In keeping with the plan of develop ment of Red Cross work along the broad est lines, the personnel of the bureau of civilian relief at headquarters is be- ing rapidly increased. Professor G. P. Wychoff, formerly professor of socialagy, at Grinnell college, Grinnell, Iowa, has come into the division as assistant di- rector, and will have charge of all work relating to the training of home service workers in cooperation with universities and colleges throughout the division.
 Three field supervisors have been add ed to the staff, whose duties it will be to visit each one of the home service sections giving information and instruc- tions on home service work, stimulating interest in this most important Red Cross activity. Two of these supervisors have been started out in the field, one in Louisiana and one in Alabama, and just as soon as it is possible to cover the ter ritory, they will pay visit to each sec tion. Home service agents have been placed in each of the four camp cities, at Montgomery, Anniston, Hatties- home service agents representing the di- vision and the local chapter are prepared to assist the home service section in handling all cases coming under their attention.

BUREAU OF PRISONERS

If unlucky enough to get captured, send your first prison camp postal to the American Red Cross at Berne, Switz- erland."
 This is the advice which the war de- partment is having army officers give merl before they go to the front. By sending this postcard to the bureau of prisoners, the American Red Cross at Berne, the captured men set in motion the machinery so that their families will be notified promptly, and also en- ables the Red Cross to begin shipments of twenty pounds of food every week and clothing, tobacco, toilet articles and com fort and luxuries as needed.
 Awaiting arrival of such cards or oth- CT reliable evidence that an American is prisoner at a camp in Germany, the Red Cross has at Berne and other neutral country cities quantities of food and clothing which it holds as agent of army or navy for relief of captured men. The Red Cross also has supplies of it's own for care of captured civilians and comforts and luxuries which it fur nishes captured sailors or soldiers.
 The bureau of communications of the gulf division has instructed Red Cross chapters in Louisiana Mississippi, and Alabama how families of captured men car send mail, or learn details of their condition; how the wounded are being cared for, their condition and other de- tails. Mrs. C. M. Eustis is in charge of the gulf bureau of communications which operates under the civilian relief hurealI

 "Canteen service for troops in tram sit is strictly war relief, and in appro- priate amounts it is a perfectly proper expenditure from the war fund"

THOUSANDS STILL EMPLOYED IN THE

The government plans to com plete the two nitrate plants as rapidly as possible. and millions are being spent and thousands of men continue to be employed and will continue to be en1- ployed after the completion of the muni- ton plants. The war industries board had good and sufficient reason for hold. ing up the work on dam ?, as it is esti- mated that it would take from four to five years to complete the job, and at this time there is great scarcity of la bor. Those interested. however, look con. fidently to the future. because the en- gineering plans for this great develop-l ment have been made and the possi- bilities of this wonderful water power is appreciated as never before by the national government. @es
