railway opens for traffic this
summer. 1t runs from Brig
~ along the line of the Furka post
road and traverses a little
known region of the Alps.
When the Simplon line was opened
in 1906 there was probably no other
city in the Rhone valley which gained
more through this achievement than
Brig. delightfully."- quaint community
at the junction of the Simplon and
Furka post routes. A few years later,
in the summer of 1918, the completion
of the celebrated Lotschberg railway
added further to the Importance of the
town.
The Simplon railway forms the in
ternational highway between the Lake
of Geneva and the Rhone valley and
Italy. and the Loetschberg line, con-
Meeting with the Simplon at Brig, has

runs from Brig to Andermatt, at the
foot of the Oberalap pass From
Andermatt the Oberlap pass, practical
ly a continuation of the Furka road,
leads to Disentis an ancient monastic
village with recently discovered radio
active mineral springs, distance OF
eighteen miles
To cover this entire distance of
sixty and one-half miles requires n
diligence journey of che day between
Brig and Andermatt and four and one
half hours between Andermatt and
Disentis, fascinating drive for the
tourist who is fortunate enough to be
able to travel with leisure, but often
out of the question for those who are
somewhat pressed for time. The con-
struction of railway to form the
connecting link between Brig and
Disentis came up for discussion a
number of years ago and the construc-
ton of the line was started in 1911.
On June 80, 1914, the Inauguration of
the first section between Brig and
Gletsch took place, but four weeks
later, when the railroad was actually
ready for regular traffic, the European
war broke out and in view of the new
conditions it was decided that the line
should only be opened for the summer
season of 1915.

PINGREE'S PLAN WORKS

Pingree's plan to provide work and
food for the unemployed has been
used in Germany on large scale
this year, with the result that every
foot of available ground has been
planted to grain and vegetables. II
Berlin reports are true, there will be
an enormous harvest and plenty OF
foodstuffs. The same plan was tried
in West Australia, where the govern
ment used the unemployed in the cul-
tivation of 1000 acres of state prop
erty. Five thousand acres were plant
ed in wheat and the crop is expected
to recoup the expenditure and leave
profit. The Michigan governor had
the right idea and it Is highly prob
able the question of unemployment
all over the world may be partly solv-
ed in accordance with his potato
patch plan. Great oaks from little
acorns grow. Tribune.

LONG HOURS OF LABOR

A WIDESPREAD effort is being made
by factory employees in trades max.
ing war munitions to get an eight
hour working day. Labor leaders ex-
press considerable confidence that
the eight hour day will become re-
allied fact within a few years.
Whatever one may think of the
case of the factory artisan for a
shorter working time, there are many
classes of workers who are today en-
ployed for too long hours. In the
smaller cities and country districts
il has long been customary for stores

MORE SUBMARINES AND
AIRCRAFT

The various war experts seem to
agree that the two directions In
which our American defenses most
need development is in submarines
and aircraft. The few submarines
W. have behaved rather badly in the
recent maneuvers at New York, while
as far as aeroplanes are concerned
there are barely a score of machine s
available for both the army and the
navy. Congress has, however auth
orized the building of sixteen new
submarines of the latest type, which
will be a good start for a submersi
BILE flotilla-though 1t Is feared .ae
craft provided for are OF too small
type. AS to aircraft our manufat-
turers are busy day and night, turn
ing out war machines for the Euro
pean governments, and have millions
of dollars worth of orders on hand.
We are certain, therefore, to possess
ample facilities for building a good
type of aeroplane. The last Con-
gress made some increase in the APP
preparation for buying machines. The
new board will no doubt have great
weight with Congress in the matter
Of further grants for this purpose.
Civilian OF organizations are doing mdcn
in building our various national
defenses. The Aero Club of
America is helping to enlarge our buy
ing equipment. 1t has started
popular subscription fund for the jur-
chase of aeroplanes, a method that
has proved highly successfuls in
France, Germany and Italy. The ma.
chimes so acquired, together with
some already volunteered, will be
used in the formation of aeronautic
divisions for State militia organiza-
tons. From, The Progress OF the
Word, in the American Review OF
Reviews for August.
