To Spend Fifty Millions
For Workers Homes

of the work in building a single house,
as anyone who has paid the bills will
know, consists in saving, cutting, and
fitting the material.
Everything Cut to Fit.
With standardization of every DOS
sible item. most OF this cutting and
fitting will be done in factories and
the material shipped ready to be put
together by carpenters and plumbers.
Second, the cost of housing an indi-
vidual was reduced to a most reason
able figure. 1t is still too early to
give totals in dollars and cents, but
present estimates indicate that the in
= sstment In these community homes
for single workers will not exceed $3.50
per man this including living quarters,
baths, community lounges for each
club of % men. kitchen and mess-hall
facilities, heating and Hghting-every-
thing. If all the housing approprla-
ton for shipwOrkers were spent on
these community dwellings homes
would be provided for about $4,000
men, or nearly one-third the whole
emergency shipbuIlding army.
But many of the new shipworkers
will be married men with families, and
for them separate dwellings are being
built. Something like 90 types of five.

CAMOUFLAGE WAS PUZZLE TO HUNS

painted to represent tree that stood
between the French and German front
lines in the Champagne region.
The French had been operating at
decided disadvantage, as the Ger.
mans held the high ground from which
they could carry out their Observa-
tons at ease. The commandant no
tlced the tree that had been swept
clean of its branches and foliage
through shell and machine gun fire.
At night he called in his camoufiage
squad and confided plan to them.
A week later squad of sappers
crept out on dark night and dug
ditch on the French side of the
tree. The trunk was attacked from
beneath the ground by saws that had
been literally dosed with oil and cut
away. Long. steel-tipped peevies such
as the Main iumbermen carry, ease1
1t to the ground, where It fell into the
ditch.
The armor-plated shell was set up
climbed up inside Of it. The next
morning the only thing the Germans
could see was the old familiar land
scape with the battle-scarred tree.
Puzzled the Huns.
Pieces of shrapnel might whistle by.
Machine gun bullets might rain on
the trunk as before. Only a direct
hit from shell of larger caliber
could demolish 1t and there was no
reason for changing the range of the
guns to demolish a trunk that stood
in No Mans Land and 300 feet from
the French lines. Chance alone would
destroy the post.
From their telephones In the OBJ
servatory the French scouts reported
all going on behind the German lines,
regulated the fire of their big guns
and told what effect the shells had.
The puzzled Huns suddenly found six
inchers exploding in their depots.
Their communicating trenches were
peppered with an accuracy that could
only come from directed fire, but the
innocent-appearing trunk was not sus-
pected until one night patrol investi-
gated II. Next day shells burst all
around It until one finally toppled It
over, but the trunk had served its pur-
pose. and camouflage had turned
valuable trick for its originators.

sx ARTHUR w. DUNN.

Washington Ever since the Over
man bin was introduced, that bill
which gives the president greater pow
er and authorizes him to re0rganize
the various executive departments so
as 10 facilitate war measures. there
has been much talk Of opposition. Con
ferences have been held at the White
House and senator's and representa-
tives have wrangled over the measure
in committee. On account Of this kind
of talk 1t was assumed that great
deal of opposition had arisen and that
this bill might fail.
Senator Overnan, however. scouts
the idea Of there being any difficulty
whatever in putting the bill through.
He says that Ii Is n war measure;
that there is one strong prevailing Idea
In Ibis country, that is. to beat the Ger
mans; that the president as command
or in chief must have all the power
he needs to carry On the war and If
the legislation provided for In the Over
man bin Is deemed necessary by the
president. why that legislation is going
TO be passed.
The North Carolina senator Is right
Legislation which the president says
Is necessary TO carry on the war. and
which he insists must be enacted. will
be passed even II certain senators and
representatives have scruples as to It's
constiIutionalIty.

studied and reduced to standards In
the same way. Everything is calcu-
lated for quick, economical, durable
construction. Each separate dwelling
will have its bathroom, heating, light
ing, and kitchen equipment. More
over, great pains have been taken to
avoid any appearances of Standardized
ton or monotony in exterior design
Only the materials and inside APP
pointments have been reduced to
standards while exterior lines and or
nament may be modified according to
local conditions to secure individuality
and beauty. That is not ali.
The plans have been drawn for these
individual family cottages with the
idea of permanence. In so far as pos
sible, they will be erected at shipyard
sites which are fairly certain to be per-
manent Single men are free to move
to temporary employment for the war
and dispense If shipyards are abaD-
doned when peace comes. Married
men with families cannot do this, of
course, so they will be assigned to the
permanent yards as fast as possible
with the expectation that they may
live there for years.
The plans take into account not only
the provision of homes for them when
they are shifted into shipbuilding to
meet the war emergency, but the pur-
chase Of their own homes on INSTALL
ment payments equivalent to rent If
they feel that the new locality is
suitable one In which to work and live.
and bring up family.
Present estimates indicate that the
family houses can be erected for con-
siderably less than $4,000 each. This
does not include the cost of land. nor
has that been figured in the building
of community houses for single men.
The major part of this great build
ing program will have been completed
by the LIST of July. Some idea of its
magnitude may be given by compari-
son with other building operations. On
a peace time basis an equal invest
ment would build FIVE Woolworth
buildings or two Equitable buildings.
tlCaiiHA tOt MI
Naturally, the magnitude of build
ing program like that and the prompt
ness with which it must be carried
out appeals to the imagination not only
OF the shipyard workers who are to
live in these dwellings and the Ameri-
can citizens who are interested in
them as part of our war program, but
TO many persons who wish to assist
with advice, plans. inventions. and
special schemes and devices for speed
ing up the job. To the offices where
this program is being carefully laid
out have come in the past few weeks
men with all sorts of proposals for
the building of houses and dormitories
In record time, and of many kinds OF
emergency materials and construction.
Those having the project in hand have
given a hearing to all corners, and
moreover, gone afield themselves to in
vestigate promising new methods. In
the end, however, as the outcome or
careful investigation and plans, these
shipyard dwellings will be erected
pretty much on standard lines of tried
and proven materials with all elements
Of speed and economy conferred in
Standardization of materials and large
scale building by well-equipped con-
tractors with capable organizations.

Secretary Lane of the interior de-
partment never neglects an opportu-
nifty to boost Alaska. One might think
that Alaska was his pet province, judg-
ing from all that he says about 1t from
time to time In n recent statement
he pointed out that Alaska's response to
the call to the colors twas character
istically snappy, big and effective. The
wireless message which told the pio-
neers of the far North that their coun-
try had joined in the world war against
kalserism at once started men and
money to the front"
With that statement as a starter the
secretary goes on to tell OF the won
derful productiveness Of Alaska and
what IL is doing now to help carry on

aris.-"Camouhage" that has come
to be one Of the sciences of modern
warfare, was originated at Toul,
France. during the early days of Au-
gust, 1914.
A painter. Guidand de Scevola. at
tached to a battery near the Lorraine
city as an ordinary artilleryman.
soon found his battery was land
mark and open target for the German
gunners. One night, with comrade,
he constructed some papier mache
rocks and painted them with a dash
of green, representing herbs and To-
llage, and they were installed over the
battery.
The peppering of their battery
ceased from that day. The painters
ruse was reported to General Castel-
nau. In command OF the sector, who
passed the word along to M. Rene
Viviani, then minister of war. The
war minister Immediately ordered the
creation of a special section of the

"Camouflage" spread until today the
section has over 1000 men, artists.

fetal figures show that camoufiaged
batteries have operated in COMPARE
tive safety, only four per cent of their
number having been put out of ac-
ton by direct fire as opposed to so per
cent of batteries where the guns had
not been painted or otherwise COT
ceaied.
One of the most notable works OF
the "camoufleurs" was the erection of
a hollow. armor-plated wooden struc-
ture 300 feet from the German lines.

ment was made by Il Kansas man that
Arthur Capper, now governor e Kan

opportunity to go to their home DIS
tricts and look after their elections.

For several years United States
army officers have been clamoring for
horses. and efforts have been msde
from time to time to secure or prOdde
for a supply. Congress did not heed
this demand. however, and the people
themselves did not undertake to che
ate a supply Of horses because the de-
mand was not kept up.
Men from the horse breeding regions
have told committees of congress that
