"One of the most exciting things was

place in the latter part of March. in
the night. We were asleep in our cot

the hospital. and were awakened by the
terrific roar of a bomb exploding. We
jumped to the window and could see
the French searchlights sweeping the
heavens for the German aircraft and
occa asionally we could see a Zeppelin
which looked like golden cigar in
the ray of the French searchlight
French aeroplanes began to attack the
German Zeppelins. We could see the
flashes of guns being fired AT one an
other high in the air. The crack and
roar was terrific, and bombs kept drop

He asked for 1900 shells per gun. Only
1.400 were granted, provision being
made for the manufacture of 1S.500
shells a day in the government ar
senals.
All Estimates Too Low.
The first month of war showed that
all estimates az to needed ammunition
were too low. French arsenals and
private factories are now said to be
producing 10000 shells a day Not
withstanding the continued demands
of the press for more ammunition. this
is supposed to be sufficient for current
needs. besides creating a big reserve
stock. careful estimates putting at
from 100000 to 100000 the number of
shells now being used each day.
The prodigality of the French army
in shells has already been set forth in
dispatches The intensity of the Ger
man fire is indicated by an actual
count of 10000 shells fired in an hour
and a half upon a French position $50

AGREEMENT REACHED
ON MUNITIONS PLAN
British Government Abandons Idea
of Compulsory Indus
trial Service.

LONDON, June 1.-THE government
appears to have abandoned, at least for
the present. any idea of resorting to
compulsion in the organization of in
dustries for the production Of muni-
tions of war
David Lloyd George, the minister of
munitions, when he first broached the
idea of compulsion in public was Wig
orously attacked by radicals and labor
ties, who strongly opposed compulsion,
either in recruiting for the army or for
Industrial purposes. arguing that such
methods would produce in Great Bri-
tain the alleged evils seen in the Ger
man military system.
