The consumption OF the United
States in 1915 is stated at $4,000 tons,
against 10000 tons in 1914. The writer
believes that the aluminium industry
is certainly preparing to play very
active part after the war. not only in
construction of automobiles and aero
planes, but in other industries. A
large field is the use of various alumni
mum alloys. A great future is pre-
dicted for the metal as competitor
of copper and even Of tin plates.
The War Bureau Of the Prussian
Ministry of War has announced the
impending withdrawal of large num-
bers of exemptions from military
service. II is stated that no more ex-
empted men will be taken for the army
from agriculture. On the other hand,
the German authorities propose to
bring back men from the army to the
mines, in order to increase the produc-
ton of coal, and it is observed that
substitutes for the army "can be OBJ
tanned only from the war industries
At the same time it is intended that
there shall be an exchange OF soldiers
at present in the field, especially
skilled workers with families, and men
now exempted at home.
The following articles are now pro-
hibited for expectation from Sweden
TO all countries and also in transit
through Sweden:
Pork and bacon.-Smokcd and other
kinds. Crustaceous animals such as
lobster, prawn, and crabs; boiled or
not.
Grass.--Not specially mentioned.
Hops, fruits Of trees. and berries
Fresh or boiled; even il crushed or
otherwise broken up. Cocoanuts.--
Dried. Copra nuts and chestnuts.-
Preserved in spirit. vinegar, or oil.
Vegetables.-No specially men
toned. Fresh.-Melons. cucumbers and
tomatoes, asparagus, onions. and cab
bage; other kinds. Sailed or dried,
even with mixture Of roots. Preserved
in spirit or vinegar, or picked. Mush-
rooms. edible; manioc, tapioca, cssssvs.
or arrowroot.
Cod.-Roe in barrels, sailed, but not
otherwise prepared. Caviare and sailed
fsh.-Roe; not specially mentioned;
even if preserved in hermeticaily
sealed vessels. Pate de foie gras; tails
of crayfsh; soy and sauces; mineral
waters; liquorice; absinthe; wine;
nitrate of lime.
In order to maintain the supply OF
clothing for the essential needs Of the
civil population of Great Britain at rea-
sonable prices it has been recommended
that a limited number Of standardized
articles in the manufacture Of which
wool forms a constituent part should be
instituted for the home trade and that
the particular method of standardiza-
ton should be worked out BY represen-
tatiye committees of each branch OF
the trade. There are stocks OF cioth
and clothing in the hands Of merchants
and retailers in England sufficient 70
clothe the population with reasonable
economy for at least twelve months.

Last weeks news budget was al
most uniformly favorable. There
was the Senate's action in pairing
down the proposed war tax levy and
the elimination of certain objectiona-
BILE features frem the income tax
programme. This came toward the
close Of the week, and was strongly
commended in financial circles. Then
there was the better showing of the
Allied naval forces against the Ger
man submarine menace and official
intImation in England that the
danger of Germany's winning the
war with her submarine campaign
was passing. Less was heard of
peace talk, and conviction seems to
be growing on all sides that the war
will go through at least another
winter. A thing that helped to i'm
prove sentiment in the Street was
the better outlook for the success of
the Liberty Loan.

WOMEN TO BE ENLISTED
FOR SERVICE IN u. S. NAVY

Secretary Daniels today ordered ma
val commandants at shore stations and
all recruiting Offices to be prepared to
enlist women in the actual naval service.
in case of an emergency.
The Judge advocate general has ruled
that women can be enlisted under the
laws regulating recruiting.
While 1t Is not intended to place
women aboard ships, they may bs
utilized for shore duty in connection
with coast defense work.
Grades corresponding to the yeoman
class will be given to those qualifying
as stenographers. clerks typists or
similar positions. Training In camps, q
number of which have been organized
under the auspices OF the Navy League,
also will be recognized by navy officials
as a factor in choosing the woman re-
cruits. Another grade of work for
which they may be designated 10 that
of radio telegraphy and other commu.
nication divisions.
Difficulty of obtaining man etencg.
raphers and clerks for tho navy from
among the regular enlisted personnel
caused the question of womens em'
ployment to be taken up. By filling the
positions on shore duty with women
the department expects in time OF
emergency to relieve the men for hset
service and sea duty.
