Since then many de signs have been carefully worked out by Major Dean, formerly curator of the department of armor who went to France to study needs last autumn and since then has been directing the adaptation of the models in accord ance with suggestions made by Gen Pershing
 Twenty-Five types of armor have been made. so far. in the various fac tories. in lots varying from 100 tc many thousand pieces. These armor defenses include arm and leg guards which are considered most important in view of the fact that hospital stat

Within two years there will be 25,, OOO0OO tons of merchant shipping to be employed. and Edward N Hurley. chairman of the United States ship ping board. announces that it is not too early 10 look around for Cargocs. not only in this country but abroad.
 Twenty-Five million tons is lot of shipping" says MT. Hurley In one voyage these ships would carry all the live stock dressed meat. pack, ing-house products. poultry, game fish. wool. hides. and leather carried on your railroads in onc year. In less than five trips they would carry our whole railroad haul ol grain. llOur. cotton hay frI;t, vegetables. and oth- CT farm prpdI.ts. In three and a half trips all our humber, in seven trips all our manufactured goods; in sixteen trip, all our coal and coke The total tonnage ha' led on our railroads is about l-oN 10000 tons.
 So, am. III this splendid effort in Hl''''L' -tl"n | I'llltHN iO " III tue War, the Amer manufacturer must be asked to |. thought for tomorrow and think ih terms Of shipping and foreign trade. This might appear like distraction now. something which will take the attention from the su- premc duty of winning the war But far from being a distraction, it fits in with war production and war pSychol- ogy. While our factories and factory employees are building war material today. thcy are also building foreign trade. Il we can only see things as a whole and make one factor worK with another.
 When the business man turns his attention to export trade he looks abroad and thinks of his foreign GUS toner. Rut foreign trade actually be- gins in his own factory. He looks abroad and studies such factors as ocean freiEhts. foreign exchange, ex- port packing and foreign salesman ship.
 "lf h" would look into his own fac tory first, and study factors close at hand, such as labor turnover. wages. manufacturing costs, and efficiency. he would be laying d solid foundation for export trade"

MAKING ARMOR FOR MODERN
 WARFARE

Perhaps the stranSost workshop in tLe United States is situated in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. New York city, where are being produced nom iicccs of ancient armor models to be adopted and copcd for the use of soldiers of the United States army. \ famous French artisan is in charge of the shop. which has been turned over to the ordnance branch of the army.
 Helmets. shields and hreastplates will be made for our soldiers, inas- much as the war in Europe has brought back into use many discarded weapons and practices of medieval times. Hand-to-hand fighting has caused the adoption of heavy breast plates by the Germans and lighter breastplates by the English, while ar mored waistcoats are worn by the Italians. All the armies employ steel helmets and trench shields.
 Fortunately the Metropolitan Mu- scum possesses one of the greatest collections of armor in the world. The "orlnFoN vas established for ;hc pur- pose CT cleaning. repairing and restor ing the precious pieces assembled with great care from all parts of the world II happened that included in the col lection were ninety kinds of anvils and stakes" several hundred ham mers of different types, and curlous shears and other instruments.

James A. Muney for the good training
of this large number Of singers.
The soloists were all that could be de-
sired and bid fair to make their marks
in the musical world.
The orchestra also showed thorough
training for this entertainment under
the direction of Professor Elgar.
The National Security League is q
thoroughly patriotic organization, and
has given about all the large'mectings
that have been held in Chicago during
the past eighteen months, and I am sure
that the last one, in its own peculiar
style, was as great q success as any.
Meetings of this kind are always
beneficial, both to the participants and
listeners, and, If were to give any ad-
vice, I would strongly urge that the
chorus be retained and have regular re-
hearsals, and am sure their services
will be very much appreciated in other
parts of Chicago, as well as other COM
munities.

American answered present, at the same
time standing on his feet and with all
eyes riveted upon him he very elO-
quently delivered the following short
grafton on "The Negro Soldiers"
Mr.. Sulzer said:
"Mr. Speaker: We have no Drawer
soldiers in the Republic than the Negro
troops. I am in favor of doing justice
to those Negro soldiers. They are en-
titled to it. They never have had a
square deal in or out Of court.
"The innocent should not be pun
ished for the guilty. I voted in favor
of this bill in the committee on military
affairs, and I shall vote to pass it
through the House. It ia honest and it
is Just.
"n yin do justice to the innocent
men. II we fail to do justice in this
ease, we will be false to ourselves, and
false to every principle that we revere.
II we refuse to do justice to the COlOrsd
soldiers who are innocent, we will viO-
late every tenet Of our boosted love Of
fair play. In my opinion, if this bill
becomes q law, no guilty man will be
able to re-enlist in the army, and no in
nocent man should be prevented from
doing SO.
"I have no race prejudice. I want
to say that I am now, always have been,
and I trust always shall be, in favor OF
Justice to all men-here and everywhere
throughout the world-without regard
to race or to creed. For justice all sea-
sons summer, and all places g temple.

Ths Following Communicates Repro
duced from the New York Sun
Deeds Of the Negro Regiment

To the Editor Of the Evening Sun
Sir: As q Negro citizen and Taxpayer
I feel proud of what the New York
Negro Regiment is doing for freedom
on the bloody fields of France
When I appeared before Gov. William
Sulzer and asked him to sign the bin for
this Negro Regiment I told him that in
ease Of war our Negro soldiers would
do their duty-ana could fight just as
wen and Just as hard. and just As brave
" rs their White brothers,
Fer many years the Negro taxpayers
of New York urged legislation for this
Negro Regiment, only to have COVER
nors and legislators shat the doors Of
justice and opportunity in their faces
An honor to Gov. sulzer, who had the
courage in the face of tremendous OPP
position to sign the. bill All honor to
the brave legislators of 1918, who had
the courage to vote for it; and all honor
to our Negro soldiers of New York, who
are fighting bravely for our cause
Henry W. Knox,
New York, June IL, 1918.
Il win be recalled that at the time
that Governor sulzer. urged the legis-
lature Of New York to pass the bill or
measure creating a Colored Regiment
in that state that he was severely con-
demned and bitterly reprimanded by
the White military officers Of the En-
pire State and by a majority Of the daily
for his rash act and i'll con-
sidered conduct in that respect and the
small weekly newspaper like The Broad
Az, encouraged him and urged him to
stand firm, for the right and today, be
it said to the everlasting honor Of Gov
ernor sulzer, the ColOred soldiers of
New York, which became a part of the
National Guard Of that state, were the
first American soldiers to hold Old Glory
aloft on the French battle feld and as
long IS there is one COlored person Hv-
ing in the United States he should high
" honor Governor Sulzer for making it
possible for the COlOred soldiers of New
York to accomplish that glorious feat.
In this connection we reproduce the
speech Of Governor sulzer delivered in
the House Of Representatives,, February
9th, 1909, on the Negro soldiers which
amply proves that he is true blue and
