Exports to German eateways.

| Washington, June 6 Especial cor.
respOndence) Recent ascertainment
of the fact that both Denmark and
Sweden discontinued publishing en-
port statistics as soon as the war
broke out casts suspicion on the
claims of those governments tilat
the huge increases of their purchases
from the United States have been
due to their inability to buy from
Germany. Prior to our declaration
of war on Germany Secretary of Com
merce ,1tedfield was trying to convince
us that our increased sales to the
four German gateWays were attribut-
able to the phenomenal activities OF
the bureau of foreign and domestic
| commerce. Since that declaration.
however Mr.. Redfield has come out in
favor of a bill empowering the Presi-
dent to limit or prohibit the EeXp0rta-
ton ss9farticles fro mthe United, States
q bill which has been introduced in
Congress-, A resolution was introduc.
ed calling OH Secretary oil Commerce
to give data as to the volume OF
American products passed on to the
Central Powers by neutral countries,
but apparently no information is
forthcoming from Sweden and Den
mark. ... s,@
Our own figures for the past four
calendar years show an astonishing
increase in our exports to the four
approaches to Germany since the war
began, rising from $lG3,000,O9O in
value in 1913 to $348, 100000 in 1915,
and receding to $2S5, 100000 last year
a total all too great now that we
have (jOined in the war against the
nations which apparently are bene-
fitting largely thereby. Raw GcottOn
and fOodstuf1s take front rank in the
list OF articles bought from us, the
former being Indispensable in the
manufacture of explosives. OF course
acting as middlemen for the sale OF
American goods to Germany is a
thrifty proceeding, and one which was
highly admired by our cotton grow.
ers so long as we were neutral, but
the time has come to lend a hand to
England to enforce the blockade, OF
the Huns, and the bin before Con-
gress is step in that direction.
The following gives the value of
our exports to the German gateways
for the past four years:
Denmark-l9l3, $lS,Gl7,OO0; 1914,
$41,945,OOO 1915. $73.507 900; 1916,

year $4,000, 900, and the third year,
when the town is in the most utter
distress, its trade annihilated. shops
closed, and industries destroyed, you
double the tribute and raise 1t to

u. S. Hero Dead Will
Rest in French Soil
Until War Is Over

Any American soldiers who give
their lives in France will be re-
turned to this country eventually
for burial.
All bodies will be inferred tenn
porarily in French soil. A special
army branch known as the
graves registration service" will
keep these spots lowered and
weedless, and ultimately arrange
for return of the bodies to
America Major Charles Pierce,
a regular army chaplain, will be
In charge.
Back Of the firing line the tenn
porary cemeteries will be main
tained, and the chaplain's service
will record the name and location
Of each buried hero.
Each soldier wears ABOUT his
neck two Identification tags, one
OF which is to be returned to the
commander Of his unit in case OF
death. The graves service intsrs
the other with the body, and
places above the grave an iron
marker with the tag number.
Should the commanders marker
be lost the other tag will serve
as Identification.

ARMY CAMPS ARE
BUILT WITH VIEW
TO MEMS HEALTH

These are built with buried posts or
stanchions. Joists or Joined boards
may be used for the posts. The walls
are boarded up both from without and
within, and the hollow spaces between
are flled with turf. moss. earth. or
whatever is handy, to protect against
the cold, as well as to stop flying bits
Of shrapnel. In deep winter It is Oft
en- customary to Jacket the whole
building with earth, all the way up to
the gables, leaving only q burrowed
opening for entrance and air.
For cooking, trenches IL to 2 feet
In depth and ga feet wide are used.
In one side wall an average OF nve
holes are dug and the excavated earth
10 thrown up In front as windshield
II there are no buildings near which
contain kitchens, hearths are built Of
brick or of limestone and mortar.
ThSse masons can build such q hearth
in one day with six hundred bricks
and cover the whole with q protective
roof. For . single company there
must be three cauldrons Of 176 quarts
capacity each.
Hew Field ovens Are Built.
Field ovens can be built II. neees-
sary by the hsid bakery column, and
for this purpose the column always
carries with It an iron frame upon
which the bricks can be laid. In the
Prusslan army this frame Is always
built in 30 firmly that the bricks must
be broken up before 1t can be re-
leased upon evacuation OF the campI
but the allies have these frames only
as "false works." which can be slip
ped In and out OF the oven even
though It is 4 harder piece of build
Ing to accomplish.
The water supply of q camp Is a
matter OF great Importance. Prac-
tically nothing but runoing water can
be used. For the German army the
up stream water Is used for drinking
purposes and the down stream water
TOR Watering the horses and for bath
ing. Suitable signs notify the men
which water Is safe to drink and
which IL only for washing and bath
ing. In shallow or narrow streams
basins are dug or small dams erect
cd so that there may be q reservoir
OF ample dimensions.
Pipes may be driven II water lies
at q reasonable depth; not more than
twenty feet, say. Depending on
their size, these pipes will deliver
from four to twenty-five gallons Of
water q minute. II water lies very
near the surface q hole is dug and
q cask, the bottom of which has been
knocked out, Is sunk into the hole
to give the basin q rim
II water lies at a greater depth the
basin is often formed Of box sections,
driven In one on top OF the other. II
the depth IL greater than three meters
the water must be raised by means Of
q suction pump. But, one way or the
other, Il must be raised, must be
had in plenty. For a full supply Of
water Is a necessity as well as one
OF the greatest luxuries an army in
the camp can enjoy.

GAG LAW APPLIED
AT CAMP MEADE;
APPEAL TO BAKER

CAMP MEADE, Oct. 1s-A gag
law" prohibiting officers and men
at Camp Meade from talking to news
paper men has been applied by au-
thorities. All commissioned officers
have tbeen required to sign an Of
fetal order binding them to silence.
The gag" order a. made to apply
to the District soldiers and officers
in camp was promulgated by Major
Zane, commanding the S12th ma
chine gun battalion, of which the
District selected men form q part
It reads:
Pursuant to instructions from the
commanding general OF the seventy
ninth division, all officers and en-
listed men are ordered to furnish no
news of any kind whatever for pub
lication to newspaper reporters, or
to others who might find q way for
its publication. All news will be
given out from division headquar-
tsrS."
II IL argued that the camp author
tiles would do better to establish q
censorship and require the reporters
to submit all articles before mailing
or wiring than to shut off complete
ly their sources of news.
The matter has been taken before
Secretary Baker in an effort to bring
about amendment of the restrictions.
A big Liberty loan rally Is being
hsld today. The music OF seven bands
could be heard a. the units of the
Seventy-nlnth division assembled from
every quarter OF the big reservation.
The speakers on the program are
Gen. Tasker H. Bliss, Ex-Governor
