well has France learned the lesson OF
preparedness" in the last two years
that, although still engaged in the
greatest military struggle of her his
tory. she Is finding both the time and
genius necessary to reorganize, drill
and instruct the entire infantry portion
of her army in the new arms and tao
tics which the present war has DEM
onstrated will characterize 1.-THE war of
tomorrow"
Should the present war, by some al
most incredible combination of cir
icumstances, be followed within six
months by another. it would find
france, as result of her present fore
sight and preparedness, in the pos
session of an army fully drilled, equip
iped and organized in all of the para
iphernala and rifles of what the best
military authorities of Europe concede
will be the basis on which future wars
will be fought. This army, too, would
in all probability be the only one in
Europe ready to such a degree for the
emergency--should It come.
DIFFICULT PROBLEM.
The change which Europe is now eff
fecting in her infantry-while that
same infantry is already engaged in Il
life and death struggles one of the
most remarkable fcats of military pre-
paration the war has produced. It is
vastly different and vastly more diff
cult in accomplishment than that Of
Frances earlier artillery problem.
When the first few months of the
present struggle demonstrated that
success was going to depend largely On
superiority in heavy artillery, France
faced complete lack of the latter. TAo
solving of this problem however was
largely one of producing larger gun !
which her already existing artillery
corps were quite capable of handling
&nd handling effectively without chang
ing their existing basis Of military edu-
cation.
NO LONGER EFFECTIVE.
When later. however, the war de-
yeloped that infantry armed merely
with rifles and bayonets is no longer
effective, France faced the problem not
only of producing entirely new kinds Of

shortly after the trial Of Raymond
McCune and Charles S. Miller was
resumed in Federal Court yesterday
afternoon. United states District At
torney Curley read to the jury the re.
port made by McCune following his
trip to Peru in 1918.
In his report McCune stated that
the gold mining property which OK
tended for miles along the Maranon
River Peru, was. in his opinion, the
most valuable placer deposit in the
world, and expressed it as his opin-
ion that this section was the source

MILL MAN KILLED
BY HIS NEIGHBOR

Kings Mountain. Nov. 5.-Raleigh
Phillips, an operative in the Klotho
Mill. was instantly killed early this
morning at the Klotho Mill village
by Russell Williams, a fellow en-
ploye, when he was shot through the
heart with shotgun. No reason is
given for the deed other than the al
legation Williams was drunk at the
time. The gun was so close to the
victim the discharge set fire to his
clothing.
Phillips and an eyewitness to the
shooting were standing on the street
talking when Williams burst from
his door with the gun in his hand
According to Phillips companion
Williams stepped in front of them
and demanded to know their names
and then fired. He then threw the
gun away and made his escape.
The wife OF the shootest says he
had been drunk, ii is claimed, and
had left the house with the state
ment he was going forth to see whom
he could kill. A search is being
made for Williams but no clue as to
his whereabout had been obtained at
a late hour tonight.
