METAL LOSS IN WAR
The amount of metal used by the

warning armies of Europe is of such
magnitude as to almost stagger
credulity. In the recent offensive
of the British troops alone it is esti-
mated that during the first few days
of the onslaught fully one million
shells were used daily This is only
one front where ammunition has been
and is being lavishly expended. Fur
ther south and at Verdun, where the
French and Teutons are at grips,
artillery ducls of great intensity are in
progress and there are immense
quantities of metal used to scatter
death through the ranks of the belli-
yerents. Italy, and Austria, too,
whose armies are in unremitting COM
bat, are doing their share in dimin-
ishing the worlds metal supply. On
the Russian front and in Turkey,
Judging from reports, million shells
a day would hardly cover the total
employed by the contending artil-
lery.
It must be remembered, also, that
every time a battle ship or amored
cruiser is sunk, an enormous ton
mage Of metal of various kinds is ir-
retrievably lost in the depths OF the
ocean.
While the metal supply is still
abundant, it's use for purposes OF
destruction is much to be regretted
