FIRE ON NEW RANGE
Ten Targets Ready for Use OF
Troops Stationed at
Camp Meade.
5000 GET SHORT LEAVE

From a STAFF Correspondent.
CAMP MEADE, Nd, November 10
The first shot on the just completed
rife range here was fired this after
noon by Maj. Gen. Kuhn. commanding
the 18th Division. National Army.
Camp Meade.s commanding officer
scored a bull's-eye.
After Gen. Kuhn had fired Lieut.. Col.
Tenney Ross, his chief of staff, shot,
being followed by several other officers
of the division headquarters staff
Ten targets have been placed on the
range, but when all are up there are
to be 500 of them. At present only the
soO-yard range is ready for use.
The machine gun range. located near
the rifle range, is almost completed
1t is a 6O0-yard range. Both are in
the low hills just north of the base
hospital.
Go Out on Passes.
More than 5000 selected men went out
on passes this afternoon, the proper
ton being about So per cent. Prac-
tically all of the men getting passes
today were required to be back in camp
by 10 O'Clock tonight. The same num-
Der will have Sunday leave. The great
crowd of soldiers and officers leaving
camp. together with the workmen re-
turning to Washington and Baltimore.
taxed the capacity of the electric line s
service for several hours.
Sunday is the regular day of rest
when the men remaining in camp will
be required to perform no duties except
necessary fatigue and guard duty. A
big crowd of visitors Is expected, the
weather promising to be fine. Passes
to enter camp will not be required.
1t was announced today that hospital
reports for the 18th Division showed
less than 3 per cent OF illness or dis
ability for duty. No really serious
cases Of illness have occurred in the
camp since the first selected men ar
rived here.
Hospital supplies, however. are ex-
tremely scarce. there being practically
no alcohol with which to sterilize in
struments. Even the tongue depressors
frequently must be used after only a
scrubbing and without alcohol flame
sterilization, and surgical soap is al
most extinct as far as hospitals Of this
division are concerned.

Sperry 60-InCh Lamp Can Be
Seen IS MiIeS-SkysCraperS
Will Present Marvellous
Sight Under Illumination
BY j. HERBERT DUcKwoRrE.

NEW YORK, April 14-Scouring the
skies for Zeppelns and other hostile air
craft with hundreds of giant searchlights
will be a most important and picturesque
part of the anti-aerial warfare that will
be waged for the defense Of New York
City-the nations front door.
Searchlights are to aircraft what the
submarine chasers are to U-boats-their
most dreaded enemy.
Recent trials in Brooklyn of the Sperry
1850, 100000 candle power searchlight
the most powerful in the world, gave
New Workers an idea of the extraordi-
nary powers of penetration of these
modern high-intensity lamps. The Sper-
ry sixty-inch lamp can be seen seventy
five miles.
From what witnessed during the
first eight months of the war in London
I can say that New YorlI's first realiza-
ton that the country is in the great
world conflict will come when the bat
teries of searchlights commence to pro-
ject their incandescent beams heaven
wards in quest of sky pirates.
1t was a beautiful sight, in spite of the
ever-present danger or humiliation
from the air above it indicated. to watch
the long ribbons of light illuminating
the clouds and as they were swung
around eerily lighting up the dome or
st. Paul's cathedral, or big Ben and
the Victoria tower at Westminster.
New Yorll's wonderful skyline of sky
scrapers should present a marvellous pic
ture when from the tops of many of It's
architectural peaks shafts of artificial
moonlight stab the darkness in their
hunt for aerial cruisers.
For a time the unusual sight will
amuse. as similar precautions enter
tanned the smugly-contented Londoners.
Then one night a score or so of high
explosive bombs will he dropped on New
York; teeming millions and the city will
know first-hand that the war is on.

; GREAT BLOWS
HIT AT GERMANY
BY UNITED STATES
Resume of Work of Admins
tration Thus Far Shows Gi-
gantiC Strides Taken Against
PruSSian AutOCraCy

WASHINGTON, April l4.-Three
tremendous thrusts toward success
over Gcru2ny transpircd here today.
The house passed the $7,O00.00O,-
900 war bond bill,
Notice was given twenty states
that they can raise additional guard
units, ana,
Official announcement was made
that America plans a commission
which shall aid Russia.
The house swept through it's bin
with no dissenting votes.
The war department in forward
ing word to governors that if they
choose. they can raise more units,
counselled that none be raised until
the present units are filled, and
warned that no units will be taken
into federal service if they are below
peace strength.
The war department already has
advised that the additional units
could not be rasied. Judge Advo-
cate General Crowder, however,
ruled otherwise, and word of his
decision was sent TO twenty states.
Ali these states can now recruit
up to 500 men per congressional dis
trict, but if politics enter into APP
pointments, the army will not hest
tate to use the wedding out process
on the unfit. Army men fear it
means more plums.
While congress acted on the war
bond bill and the war department
took this new step, the state depart
ment announced it's plan to send to
Russia an official commission.
The Russian commission is sepa-
rate from those that will go to 9TH
or allied countries.
The whole plan is to make
American-allied efforts unified and
potent.
Before many days, the first of the
notables from England and France
will come here to start cOunSelling
with American otficials--to show
them how to avoid blunders the
allies have made and to arrange for
the most thorough harmony of eff
fort.
Admiral Fletcher was assigned by
the navy to act as it's representa-
tive in the conference.
Other. news developments of the
day included unearthing of an al
legged Philadelphia pacifist plot to
halt recruiting: formation of plans
for. obtaining 10000 standardized
trucks for the new army; receipt of
word from Holland that there is
Ger9an opaganda afoot whereby
the Socialists shall try TO sway
Russia into a separate peace; an
nouncement by the navy of a drive
to fill up it's ranks to 100000 by
May dewey day
Next week, the administration
army bill comes up for serious con-
sideration. It should be acted on
by the end of next week-and can
vases today showed that the Sc
Q lective draft plan will prevail.
The upper house will o. X. the war
bill, and work will be started on
the espionagae bill.
