The Natchitoches enterprise., 1917-07-12

A general upheaval in the war gov
eminent at Washington is taking place.
Coordination has become the watch
word, speed the rule and efficiency the
object.
The President has decided upon a
''big four war board" This will act
in an advisory capacity to his cabinet
and be in charge of the tremendous
detail coming under the heads of rail
road and Industrial work, mobilization
and dissemination of raw materials,
distribution sof finished product and
general purchasing. 1t viii supplant
the present advisory commission Of the
council.
This big change is only the beginning
of a general movement all along the
line to coordinate the war work. The
present commission has done much in
making this possible by compiling
masses Of data bearing on all masses Of
war preparation. Scores Of commit
tees probably will be eliminated as the
first step of the war board"
An outline Of this board S work, in
dicates an intention to revolutionize
the government during the period Of
the war. The ''war board" will have
as one of its functions, it is declared,
the determination of a basis Of cost of
all materials for everyone in the coun-
try-soldier, sailor and civilian alike.
This naturally led to the belief tonight
that laws permitting the government
to commander COAL oil steel and other
necessaries will be asked of Congress.
The United Press informant on these
spectacular government changes sup
ported them as follows:
Concentrating those powerr is abso-
lutely essential. There was no more
autocratic government in the world
than the United States government in
1864. yet there was no more efficient or
democratic government.
secretary Daniels declared quickly |
tdat sit is a question of very short
time. before the government will be
forced to commander the oil and coal
supply of the country
The further the government goes in
to the war the more and more evident
it becomes that powers are to be vast
ly extended to centralized agents. -

Past and Present

Modern progress is accompanied by
curious anarchronisms. Heretofore we
have always associated the gypsy peo-
pies with handsome horses and with
mysterious vans moved by equine
power. And now though the gypsy sur
wives, with all his physical characteris-
tics, nomadic habits and tribal tradi-
tions and customs, he discards the pic
turesque environment of former days
and roves around in a touring car. It
De ems almost as inappropriate and in
consistent as it would be to represent
one of the Paraohs as sailing over the
Red Sea in an aeroplane. Neverthe-
less, for predacious purposes, of which
the gypsy is always suspected, the auto
is much more convenient. /.
Extremes still meet in modern life
as in other generations, and the past
lags on the stage of the present, if not
superfluous, yet with a suggestion of
strange incongrunity. As for instance
in Southern Maryland, where one may
see on the same road in an hours jour
ney dozen lightning autocars whiz by
an equal number of slow oxcarts, pom
derous and patient survivals of an
older and more leisure dayr-Sun.

Aviation School
Plan For Tulane

The government offers the university
$ll, 200 a month and equipment for the
school, the object of which will be to
teach the students military drill and
regulations, and, the basic ideas of
flying to prepare them for the aviation
field schools where they will learn later
the art of steering an armed airplane.
Organization of the school is as fol-
lows:
Each week twenty-five students re-
port to the army officer who is acting
as commandant. The course lasts
eight weeks, so that after the school
has been running that long there will
be 200 aviation students always at the
university. AS soon as the school is
running on this basis the governm ent
will be paying So, 900 monthly to the
university for tuition alone. The uni
Ver5lty IN turn will furnish instructions
and sleeping quarters for the students.
GOVERNMENT WILL
SUPPLY EQUIPMENT
Engines, airplanes, machine guns,
textbooks and pamphlets will be sup
Piled by the government. At the COM
pletlon of the course each student must
pass written examination before he
is recommended for transfer to flying
schools.
Subjects for examination are as fol-
lows;
Theory of flight, including care, con-
struction and rigging Of airplanes;
cross county and general flying, in
GLIDING meterorology, astronomy, pho.
Biography and instruments; aerial OBJ
servation, including artillery observa-
ton, miniature range, map reading and
reconnaissance; gunnery, including the
care and operation of machine guns,
BOMBS and bombing, signaling and
wireless, militery regulation, including
the formation of troops, customs OF
the service and army regulations.
Schools of this kind have been es-
taoished at Princeton, Cornell, Illinois,
Texas, Ohio State, California and at i
the Massachusetts and Georgia tech |
biological schools. Each student is al |
lowed 81 day for food and twenty-five
dollars month for tuition. States.
