The word "Autochir" has been in
vented by Americans In France to
describe an American motor truck
train carrying a special type Of load
toward the front. The first syllable
'S plain enough: the second is from
the word "chirurgical," the old way
of spelling surgical. Combined they
describe an American Red Cross
truck OF eighteen camions carrying
in knock-down from a tent hospital
of 200 beds. One truck transports
complete operating room ready to
be bolted together and put into op-
Grafton in a few minutes. It's trailer
is a sterilizing room which Is backed
up against the operating room
structure. From this trailer the
nurse passes sterilized instruments
and supplies to the surgeons around
the operating table. The other
trucks carry double tenting, sturdy
framework, floors in sections, win
dow frames, heating stoves and full
equipment for diet kitchens. Red
Cross construction crews specially
selected and trained for the work
go with the trucks and within a very
short time after the first truck
reaches the selected point the wards
are ready to receive patients.
For the primary purpose OF edu-
eating the people of the United
States In the principles OF systematic
conversation the American Red
Cross. at the request OF Bernard M.
Baruch, chairman OF the war indus
tries board, has established a Red
Cross bureau Of conservation.
Announcement will be made from
time to time OF the particular ma
terials the collection and conserva-
ton OF which the war Industries
board deems most important.
One OF the important parts OF the
work of the war industries board re-
lates to the conservation of mate
rials essential to the winning OF the
war. To meet the need for country
wide, co-ordinated activity along
this line and appreciating the scope
and efficiency of the Red Cross or
ganization, Chairman Baruch ap-
pealed to II to supplement the con-
servation work OF the war Industries
board. 1t is believed that the en-
listing of the active interest of more
than twenty million members of the
Red Cross will result in a direct ed
ucational force that will bring the
United States to the highest degree
Of conservation efficiency.
In addition to itss educational
function the Red Cross bureau Of
will collect through

Governor Walter E. Edge and mem

Mayor Hylan yesterday at the City Hall
on the plan of cooperation of New York
City and state in the building Of a tun-
mel for vehicles under the Hudson
River between Jersey City and Man

ar hour, was secret
Mayor Hylan had no comment to
make, but his secretary, Grover Whalen,
explained that the Mayor was heartily
In sympathy with the proposition, if a
way could be found to raise the money
Mr.. Whalen said the matter would be
brought to the attention of the Board
Of Estimate TO see how the city might
cooperate.
There appears 10 be small chance of
raising any money through municipal
channels IN view of the administration :
strict policy of economy and it thought
likely that, if the tunnel is built, it
Will have to be done either as pri-
vate enterprise or state project. 1t
was said that promise Of private capital
had already been made, if it was found
necessary to carry the project through
in that way.

assed by the Senate

WASHINGTON, April BIN record

thoriZing $4,000 100000 more war
bonds. additional loans OF 81. 800 900 900
20 the Allies and the Increase of
treasury indebtedness certificates from
$4,000 100000 to S.O00OOO.0O0 The
measure was approved without a roll
call and after less than an hours per
functory debate. The bill already has
been passed by the House and differ
ences are so slight that conference
may be unnecessary.
During to-day's debate Chairman
Simmons of the Finance Committee
SAID that with enactment Of the bond
legislation all Treasury needs could
be met this year and that further way
revenue legislation would not be neces-
sary until the session Of Congress next
December Similar views recently
were expressed by Democratic Leader
kltchin of the House.
During his explanation OF he pro-
visions of the bill Senator simmons
also said Secretary McAdoo felt t viii
be unnecessary TO increase the future
interest rate on bonds.
To avoid delay the Senate ssruck out
the clause which caused the House to
recall and readopt the bill prohibit
ing banks from using bonds to ovade

will do all in their power to Giscourage

The public was asked by Mr.. Strong
to be patient over the delay in the
delivery of bonds TO subscribers. He
asserted that the bureau Of Printing
and Engraving at Washington had been
taxed to the limit in turning out A..
100000 bonds
Mr.. Lamont recalled that in the sale
OF the first loan 10 per cent Of New
ork s population bought bonds as
against AZ per cent Of the population
OF the rest Of the country; and in the
second loan the proportion was 20 per

rupt the flow of savings deposits to that
class OF banks. But it has been the ex-
perlence in Canada and abroad that the
placing of war loans even at higher
rates Of interest than those allowed by
savings institutions has not caused
withdrawals from such banks to any
dangerous extent; in fact, has had lit
IT, effect other than to cause tenn
porary suspension of new deposits. Our
own experience is similar Even the
postal savings deposits, which bear a
much lower rate of interest than is
borne by our government bonds, have
increased during the entire period OF

or IN training in this country or in

the country our people are watching
military developments with breathless
anxiety. Your task is by so much the
lighter. Those who are seeking Sc
curlty for their own flesh and blood
Will not withhold the dollars needed
to insure victory. This should be the
keynote Of our campaign"
After declaring that the I'd District
VIII be called upon to sell 100000. 900
as its quota of the loan, Mr.. Strong
continued:
DO not let the notion become preva-
lent that buying war bonds is simply d
financial transaction. 1t is far more
than that; it is a contribution of war
materials and of the labor to produce
war materials to enable our armies to
win battles.
1T has been estimated that prior to
the war the annual production and
turnover of the country had value Of
$50, 600, 0000 900. This may now have in
creased to 100000 900 900 The appro-
priation bills passed by Congress rep

SO urgently needed, unless our people
withdraw some part of their demands
and give the government right OF way.
To the extent that we indulge in un-
necessary expenditures, by so much we
retard production of war materials; to
presence Of fully equipped armies in
Europe we jeopardize the outcome of
the war.
During the last campaign, in some
communities, when quotas had been
completed, the committees discontinued
work. If every organization adopted
this policy the loan would not be fully
subscribed, because in some sections

Your efforts should continue without

none escape.
MANY questions have been asked az
to the attitude of the Liberty Loan or

banks. The answer presents no diff

that depositors in savings banks should
