Canal Locks Are Destroyed.

The destruction of canal locks. NJ

as the damage done to railroads. All
canal boats also were broken up. and
every means available were used for
obstructing the channs,s.
THE best service that could be rem
dered to France by the regiment Of en-
gineers now being organized in the
United States," said NJ. Claveille, would
be to bring over here as soon as con-
venient tools and equipment necessary
to repair those railroads, canals and
bridges. They should bring not oDly
the required tools. now unobtainable
here. but also laborers familiar with
productive efforts. The equipment in
tools should be three-fold the normal

Skilled Workmen Needed.

THE American engineers may be of
immense service to US in this work as
we'll as in rebuilding the railroads. I
want to point out in this connection
that in view Of the present situation all
units of engineers formed in the United
States should be autonomous and COM
plete in order to be of maximum utility;
that is, they should bring the necessary
hand labor. Only inefficient and un-
skilled workmen are available here
now. Above all, quick workers are
needed.
IF America could send US a coal-min-
ing contingent in addition to the en-
gineering corps for railroad and canal
work it would be a great boon to us. 1t
should be headed by men capable of di-
recting necessary repairs to mines and
or organizing intensified production, and
should comprise coal miners. who are
lacking here now. The great advantage
IN .s this would be & to release ,t, Tor trans rams
now bringing coal to France"
