BEHIND BRITISH LINES IN
FRANCE. Oct.-The British army rae
ton scale allows one pound Of meat
to each man daily to the troops In the
trenches, and three-Quarters OF q

required each soldier at the front car.

The measures by which an army
equal to one-fifth of the male popular

has been. supplied with meat on this
scale, amount to something like rev.

Committee Appointed
At the very beginning Of the pres.
ent war Il was decided to provide
frozen meat for the army and the
boards OF trade at once entered into
negotiations with firms importing
meat from the Argentine for month.
" supply of 1000 tons. Later meat
committee" was set up, and entrusted
with the work Of importing meat not
only, for the British army, but also
FOR the French and Italian govern.
ments and for the British civil popu.
latiun.
The principal cource Of supply at
present ID the Argentine, with assis-
lance from Australia and New zea-
land. Both Australia and New Zealand
have reserved their entire surplus
SIMPLY OF meat for the use Of the I'm.
periai government. and over $200, 000,-
600 worth of beef. mutton and lamb
has been brought from those coun.
tries.
To carry these enormous quantities
OF meat to the troops the board Of
trade reQuisitioned all the shipping
engaged In the frozen meat traffic.
Some OF the meat Is taken to Eng
land, but the greater part Of that re.
ouired for the armies Is landed d.
rectly at the base ports. where It II
discharged into cold storage ware
houses specially erected for the pur-
pose. In this matter there ID. delivered
monthly $4,000 tons Of meat for the
British armies and $4,000 tons TO the

GREAT DEMONSTRATION 3
COLORED POPULATION
WHEN NEGRO RECURITS
JOIN THE ARMY

Morgan City has never seen
more touching or patriotic demon
stration than was given the twenty
one negro recruits at the time of
their leave-taking on Train No. 10
here Friday. Five hundred negroes
thronged the station platform to give
q devoted farewell to the patriotic
men of color who have offered their
services to their nation and their
flag. A colored band contributed
music in the swingy, rhythmic fashion
peculiar to their race and strains
produced added fervor and pathos
to the occasion. The recruits were
the center Of the admiring throng
which had gathered to see them off
on their trip to New Orleans where
they will be given further examina-
ton before being finally enrolled as
units in the army of Uncle Sam.
Dressed in gala attire, the colored
crowd gathered full hour before
train time and gathered about the
volunteers with words of and tears
Of parting.
The twenty-one members of the
colored race who are named below
have established themselves in the
minds Of the white and colored races
~ being loyal and true citizens of
the nation. Morgan City is proud Of
her colored recruits and whether
they are ever called into active ser
vice or are returned from the re-
cruiting headquarters as physically
unfit for service, they have won the |
praise that is due al true patriots.
