MORTALITY IN WAR.
q to 1 Chance to Be Alive at End OF
First Year at Front

The American. soldier in France
has % chances to be alive at the
end of the first years service at the
front, to one of being dead. Four
men out of every hundred who reach
the firing line will be killed in one
years time.
This figure gives the lie to the de-
liberate misstatements circulated in
print and word of mouth by German
agents or pacifists.
The order of danger in the various
branches of the army is:
Medical and sanitary service.
2-Engineers, miners and sappers.
3-Infantry.
4-Artillery.
5-AviatiOn.
The doctors have the most danger
Gus Job, the airmen the safest. Cav
airy is no longer used, unless as in
fantry.
These yarns about the average life
of an officer at the front being less
than two weeks, of a surgeon less
than a month, are of piece with
the fantastic stories of men being
drugged to make them fight, or of
the French army refusing to fight,
circulated at the outbreak of the war
in crank and anarchist circles.
The war college figures and esti-
mates indicate the total loss in one
year of all the belligerents as about
four per cent killed in action, died
of wounds and died of disease.
These figures compiled from casu-
atty lists obtained both from the al
lies and the central powers are prob
ably too high for the fighting On the
western front, where the arts of pro-
lection, cover, trenching and bar
rage fire cut down the number o!
slain.
The average is fattened by the
heavy losses on the Russian front
where the officers of the czar fre
quently drove unarmed men to storm
German trenches, enfilading theil
own troops in the rear with machine
gun fire to force them forward.
The estimate also includes the ter
ribly heavy losses of the first months
of the war on the western front Whe1
the fighting was in the open and large
masses of men were frequentl.
caught by machine guns or subjected
to direct sharpnel bombardment.
There is reason to believe the west
ern front losses were twice as heay.
earlier in the war as they are today
This conclusion is supported by fig

SPECIAL TAXES FOR GOOD
ROADS

Now that it is evident to the
masses of the land owners through
out Iberia Parish that it will be an
utter impossibility on the part of the
Police Jury to either build new
roads, or maintain, in an Efficient
manner, those that we have, for the
reason that the Parish of Iberia is so
heavily burdened with debt, it be-
hooves those interested in goodroads
to work up a sentiment for special
road taxes in every Ward of the
Parish. It was our pleasure to dis
cuss these important matters with
Hon. Fritz Dietlein this week, and
he is imbued with the idea that it
will be only by creating road dis
tricts, booked by special taxes in the
different Wards, that gravel or shell
can be constructed. He, like a ma
jority of members Of that Body see
no other alternative but the voting
Of special taxes to keep up the work
under the present conditions. At
the meeting of the Police Jury
which took place on Thursday of
last week, Hon. Alden Gonsoulin
stated in open meeting that the SEN
timent to build gravel road in the
Fourth Ward was very pronounced,
and he had reasons to believe all of
the land owners would pay tax
es to build a gravel road, if the
proposition was sumitted to them
for their approval. In. most Wards
Of the Parish we have strong ad-
vocates for better roads and most of
tie property owners now realize
that the only way in which they can
get them is by imposition upon
themselves of sufficient tax to ac-
complish these improvements. There
is no doubt were tax submitted to
the property holders in the Six
tn Ward it would be carried. This
Ward and the land owners of the
third should by all means take the
lead, and then we feel certain it
would be but short time before
Iberia Parish would have graved
roads leading to neighboring towns,
north, south, east and west.
Nearly every Parish in Louisi-
ana has seen the fallacy Of trying to
keep up dirt roads that 60 to pieces
with every spell Of rainy weather
and gravel being the cheapest and
best for permanent highways, most
Of the parishes in Louisiana use
nothing else.-New Iberia Enter
