TN NNENSE WORK
OF AMERICANS
BEHIND Lines ON
FRONT.
(By Associated Press.)


American Headquarters in France
Tuesday, Nov. ia part of Amerf-
cas- military effort in France at the
time the armistice was declared is
shown by statistics which the Asso-
ciated Press is now permitted to
make public.
On November II, the United States
had in France 1891 officers and L.
-8Sf.376 men.
Man power alone, however, was
but one factor. Behind it lay vast
machinery which was required in
operations, Railways and motor
roads were constructed and across
the sea were brought locomotives.
cars, rails and motor transport of
every kind.
Great Railroad Work.
Behind this again was the requisite
food, clothing and general supplies
for the men as well as dockage and
warehouse construction. Every eff
fort OF civil life, plus the require
ments of war were eXerted. The
American army has in operation 967
standard guage locomotives and 49,
174 standard guage freight cars Of
American manufacture. In addi-
tion it has in service $50 locomotives
and 973 cars of foreign origin. Eight
hundred and forty three miles of
standard guage railway were con-
stfucted. Five hundred miles of this
have been built since June /. One
hundred and fifteen miles of road and
40 miles of German light railways
were repaired and put in operation.
Two hundred and twenty-five miles
OF French railway were operated by
the Americans
There were in operation November
il more than $4,000 motor vehicles
of all descriptions.
Vast Food Supplies.
The Associated Press is allowed to
give approximate figures showing
what has been accomplished in the
accumulation Of food supplies.
In army terms, one ration repres-
ents the quantity of each article
each man is entitled to daily. The
Americans have 800, 100000 rations of
beans alone $4,000, 600 rations OF
-four and flour substitutes; 267, ,000,-
600 rations OF milk; 161, 100000 ra-
tons of butter or substitutes; 49,
100000 rations of sugar; $4,000, 900
rations Of meat; b7,000,00O rations of
coffee and 11S,000, 900 rations of rice,
hominy and other foods. While for
smokers there are T61 100000 rations
OF cigarets and tobacco in other
forms.
II Horne Economics Did II.
Army authorities point out that
these vast supplies for the army rep-
resent food economies on the part of
the people at home.
In the construction and improve
ment Of dockage and warehouses, ten
steamer lhertl1s have been built at
Bordeaux having total length Of
400 feet. AT Monitor, near st.
Nazaire, eight berths are under con-
struction with a total length of over
1900 feet, These, however, do not
indicate the magnitude of the effort
of the engineer corps.

Don't let them remain idle slGckers.
Owing to their inability to purchase
sufficient logs the sawmills have not
yet been able to supply the present re-
quirements of the government and its
allies, and as our participation in the
actual hostilities is increasing rapidly
our requirements in this wood are
monthly growing heavier. Every tree
counts. Half dozen will provide lum-
Der to build a propeller blade and put
a gun stock into the hand of each man

connected with the fan is lowered over
the cloverheads and the current of air
lifts the seeds out and deposits them
into a suitable receptacle. The ma.

Fitted With Sound Receivers,

To detect the approach of airplanes
the searChlight apparatus Is furnished
with sound receivers. Without these
receivers the outfit is practically use
less. The receiver can be swung
around to catch the sound vibrations,
and they are remarkably accurate in
discovering the position of the plane,
Usually it can be located within a few
degrees. The light is not turned on at
all until the airplane is practically 10.
Gated. Then it is suddenly flashed on
the craft. Once a bombing plane is
found it is hard for it to get away from
the ineXOrable pencil of light. Bomb
ing planes are not like battle planes !;
they must fly in comparatively
straight lines and are not free to
twist and turn so as to wriggle out
of range of the light.
The first thing an aviator does when
he finds himself in the spotlight is tC
rise. That is just what the operator OF
the SearChlight wants him to do. The
higher he goes the less accurate his
aim becomes and the smaller grows
the chance that he can hurl his bombs
at a desired point. Furthermore, he is
dazzled by the light and his sense OF
security is completely destroyed. Some
times he can be found out by one OF
the antiaircraft guns, or pursued by
one of our own airplanes. Even if the
searchlight crew does nothing more
than to frighten an airman and drive
him away it has performed defensive
act which may save quantities OF
stores and ammunition, to say Lothins
of lives.
