The editor replied to this, suggest
ing that country girl was too
anxious" but we sympathize with
her because no one has been able
to tell exactly where a Marine be-
longs.
AT San Francisco, recently, some
one presented trophy for the first
sailor to finish in the big Dipsea
races. The committee awarded the
trophy to Albert Pinther, a marine,
But Fred Murphy, the Olympic Club
boy, who is chief petty officer in
the navy, protested and remarked
that member of the marines is not
to be regarded as a sailor. Big Chief
Fitzpatrick and Secretary Vincent
Ffnnegan lodged the issue. And they
have passed the buck Until the prob
lem is answered the trophy will be
withheld. AS a matter of fact. the
marines are under the authority of
the Navy Department But that
doesn't seem to answer the question.
AT some of the training camps the
boxing bouts are made interesting
by the fact that the soldiers make
UP purse for the boxers, of which
the winner gets rs per cent. and the
loser rs per cent.

AUSTRIA BARE Of

People No Longer Enthusiastic,
Returned Prisoner Reports

(Correspondence of The Associated Press)
Rome, February 22.-"The allies
can win this war only by holding on,
by the exertion of economic pressure
on the Central Empires and by rigid
economy at home in the opinion of
DR.. Massimo Pantaleoni of the italian
army who has just been exchanged
after 20 months as a prisoner in
Austria and Hungary. DR.. Pan
taleoni, although italian by birth has
many relatives in the United States.
1.-The secret of winning the war"
said DR.. Pantaleoni, remains in the
blockade and in the allies at home
exercising the greatest economy but
so organizing that economy in the
way of limitation of consumption of
foods and fuels and clothes that
people will not be compelled to lose
several hours of their time each day
searching for coal, or bread, or such
articles.
1T is like passing from darkness
into daylight on leaving Austria,
where the stores are empty of all use
ful articles, cloth sells at about the
equivalent of $26 q yard. where
leather shoes sell for 120 kronen the
pair, where there is no sugar at all
for sale where the bread rate for the
civil population is two and half
ounces for each person per day, where
the fat ration is one-quarter of an
ounce and where potatoes sell for
hwenty cents a pound instead of two
cents a pound before the war.
Austrian Mortality Increases.
"In Austria mortality has increased
very much since a year ago because
of poor or no nourishment leading to
Theuma tism and dysentery, and when
people die there are no collins IN
which to bury them. Instead, their
shrouds and good clothes are re-
placed by rags and in these they are
buried
Living conditions have not been
improved by the taking of Rumania.
"Whilc in Hungary attending Ital-
ian prisoners, who had been sent as
far away as possible from the Isonzo
front so that they could not escape
and go home Rumanians told me
civil conditions mad been such in
Rumania that the fields had not been
worked and therefore the crops had
been poor.

Can one conceive anything more

when Great Britain is our ally and

Practically, there is this difference
also. The British, Canadian and
Australian war machines have been
W orking n long time. They can take
raw recruits, train them, mix them
il with old soldiers and get them into
the trenches in less than half the

AUStiialtS Indifferent.
The Austrians people have been in
different about the war for long
time. They want peace, any kind Of
peace, and the longer the war lasts
the less they have to keep the war
going. The Germans are still pos
sessed of the monomania of domina~
ton of wishing to grab all they see, to
take, take; but time is sure to bring
them to their knees, to cut down
their fighting materials, while that of
the Allies keeps on growing, and this
is why l maintain that the Allies must
win if they resist, if they exert econ-
omic pressure on themselves, and re-
fuse to patch up peace.
1.-The Germans now are seriously
afraid of the English and French, be-
cause they realize their superiority in
fighting materials.
"All that has been said about the
il-rcatment of the prisoners is true.
They are so poorly fed that if they
fall i'll they are sure to die, as their
bodies have no resisting power. Most
of their illnesses are in the inteStincS
or Of a bronchial nature leading to
tuberculosis. Their food consists, in
the camps, of soup made of beets in
the proportion of one half pound a
day for each man, with sometimes a
potato and two ounces of meat once
a week. In the hospital of Sigmund-
sherberg where [ served, a hospital
arranged for 5000 men, the death roll
has risen from one men every two
days to three and four a, day.
"Prisoners put on government work
last about two months. The phrase
prisoners step, has passed into the
language, so feebly do the gangs
shuttle along, without power to lift
their feet from the pround. Also the
Austrian soldiers are very cruel, shoot
ing or bayoneting prisoners for the
slightest infraction of rules"
