Refugees Marched
Of Under Guard

The hour was carefully chosen
a. the one when there were the least
possible people in the streets; the
evening crowds would have gone
home and the early market crowd
would hardly have arrived.
A heavy guard was thrown
around the people as they came out
OF the building and they were
marched quickly and quietly down
back streets 70 the Care du Nord.
l never saw such a body Of people
handled 50 quickly and yet without
confusion. In the station four
trains were drawn up side by side;
a. the stream Of people began pour
ing into the station, it was directed
70 the first platform and the train
was filed in a few minutes. AT
just the right moment the stream
was detected TO the next platform,
and so on until all four trains were
filed.
After starting the crowd into the
s.ation and seeing that there was
going 70 be no trouble, / set off with

some Of the converts. They had
rot waited for US, but were already
moving, 50 that when we got back
20 the station they tackled onto the
end Of the first party and kept the
stream flowing.
As fast as the trains were filled,
the signal was given and they pulled
out silently. / stood behind some

LUSITANIA SINKING SHOWN
Press Club Sees First Filming of An.
imated Reproduction of Horror

Members of the National Press CIub
witnessed last night the first presenta-
ton of animated drawings of the sink
ing of the Lusitania, the work of Win
sor McCay, the artist and the creator
of the art of animated drawing. The
production was the result of twenty
two months of labor which required the
drawing of $4,000 pictures The task
was completed last Saturday and the
artist himself saw the result of his ef-
forts depicted upon the screen for the
first time.
1t was wonderful piece of work. the
awful tragedy OF the scenes holding the
audience spellbound. The impact Of the
torpedo, the explosion which followed
and the settling of the great ship into
the sea We're vividly portrayed. AS the
snip sank by the bow. with stern high
in air, the passengers were shown lean
ing into the sea, and later women and
children frantically struggling in the
water and disappearing beneath the
waves. few bubbles marking the spot
where they went down.

Federal Control of Coal
Industry Being Considered
in Plans to Supply France

Means for transporting American
coal 10 France, and thus releasing for
other service ships used to carry it
from England. is one of the most press
ing problems laid before American gov
ernment officials by members of the
French and British commissions here
This question has caused the coun-
ell of national defense to consider es-
tablishing more direct government con-
troll over the coal industry and the sub
Ject is being Investigated by F. S. Pea
body of Chicago for the council.
France has large contracts for supplies
in the United States which cannot be
transported across the ocean because OF
the lack of shipping and railroad facilities
The suggestion has been made that the
American government so control trans
portation in this country that goods ur-
gently needed by the entente allies can be
transported to the Atlantic seaboard more
promptly.
sharp coal shortage exists in
France, and larger supplies are needed
to keep munitions plants and other fac
torres going. Coal prices in England
have rissn to such height. the French
representatives say, that it would be
more of its coal from the United States.
AS a result of the representations
made by members of the French COM
mission, the problem. connected as 1t is
with the shipping question, has come to
be considered as of primary importance
by the American government and indi-
cations today were that plans for its
solution will be evolved by the council
OF national defense in the near future.

Washington Ideal Example.

Washington was presented as an ideal
example of how women in various walks
of life are bending their efforts in many
ways to provide comforts and care not
only for fighting men, but also for their
families at home.
AS a visual illustration of this Miss
Boardman introduced a delegation OF
young women from the District Chap
ter in distinctive uniforms. These rep
resented the various phases of work or
ganized into corps and divisions under
the woman's volunteer aid, of which
Mrs Woodrow Wilson is honorary chair
man and Miss Boardman is actively in
charge.
This Washington delegation demon
strated to representatives from other
large chapters the way it is hoped to
have woman's part in Red Cross work
organized throughout all states.
Among out-of-town women who were
leaders in the conference are: Mrs.
George Wharton Pepper. Philadelphia:
Mrs. William X Draper, New York;

More Than Roads Can Handle.

There will be more war time rail bus-
ness than the lines can handle The coun-
try's systems are hauling more freight
than ever before. but they cannot carry
all that is in sight and it will be neces-
sary for the general railroad board to de-
eide which classes of freight shall have
preference. Already the board has said
coal must go first and we are filling the
country's coal yards for next winter
That is the next most important COM
modify that remains to be decided. The
Agriculture Department asked that
seeds and agricultural implements be
moved and they, too, are being given
preference.
Il shall give you an instance of what
we have accomplished in economy of
transportation. Heretofore the railway
lines have taken coal from the east to
the Pacific coast in steel cars and re-
turned the cars empty. The railroad
board had shippers put their coal in
box cars. and these cars are now being
returned loaded with freight 1t
caused some inconvenience in unloading,
but everybody concerned patrioticalIy
agreed to accept the change.
we are now rushing coal from the
central fields to the northwest by way
Of the great lakes. and all other
freight goes behind the coal. 1 can say
believe this means there will be no
coal shortage in that region"
