mind the profoundly complex prob.
lens connected with the movements
Of such legions OF human engines OF
war? Would Moltke. the greatest
strategist Of modern times. II he were
alive. be able to handle modern
armies of millions with the ease and
celebrity necessary to success? Are
the great armies created by the lead
Ing countries OF Europe really efii-
cient instruments of war, or would the
complicated machinery break down
under the stress OF actual hostilities?
All these questions are occupying
the minds Of German experts. but only
a war can supply a conclusive reply to
them. There Is. however. strong in
clination among many competent
judges to regard the countless legions
Of the great powers as inefficient be-
cause 1t is thought that they are too
big and unwieldy to be handled with
facility, and because no human brain
can surmount the difficulties OF direct
ing their movements with precision.
Problem Of Feeding Millions.
As the great army moved forward
something like 5000 field bakeries
would have to be constructed for use
every day. and as these are under
ground and created by excavating
earth. extensive areas of country
would be honeycombed by these holes.
involving both damage to landowners
and farmers and danger to all pedes-
trians in those regions. Soldiers do
not live by bread alone. and the sup
ply of other provisions for an army OF
100000 would strain the resources of
any commissariat department. even
the smartest, to the uttermost. The
supply Of pure water, too. would pre-
sent grave and in dry weather perhaps
insuperable difficulties. There also
would be tens of thousands OF horses
to tend and feed. and enormous guam
titles of petrol would be required for
the various motor cars needed for mil
itary auxiliary services. The ordinary
brain reels at the thought of all the
intricate machinery that would have
to be set in motion and kept in good
working order in the event of a great
modern war.
Italy has organized the expedition to
Tripoli with celebrity and efficiency.
In the illustration we see herd OF bull
locks being conducted through the
streets OF Naples on their way to the
landing stage for embarkation. Be-
hind the ratings is the arsenal. At
the summit of the hill In the back
ground may be seen the wall OF the
castle Of st. Elmo and portion OF
the monastery Of St. Martino.
Some authorities predict an aban-
donment OF very great armies based
on compulsory military service for
every adult male in the country and
recourse to smaller armies of trained
fighters. The comparatively few pro-
fessional soldiers would, according to
this view. be paid to fight the battles
of the nation, as is the case in Ameri-
ca and England.

Some boX-kites stand nine feet high,

The kites are flown singly or in tan

steam power. BY this means kites
have raised scientific instruments for
the study OF the atmosphere. to a
height OF over three miles above the

The great practical Importance OF
using kites in this way lies in the

DenVerite Tells Help
Given to Sugar Trust

How vast sums of money for the es-
tablishing of beet sugar factories in
Colorado were furnished by either the
late H. o. HavemeI er or the American
Sugar Refining Company, was detailed
before the HardwiCk Committee today
by Chester S. Morey. of Denver, presi-
Gent Of the Great Western Sugar Com
panv, New JeJrseY corporation of
$50, 900, 900 capitalization.
Sixteen of these factories were COM
bined in 1905 into the Great Western
Sugar Company. in which the American
Sugar Refining Company owns SO per
cent and the Havemeyer estate 35 per
cent of the stock.
Morey was president or director of
most of the independent factories before
the combination. Havemeyer, he said,
at first opposed the consolidation.
Without the money furnished by
Havemeyer and the American Sugar
Refining Company, Morey said. the Col
orado Beet Sugar factories could not
have been built.
Morey organized the Morgan County
Construction Company, which built
most of the sugar factories, and H. o.
Havemeyer also was interested in this
company. Morey said after 1902 he con-
suited with Havemeyer in all his busi-
ness transactions.
''Mr. Havemeyer did more for Colo
RADIO than any other man who ever
came to the State" asserted Morey.
