MUNITI0N TOWN OF FRANCE
lie Creusot and the Immense Ordnance
Factories Started There by
the Sct1neiders.

LIE Creusot is the center of Frances
war munition works. Like the famous
Krupp works of Germany, LIE Creusot's
vast ordnance factories owe their
origin to the organizing and inventive
genius of one family-the Schneiders.
At the outbreak Of the war the
Schneider Iron works employed more
than $4,000 workmen and their great
shops, covering hundreds Of acres OF
ground, were connected by network
Of nearly 40 miles Of railroad tracks.
Since the war this plant has been
enormously increased, says National
Geographic society bulletin.
LIE Creusot owes it's Importance In
the manufacturing and foundry indus
try to the fact that it is in the center
of one Of the richest coal and iron min
ing districts of France. The coal beds
of this region were discovered in tho
thirteenth century, but it was not I'M
till 500 years later, in 1774, that the
first iron works were established. Sixty
years later the Schneiders, Adolphe
and Eugene, established their first
workshops here, and the little hamlet,
formerly known as Charbonniere, be-
gan to grow. In 1S41 it was town OF
1000 people; just before the war there
were $4,000 inhabitants, nearly half OF
whom were employed in the arlnor-
plate factories, the gun shops, the To-
connective works and the ordnance
plants. 1t was one of the Schneiders,
incidentally, who revolutiOnized war
ship armament in 1876. Up to that time
the most progressive nations used
wrought iron FOR protective armor on
their ships. Schneider proved the
superiority of steel in resisting the
penetrating power Of projectiles.
lie Creusot is admirably situated
with respect to the French frontier,
for while it is not so far from the fir
ing line as to occasion undue delay In
the transportation of munitions, it is
suffi GENTLY removed to be well beyond
the danger zone. It is 1875 miles, In
an airline, southwest of Belfort,
fortress of the first class on the Alsace
front, and is 175 miles south Of Ver-
dun.
Supplementing it's railway connec-
tons, lie Creusot enjoys the transpor-
tation facilities Of the Canal du Centre,
five miles to the east. This waterway
joins the Saone and the Loire. The
former, rising to the north in the
Faucilles mountains few miles below
Epinal, flows south and mingles its
waters with the Rhone at Lyon. The
Loire, the longest river in France, rises
to the south and flows northwest into
the Atlantic.
While LIE Creusot has practically no
historical associations of its own, it
is only few miles southeast of Autun,
the famous Augustodunum Of the Ro-
mans, celebrated for it's ancient
schools. The g. towers and most of
the old walls have disappeared, and
the town now occupies only about half
the area of it's most prosperous days.

mines of Britain, had way station
and fort on the rock Centuries later
the Carthagenians erected watch tow"
ers upon it to observe the galleys OF
their Roman enemies. The Romans
captured it, and the Goths took it from
the Romans. The MoOrs got it next
and held it for 800 years. The Moslem
hosts landed there to Overrun Europe.
Always the power that held the rock
was power dominating world COM
merce, and never since the days OF
Hercules has the rock been SO forbid

Wound Comparisons.

In the South African war wounds
were not so severe and there was
less smashing than in the recent cam
paign. These bullets had frequently
travelled for more than half a mile and
lost much of their velocity, whereas in
the present war the bullet travels
only a few yards.
The ordinary bullet wound of the
South African war was quite small, as
though it had been made with G
bradawl. In the present war there II

JUVENILE CRIME
SHOWS INCREASE
Since Beginning Of War Crime In Ger
many Has Shown Increase
Among Juveniles.

Berlin. March li.-(Correspondence
of the Associated Press Juvenile
crime and misdemeanor have increas.
ed three and four-fold in nearly all
cities in Germany since the beginning
Of the war. according to the societies
which specialize In the care Of chill.
dren.
The absence Of fathers at the front.
the frequent inability OF mothers TO
oversee their children because they
now have to work 10 support the fam
lily, and the increased amount OF
spending money which boys and girls
have-due to employment ordinarily
not open TO them-are given as the
chief causes.
The facts have come as a surprise
to juvenile experts. They had always
held that the mother was the chief
disciplinary factor in the household.
They now are constrained to change
their opinions and to feel that II has
been the father after all. who has
made the children toe the line.
The war. with its accounts OF bat.
ties and shooting. has inspired count.
less boys with the desire TO have
weapons OF their own. and in many
instances they have been able to Sc
cure them. Little groups or gangs"
have formed in most OF the great cities
OF Germany. have made unoccupied
cellars their headquarters. and from
mock battles have graduated into &C.
tual burglary in many instances.
Many more boys have comparatively
lucrative employment at present than
they ever had before. and consequent.
ly have an unprecedented amount Of
money with which to purchase what
they want-including fire arms. Many
others. not employed. but DESTROYS Of
the weapons just the same. have re

which TO purchase them.
The contraction OF school facilities
has also had an effect in increasing
delinquency. In Berlin. for instance.
about one.third Of the schoolhouses
have been emptied Of pupils and put
to military uses-as hospitals and the
like. The consequence has been that
classes have been crowded in the re

been materially shortened. and female
teachers have had TO be employed
