ID FIGHT THE WHITE PLAGUE IN THE ARMY Some French Soldiers Cured of Lung Troubles and
 Others Made Worse

Paris, October 2.--(Correspondenc of
 the Associated Press.)-Among the
 many problems with which the govern
 ment has to deal as an affect of the
 war is that of tuberculosis. Life at
 the front has cured or benefited many
 soldiers predisposed to lung troubles.
 On the other hand. a large number have
 been unable to withstand the rigors of a long campaign and the white plagne has left it's mark in the ranks.
 For the treatment and care of tubor- cular soldiers. the department of pub- lie hygiene has at its disposal a prelimi-
 nary sum of 100000 francs (s4O0.000). As all arrangements for caring for the men have not been completed, the war department has temporarily undertaken the task and has been granted for each patient an allowance of three francs (60 cents) day for three months. While the sanitary service is studying the best means of dealing with the question, the army is at work wedding out all who show the slightest indication of tuber- cuIosis. Their presence is regarded as dangerous to the health of others and every precaution is taken.
 Before long we hope to have these
 men isolated where they will be in the hands of specialists and given the most scientific treatment in sanitaria adapted to the purpose" said Monsieur Jules Brisac, director of the public health service, to the Associated Press. For
 the time being, they are receiving at tention at the various military hos- pitals

Watch for Zeppelins

London. october 25.-Watching for Zep- pelins is new form of volunteer duty not yet recognized by the government. It is undertaken by men who have nerv- ous women to look after, and 1t con- sists in searching the sky from 9 p. m. until about a. m. on the theory that this is the period of the night the "Zeps'' are likely to operate. In the districts which have been bombed heretofore, the feeling of uneasiness Is still strong, es- pecially in families with children, as time Is needed to carry them to the basement or lower floor. Here the watchers or ganize themselves and divide up the watches. While they are not officially recognized. they are known and unof- ficially recognized by tho police These organizations practice surprise drills. and have arranged telephone connections witt the small shopkeepers who have friends in the suburbs.

ELEMENT OF SURPRISE
Still Present in Warfare, But Conceal ment Is Vastly More Difficult-The British Led Teutons to Suspect
 Attack in Force at Other Points

British Headquarters, France, october .-(Correspondence of the Associated Press. )-Since the taking of Loos, all the army is singing the praises of the guns and the planes. No such bombardment had ever been heard on the British front as that which preceded the attack.
 There seemed no intervals between the reports of the guns: not even those of the beat of a snare drum. The roar had the power and continuity of Niagara Falls House windows in the surrounding country kept up a continuous rattle.
 Tt Is the sweetest sound in the world" said one of the surviving veterans of the retreat from Mons Tt means you will get into the German trench and have a fair fight of it and, you won't charge into the play of the machine guns or be hung up in the barbed wire. A year ago when we held the Germans back from the chan nel ports we were doing it with flesh and blood against the outnumbering German artillery. The most comforting sight in the world is an S-inch howitzer; and next to that is motor truck loaded with high explosive shells.''

 As morning approached after the night of bombardment, officers on the British front were looking at their wrist watches. In front of Loes the figure six marking the half hour-half-past sx-was the goal of the creeping minute hand. At that mo- ment a wave of men rose from the first line of British trenches and the volume of shell fire was lifted from the first line of Germans to the second line, as the stream from a hose is lifted from one flower bed to another.

 Office and loft building property is naturally very difficult to rent at the present time. Many professional and business men whose leases have ex- pired during the past 12 months have taken advantage of this to secure new quarters at far lower rentals or else retain their old quarters on more or less nominal terms.
 Real estate men state that the big reductions in rental values have proved a serious matter to many landlords and property holding companies whose in- come is dependent upon the renting of high priced offices The higher range of interest values at the present time. which moreover Is practically certain to last for many years after the war, also tends to lower the return on rent ed property of all kinds. as there is no likelihood of renewal of mortgages at the old rate of or 41a per cent
