What Members of Advisory Com

dertaken to Do.
Big Men GIVING SERVICES
Co-ordlnatlng the industries Of The
Country So That Each Can Rem.
der the Limit Of Its Potential
Service to Government.
BY EDWARD q. CLARK.

ENTHUSIASTICALLY a thousand
times day this question Is asked by
visitors to Washington: "What Is the
Council Of National Defense?"
1t Is apparent also from letters that
are received in the capital that the
exact nature Of the council and Of its
great advisory committee Is not gen.
orally nor thoroughly understood. The
Council Of National Defense itself con-
sists simply Of six cabinet officers, the
secretaries Of war, navy, interior, agri-
culture, commerce and labor. The ad-
visory committee Of national defense,
which is affiliated with the council,
consists of a commission Of seven bust
ness men who, with the departments
assigned to them, are as follows:
Daniel Willard, transportation and
communication (president Baltimore
& Ohio railroad), chairman.
Howard e. Coffin, munitions and
manufacturing Qncluding Standard
zation) and Industrial relations, vice
president Hudson Motor company.
julius Rosenwald, supplies (includ-
ing clothing, etc.,, president Sears,
Roebuck & Co.
Bernard M. Baruch, raw materials,
minerals and metals, banker.
DR.. Hollis Godfrey, engineering and
education, president Drexel institute.
Samuel Gompers, labor, including
conservation Of health and welfare of
workers, president American Fedora
ton Of Labor.
DR.. Franklin Martin, medicine and
surgery, including general sanitation,
secretary General American College of
Surgeons, Chicago.
All Freely Undertaken.
Upon these men devolved the task
of so co-ordinating the industries of
the country that each and all, f1gura-
lively speaking, could render to the
government the limit Of it's potential
service at the pressing of a button.
Less than 100 salaried persons are
working for the government under the
advisory committee Of national de-
fense-of the members Of the com
1nittee itself only one or two have
even rendered expense bills. From
400 to 500 men, whose incomes from
their business ranges from $1,000 to
more than $4,000 a year, are giving
their services to the government that
the United States may perform its
share Of winning the war against Ger.
many.
The vital thing at first was to as.
certain the needs Of the country, to
learn the things industry must supply
to put our soldiers into the field and
Keep them there and to supply the
needs of ourselves and our allies. A
dozen major subjects instantly sug'
gested themselves when the business
men began to put their heads togeth'
