he added, "there has been thrown the

CHURCHES CAN
HELP SAVE COAL
Emergency Fuel From the Farm
Woodland to Help the War
Situation.

Washington, D. G. Many churches,
help the fuel situation by using wood
for heating, says the United States
Department of Agriculture, which
advocates the substitution of wood
from the farm woodlot for coal, in
these days of shortage, wherever
practicable.
For heating churches the Depart
ment points out that wood has some
obvious advantages, because the heat
is required only occasioally and is
then wanted in large volume at short
notice. After the period of required
warmth is over, it is desirable that
the heat should die down as soon as
possible All these qualities are OBJ
tainable with wood as with no other
fuel
For Halls and Lodges
The same argument that hold for
churches, hold in a less measure, per-
haps, for rural schools, for halls used
enthusiastically for lodge and
grange meetings and the like. In
many instances, the Department
points out, these buildings arc heated
by coal just because it has become
tho custom to use it, even, through
wood might be more economical. The
amount of coal saved by any one in
stitution might not account to much,
but in the aggregate, says the Depart
ment, the possible saving is consid-
cradle.
Coal to Ton
In heating value, one cord of the
best woods is said to equal one ton of
hard coal, while a cord of some of
the softer woods equals ton of soft
coal. Thus IL the consumer can buy
coal at IS a ton, it would not pay him
to burn wood at the same price a
cord, because coal is the more con-
venient fuel. But If the shortage of
coal becomes really acute, people
living in wooded regions will have a
wreat advantage over those living in
the prairie and plains States, espec
tally If they have a supply already
dry. In fact, it may become a pat
riotic service to burn wood in order
to relieve coal for the war industries
and for people in sections wholly de-
pendant on coal.
The whole question of wood for
fuel is discussed in publication en-
titled Emergency Fuel from the
Farm Woodlot." which may be OBJ
tanned by asking the United States
Department of Agriculture at Wash
ington. d. c., for Circular 70.

and Stratford. It expects relief in
a few days, however, as result OF
the federal order issued last week to
the mine operators of Pennsylvania
that they cease sending coal to the
Great Lakes and begin shipments to
New England.
The situation is still more acute in
the case of bituminous coal and. at
least one factory in Connecticut has
had to close down as a result Of the
shortage. At present the outlook
for consumers who have not made
contracts in advance IS considered
rather discouraging.

risk being surrounded by the Austro-
Germans, who have advanced either
higher or lower on the river than
the position occupied by the Italians.
Meanwhile the Italian retreat has
greatly shortened the fighting line,
reducing 1t to scarcely thirty miles
in length. This favors the concen-
tratton of Italian forces for defence.
The French and British represen-
tatives who have come to Italy had a
conference of two hours today with
King Victor Emmanuel. The mill
tary measures called for by the pres
emit situation were discussed in active
and cordial collaboration. On leav-
ing the King the party visited French
and British troops going toward the
front.
In the party are the British Pre-
mier, David Lloyd George; the French
Premier, Paul Painleve; the Italian
Premier, Vittorio Orlando; Lieut..
Gen. Sir William Robertson, chief of
the Imperial Staff at british Army
Headquarters; Major-Gen. Wilson,
Gen. SHUTS, formerly the British
commander in South Africa; the
Italian Foreign Minister, Baron Som
nino; the French Minister of Missions
ABROAD, henry franklin OuIilOns
Gen. Foch and their staffs.
Among military officers the deci-
sion of the Allies to create a perma-
nent military. committee has caused
great satisfaction. It is accepted as
evidence that the Allies have awaken
ed to the necessity for the closest
union Of the whole length of the
western front for the political and
military conduct Of the war.
Gen. Diaz is rated as one of the
ab1est Italian military leaders. For
years he was connected with the
General Staff! He took part in the
Libyan war, serving as a Colonel,
and was wounded SO severely that he
asked to be wrapped in a flag, feel-
ing that death was at hand.

'. S. TO BUILD
$4,000 PLANES
FOR WAR NEEDS


Washington. Nov. 1o--The magni-
tude of the aviation program upon
which the United States will en-
mark on the completion of the pres
emit authorized construction about
July is to be determined shortly in
a series of conferences among the
aeronautic experts of the allied mar
tions.
Because OF the rapidly increasing
importance of airplanes in military
operations and the growing convic-
ton among military officials that a
preponderating supremacy in the air
will bring victory to the allied arms
1T As thei belief here that in the last
six months Of 1918 the United States
win manufacture at least twice as
many sairplanes and motors as WI.
have been manufactured in all the
time from the entrance of the United
States into the war up to July 1,
1918, q period of about fifteen
months.
Reduced to figures this means that
in the last half of 1918 American fac
tories will turn out Approximately
1000 airplanes and 100000 motors,
the majority of them of the Liberty
type. Included in the estimate of the
output involved in the present pro-
gram the United States Will have
manufactured for war purposes about
s75,0 900 airplanes and 10000 motors
BY the end of 1918.
Although this program has not
been definitely settled upon and will
not be until the aviation heads of the
allied governments give it their ap-
prevail within the next few weeks, the
present military policy OF the Allies
will require a vastly increased pro-
duction, which American officials say
probably win put upon this country
the task Of doubling It's first program
and completing it within approx
mately six months
At the conference, soon 10 be held
there will be established among the
Allies complete coordination in
the manufacture of airplanes, mo-
tors and accessories such as that
which is taking place in every other
line of military endeayor. The forte
OF the United States will be the
quantity production of the standard
Liberty motor and the British type
Of biplane in which 1t will be INSTALL
ed.
Next to that the industries of this
country win manufacture in guam
THY parts and accessories for Amer
lean machines and for the machines
OF the Allies. The factories in this
country undoubtedly will center their
efforts on the manufacture Of bomb
ing airp1anes, leaving the production
OF speedy combat machines largely
to the highly developed plants in
France and England. This govern
ment, however, will not neglect the
epeedier type. Manufacturers here
win follow all the developments and
improvements in this type Of machine
and viii produce enough to keeI
abreast OF the progress made.
1t is the prediction here that next
summer will see aerial warfare de-
veioped to proportions hitherto I'M
dreamed Of With the acquisition Of
the great fleet of aircraft the United
States will be able to send over by
that time the Allies will attempt ar
invasion OF Germany by the air route
with squadrons of combat machines
and the heavier but more destruc.
tive bombing planes.
