A SUBSTITUTE FOR HORSES

At least one advanced step has been
taken by experimenting United States
army officers. who have developer
what is believed 10 be the first COM
pletely motorized field battery Of me-
dunn caliber in the world. The prob
lem Of eliminating the horse entirely
from the work OF dragging such guns
to the front is one on which both EI-
ropean and American engineers were
working for years before the outbreak
OF the srea: war Successful expert
ments by the government authorities
now seem TO promise an early substi.

in handling nearly all forms of ord

With success in this line the motori-
zation OF the large howitzer types OF
guns is sure to come. This depends
on the development OF tractors ca

COUNCIL S CONTRETEMPS

Whether it WAS the inclination or
the ignorance Of the provisions OF the
new charter, it Is nevertheless true
that a majority OF the members OF
the new council committed themselves
TO the policy OF secret sessions OF that
body by voting to 90 into executive
session on Friday evening This IS
rather g. bad beginning for the new
government of wheeling. after all the
loud professions that have been made
ON it's behalf. The action taken was
in direct violation Of the charter pro-
visions, which call for the open meet
ings Of all sessions OF council. The
assurance OF several members OF Coun>
Gil that Fridays session would be open
to the public, in conformity to the
law. after their attention was called
to it, suggests that the new council
men should brush up on the organic
ordinance they are operating under.
Presumably the secret conferences
the new council has been holding pre-
vious TO its first steps in organization
was habit that it could not shake
OF all at once. But the question arises
whether the exclusion OF the public
from its preliminary acts in caucus
was not as much violation Of the
spirit as we'll aSthe letter OF the char
ter introduction against secret seS-
sions. Beginning with mistake may
indicate that the new council will be
careful 10 avoid such contretcmp$ in
