COlOred Girls To Have
Benefit Y. w. C. A. Work

II WASHINGTON, March 13.-Ameri-
can women are caring for the welfare
of the colored women engaged in war
| industries.
They are extending all efforts in or
! ganizing the coIored women into eff
fective organizations for the carrying
out of necessary constructive national
measures among the colored popula-
tion.
Through their welfare organiza-
tions the American women are taking
/ necessary steps to guard the morality
of the numerous colored girls in mu-
milton factories and in other war in
dustries.
AS one of the prominent national
women's organizations that has taken
up the problem Of guarding the well
fare of the colored woman war work
er is the National Y w. c. A. which
is putting through an elaborate pro.
gram to that effect.
OF the million dollar budget OF
the Y. w. G. A. $780, 900 is to he used
for war work among the colored wo-
men and girls.
Among the features of the associa-
tion's program is one to furnish Lead
ers among colored women to train
them to carry on the work among
their own race.
The association is taking care of
emergency housing in war industrial
centers where the government fac
tories employ coloTed as well as white
girls.
Lectures on social morality for
groups of colored women near the
cantonments is one part of the well
fare work by the association.
For this purpose the association has
secured a list Of all the colored wom-
en- graduates from medical schools of
the country for the last 20 years.
Organizations of colored women
for war purposes is proving a diff
cult task, because of the absurd ru
NOR prevalent even among them.
Many refused to register in one city
because they believed they would be
sent to fight the Germans. like the
Russian women.

MEN TAUGHT TO
JUDGE DISTANCES

(By Capt. H. b. C. Pollard OF the
British Army. Written for the
United Press.l
LONDON. Aug. 10. (By mail.)-
Every British soldier is expected to
be able to Judge distance approXl-
mately, and every n-commissioned
officer and officer is expected TO do
1t with fair accuracy. 1t is an essen>
tial part of his training. Without
1t he cannot give his orders correctly
Most people have their own mem
tai unit of comparison such and such
a place is a mile away, and they al
ways think Of distances in terms of
comparison with that mental picture.
But though TO the ordinary man. half
a mile or so is close enough reckon~
ing. the soldier must be able to esti-
mate distances in units of 80 yards or
less. and he con only teach himself to
do this by hard practice. 1t is by
practice that he gets a store Of mon
tai units of comparison which enable
him to Judge distances in the field.
One of the best ways Of teaching
men distances judging is on route
marches At n halt the men estimate
the distance of objects visible ahead
OF them along the road. When the
march is resumed these estimates are
checked by pacing the distances. In
this way the men are taught to take
an interest in distance judging, and
a competitive spirit is encouraged
among them.
In the same way the ranges OF all
prominent objects near camp are
carefully taken with a range finder
and the men are taught by heart the
various distances.

CHANGING THE TUNE

RI MERICA is becoming more
~ and more the terror of the
Central Powers. In Vien-
nas according to the latest adj
vices received here, it was firm
ly believed through the city
that the flying machines which
carried Major Gabrielle DAN
nunzio and his brave aides in
their never to be forgotten
flight over the Austrian capi-
tai were of a new model, made
in America and shipped secret
ly to Italy.
That is way taken to ex-
cuse the lack of preparedness
against a raid, from the mo-
ment the Austrians convinced
themselves that it would be i'm
possible for Italian airplanes to
reach Vienna, and felt safe
against them.
After having professed to
despise American intervention
they minimized the military
of the republic and
strewed over the whole length
of the first line Italian trench
es little cards with such inscrip-
tions as "Where are the milli-
ons of dollars promised by Will
SOM" "Where are the tons of
Wilson promised to
send you?" where are the
millions of soldiers of President
Wilson,"
The fact is that just now the
enemy gives a great deal of So
ber thought to America, and
shows every day what a change
has come over him in regard to
her Intervention. Austria be-
gins to feel uneasy, foreseeing
the crushing preponderance
which the United States is now
waiting to show into the bal
ance against her in favor of
the entente allies.

Should Belgium for that reason

not and Roosevelt would not so
