Plan Is Adopted to Shut
Out German Made Goods

Washington - Regulations in
tended to prevent German owned
firms with factories in Switzerland
from exporting their product under
the guise Of Swiss goods after the
war have been adopted by the Swiss
chambers of commerce in connection
with the establishment of a new ma
tional trade mark for all Swiss
exports.
The regulations provide that use
of the trade mark be confined to
firms two-thirds of whose capital
is Swiss and to goods that actually
are made in Switzerland exclusively
by the Swiss. 1t is known that many
firms operating in the country which
are ostensibly Swiss, have been es-
tablished by German capital, or &C
auired from their original owners
by German manufacturers, in order
that an apparently neutral outlet
might be secured for German-made
goods in the postwar period. The
president of the Geneva chamber OF
commerce is quoted in advices re-
ceived here as stating that control of
these will not be easy, but that the
!. chamber is alive to the probability
Of improper use of the trade mark
and Swiss manufacturers are being
asked to bring cases of this kind to
official notice.

German Given His
Reward When He
Becomes Traitor
Correspondent Associated Press.

SOllCSpOtfuCHl faooOCldlGu IlCSS.
With the American Army in Field,
Sept. 30.-An instance of cowardly
treachery on the part of a captured
German officer who had been wound
ed and who had been offered help
by an American officer Is told by
1t. Edward Nichols, Jamaica, N. Y.
After the big drive of the allies
in August, Lieutenant Nichols was
placed in charge of a company of
soldiers whose task it was to clear
the field of American dead and
wounded. Although his duties did
not require him to aid the German
wounded on the field until the Amer
leans were disposed of the lieutenant
went to the assistance of a German
infantry officer who seemed more
than any of his comrades to be in
need of succor.
The lieutenant was in the act of
christening his canteen and giving
the wounded man a drink of water
when the German dreaw a revolver
while the unsuspecting Americans
face was turned and aimed it at the
head of his rescuer. Before he
could pull the trigger, however, a
quick-witted American sergeant
plunged his bayonet through the
Germans heart. The Germans act
was condemned by his captured
comrades.

Tanks Play Their
Part in Winning
Battles in Europe

Behind British Lines in France,
Oct. 3.-(Correspondence of the
Associated ss.)-Tanks, cavalry
and armored motor cars have had
larger part in the recent fighting on
the western front than ever before
in the war. They have added greatly
to the driving weight and, speed Of
assault of the modern intensive at
tack, and their use has been de-
veloped tremendously by the Brit
;sh command since last year.
The modern tank has twice the
speed of the earlier type, and more
than twice the radius of action. In
fantry is practically powerless
against them. If infantry attempts
to rush all oncoming tank, they
are machine gunned in the open. If
they stay in their trenches, the tank
straddles the line and enflades them
with direct short-range fire; if they
retreat to the shellholes or dugouts,
the tank numbers along right over
them, crushing them into the
ground and caving in the dugouts.
The light high-speed tanks
known as whippets are devolp-
ment of this year. They are killing
machines pure and simple, for they
can bear down upon fortified points
and batteries at such a speed that
there is little chance of getting the
guns or men away in time. Their
reserve of fuel enables them to re-
main in action for full day without
reflling.
Moreover, the advance of the
whippets is quickly followed by the
so-called supply tanks, which can
cross any ground, bringing up re-
serve supplies of gasoline and am
munition.
The armored motor cars are
necessarily limited in their radius of
action, owing to the fact that they
must stick to the roads, but their
great speed makes them very use
full in pursuit, and they have fac
ulty of getting we'll back behind
the enemy front and doing end
less damage by taking command of
a vital road junction and prevent
ing the escape of enemy guns and
transports. Possibilities of infinite
adventure are open to the command
ers of such detached units.

Ruthlessness Of the

are to be paid in paper currency at
the rate of so cents a day as the
maximum for men, 40 cents for men
and women between the ages of II
and 20 and 80 cents for boys from Is

The inhabitants, however, must
pay in French gold or silver for
their rations. The supplies, of

Retail Trade Not Affected

their shelves footwear that cost
them more than Sl2 and they will be
allowed to dispose of them at a reas-

his does not mean, however, that
shoes of the highest quality can be
purchased at the maximum price of
Sl2, but that the public will have to
be satisfied with lower grade shoe

The government is endeavoring 70

Military Cops Control
Traffic Behind Lines
and Have Busy Time
By Associated Press.

With the Americans on the Brit
ish Front in France, Sept. 30.-One
of the interesting characters seen
on the roads behind the line is the
military policeman. He is stationed
at every crossroad, regulating traf-
fc with all the gestures of a pro-
fessional traffic policeman in New
York or Chicago, but in khaki
uniform and with a red brassard on
his arm as the badge of his author
ity.
Everything from gigantic motor
truck to suffering motorcycle
comes within his jurisdiction. The
haughtiest staff car, with its proud
staff flags and its red-capped pas
sengers, is subject to the law as
laid down by that firm arm in khaki.
1t is a motley pageant that he
marshals. There are big closed cars
containing generals; there are great
open cars filled with young staff
officers of lesser rank, but alert,
energetic and keen. There are even
ly-moving ambulances with the doc
tor sitting calm beside the driver.
There are huge lorries, long columns
of them.
All day long the rush of traffic
on these great main roads continues.
Towards night the roads are some
times quieter, but there is still &C
tivity. All through the night, the
lorries plod on their way backward
and forward, the cars dash by. the
dispatch riders come and go. There
is no rest. Layer after layer of
white dust settles on the houses and
the fences. Day after day the ma
chinery behind the war goes whir-
ring on, growing constantly more
complex and more powerful.

Holland May Send
Mission to America
to Cement Friendship

Correspondence Associated Press.
Amsterdam, Sept. 30-Hollanders
have been told by their friends in
the United States that American
opinion is undergoing a change ad-
verse to Holland. To combat this a
Netherlands society is preparing to
send special mission to America
in the hope of more firmly cement
ing the friendship of the two ma
tons.
Friends of Holland in the United
States, according to the Handels-
blad, which is regarded as the lead
ing newspaper of the kingdom, have
sent word to Holland that the feel
ing in America is that the people of
the Netherlands seem indifferent"
to the American issues of the war.
The paper declares that the con-
sensus of American opinion is that
the Dutch fail to appreciate the pur-
ity of Americas motives, that the
Hollanders think of nothing but to
keep out of the war and enrich
themselves and that the loudness of
their protests against any inconven-
fences they may have suffered as a
result of entente war measures is
not proportionate to the moderate
ness of their complaints against
Germany's crimes on land and sea.
The newspapers freely admits that
there is good ground for reproach.
Many persons in Holland" it says,
Judge the war and the leading
statesmen of the various countries,
especially America, in a captious,
presumptious, even cynical spirit,
which is calculated to grieve Amer
leans sorely. America can justly
expect Holland to believe in the
good faith of its declaration that it
entered the war not from egotistical
or selfish purposes but to free the
world from the cancer of militaristic
imperialism.
Holland has not done nearly
enough to enlighten public opinion
in America regarding the true
feelings of the American people. The
spirit Of the Dutch people is largely
misunderstood and misrepresented
abroad

not to lift the ban against public
funerals where death has resulted
from the epidemic. For the present,
at least, an effort will be made to
dissuade relatives who might de-
sire to have services in the usual
manner and secure their approval
of the open air gatherings in the
cemeteries. The funeral of Mrs.
Hattie Wood, who died Saturday
of the disease, will be held in the
open air in Walnut Hill cemetery
this afternoon.
There was no deaths from infu-
enza Sunday, but ambulances were
busy carrying victims from their
homes to local hospitals. Under
taker King answered six calls dur
ing the day and Undertakers Wood

Americans Laugh
and Joke When
Shot Full Of Holes

With the American Army in
France, Nov. 3.-The laugh and
the joke and the prank are not abb
sent from the American military
hospitals. There is suffering, OF
course, in these great, splendidly
equipped institutions, but even the
shrapnel loaded American citizen
soldier has his fun. One surgeon
tells this story:
"When the lines of stretcher cases
were being brought into his hospital
the surgeons stood in the reception
ward making quick examinations.
One stretcher was brought silently
in. the form of soldier lying rigid
under blankets drawn over the head.
This is the sad sign of one who
needs no more help. They mo-
toned the bearers to set it aside in
a corner and when the last wounded
man had been looked over the SUR
geons reverently lifted the blanket
from the face. The dead" man
sat suddenly up with loud BOO"
Then the Cease" laughed, lay down
and again drew the blanket over his
face. They let him play his joke on
others for a while, then sent him
to a ward to have some machine gun
bullets picked out"
DO you suffer very much, lad
die" asked a nurse of a soldier who
lay in his cot with white face and
tight lips in an American field hos
pital.
mo, miss, oh, no" was the reply.

hfECT. COLONEL Ell. .s.----"--
Lt.-Col. c. H. Smith, quartermas-
ters' corp, at Camp Mills, L. l., has
solved the problem of not only stop
ping the kitchen waste of great
army camps, but making it pay a
profit besides. Aided by Mrs. Ar
thur Scott Burden, prominent Red
Cross worker, Colonel Smith has de-
veloped hog raising on waste food
in army kitchens into one Of the
most remarkable wartime conserva-
ton undertakings. Camp Mills was
selected as the scene of the piggery
experiment, Mrs. Burden offering a
tract of ITO acres about six miles
from the camp. There are now about
800 hogs at the piggery which con-
sumo about $4,000 pounds of gar
bage a day. Government officials
are interested in the experiment.
and it is predicted that piggeries will
be installed at all cantonments,
which will probably save the gov
eminent millions of dollars on the
purchasing of meat for the camps.

Germans Saving Men
Through SkilEul Use
Of Machine Gun Nests

With the American Armies in
France, Sept. 25.-(Correspondence
OF the Associated Press)-Conserva-
ton is the word one hears coming
over the German lines now. Always
economical the Germans are saving
now more than ever before in man
power. Since the day the Germans
started backward from the Marine
they have been conserving their
numbers as never before and they
have done it in a most admirable
manner. But it has been at the ex-
pense of positions.
The German losses in men have
not been so great as might have
been expected. In the fighting north
of the Marine, the retreat was skill
fully planned and carried out in a
manner that excited admiration.
Machine guns were substituted for
men at almost every point and the
way in which the German army is
quilt around that particular bit of
ordnance has been very thoroughly
demonstrated.
Every backward step of the en-
envy was guarded by the automatic
guns. Get back the artillery and the
bulk of the infantry was the order
repeated in the German army as the
French and Americans prodded
them. In almost every instance the
rear guard action meant the resist
ance of little machine gun units and
because of the clever manner in
which the NESTS" were placed they
were able to hold their own long
enough to enable the main armies
behind them to fall back.
They were not always placed in
lines but left here and there just
over the brow of hill or in the
deep woods, on the ground and in
the trees and almost always skill
fully camouflaged. But always their
disposition was coordinate. In the
end it was up to every machine gun
crew to fight its own way out or to
resist to the last, until swept away
by the allies artillery or run over by
their tanks or infantry, but they
were so placed that until that time
came their fire was so directed that
it swept very effectually the advanc-
ing lines. The Germans have lost
thousands of their machine guns by
such tactics but they have saved
proportionately in men.
1t is this evident intention to save
manpower, so different from their
attitude earlier in the war, that has
gone far toward convincing many
that their big military machine is
cracking and that they will not be
able to withstand a winter CAM
paign. \

Even this program" said state
ment by Food Administrator Hoov-

means further self-denial by the
Allies next year. They are making
this sacrifice in the common cause.
We must maintain the health and
strength of every human being
among them or they will be unable
to put their full strength alongside
oui own in the supreme effort
AT the presidents direction
have assured them that in this COM
mon cause we eat at a common
table and upon entering these con-
ferences in Europe we promised
them that whatever their war-food
program called for from us we
should fulfill T.:
IF we survey our ability to meet
this definite promise to them, we
find that while our wheat production
this year is better than last year,
our production of other cereals is
less. We have had severe losses
through drought in many sections.
On balance our resources are no
better than last year.
I'VE find, however, that we can
give this increase in food supplies of
$4,000 tons over last year and
still have margin over the amount
necessary to maintain our own
health and strength" 49,
