u. S. PROFITS BY
ALLIES'MISTAKES

great task Of mobillzing and distribut-
Ing labor. Something of the kind was
absolutely necessary, for without uni
fed arrangements for obtaining the
help needed for war production indus
trial life in America would have been
chaotic.
The experience of European coun-
tries had illustrated how essential is
perfect organization and coordination
of labor power toward successful pros
ecution OF war which places practi-
cally whole nations in arms. In the wars
OF the past, industrial life at home
went on without any considerable in
terruption; the armies in the field were
ordinarily not so large that they could
not live on the country If they were
forced to do SO.
With the summonlng of millions Of
men to the colors by all the belligerent
nations, however, the world war of
1914 quickly took ON quite different
aspect. The withdrawal of all these
men from industry proved a tremen-
dous shock to the economic life of ev-
cry nation.
Germany probably was the best pre-
pared for the great change, for the
possibility Of summonlng most of the
man power of the nation into warfare
had been considered more thoroughly
than elsewhere.
France and England, 1t soon became
apparent, had made serious mistakes.
In France large numbers Of skilled mu-
milton workers were called into the
army, and they suffered tremendous
losses when the Germans overran Bel
GUM and northern France. Munitions
output slowed up, and only by the
most heroic exertlons were the French
finally able to turn back the enemy at
the Marne. Eventually the skilled ma
chlnists were called back into the fac
tories, where they could be of much
better service than even in the first
line trenches.
England had similar experiences. In
the patriotic zeal of thousands to en-.
list, for the voluntary system was re-
tained in England for about three
years, little attention was paid to the
retention on essential Jobs of men
whose places hardly could be filled.
America was able to profit by these
mistakes of the allies. and from the
start organized a war program on the
basis of highest ernciency.

TAKE UP PIECE WORK

London.-England has her plans all
laid for the great Industrial change
over.
There are about 5000 large concerns
which have been engaged In munitions
work.
These factories have been prepar-
ing for months for the quick change"
and are ready to switch to peace-time
operations Immediately.
Munitions Is by no means the only
branch of industry where sharp read
iustments will be necessary. But the
same statement of preparedness holds
true generally.
The ministry Of reconstruction,
which has been operating for more
than year. and which has made an
extensive survey Of the industrial
problem, has aided manufacturers
who have been engaged on war work
In the preparations for the advent Of
neace. And 1t has worked out plans
for converting many government-op-
Grated plants into production of ma

Simple Folk Of IsIay Sacrifice Them

London.-So rapidly are events fall
ing one after the other that the Otran-
to disaster may be considered an old
story. Yet there is very great deal
which has not yet been told about
how splendidly the Irish people be-
haved In succoring survivors and how
nobly the simple folk of Islay sacri-
feed themselves in rescuing and CIV
ing aid to the shipwrecked soldiers
who were cast, many of them uncon-
scious, upon the wild Scottish shore.
And the story, too, Of the swift and
successful aid furnished by the Amer
lean Red Cross is one Of which the
whole United States can be proud.
When the survivors landed at Bel
fast only ~ hours after they had been
taken off the disabled Otranto by
daring British destroyer, they were in
pitiful plight They had been cling
Ing to the deck Of the destroyer with
heavy seas constantly breaking over
them, and with a cold wind chilling
them to the bone. To save themselves

to give notice Of her coming Conse-
quently no provision had been made

Consul Aids Men.
Meantime the American consul had
been notified of the mems arrival. He
Immediately got in touch with Red
Cross headquarters Mt Belfast. AL
though 1t was Sunday night and long
past nine o'clock the Red Cross was
ready for the emergency. The emer-
gency warehouse, prepared and
stocked six months before In prepare
ton for just such disaster, was

terials which will be sorely needed.
To show how extensively the minis
try has worked, 20 subcommittee of
experts have completely surveyed as
many parts Of the nelghboring field
and have drawn up plans for the
change over, which have been placed
at the disposal Of the Industrial chiefs.
Rehabilitation plans have been
given careful study, and, while the of.
fetal report has not yet been issued,
IT Is known that 1t provides for dis
banding by the needs of different
trades, and not by military units. Men
with large families will also be re.
leased early.
The ministry of reconstruction has
dwelt particularly on the possibility
of development of Industries making
articles formerly imported from Ger
many-such as electrical apparatus,
hardware, stamped metal and tele-
phone apparatus.
And II is fatty stated that Britain
is going to make lot more Of these
things for herself after the war;"

opened at once, and flying squad

plies of clothing, indictments and COM
forts, which were rushed Off immedl-
ately to the barracks where the men
were being sheltered.
Hunter Sharp, consul, had gone to
the barracks as soon as he had learned
that the Red Cross machinery was In
operation. He appeared before the
men, introduced himself as the Amer
lean consul and cheered them with the
information that the Red Cross was
on the job and soon would be there
with all the necessary equipment
The discussion all around the big
bare room had begun to center COM
pletely on the question Of food when
the first Red Cross car, honking cheer
fully, rumbled into the cobbled drive
way of the barracks. The door opened
and a cheerful voice called out, ANY

There was q rush to the doorway

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. success in
the world war has been made possible
as much by workmen at home as by
soldiers In France.
America was confronted by ire
mendous task when the conflict with
Germany became inevitable. The sup
plies the allies had required In the
years since 1914 had necessitated con-
siderable reimbursement Of labor and
commerce in the United States, but
with actual participation in the con-
fict much greater changes had to be
made. The work Of American laborers
in producing food, munitions and cloth
ing enough for their own countrymen
and the allies as we'll is one OF the
greatest performances of the war, or,
indeed, in history of all time. 1t has
been made possible largely by careful
organization of the nations man power
in order that every ounce Of strength
could be employed to best advantage.
The United States employment serv-
ice last June was intrusted with the

that spoke with all sorts Of American
accents from pure "BostoneSe" to the
hearty tones of the Pacific coast.
Meanwhile came the news that ether
survivors and many bodies were like
ly to be found on the coast Of Islay.
Off the Scotch coast, where the Otran-
to had perished or the rocks. 1t was
known that the Red Cross organization
In Scotland was trying to reach 1slay,
but 1t was doubted whether, owing to
the terrific storm, travel by the usual
routes was possible. So the Red Cross
organization In Belfast decided to send
an expedition on the perilous trip from
Ireland to Islay. A party of eight,
including two physicians, and carry
ing large outfits of clothing and
quantities of medical and other sup
plies, made the voyage on small YES
sci furnished by the British navy.
Here, in Islay, 1t was found that the
greatest loss of life had occurred, for
the Otranto had gone on the rocks
close to the scene of the Tuscania dis
aster.
OF her $50 passengers 20 men,
including II American soldiers and
three members Of the crew, were
the only survivors. These twenty,
more dead than alive, were washed I'M
conscious on the rocks, bleak and des-
olate spot, and were taken care Of by
a handful of cottagers who live on this
barren shore at little hamlet known
as Kilchoman, which consists Of only
three houses, church and school
house.
