MANUFACTURERS URGED
TO EXPAND WAREHOUSES;
Storage Committee Warns Of Need
for Increased Facilities Of
This Character.

Manufacturers making goods for the
government, and. in fact, all manufac-
turers. no matter what their product
or for whom it is made. should be en-
couraged to expand their storage ca
pacity at once in every possible way"
In urging this course the storage
committee of the council of national
defense warns that manufacturers are
apt to suffer If they do not comply. A
statement issued by the committee
says:
I'VE cannot continue to allow manu-
completed on the railroads without re-
| gard to the necessities Of the situa-
| ton. This means more storage for
| manufactured articles.
| "As the load on the railroads in
| creases the regularity Of deliveries on
| Individual shipm ents will be interfered
with. If continuity of manufacturing
| is to be maintained our manufacturers
| will have to carry larger stocks of raw
| material. which Will require additional
storage"
The policy Of the storage committee,
as announced. will provide for only
four types of storage areas. The term
area is Interpreted as including open
| spaces, such as are required for lum-
Der and the like; partially Enclosed
! success, such as are used for hay, etc,
and fully inclosed spaces. such as
warehouses.
| The types of these storage areas will
| be at the individual manufacturing
plant: at points of assembly Within a
given manufacturing district to which
goods may be hauled by automobile
| truck or wagon; at points of utiliza-
ton and of consumption, as at the can
| Torment or training camp, and at
| places adjacent to terminal ports and
| from which goods will be Transported
| by ship, motor truck or lighter.

Then the captains nodded and tho rifles
began to crackle all along that line. The
first rank dropped, and the second rank
moved on across their writhing bodies,
still singing. There came a rift in the
clouds so that the last pale rays OF a
wintry sun shone down upon the scene.
The cries of the wounded rose until q
tragic undertone mingled with the mourn

were screaming in a German rage-the
Juror Teutonicus-and others were grunt-
ing in sort Of battle delirtum. Over all
rang that wonderful male chorus. how
ever and so they sang, and so they
marched on and so they died. until in the
end they crowded us out by sheer weight
Of numbers and took the trench. Toward

crawled over hedge Of bodies to get at
