FOREIGN BORN WERE LIBERAL
 BOND BUYERS

WASHINGTON. Sept. IA. - Ameri- cas foreign born opulaton-immi- grants within the last generation, and Germans particularly - poured out their savings for liberty bonds of the third loan more generously, in con sideration of their limited financial ability, than native citizens.
 This is indicated by Treasury re port estimating subscriptions of citi- zens of 3S foreign nationalities at $741 ,437,000, or nearly IS per cent of the s4176,00O, 900 total of the third loan.
 The number of bond buyers was estimated at 7061, ,000. or 4l per cent of the total l7,000,000 on the roll of subscribers. and the average subscrip tion among the foreign speaking popu- lation was calculated at Sl05. Ger mans made the biggest record of all nationalities.
 Subscriptions actually reported and tabulated by nationalities amounted to s407, 7,790,000, but 1t was estimated this sum represented only about 55 per cent of the total, much of which was included in the big stream of general subscriptions without desig. nation of the subscribers nationality.
 This record was cited by the Treas nry today in support of claims of enthusiastic patriotism apparent in the nations foreign born citizens dur ing past loan campaigns. In nearly every city and town having many re- cent immigrants. selling committees already have been formed in prepara- ton for the fourth loan campaign to open September 2S. This organiza' ton work Is supervised by section of the Treasury's loan bureau, direct ed by Hans Rieg. an American of Ger l man descent, who speaks more than q dozen languages

By an Officer in the Signal Corps
 Above is shown for the first time one of the ''interpreted'' photographic reproductions made by French avia- tors of part of the German front in France before the victorious assault on Peronne. It is an actual picture of a front about F miles long by s miles deep, upon which the general staff actually based its preparations against the Germans.
 This shows, as nothing else can show, the vital importance of aerial photography in war. Every battery, new or old, active or silent, is indi- cated; every convoy and train, with it's direction, number of cars, and hour of passing; every balloon or plane; every bombardment or barrage.. Noth- ing is secret from the eye above. A few minutes study of this map, just as it has come from France will reveal the new strategy of modern warfare and the fundamental revo- lution effected in it by the airplane. The picture mighthave been worked over to make it clearer, but it was thought best to leave it as used abroad.
 Let us begin with the heavy black lines in the left center. Those are, ot course, the German trenches. The arrows crossing them indicate the fir ing of artillery in the direction shown. Where the arrow originates in a circle it means that an old battery, located and known is at work. Where the arrow originates in a triangle it means that a newly placed battery is busy. Many signs without arrows will be noticed, but as they do not have arrows pointing from them, they are not active Often the number and size of guns is given, and the hour at which they are accustomed to operate.
 Many "convoi' or conveys will also be noted with an arrow pointing Ill the direction of their travel, and the number of "voitures" or carriages as well as the hour of passing at that particular place. Similarly on the railroads, trains with so many "W' or cars will be seen. In the right-hand lower corner are three balloons pro- tected by nine airplanes. A little farther up, almost on the margin is an airdrome with "4 hangars, , or tents. and ' aviators."
 In the opposite upper left-hand cor ner is a curious wavelike line which shows that the German barrage fire is
 being laid low at this point. Hall way down the picture is another sucf line.
 At any moment that the French wish to attack it,is obvious that the! have full information before them, the location and size of the German bat

the front is so valuable that no pains can be too great.
 The third and probably the scarcest type of men are those who will be in- trusted with fitting these photographs together and Interpreting them. First, the various photographs must be laid alongside each other as an ex- act composite photographic of the whole German front below. This, of course requires skill and judgment and knowledge of topography and Craftsmanship. Any error would be disastrous.
 The actual work of Interpreting" the photographs-tha is, of ferreting out from them the information which the Germans have used every precau- tion to conceal-requires a keenness of observation and a power of deduc- tion that is equaled only in the finest detective work. For instance, the Germans had been bombarding Dun kirk from a distance of nearly 20 miles for several months without the French being able to locate the Continued on Page Fourteen)
