BY JAMES n. COLLINS.

WashingtOn.-A British naval officer
who has been doing teamwork with
the American destroyers in the subma.
rine zone said the other day: "There
are just three points upon which !
would want to criticize Uncle Sam 8
sailors: First. they are too we'll fed
second, they are too we'll clothed !;
third, they are too well paid"
"The best fed body of men in the
world" our navy has been pronounced,
and the figures just compiled for the
navy ration this year show that the
high standard has been maintained.
despite the rise in the cost of food ar
ticles, with very little extra expense to
Uncle Sam.
War has added some complications
to the task of feeding the navy, for
the number of men has suddenly in
creased from about $4,000 to more than
100000, and hundreds Of small patrol
boats and submarine chasers have been
manned by our sailors on duty in coast
defense districts and elsewhere. Uncle
Sam has been able to maintain his
navy diet economically by large pur-
chases for the increased forces.
Uncle Sam feeds his sailors, not ex-
actly regardless of cost, but with cost
always the secondary consideration.
As Admiral MCGOWAN, paymaster gen.
eral Of the navy puts IT.: "Cost is
by-product." What the sailor eats Is
governed by the revised statutes,
which specify the quantities of the
various food staples which may be is
sued to each man in the naval service,
and good nourishuent and palatabil-
ity come first, with cost figured out at
the end Of the year after the men
have been fed.
. Increase In Cost.
The navy ration for 1917 cost
$O.4405 as against $O3764S for 1915.
These mystic decimals Indicate an in
crease In the average cost of the ration |
of about 40 per cent over the preced- |
ing year. statistics compiled by the
department Of labor show that there
was an increase of 40 per cent in the
wholesale prices of the principal items
Of food. Had the navy ration in
creased in cost to the same extent the
outlay would have been slightly over
$4,000 q day more, or $1,500,OO0 more
on the year, which may be regarded as
money saved.

Matter Of CLOTHING.

In the matter Of clothing war has
brought the navy even greater activ-
ity. This winter for the first time in
many years Uncle Sans Jack tars re-
quire heavy winter clothing. For in
the peaceful winters since the Spanish
war most Of our warships have spent
the cold months in the West Indies,
where chiefly the lighter summer
was adequate and the amount
of heavy winter clothing required very
small.
Take the old navy Of $4,000 men,
increase 1t In a few months to more
than 100000. and send 1t into the chill,
damp climate of the submarine zone
off the British isles. from latitude 20
straight up to latitude go. and anyone
ran see that whole new scheme of
is required.
Just the other day the navy was
to issue statement on this
point to discredit rumOrs that its men

women would have to knit sweaters,
socks, mittens, and other heavy wooden
for them. Nothing to II

URGING SCHOOL BOARDS TO
EMPLOY NEVADA TEACHERS

At its meeting held Saturday the
State Board of Education considered
118 applications for teachers GER
tiacates, says the Carson News. In.
cluded in this number are the 81
graduates from the normal courses
at the state university as well as
those from the various county nor
mails. 1t is the largest number OF
trained teachers to be sent out from
the institutions at any time in the
states history. The school authorities
are urging the school boards TO give
the states own trained teachers pref
erence In the employment OF teach
ers for the coming year. Information
regarding the records. qualifications
and abilities OF all these young folks
as judged by their teachers and train
ers may be had upon application tc

sity and the normal schools.

try are located at New York, in charge
OF Elliott Norton.
