lowing letter from Thomas w Page,
chairman, cotton committee, of the
war industries board, pertaining to
present conditions in regard to cot
ton:
1T is my understanding that the
quantity Of extra staple cotton used
in the manufacture Of automobile
tires has been greatly reduced, on ac-
count of the fact that factories en-
gagged in making tire fabrics have
been largely diverted to the manu-
facture Of goods for the army and
that this condition is chiefly respon-
sible for the slowing UP of the de-
mand for extra staple cotton. l am
advised by the committee on cotton
distribution that this committee has
just completed a thorough investi-
cation of the entire situation as to
the prospective supplies and con-
sumption of extra staple cotton in
this country, and that as a result of
their findings, a recommendation has
been made to the war trade board
that no further supplies of old world
country until changed conditions may
require additional stock.
"Of course I am unable to say what
conclusion the cotton committee will
finally reach with reference to the
policy of fixing price for cotton,
and I have made the above statements
so that you may know that. price
fixing aside, steps are being taken
to provide a market for extra staple
cotton"

MILLIONS IN STEEL
is HURLED 1t Hum;
NEVER NAIL WASTED
BY EDWARD Nj. THIERRY
On. f. A. Staff Correspopdent)


a French Port, Nov 3.-American
soldiers hurl millions of dollars worth
of steel shells and high explosives at
the Germans with a holy JOY and nary
a qualm at the cost.
But you couldn't hire an American
soldier to throw away an old board
or bent nail
That is the sort of economy, multi
piled to the nth power. that the army
has taught the men Of the United
States in France.
Here at this port I have just seen a
substantially built warm, comforta
Bile barracks building and a mess hall
built entirely of lumber and nails sal
vaged from packing cases in which
locomotives and automobile trucks
We're shipped from the states.
The building is L-shaped, $50 feet
long and "a feet wide, two stories high
and q structure the most fastidious
architect wouldn't be ashamed of CALI
ing his handiwork
1t was built by a battalion Of SOL
diers under the direction of Sergeant
Senior Grade) j. \. Macarthur of Oak

Of on architects or a construction en-
gineer's Office. They built it in spare
hours, too. after their regular work

bly, shop nearby was completed.
Everything on Concrete.
The barracks houses 200 men and
the mess hall seats as many. At one
end Of the mess hall is the kitchen.
which has concrete floor, a concrete
sink, a range with concrete base, a
concrete serving table and a concrete
and straw-lined refrigerator. In the
IL l. IA fIan ri
shower bath and lavatory.
And the only thing used in the con-
struction or equipment of the entire
building that cost real money-that
hadn't been salvaged-was the ce-
ment necessary for the concrete. Ser
Geant Macarthur blushed guiltily when
he admitted that distressing fact.
Even the kitchen range. built into its
concrete base, was rebuilt from SAL
vaged parts Of scrapped ranges OBJ
tanned at the salvage yard nearby. Al
so the pipe for the plumbing. the pans
and the kettles and other utensils ann
mess hall and kitchen equipment. And
the tables and benches and hunks, like
the building itself. We're built of the
vrnoi and the nails that came in the
discarded packing cases.
Biz Dutch Oven Built.
Out in the yard big Dutch oven"
has been built, for McArthurs enter
prising and economical company draws
flour rations instead of bread and bakes
its own bread. In the bathouse sec
ton of the barracks hot water heater
(salvaged, of course) has been Install
ed.
Even a patent fly trap has been con-
structed in the kitchen. Sergeant Nc
Arthur early discovered that the French
fly, bigger and more pestiferous than
the American fly, has different habits:
it won't walk into the average trap or
tangIe it's feet in sticky paper.
So an overlapped aperture was left
at the apex Of the kitchen roof. with
a cleverly constructed curling screen,
which lures the fly out but won't let
him back in. And the Macarthur In
patented Fly Eradicator works like a
charm.
