The war department has authorized the following:
 As a convenint reference and reply to numerous queries as to the pay of enlisted men and non commissioned officers now in force the forthcoming statement might be of use These figures are based oI the United States army bill approved by the President May IS and which went into ef- feet June 1.
 Briefly, it provides that men of the army whose base pay does not exceed S2l per month shall receive an increase of Sl5 per month not exceeding SPA month, an in crease of SIP per month; receiving $50, S36 or $40 a month, an increase of $S; and S45 or more, an increase of S6.
 The new scale means that prlvates Of ar tillery, cavalry, infantry, signal corps or Ouartermaster corps receiving S15 a month according to the old scale will now receive $50 month First class privates of engl- neers, ordnance, signal corps and quarter master corps receiving SIS will get S32. Second class privates of engineers receiving s25 will get $50.
 Corporals of engineers, ordnance, s,gnai corps and quartermaster corps who for merly received S45 will get $5l. First ser geants of artillery, cavalry, infantry and engineers who were paid on the same oasis will get a similar increase.
 Sergeants of engineers, ordinance, signal corps and quartermaster corps paid S36 ac- cordng to the old scale will now get S44.
 Sergeants of artillery, cavalry and infan- try paid S30 will get S3S
 The general term Sergeant includes sup ply, mess and duty sergeants.
 Bandsmen were formerly paid as follows: Sergeants s36; corporals, $50, and priv vates, SPA. They will now receive s44, S3S and S36 respectively.
 Hospital corps members received $50 for sergeants first class; $30, sergeants; $24, corporals; SIS, privates first class, and SIG, prvates second class The new scale makes the pay for sergeants, first class, $56 S38 for sergeants; s36 for corporals; s33 for rrivates, first class; and S3l for privates, second class.

LUMP SUM MAY BE GIVEN
 IN LIEU OF USUAL PENSIONS

The council of national defense authorizes the publication of the following:
 August Belmont of New York, chairman of the workmen's compensation department of the National Civic Federation, which has been actively cooperating with the com mittee on labor of the council of national defense in the effort to suggest legislation to provide for the dependents of soldiers and sailors, says that he Is in favor of the government paying given amount to mer of good character, instead of an ordinary periodical pension or compensation payment
 After man has gone to war and rlsked his life, given up his business and the op- portunity to profit by his years of educa ton, he ought to have every chance when he comes back" said Mir. Belmont. If he desires to accept some sum, say half of the total amount that would be paid him even tually as a pension, to set himself up in business, 1 think he ought to have it"
 Mir Belmont said that there should be an opportunity for soldiers and sailors or their dependents to capitalize the payments that are to be made to them, as IS done un der some of the European systems of pen sioning He added that, of course, a mans character should be taken into considera- ton, and emphasized the fact that all pen sion and compensation provisions should be taken entirely out of politics and not be a matter for yearly appropriation.
 Mir Belmont said that he had long en- tertained the idea that the present pension system could be capitalized after the man. ner in which England has capitalized its pension system.
 My idea" he said, "is that a pensioner could receive, as the result of an issue of securities which could be carried by the community at large, certain given amount, if he had good character and could establish himself in business as a re- suit of this assistance. If he should be wholly an incompetent, then he would re- ceive his fixed pension, without any ad vance at all Our present pension system involves an annual appropriation by con gress. It is not continuing at all. It rests upon the act of congress each year as the subject comes up."
 John Mitchell, chairman of the New York state workmen's compensation board, said that the suggestion should be carefully weighed, and expressed the opinion that it would prove particularly applicable to the soldiers and sailors suffering from disability.

HOW RHEIMS WAS BATTERED
 BY GERMAN PROJECTILES

A correspondent of the Associated Press, writing from the French front, says that Rheims is wlting The big cathedral city of the Champagne district has the appear ance of a hollow shell which has collapsed in parts and is rapidly subsldlng into < shapeaess mass,
 Not only the cathedral, but all the public buildings and private dwelling houses have suffered terribly in the last half year from the raging vengeance of the German gun ners, who have turned rain of shelis to the stricken city whenever their armies have been defeated at any point of the front These defeats have been so frequent, either on small or large scale since the allied offensive began this year, that the city has rarely passed more than two or three days without undergoing severe bcm- bardment.
 The extent of the undeserved punishment may be gathered from the figures relating the number of shells of all calibers poured into the streets and on the cathedral during single fortnight from June b to June 2S. The total between those two dates was no fewer than 6,052. There are only 5,oOo persons left out of a peace-time population of about 1l5, ,000 Among them are goodiy proportion of women and children. Some of the younger women have continued their work throughout, many of them being em- poyed in the champagne cellars where dur ing the day they are comparatively safe from the German fire.
 School is still being carried on, the classes being held below the street surface, and the municipal government also IS conducted ln the bowels of the earth, where the city fathers meet to discuss relief measures, A visit to Cardinal Lucon, archbishop ot Rheims, who has never for moment thought of deserting his post near the ca thedrai, found him in very confident spirits and in full belief that the allied victory was assured He referred in course of con versation to the great help he had received from America and the other allies, He said:
 "The entry of America into the war will surely hasten the defeat of the Germans, who in the name of their lnltur have done so much harm to civilization.
 The American consulate, which has not been occupied since early in the war, has not suffered greatly from the constant bom- bardment
 One shell pierced the roof and left some marks of it's explosion, while all the windows have been destroyed.
 In the cathedral itself great change has taken place in recent months Great gaping holes show in the roof All the ancient stained glass has fallen out in millions of fragments onto the stone floor, and as con sequence of the shell explosions in and around the building the statues of saints have crumbled; frequent craters show in the floor; all the woodwork has succumbed to the flames, and at any moment a big shell may cause the whole structure to col lapse.
 Nearly 700 shells have hit the bnilding One of them-a twelve-inch projectile not explode, and that now stands on its base beside one of the pillars of the nave

Among the passengers arriving in Fair banks on August on the auto stage was J. W. Fielder merchant of the Kusko- kwim country He came by way of Fair banks because he missed the last boat for the Kuskokwim which went by way of the outside passage and up along the south west coast of Alaska. MT. Fielder told the News Miner that things were quiet when he left home the mining game being affected somewhat by the high WET prices of hard ware Captain Langley, we'll known in Fair banks, this spring brought his whole family up to Bethel, and they have been enjoying life there all summer.

SENATOR DAN SUTHERLAND
 ENTERS UNITED STATES NAVY

In letters received from Seattle, friends are advised that Senator Dan Sutherland of the Fourth judicial division of Alaska has gone into the naval service as a marine engineer, says the Fairbanks News Miner of August :. He went Outside shortly after the declaration of war, stating that he would offer his services to the government in any capacity that they might demand. For time nothing was heard from him, but on one of the recent mails letters stated definitely that he had joined the colors.
 Senator Sutherland was brought up at Gloucester, Mass, and ran out of there for some time on fishing vessels. Later, in Southeastern Alaska, he was interested in fishing vessels and had an opportunity to perfect his knowledge of marine engineer ing

PACIFIC PORTS PROFITING

The German U-boat is adding daily to the world importance of the ports of Ia coma, Seattle, Portland, San Pedro and San Francisco, according to recent com municaton from the national council of defense to the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce. The council states that the Pa cifc will doubtless escape the Uboat men, ace because of the difficulty of establishing bases, and the vast range of water to be covered. As result vast shipments to Russia and points in the far East which would ordinarily go by way of New York will be brought to the Pacific coast for de- livery across the ocean. In order to care for this increased trade two large piers will be built at Vladivostok, and the ter minals of the Trans-Siberian railway will be enlarged.

 More Money for Road-An immediate re- suit of the inspection tour of Captain J. c. Mehaffey this past week was an additional appropriation of sl0,000 toward the build ing of the Ruby Long road Mehaffey wired to Juneau that the $30,O00 allotted would prove insufficient and recommended the supplementary sum of Sl0,0OO, which the Alaska road commission promptly granted, wiring to Ward Estey. Estey had asked that that amount was the necessary mini mum.

 Wanted Provisional Citizenshi p.-Judge Bunnell has denied the petition for citizen ship of Gustaf Franzen and has ordered his name reported to the attorney general at Washington. District Attorney R. r. Roth questioned Franzen as to whether or not in view of America being at war with imperial Germany, he would be willing, if granted American citizenship, to support his new country by taking up arms in her defense To which the pleader answered htat it would be against his principles to leave the shores of America to fight on foreign soil and that he would only take up arms in the defense of America in the event of invasion. Judge Bunnell indignantly brought the examina- tion to an abrupt ending, scoring the man before the court, saying that America wanted no half-hearted citizens, and that, since he could not promise loyalty to the country he wished to enter as a citizen, he would dis miss his application. Turning to District Attorney Roth, the court then ordered that Frsnzen's name be placed in the hands of the attorney general.

HOW KENTUCKY FATHER
 DEALT WITH STACKER SON

With the declaration, "1f l had thou sand sons, I'd put every one of them in the army" John Calhoun Allen, big Kentucky mountaineer, interrupted proceedings Tn Judge Mayors part of the United States district court as his son, 24 years old, who bears his name was about to be sentenced to prison as registration stacker, says a New York dispatch of July 23.
 So emphatic plea did the father make that the youth was immediately released in his custody upon his pledge that he would register forthwith. If he don't register, I'll just take him right out into the public square an shoot him an make a holiday of it," the parent explained that's how we do in Clay county"
 It was dramatic scene to which the court room was treated when father and son stood before the bar. The young man had been arrested in the first roundup of sackers and had refused to register when brought into court, saying that in his boy hood in the Clark and bloody" state he had witnessed so many atrocities that he himself would not fight.
 Suspecting that his mind might have become affected, Thomas D. Mccarthy, United States marshal communicated with the young mans father, and the father ar rived in New York and strode into the marshars office, clad in hip boots, corduroy trousers, collGrless blue shirt and broad brimmed hat

Glacier Ice at S2 per Ton

A contractor at Juneau offers to furnish glacier ice gathered from the water near Juneau at S2 ton to fishermen, who now pay $6 a ton for artificial ice and $4 for glacier ice. The glacier ice is as hard as flint, and goes two and half times as far as the manufactured ice, fishermen say. The furnishing of glacier ice as regular industry recalls that ice was almost the first of Alaska's exports. More than fifty years ago sailing ships were loaded with glacier ice from the Sitka neighborhood and it was shipped to San Francisco for use there.
