Lond0n.-ThiS city Is now daily

great push on the Somme which the
wounded soldiers have brought back
with them. Sorcly wounded ns many
of'them are, and after Il journey which
all the care made barely endurable,
the men still tingle with the thrill of
the charge and their talk IS all Of the
glorious rush with which they car

London.-The enormous stride made
by Great Britain toward solving the
problem of munitions wns made clear
In the course or n speech recently de-
ivered by Il. Kellawny, parliamentary
secretary to Doctor Addison (parlla-
mentary secretary to the ministry Of
munitlons). Mr.. Kellaway said the
most prominent fact Of the war was
that the price Of victory was unlimited
munitions.
"Thc British army In early days"
he said. was so out-munitioned that
the British soldier ought to have been
beaten before the fighting began. But
he proved that he was better fighting
man than the German. What he lacked
In munitions he made up in devil, in
initiative, and In endurance.
II do not think anything that Ger
many has ever done equals the work
this country has accomplished In the
way of Industrial organization during
the last twelve months. Great Britain,
which has throughout been the treas
ury Of the allies, has now become their
armory. There are now scattered up
and down the country some 1000 CON
trolled firms producing munitions Of
war.
THE vast majority Of these previous
TO the war never produced Il gun, a
shell or cartridge; yet in ten months
the ministry Of munitions has obtained
from these firms number or shells
greater than the total production Of all
the government arsennls and great
armament shops in existence ut the
commencement OF the war.
Increase of Arsenais.
speaking In the house of commons
last year h!r. Lloyd-Gcorge startled the
county by saying that eleven new ar
senaiS had been provided. Today, not
eleven but ninety nrsenuls have been
built or adapted. Our weekly OUTPUT
of 1903 cartridge Is greater by millions
than our annual output before the war.
Ihere IS certain machine gun being
produced by the hundred every week
In FACTORY ordered, planned and built
during the past twelve months. The
output Of guns and howitzers has in
creased by several hundred per cent.
we are not yet ut the full flood Of
our output Of guns and shell. IF the
Germans cannot be driven home other
wlse' our army will have such a supply
or guns that the limbers Will touch
each other In continuous line from
the Somme to the sea. France, Rus
eia and Italy have been supplied by
or through Great Britain with many
OF the most important munitions of
war. Many thousands Of tons Of steel
nave been and are being sent to
France.
Our contribution toward the equip
ment OF the Belgian army has been
continuous. and the Serbian army has
been re-equipped and restored to n
magnificent fighting force very largely
by the workshops and workers of the
United Kingdom.
The labor situation has been to a
considerable extent saved by our wom-

within year after the outbreak OF
war the output Of optical glass In this
country was multiplied four and a half
times. 1t has now increased to four
teen times the output previous to the
war, and there is good ground for say.
ing that by the end Of the year 1t will
have multiplied twentyfold.
"The ministry Of munitions has built,
or Is building, housing accommodations
for 10000 persons, and canteens and
mess rooms in munition works now
provide decent accommodation, where
10000 workers take their meals every
day.

"Three men set to work on the prob

referring to glass Mr.. Kellnway
said:
The problem facing the government
Is first, to discover the formula of
glasses, and having discovered 1t, to
establish the industry. 1t Is fortunate
that In this crisis we have available n
few scientific men who have been
working for years almost without rec
ognition. and we have also Institutes
such as the Imperial college ut South
kcnSington und the National Physical
laboratory at Teddington. The gov
ernmcnt went to these men and asked
them to discover the formula used by
the Germans In their production of
optical and chemical glass.
These British scientists, after a few
weeks experiments, discovered many
of the formulate, and 1T then became
possible to begin manufacture OH

TIARTWELL, Ca, March 15.-Pros-
poets are growing brighter every day
for the building of the electric railway
from Anderson. S. c. to Atlanta by way
Of Hartwell, Royston, Commerce, JEFF
ferson and Hoschton. 1t will be prac-
tically an air line from Anderson to
Atlanta, lying about midway between
the Southern and Seaboard railways.
The distance between Elberton and Toe
Goa is about fifty miles.
The country through which the road
is to pass is almost limitless in its
possibilities as an agricultural section
There are no barren nor waste lands,
no swamps nor boys, but it is high
healthful and attractive.
The people along the route are very
enthusiastic and are determined that
nothing shall be left undone to further
the completion of the enterprise.
1t is estimated that the road will
cost about $4,000 900 The counties
towns and cities are to give one million
TO the first mortgage bonds, with the
privilege of parting with the bonds al
% per cent discount when the road is
completed. Already the towns and
cities along the route have nearly sub
scribed their apportionment.
