Entire Program to Be Completed by
August New Type Car
for Officers.

REPORTS received today by Brig. Cen.
Chauncey 2. Baker, head of the War
Departments motor transport division,
show that ninety factories are working

ed before August /. Five hundred of

month. 1900 in April $500 in May.
5000 in June and the remainder in
July.
1t is expected that before midsummer
further orders will be placed.
The type A truck has A capacity of
three tons Specifications for the type
B machine, of one and a half tons ca
pacity, have been completed, and the
department will advertise for bids.
Congress will be asked for an initial
appropriation sufficient to purchase
5000 of the type.
Motor experts assisting the govern
ment will begin plans shortly for motor

The motor transportation division
also has perfected a passenger auto
mobile, unofficially termed the Officer
car" which is intended for the use of
high ranking officers in France. This
car is to be built in two types, one for
the rapid transportation of parties of
officers along the front and the other
being designed to offset the discom-
forts of longer journeys.
A chauffeurs' school is to be estab-
lished soon for the instruction of
drivers for the various Army vehicles.

TALKS OF THE HUN DESIRE
TO DOMINATE THE WORLD
B. B. Baumgardt Says Prussian Has
Never Known Anything But War.
Thinks Allies Will Win.

That the Prussian effort at world
conquest began with the dominat ton
of the Teutons of southern Germany,
was the idea advanced by B. r. Baum
eardt in two lectures before the Ma
tional Geographic Society at the New
Masonic Temple yesterday He de-
clared that the Prussian has ever been
materialist. with enough of the east
in his blood to make him the criminal
that he is. On the other hand. accord
ing to his view. the Teuton of south
Germany was ever an ideaIist, ever an
exponent of liberty, ever the advocate
of freedom. but in him today there is
little left of these qualities. because the
Prussian has driven them out of him
and has largely made him over ac
cording to Prussian ideas. AS an ex-
ample of what the world might expect
if Prussia should dominate it, he held
up the transformed. Prussianized, DEM
ocratic people of southern Germany
MIR. Baumgardt declared that with
Prussia there is and ever has been
nothing but war. Even the great uni
versities, he said have directed their
scientific endeavors more toward ind
ing ways and means of multiplying
the power of the sword than toward
spreading CIVILIZATION. In them, Dac
teriology and toxicology had even de-
seconded to the form of finding ways
and means of propagating terri BILE dis
eases in enemy countries and new
methods of poisoning those who stood
against Prussian purposes
The speaker predicted that the tri-
umph of allied arms is inevitable, and
declared that all of the criticisms that
have been leveled at the British navy
are wholly and entirely unjust. He
pointed out the tremendous problems it
has faced and the unparalleled success
soldiers and munitions across the En-
glish channel to France. He said that
5000, 900 soldiers had been carried from
England to France without the loss of
a single life.
with the cooperation of the army

stated. land the German lines will have
