TAKES STEPS TO ERECT
CLARA BARTON MEMORIAL
Legion of Loyal Women Appeals to
G. A. r. and Patriotic
Organizations.

steps toward a memorial to the late
Clara Barton, founder of the American
National Red Cross, to be erected In
Washington, were taken today by the
Legion of Loyal Women, which asked
Grand Army of the Republic posts,
patriotic organizations and others
throughout the country to cooperate.
1t is planned by the legion, of which
Miss Barton was a charter member, to
have some substantial remembrance of
the eminent Red Cross worker in the
nations capital Whether it will take
the form of a statue. to be placed in
the hall of fame in the rotunda of the
Capitol, or in the Red Cross building
being erected to the women of the civil
war, or as a training school for Red
Cross nurses. has not been decided.
The Legion of Loyal Women feels
that Miss Barton's name should be
placed among the illustrious women of
all time because of her founding of the
American Red Cross, and as through
her efforts and initiative the Geneva
treaty of the Red Cross was adopted
by the United States, and because her
amendment making the Red Cross ap-
plicable to calamities other than war
has grown to be world wide.

GERMAN SAILORS RESCUED.

NJ fhe Assocjated Press

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
LONDON. May 20.-Of the crews OF
German warships lost in action. 1.2S2
were rescued from the water by Brit
ish sailors. In addition. about forty
who were picked up by the British
submarine E-4 in the North sea last
August were given boats, provisions
and a compass in order to proceed to
Helgoland, as they could not be taken
on board When the Mainz was sunk
in the first month of the war. 1853 Ger
mans were picked up, and 2s3 were
rescued from the Bluecher in the ac-
ton off Doggerbank. This list IN
cludes only the rescues made by the
British warships engaged and not cases
where the crews were saved by other
means.
The complaint has long been made
that the Germans made no effort to
rescue the British sailors in the Falk-
land Island battle. Altogether only
one officer and twelve men, who be-
long to the destroyer Crusader, have
been taken from the sea and made
prisoners by the Germans. Six officers
and seventy six men from the Destroy
err Maori were captured. but they were
rowing in their own boats after their
vessel was sunk.

Correspondence of the Associat ed Press.
CAIRO, May 1.-Refugees who have
arrived at Alexandria from Jaffa told
a representative of the Egyptian Ga
zette that the American consul at the
Syrian port nipped a plan of the Turk
ish officials there to keep for them
selves three-quarters of the relief sup
plies of food contributed by the Jews
of the United States to their suffering
co-religionists in Palestine.
The food was brought over on tho
American ship Vulcan. Her arrival at
Jana was enthusiastically greeted by
the Turkish authorities for a reason
soon apparent. Before allowing any
food to go through to the starving
Jews they demanded tho greater part
for themselves.
Royal permission to land the supplies
had, however. been granted by the sui
tan, and the arrival OF the consul with
the necessary papers settled tho mat

PETROGRAD. May 20.-"Is Russia
short of ammunition is a question fre-
quently asked even in Petrograd.
In answer a Russian army officer has
published reassuring review of the real
position of the country in regard to the
armament of her military forces.
After the japanese war;. he says,
.the army was reorganized and increased,
and special attention was devoted to the
working capacity Of the special arms fac
tories, which in Russia are all the prop
erty of the state The factories were en-
larged and improved, and In several parts
of the empire new factories were estab-
lished
Rifle Production.
The method Of production of rifles is
so planned that every year the number
of rifles manufactured IL proportionate to
the number of reservists liberated from
active service The life of a rifle IN
active service is fixed at twelve years.
after which period it is replaced by a
new one so that in reality every Russian
reservist Of the first and second class
has his rife ready in case of mobillzatlon.
I'm regard to the territorial forces,
like the Opoltchenye, which are used
only for internal service. there are in
the military depots new model rifles
which have passed out of active service
and millions of the old model, the So
called Berdan. which is still considered
wonderful weapon, especially for de-
fensive purposes.
Plenty Of Shells.
LAS to shells and other kinds of am
munition, there is a noteworthy method
of production. In raw materials. in
Guiding copper and other metals, Rus
sia is so well supplied that it could
furnish the whole of the engaged
armies. The capacity Of the Russian
factories is the question that needs an
answer. 1t must be noted that all the
Russian factories producing any kind
of metal work were from the moment
of mobilization transformed into arma-
ment factories and they are fully en-
gagged in this work.
Russia, being free of blockade and
possessing splendid communications
through Siberia with Japan and Amer
ica, is able without difficulty to get
from those countries material of any
kind she wants. The losses of war
material in war cannot exceed the
numbers of prisoners and dead plus a
certain loss during a retreat by a de-
feated army, when the material could
not be collected.
