Best Service Column in City.

When 1t is remembered that there are
today under arms more than 24Ooo, ,O0C
soldiers in the European war, the i'm
mensity of the task of keeping these
men in the field and keeping them sup
piled with the munitions with which
they wage war will appear. says the
National Geographic Society Bulletin.
1t has been estimated that It costs ap-
proXimately 500 to outfit a soldier. OF
this IS goes for a gun and $35 for his
loo rounds Of cartridges. The average
life of a uniform under modern service
conditions is very short; that OF the ordi-
nary rifle is six months. In all Of the
history Of war there never has been
such a rapid exhaustion OF all OF the
materials with which 1t is made.
An idea can be gained of the immens-
ity Of the outlay required in the prose-
cution OF a great battle by reference to
some Of the figures from Verdun. A
75-centimeter gun can fire about 100
proJectiles a day. Each OF these pro-
jectiles costs approximately 36. Count
ing this and the depreciation OF the gun,
which is particularly rapid. the daily
outlay for its operation amounts to
S2,T0O 1t Is estimated that the 10 70
centimeter cannon In an army corps,
fired all day, cost in munitions and de-
probation $4,000. In addition to this.
each army corps has about forty pieces
Of heavy artillery. Explosives and de-
probation for a single days work for
them total half a million dollars, making
the total artillery expense OF an army
corps $500, 900 a day
II the outlay in gun metal and powder
Is heavy, It is no more 30 than the out
lay for materials demanded by the pres
ent necessities Of trench warfare. An
officer who has studied this phase of the
present war carefully says that to put
a trench in a state fit for occupation in
winter requires IA million running feet
OF by timber, 5000 running feet of
corrugated iron, Ia million sandbags
weighing 1000 tons. and 2,0O0 standards
and pickets to the mile. In addition to
this, 800 miles OF barbed wire has to Be
used, weighing ITO tons. When one
stops to recall the hundreds of miles of
trenches which stfetch across Europe in
different directions, and how often SEQ
tions of these trenches have to be re-
built, he can gain some idea OF the tre-
mendous amount OF material required in
their Quitting.

In whose eyes Of dancing blue
Clean flashes that enroll YOU
To his own point Of view
To be a mighty fighter.
And to bear a mighty part,
Seems nothing to him lighter
Now, Cunless it be his hearth
He dreams OF thrilling battles.
With the rosy dreams of nine,
Through musketry that ratles.
He commands a glorious line,
No dawn Of disappointment,
No day Of sad defeat,
Now hampers with annointneut,

Oh. happy little soldier.

munitioning trade and the immensity OF
the task Of keeping the armies in the
field and in fighting condition may be
had from the statement that there are
now more than 1000 controlled munition
plants in Great Britain alone OF these
nineteen out OF twenty never produced
war materials before the war broke out.
They employ nearly 100000 men and
nearly 10000 women. The vastness OF
the industry in England is not out OF
proportion to that in France. Although
Germany holds 70 per cent Of France 5
coal and some 50 per cent of its iron.
France has been able, by the opening
up Of new furnaces and by immense i'm
portations of ore and pig metal largely
to overcome this handicap
While It is difficult to present authentic
figures upon the proportions OF the mu-
nitions used by the allies furnished BY
the United States, the figures Of the De
partrpent of Commerce do show some
thing Of the growth Of the muniton
trade. Authorities disagree widely as TO
the percentage Of Americas contribution
to munitions.
One authority puts it as low as . per
cent while another says that it does not
exceed per cent Whatever the per
centage may be, the figures OF the De
partment Of Commerce show that in the
hrst eight months Of 1914 our exports OF
horses, mules, brass and manufactures
OF brass, motor cars, copper, explosives,
India rubber products, iron and steel
manufactures. lead, leather and manu-
factures of leather. nickel, mineral oils,
sugar, surgical apparatus, tin, zinc and
manufactures of zinc amounted to S4S3,
0OO. co.,
In the first eight months Of 1916. our
exports Of those same materials amount
ed to N,9S6, 10000. From these figures it
would appear that our contribution to
the munitions trade of Europe during the
year 1915 would Approximate more than
&'oOOCoO,ooO. Our expectation OF explo-
siYes alone for the calendar year will
reach upward OF 800, 100000 In the first
nine months of 1916 American exports to
the allied nations amounted to s., 80, Co.,
600. rs against S750. 900 900 for all of the
other nations of the earth, beligerent and
neutral alike.
The labor demands OF the munition in
oustry in the United States have reached
unprecedented heights. Recently one big
manufacturer Of munitions requested the
United states army authorities to give
him the names of the rejected recruits
between the ages Of q and so, these men
oeing onered wage from $3.50 to S a
day. with lodging at 50 cents a week.

Somewhere in the u. S. A. or on
its borders men are today facing shot
and shell for your protection. The
first gun of the war has been fred
at an American vessel and reports
from the eastern coast of the coun-
try indicate that America is at last
in the world war. As you bask in
the safety of home, let your thoughts
and support go out to those who are
making this safety possible and let
nothing hinder you from giving your

editorial emitted a WORD 10 tht
Wise" In it we attempted tc
advise Congress to leave to tn,
discretion of the Secretary of tn,
Treasury the rate which the new
Federal bond issues should bear
Congress has failed to take oul
advice. The rate is fixed at 3L1
per cent Congress. with several
hundred members, should. on thi.
point of interest rate, be wiser
than the editor of this paper. and
we shall fully admit that such is
the case. if only one single Sena-
tor or Representative viii be
good enough to inform us as to
where the Secretary is going to
find buyers for $5,OO0,OOO, 600
or even $1,0OO.OOO,oOO Of
bonds bearing only 3Lz per cent.
Of course, we shall buy some
of them anyway. The editor
does not care much whether he
gets ~ or 81 per cent on his
for he cannot afford to
buy many bonds anyway. And
the total amount of purchases
ike his, from Congressman and
other patriots. who are as pa
triotic as the editor, won't ex-
ceed, at the outside. more than a
few score million dollars. What
does that amount to when we are
talking about an issue of
S., 5,OOO.OOO,OOO?
But this interest rate has been
fixed and we must make the best
of it. What is the next point?
The next point is that the admin
ishation is apparently preparing
to kill the goose that lays the
golden egg" We say this with
out hesitation. for we are well
aware that the administration is
doing its very utmost to carry
this war to a successful -conclu-
sion, but the let of Secretary Nc
Adoo's recommendations to the
Ways and Means Committee last
is that he expects to raise
of our necessary war ex-
penditure this year from taxes,
and the other half from bond is
sues. Analyzing his figures. you
will find that he calculates on a
total expenditure for the year of
about $3.5OO,OOO,OOO, and fully
half of that-in fact more than
half-he expects to raise by ex-
ira taxes.
In this endeavor he may sue
ceed for the first year. But if he
does he will succeed in selling
bonds. we fear, to an amount far
less than the necessary other
half. IF Congress should adopt
his tax recommendation, it will
put such a damper upon wealthy
investors and corporations that

the money necessary for the
bond issues. You cannot take
