GREAT WAR AID
 IS '. M. [. A.

Forced by the decision of President f Wilson and Secretary Baker to in- crease the nations military establish ment "to the limit" the Y, M. c. A. has doubled its machinery for re- ! cruiting workers in the camps of | America and overseas and has organ ized a committee to tour the south and present the appeal of the nation al war work council to men who are beyond the fighting age, with the op- pOrtunity for patriotic service in pro- viding recreation and keeping up the morale of the troops. The recruiters began their tour in Richmond, Va, on Wednesday, May 8. Hundreds of en- listments are expected as the result of the direct appeal. Local recruiting committees will continue the work started by the travellers.
 One of the most important features of the appeal to be made in the south is cable message received from France last week. Both President POincare and Premier Clemenceau," it read, emphasize in strongest terms the need of cooperation, and many of our American generals insist that our work must keep pace with our mili- tary expansion"
 The message, which was signed by Dr. John R Mott, secretary of the war council, adds:
 After close study of present re- quirements and careful forecast, I am convinced that we must have in each month from May to September, inclu- sive, seven hundred workers for the American troops in France and Eng land, fifty for the French army and ten for the Italian army. Making all lowances for expiring contracts and casualties will swell the total to con- siderably over eight hundred.
 "Of this total 14O should be women for American work, and five for French work. Because of the difficult ty of recruiting in July and August, recommend a double output in May and June"
 As the military forces of the nation increase, this stream of Y. M. c. A. workers must increase if the associa- tiOn is not to falter in the duties which have been intrusted to it by the gov ernment. There is need for hut sec retaries, athletic directors, automobile drivers and mechanics and numerous other workers. The committee which is being sent into the south included Douglis L. Elhman and A. G. Knebel, executive of the war personnel board; Franklin Kirkbridge and James A. Whitmore, members of the national war work council, only recently re- turned from France.

ORE TOO RICH

The men who send out industrial re- ports of the doings in different parts of the state of Arizona have little re- gard for the statements they make, especially in reporting values and pro- duction of ores. One of these reports makes the statement that two tons of silver ore shipped from the Fortuna had value of S95,OOO. Now, the For tuna is a gold property, and it is i'm probable that it shipped silver ore of any value, and it is more improbable that any ether mine shipped ore hay ing value of S17, 800 in silver, as that would indicate over 50 per cent silver.

MINE RESCUE CAR
 ID VISIT KINGMAN

WASHINGTON, D. C., May 15- Mine rescue car No. of the United States Bureau of Mines, in charge of R. c. Williams, assistant surgeon, and a crew of trained men, will reach Kingraan on May 2S. The car will be on exhibition every day from g a. m. to , p. m. until June 2, and free lec- lures will be given to miners on safe methods of mining, the use of safety lamps and rescue apparatus, and mine gases. On June 8, the car will go to Oatman, to remain until June 8, af- ter which date it will proceed to Grip pie Creek, Colo, to remain until June 15.
 This m;ne-rescue car is one of eight now in use hy the Bureau of Mines for training miners in first-aid and rescue methods and tke use of oxygen breathing apparatus. Each car has a crew that includes two experienced miners, a mining engineer in charge, and a mine surgeon, and is equipped with tho latest rescue and first-aid ap- paratus and supplies. At moments notice the car is ready to proceed to the scene of mine disaster, where the bureau men place themselves un- der the direction of the statd mining inspectors and mine officials to do everything possible to assist or save miners who may have been injured or entombed.
 The saving of human life and less ening the sufferings of injured miners are the central features of the bu- reau's work.
 Miners are shown how to use rescue apparatus, and how to take care of an injured conlrade. The lectures are it. lustrated by lantern slides and nov ing pictures which show good and bad methods of mining and how many ac- cidents are easily prevented. These lectures are given in the car when a suitable meeting place cannot be pro cured elsewhere, but lantern slides and moving pictures cannot be shown in the ear.
 Each car carries experimenting apparatus, a supply of oxygen in cyl finders, safety lamps, field telephone with 2000 feet of wire, an apparatus for reviving miners who have been gased, and the charts, splints, and bandages for demonstrating first-aid methods. Some of the training with rescue apparatus will be inside the mines, also in smoke or fumes, so that wearers will understand the value of the apparatus and how to use it. A miner wearing the apparatus can en- ter a mine immediately after an ex- plosion, and work in smoke and black damp fer two hours.
 Many thousand miners have been trained in the use of this rescue ap- paratus at the bureau of mines cars and stations. It is hoped that in the near future every miner in this coun- try will have a working knowledge of the apparatus, and that every mine will have equipment ready for use in case of emergency. Many miners have been saved after explosions by rescue parties wearing the apparatus Also, the apparatus has proved of great value in fighting mine fires.
 Free instruction and training in methods of first aid to the injured are also given by crews of the rescue cars and stations and this instruction is given either in connection with res cue apparatus training or entirely sep arate, hence is applicable not only to underground workers, but to all those employed in or around the mines and metallurgical establishments.
