DEVASTATED POLAND IS BEING REBUILT

Devastated Poland is being rebuilt Because of the close German super vision and the German practice of seizing all materials for German use, the work has had to becarried on almost surreptitiously, But it is al ready under way. It is naturally of T temporary nature, first because of lack of supplies and money and again teCausa the need of shelters is so pressing and immediate But various Polish groups are working, trying to direct even this work in such a man. ner that the labor now being employ cd will be used for at least laying the foundation for new Poland to be created.
 The actual rebuilding will of neces- sity have to be an after-the-war pro blem, because the devastation in the country has so widespread and complete. Huc eds of villages have been actually reduced to heaps of d'nders and ashes, roads have been ohliterated, the fields have been made sterile, and even the trees. not only along the highways. but in larger forest tracts, have been cut to the stumps.
 Public buildings, bridges and rail ways have been destroyed and in that portion of the kingdom adjoining Ger #man Poland. the railroads have been remade to link with German govern mental system, while the rollin stock has been either confscated or worn 4o such an extent as to be useless as an economic instrument in future.

pleteness of the destruction of Polish villages and towns was made easier by the character of the houses and general buildings. The extraordinary wooded areas in Poland and the na- tural cheapness of wood has resulted in large wooden house areas. Some Of them had thatched roofs, and in
 other cases shingles were used. Many houses that were not destroyed by shell fire were caught by the tor ches of the advancing and retreating armies, and even those which escaped
 the fire brands were. consumed in general conflagrations. The practice of covering the wood constructions with plaster served in some cases to save the buildings from incendiary shells, but unfortunately this form of protective covering was employed chiefly in the rural districts, and not in the more thickly settled communi- ties where it might have been of va lue as q fire stopping agent
 Fortunately there are today in Po- land men who out of the misfortunes of the war hope to build new Poland, which will be a safer and hauuier country than the Poland of The mast. Even before the war, the housing purposes suhiected the towns and villages to freauent fires, which often lard waste entire tracts. The economic losS of these fires has long been subject of serious discussion er1 tha Warsaw Architects circle had started an agitation for the em- nlovmert Of etter fire.resisting 'naterial.

FATHER MAS HELD

PARIS.-How an American pnivate took his own father prisoner during the push On the Marne, is told by an American Red Cross worker who was in the thick of it. He writes:
 Some American soldiera were rounding up 9 pocket of stray German soldiers in a clump of woods when group of about 20 of the enemy suddenly appeared with hands over
 r air heads in token 'cf surrender. Several Of the Americana were de- tailed to take the prisoners back to the rear.

 Council of National Defense.
 American Federation of Labor.
 American Red Cross.
 National Y. M. c. A.
 National Catholic WarCouncil
 Jewish Welfare Board U. S. A.
 Federation Farms Organizations
 Farmers National Headquarters.
 National Council of Women
 National Committe on Prisons and Prison Labor
 It is proposed by the section to se- cure the cooperation of the govern. mentdepartments in the reclamation of all waste materianls and to utili- ze the labor of prisoners, both of war and civil, in the work; also to assist in securing legislation tending to make the salvage materials perma. nent and thereby establish national waste reclamation system.
 S'SouIZdtiOU VI IOCdt NOuNCIIS
 The local councils will be brought together at the call of the mayor or city executive in each city, town or village, inthe United States to organ. iZe and perfect an organization best suited to the needs of the locality. It is the councils duty to inaugurate an educational campaign in order to eff ect the saving of waste materials and thus conserve the resources of the country, both in man power and ma. terial
 Among the materials to be reclaim ed are paper, cotton, rags, iron, steel copper, wool, brass, zinc, aluminium rubber. babbit metal, tin fol, leather. lead, etc.

section will advise each council as to the minimum prices obtainable in any given locality
 After the local organizations are completed a salvage week will be started as the initial effort of the counIl. These councils will be as' sisted in securing the cooperation by the salvage publicity section of the war industries board.
 Collection and Disposal
 The reclamation section, as sug- gested in its bulletin, outlines the various methods of collection, dispo- sal, and cources of waste, and will make every effort to clear up the heretofore problem of the housewife store and community-thato of secur. ing a market for salvage material necesPoary to carry on the war pro gram and at the same time receive . fair price as an incentive to save.
 The war industries board cites that there is no more patriotic duty that a local council can perform in helping to win the war than by your effort to reclaim every pound of waste mater ial and send it on its way back to the nils for remanufacture.
 The national crusade for salvage VIII go far toward relieving the pre- sent paper situation. The government has been saying save, save; but until now no method was adopted to dis. pose of that pile of papers and old rags, the alternative was to burn it.
 Money in Saving Paper
 Through the work of reclamation section every housewife, every boy and girl, and any local organization can secure 50 cents for every 100 pounds of paper saved. '"7
 Start Pat noce. and be ready for your council when it organizes. Don't burn a single scrap of paper. the bonfire now is virtually a form of treason. You would not burn dollar bill; then why burp 200 pounds of paper?
