WAR PHOTOGRAPHS WILL
AID FUTURE HISTORIAN
(Associated Press Correspondence,

Berlin, May 5.-No history that
ever will be written about the great
world d-war now raging will be quite
as complete and striking as the huge
collection of photographs, bearing on
every conceivable phase of the con-
fiict, that is being made by the gem
eral staff of the German army.
Already more than 10000 repro
ductions that range from soldiers in
the trenches to wounded men in the
hospitals have been gathered togeth-
er and filed away for present or flu
ture reference. The collection is con-
staptly growing, and requires a staff
of men to keep in order and super
wise.
This practical record of the war is
the finer because the government is
able. through the rules which il LAYS
down for all photographers who go to
the front, to secure a copy of every
picture that is made, by amateurs or
professionals. 1H
The general staff, therefore. has
been able to pick and choose for its
own gallery the cream of everything
pictorial that concerns the war, and
has acquired, not only accurate ana
interesting representations but pho
tographs that in great many cases
are artistic in the extreme.
