so great as the lesson to be learned
therofrom of the futility Of permanent
Notifications. This opinion is eX-
pressed by Lieutenant Colonel Rousset,
who says that it will be necessary TO

and replace it with rude works Of easy
and quick construction. which can be
placed anywhere according to the need
Of the hour.
Then, he says, shells, because of the
absence Of resistance. would cause only
small damage. Never, ne declares, has
country been saved by it's fortifica'
tions, while there are those whose
fortresses have been their ruin.
Colonel Rousset continues:

that if Metz had been in 1870 an open

London. Oct. 3-British troops took
their place in the firing line on the
Franco-Belgian frontier for the erst
time on August IS. In the seven weeks
from that day to this General Sir John
French has been bereft of the services
of no less than 1,146 officers, out of "A
approXimating not more than $500 at
most. or that number o67 have been
killed, $50 wounded and 500 missing
or taken prisoners Of war by the Ger
mans.
II IS difficult even for a military man
20 appreciate what frightful loss il
must be 10 an army 10 have more than
one-siXth of its leaders wiped away in
so short a period Probably there is
only one man in England who is fully
alive TO the gravity of the problem en-
tiled By this fearful toll of battle, and
that is Why Lord Kitchener is devoting
his greatest energies 20 building up a
fresh corps OF officers to fill up the
frightful gaps that have been and are
being torn In the British lines by the
enemy.

ION TO THE GULF
is THE NEW SLOGAN


San Bernardino Sun: A battle cry
has been raised in the Imperial Val
ley. But it calls for no destruction
Eof property or loss of lives. 1t is a
peaceful slogan, if there is not too
much contradiction in the figure, but
without putting it into terms the I'm
perial valley people have started a
propaganda, the effect of which ought
to be to extend Uncle Sans domain
to, the Gulf of California and make the
Colorado river a thoroughly American
stream.
At meeting representnss1t the nrin-
cipal organizations Of the valley
in Ell Centre yesterday, the follow
ing was adopted:
Whereas, the Imperial and Yuma
valleys are continually menaced by
overflow from the Colorado river
through Mexico, and through the fail
IRE 81 Mexico to take any steps for
The contpol of such river within its
ssIgasies; and
Y areas, such cqntrol and protec-
1ae'1 rQn cHelfl0w can oslly be ac-
alisile roEgh work on 1Iexican
aerass, The protection Of nearly
1,900e00 acLss ol land is q matter
cf interest to alt California and Ari-
zone; therefore, be it
Resolves, Thft The civic bodies Of
California and Arizona are urged to
pass appropriate resolutions calling on
congress to assume such control of
the Colorado river and to protect such
valleys, and they are also urged wher-
ever possible to send representatives
at once to Washington to aid the
representatives of the Imperial Valley
in securing needed legislation and pro-
tection."
The same meeting that adopted
these resolutions decided to immedi-
ately dispatch their representatives,
and they are calling upon California
and Arizona to assist, because the
stake is the protection of property
valued at $1OO,OOO,OOO, all created out
OF the desert in less than fifteen years,
and it also involves the welfare of
10000 people.
Uncle Sam ought to heed the cry
and, by whatever means possible or
necessary, he should take possession of
the Colorado river to it's mouth. The
Sun has for some time been willing
for him to take possession of even
more territory to the south, but that
he extend the protection of the flag
over this much is crying necessity.
The Imperial Valley is the bread bas-
ket of Southern California. On the
Yuma side of the river are thousands
of acres in every way as good as the
marvellous valley which is only the
oeser. transformed. Forward, march,
Uncle Samuel!

WAR CIV f1s MARK E'Fs
To GALE T22 NJ /

| Los Angeles, Aug g.. Because the
responsibility for feeding the world
now automatically rests upon the Unit
ed States and because South and Cen
tral Americas will naturally turn to
American products, the opportunity of
Los Angeles and all Southern Califor-
ria to increase their prosperous con-
dition is here and now, as the result
Of the European war.
This was the declaration today of
Louis N. Cole, president of the Cham
Der of Commerce, and voices the opin-
ion of bankers, manufacturers and
merchants of Los Angeles.
The first result of the war will be
the drawing of some thousands Of
resident reservists from Los Angeles
and vicinity. This withdrawal of some
of those who have helped to make
Southern California famous and the
loss of tourist travel from Europe,
according to men who have studied
the situation, are about the only ele-
ments for regret.
And it was stated that the tourist
travel from Europe was so slight that
it will amount to nothing as COM
pared with the mighty tourist rush of
easterners to whom Europe is now
closed.
President Cole summed up the stu
alton in this manner:
"On the one hand the war in Eu-
rope will take away some few thou
sands of residents from Los Angeles
and cut off the very small volume Of
tourist travel from Europe to Cali
fornia.
"On the other hand, here in Los
Angeles and all Southern California
we will benefit from the war in Eu-
rope:
"First, the responsibility for feed
ing the world rests largely upon
America.
"Second, South and Central Amer
icas will naturally look to us to feed
them and furnish our machinery and
ether products to them.
"Third, Los Angeles manufacturers
of all products now have the oppor-
tInity of their lives to respond to the
demand for their goods in the Latin
American countries.
Germany and England have been
reaching out for the bulk of this trade
in Central and South America Now,
with German and English trade cut

Z US will demand products from us.
! ''It will be tremendously good
opportunity for Los Angeles manufac.
turers and merchants. 1t will mean
g greatly increased prosperity for Los
Angeles and all Southern California.
"And with the demand of Europe
for vast quantities Of American grain
and provisions and clothing, America
tshould, during the progress of this
strife, become more prosperous than
ever in her history.
"Let Los Angeles manufacturers
awaken to their opportunity to find
market for their products in Central
