Real war business is the order in the
Reserve Officers Training Camp
here. over 1000 Pennsylvanians
have settled down and are now
training on a strictly regular army
basis.
All thought of pleasure and frolic
has been cast aside. New orders are
being promulgated daily. Every
man must conduct himself as u sol
dier. There must be no loud OF
boisterous conduct about the camp
no tipping of the walters in the mess
halls. Careful watch is being kept
to see if any officer attempts to fire.

The hard work of training agrees
with the rockies" At night they
are tired, but happy in the knowl-
edge that they are doing their part
in putting the nation in a state OF
preparedness. They are going al
the work with a grim determination
that pleases the instructors.
There are only six men in the
camp hospital to-day. None is in q
serious condition. The chlorine wa
ter. purifcation system is in opera
ton and is a model to be patterned
after i'm other training camps.
The student officers are not al
lowed to absent themselves from the
camp at any time during the day
except at the mess hour They are
then given q brief liberty. There is
provost sergeant and two provost

School Notes
TECH NOTES

Tech students of civil government
will make a visit to the foreign CSC
ton of Steelton the latter part of
next week to investigate conditions
as to housing and sanitation, Gus
toms and manners. The party will
be in charge of Professor Pierce Ret
tew, and the students will break in
on the foreign colony unawares, in
order that they may study the real
order of affairs. Those who will
make the trip include members of
each section of the class. They are:
Gilbert Stewart, Lester Wolf. Will
liam Huber, Louis Kraybill, Dewitt
Gable, belmont Plank, William Wag-
ner, Paul Melchoir, Charles johnson,
Paul Bratten and Professor Ret
tew.
A detailed study of practically
every branch of government in this
city has been made by the commit
tees, and reports are then made to
the class.
students of the school will follow
the custom established last year by
again placing a wreath on the monu-
ment at Second and State on the af-
ternoon of May 29. Members of the
Senior class will get together next
week, and elect a student from the
ranks of the graduates to deliver the
charge to the Junior class on the af-
ternoon prior to Memorial Day. Last
years innovation is likely to be car
ried out for many years to come.
The May issue of the Taller, de-
dicated to the Junior class, was dis
tributed to the sections of the school
yesterday. 1t was published by the
new staff. The paper contained a
cut of the Junior basketball team,
class champions; picture of the

ENOUGH MONEY
WASTED ON CASES
TO BUILD NAVY
Use of Wooden and Fiber
Boxes Costs Nation $780,
100000 Annually

According to c. b. Breed, pro-
fessor of railroad engineering at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technol-
ogy, the United States wastes nearly
enough money on wooden boxes and
fiber cases. which are useless after
one or two trips, to build as many
warships as were provided for in the
1915 naval bill, maintain the navy,
naval academy and navy yards.
The entire naval appropriation of
the United States for the year
amounted to $147,161,32 and the
amount spent for the containers of
wood and fiber was, according to the
best estimates based on census and
other figures. certainly over $120,-
100000. OF course, when the pre-
paredness movement forced Con-
gress into making the plans for a
greater navy, last year, the appropri-
alton bills suddenly jumped beyond
any ever known before anywhere in
times of peace. Even the estimates
for the British navy were, for the
fiscal year 191d-15, placed at only
1856, ,150,026. The German naval es-
inmates Tor the same year amounted
to less than the cost of the American
l<indling wood pile, 113,91S.367
The French naval estamiates fol
1915 totalled only $96,255,733; the
japanese navy estimate for 1914-1J
was about $50, 0,OOO,0OO; the Italian
during the 1914-15 fiscal year, $780,
600, ,000, and the Italian army, al.
ready getting ready for participation
in the European war, $S0,025.234; sc
that the entire expense for the Ital.
ian army and navy totalled about the
same amount as the United States
threw away on kindling wood in the
form of shipping cases.
All Wasted
One hundred and twenty millior
dollars are being wasted every veal
on wooden packing cases and fiber
containers used in shippin goods il
the United States, according to Pro
fessor C. b. Breed, of the Massachu
setts Institute of Technology. Prof
Breed is one of the authorities OF
such matters and he maintains tina
| in times of national emergencie:
| like the present when all possible
savings should be encouraged, ship
pers ought to give careful attention
to such matters.

BUILDING WORK
DROPS IN APRIL
Operations Show Eight Per
Cent. Decrease Over Coun-
try; Due TO War

Despite the entrance of the United
ing operations throughout the coun-
try decreased only eight per cent.
during April 1917 compared with
figures for April 1916, according TO
statistics compiled by the American
Contractor.
While the high cost of building
materials and labor is believed to be
partly responsible, the step taken by
the government was largely the rea-
son, it is said, for the initial chill
in this great industry.
Last month in 115 cities 29,S23
permits were issued for operations
costing $S6, During April
1916, 32,2SS buildings were erected
at a total cost of $94,029,1O2. The
January statement this year showed
an increase of eleven per cent. !;
February and March, decreases of
five per cent.
OF the 115 cities listed, 60 or 60
per cent. record losses and forty per
cent. gains.
Probably the biggest gain was in
Atlantic City, n. j., building con-

the only two Pennsylvania cities to

In Harrisburg a loss of 40 per

AMERICA WILL
BOLSTER LINE
[Continued From First Pagel

without publicity except as to the
participation of the marines a full
regiment of which was ordered
abroad with the regulars sto make
good the first to fight slogan of
the corps. 1t can be said authorita-
lively, however, that the government
proposes to give the troops every
possible advantage of training and
equipment to fit them for their task.
To Pave the Way
All military advisers have agreed
that additional training within sound
of the guns at the front must be
given to forces taken to the battle
fields in France before they took
their places iu the line. The regu-
lars of the eXpeditionary force are
certain to have that training. In
placing new divisions in the line of
battle, Great Britain has followed
the practice of accustoming the men
gradually to the work before them.
The first hundred thousand of the
Kitchener army was put in with
each battalion flanked by veteran
British or French troops until it
found itself.
Presumably General Pershing will
select, in conference with French
and British officials when he reaches
the scene of action, the location for
the American training camps ana
the part of the line to which Amer
lean troops will later be assigned
will also be determined then. The
first expedition probably. also, will
pave the way for the armies that
are to follow it as soon as they are
ready.
Machinery i'm Motion
The machinery to build these ar
mics was in full motion to-day.
Early reports indicated a tremen-
dous stimulation of recruiting both
for the regular army and the Ma
tional Guard as result of the an
nouncement last night and the pub
lication of the Presidents proclama-
ton fixing June 5 as registration day
for the selective draft army.
Mail trains leaving Washington
last night were laden as never before
with registration cards, enrolment
blanks and all the data necessary to
register ten million men for the new
armies. The first shipment went to
state and municipal officials in the
Far West and other most remote
parts of the country A steady flow
of blanks for nearer states will fol-
low and in six days every section of
the country will be fully supplied,
giving state officials a week to study
their task before June g.

State Guardsmen Are
Ready Now For Service

Washington, ID. c., May 19-"When
the Pennsylvania National Guard
mobilizes to enter the Federal service
on July Is, it will be in better condi-
tion than ever before" said Represen-
tative II. S. Crago' member of the
House committee on military affairs
and formerly Northumberland of the
Tenth Pennsylvania Regiment.
For several weeks" said Mr.. Crago,
"the various commands have been re-
cruiting up to 100 men to the COM
pany, which was the limit fixed by
the War Department. Now that orders
have come for recruiting to war
strength-150 men to the company
there is no doubt that the Pennsylva-
MIA Guard will be able to reach that
strength easily. The knowledge that
the militia is to be taken in the Fed
eral service at once, with prospects
of active service abroad in the near
future, will stimulate recruiting.
Il talked recently with Adjutant
General Stewart and other general Of
ficers of the Guard, and they are all
convinced that the State force is in
excellent condition for service"
