.
Paint manufacturers threaten to
appeal from Judge Amidon's decis-
ion, but it is not believed that the
case can be reached by the higher
court for nearly two years, so that
Judge Amidon's decision will stand
and the paint law be operative for
at least that J: DgtL f ti:Ge.
Judge Amidon's decision was a
sweeping victory for the state. The
court held that the measure to be
aviolation Of the fourteenth amend
ment, as argued by the attorneys
for the paint manufacturers, it
would necessarily be arbitrary and
icapricious. Concerning the merits
of the different pigments, concern
ing which testimony had been.
taken at the hearings in Chicago
and Minneapolis, the court held
that he had not the right to touch
upon after deciding the law consti-
tutional. 4
The law, the court held, is al
proper exercise of the police power
of the state and does not impose q
burden on one class Of persons any
more than the same burden is laid
on another class. Immediately af-
ter the decision was announced,
Atty. Zeisler for the paint manu-
facturers gave notice of appeal and
asked the court to continue the re-
straining order until the higher
could decide on the case. In sup
port. of the motion, the attorneys
cited several cases where similar
action had been taken and offered
to give any reasonable bond. The
court answered that, the case being
one of fraud, no money considera-
ton could compensate for the dam
age which might be done in case
the measure was not enforced, and
motion was denied.-Forum.
