leather has risen enormously in price,
the army still wears the best shoes

Food is more plentiful at the front

the measure that from a district de-

to carry them out for the common
purpose.
Several trips to various German
and Austro- Hungarian fronts have
shown the Associated Press cores
pondent that relations between the
Austro-Hungarian and German sol
diers are the best. They may be
found together in the same artillery
position and the same firing line. Us
ually keen rivalry exists between
them, military necessity thus provid-
ing for new incentive to do the best.
A new feature of the European war
in 1916 was the participation on the
Dobrudja and Russian fronts by OF
toman troops. Recurring mention of
them in the official war reports shows
that the Turk is proving of great
value even here.
The year made heavy demands
upon Austria Hungary's supply of
war material, but has not exhausted
it. The scarcity in copper and tin
has been met by employing iron and
other available metals. Though cop
per roofs have been confscated by
the government, and even church
bells melted down, the shortage in
such metals has so far not affected
the war in the least. Thousands of
tons of copper, brass, tin and nickel
articles are being exchanged for sim
liar articles made of iron, and it is
considered as altogether unlikely that
the Eastman would fire cartridge
made from the last candlestick in
the monarchy, as the saying goes.
The clothing of the troops remains
fairly good. The fact that old ter
tiles are again and again converted
into new fabrics has robbed the Aus
tro- Hungarian army of the neatness
its pike gray" uniforms gave it two
years ago. Then the Austro-Hunga-
rian army was probably the best
dressed in all Europe. Today this is

SHOWS EFFECTS OF.
RUMAN|AN At TACK.

Broos, Pennsylvania, Jon. 30.-Cor-
respondence of the Associated Press.
Long lines Of refugees waiting pa
tiently for a chance to get back TO
their homes farther in the mountains,
hundreds if not thousands of soldiers
returning from burroughs and strug-
Cling to find even standing room in
the irregular trains, timetables turn
ed topsy-turvy and twenty to thirty
car trains that begin their journeys
two hours behind time and end them
from six hours to half a day be-
hind schedule.
Such is one of the superficial eff
fects Of the Rumanian campaign. The
Rumanians have long since been
pushed back into and across their
own country, but it will be weeks be-
fore the disturbance which they Gre
ated viii have subsidized; it will be
weeks before the festively-clad peas
ants shall all have found their way
to their abandoned homes.
With the entrance Of Rumania, war
in reality, came home to lower Hun
gary for the first time. 1t had con-
trihuted its quota of men to the Aus
trian army, but that it had done in
peace times. The Russian advances
into the Carpathians had left it un-
scathed. It was not until the RI-
manians swept through the passes
and occupied portion of Transylva-
MIA that the Hungarians of their sec
ton really knew thaS they too were

must be done In many instances the
psychological effect has been that the
man has come to look upon military
service as did the mercenary in CEN
turtles gone by. Work at the front
has become a profession with him.
He has no other cares than those re
lated to his own person, and death
has lost its terror by almost daily
contact A sad feature of this is
that the man has been completely
weaned away from mis- family. 1t is
nothing unusual to have soldiers on
furlough return to the front before
the time is up. At the front they
are carefree and all worry belongs to
the officer.

TABLE FOR ONE ARM
MADE

Berlin, Jan. 30.-After countless
experiments, = drawing table or
board has been invented which, by
means of magnets to hold T-square
and triangles tight, can be utilized
by one-armed men. 1t had been fear
ed that many soldiers, who were ar
chitects before the war, who have
either lost one arm or It's use, would
have to go into some other calling
after the conflict. The new invention
opens up great possibilities for them
after all
The new table is so arranged that
an electric current can be turned on
with the foot which will catch and
hold perfectly tight by means of tiny
magnets any object that may lie on
top of the table. The one armed
draughtsman has onsy to adjust his
implements exactly to his liking,
press a lever with his foot, and then
take a pencil or pen and work with
it.
The use Of the magnets has even
been varied so that only small por-
ton of the top of the table is mag
netized at once, requiring only a
minimum amount of current. The
new invention, which was evolved in
the turbine shops of the General
Electric Company, can be operated
from an ordinary electric light con-
nection, or, if desired, through bat
teries.

of the Associated Press) The clos
ing days of 1916 found Austria Hun
gary more or less in the position she
was in at the end of 1915. Tha re-
sources of the dual monarchy, men
and material alike, were further de-
pleted by military operations, but
the nature Of the demands made by
that Austria Hungary has not suffer
ed more than her antagonists, it is
declared.
While the Austro- Hungarian losses
in men have been heavy, there is no
reason to believe that the army has
ceased to be strong organization.
Depreciation in numerical strength
has been attended by great improve
ments in Organization and leadership.
The lessons brought by the war have
been eagerly employed. The capa-
city of the officer has been heightened
and the almost complete merger Of
the army with the German forces CO.
operating with it has resulted in a
uniformity of action which the ar
rangements obtaining at the outbreak
of the war could not effect. At the
lower Eastern and Rumanian front it
is impossible today to find tactical

mans and Austro- Hungarian may in
turn outnumber one another in a
larger organization, may be COM
