ARTILLERY AND AIRPLANES
TO BE DECISIVE FACTORS
IN WINNING THE WAR
(By Associated Press.)

Central France, Sept. 30.-Artillery
and airplanes are going to be two OF
decisive factors In winning the war,
according to the military experts, and
here at this little interior town can
be seen what the ordnance branch OF
the American army has built up in
the last four months to keep up the
steady flow of artillery, arms, ANU
milton, machine guns, tanks, and all
the material of combat, toward the
fighting front.
It is one of the mammoth institu-
tions which has suddenly sprung up
with the coming of the Americans
and. since April last, 1t has spread
over an area of several miles, with
two enormous gunshops, two similar
shops for tanks and gun-tractors, two
more assembling and repairing artil-
lery Of all kinds, another for machine
guns, rifles and small arms, with huge
foundries and forges for the casting
Along with these are going up four
great warehouses for housing all
kind of ordnance material.
The big government arsenal at
Rock Island, Mo, is the only thing
of the kind that compares in extent
with this plant, and yet 1t is 80 per
cent completed after four months Of
existence.
There are two stages in the steady
up-keep of the cannon and all kinds
of weapons going forward to the
fighting lines. The first stage is In
the zone of the advance, along with
the army, where number of ord
nance shops are operated to meet
immediate requirements in the field
to remount crippled cannon and tc
get the guns back into use with the
least possible delay. The shops
move forward with the troops, witt
machinery, tools, and all the stoci
and parts to do quick work.
The larger stage of work, which il
not done in the face of the fighting
comes back here to the big shop
equipped to do all kinds of EXTENSIVE
yordnance work. such as the reboring

Storm On West
Coast Does Great
Property Damage;
3 Children Killed

Three children killed and four per-
sons more or less severely injured,
the orange crop around Clearwater,
Dunedin, Tarpon Springs and Largo
almost practically stripped from the
trees; giant oaks and hundreds OF
pine trees blocking traffic for miles,
telephone, telegraph and electric light
wires down, and many houses blown
from their foundations and others un-
rooted, was the toll of terrific storm
which swept the West Coast section
early Saturday morning. No tele-
graph connection has yet been estab-
lished with Clearwater, but one tele-
phone line has been secured, but re-
ports state that 1t will be weeks be-
fore that city will again be served
with telephone or electric light serv-
ice, the damage to the wires and the
plants being so heavy. The wind at
tanned a velocity of 100 miles, 1t is
said, and houses at Indian Rocks,
Haven Beach and Clearwater Beach
were unroofed and the bath house at
Indian Rocks completely blown away.
The three children of Mr.. Garrett
son, of Hog Island, were drowned.
When their house was blown over
they tried to accompany their father
to the boat landing, and were swept
away In the waves, which covered the
island for a depth of six feet In
places. Their mother was severely
injured by flying timber, and saved
her life only by clinging to the top
limbs of a mango tree.
The greatest property damage was
to orange groves, those in the neigh
borhood of Clearwater, Largo and
Sutherland, losing, in many cases,
their entire crops.
Mr.. ]. ]. Haldeman, Of this city,
was at Brooksville during the storm.

damage to Florida Natal Hay Farms

out of the garage for distance of 25
or 30 feet, but was not otherwise
