WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE. Feb 1Az-American army
truck drivers have found use for
the strips of heavy khaki cloth
cut from the bottoms of soldiers
overcoats. One of the drivers dis
covered that mittens of extraordin-
airy warmth could be made from
the cloth and now nearly every
driver of a motor truck or automo-
bile is wearing pair or has de-
termined to make himself some the
first time he has spare ten min
utes.
Many units of the army in France
discovered that the regulation over
coats were too long when first they
donned them. The bottoms, becom.
ing soaked with rain or caked with
lmud, flopped about the legs of the
men and made the garment burden.
Some soldiers discarded overcoats
whenever it was possible for them
10 and many colds or other ailments
resulted.
Then one entire division-a newly
landed organization Of former nation
al guardsmen-sud appeared
with coats that reached to the knee
or an inch above It, The old long
coats were exchanged by their own
ers for the new ones in response
to an order signed by the general
commanding. About the same time
soldiers in other divisions cut their
coats off themselves or had them

tionable bottoms with knives.
In trench an overcoat that
strikes the ankles, drags in the mud
and water is nearly as bad as no
coat at all The practice of cutting
off overcoats now has become gem
eral through the zone of the Amer
ican army and a garment Of the
length usually seen In the United
States rapidly is coming to be re-
garded as a sort of curiosity over
here.
All this shearing, Of course, left
as many strips of cloth as short
coats. There was nothing to do
with the pieces. Many boot was
polished with Khaki.
An army motor truck driver leads
cold life. For many hours day
he sits exposed on the front of his
machine, often spinning along at
rate that would cause an epidemic
of heart disease in the traffic squad
of any American police department.
The drivers manage to keep fairly
comfortable sometimes wearing three
suits of heavy wooden underclothes.
Their chief complaint has been
that they could not keep their hands
warm, and many have been known
to stop their machines in the road
and toast their fingers at the ex-
haust pipe. Then driver with a
pair OF scissors, needle. thread and
good Imagination cut four shapes
from an overcoat bottom, sewed
them together in pairs and found
that by wearing the mittens over
the regulation knitted gloves his
hands remained warm even in the
coldest weather.
overcoat bottoms are in demand
now.

WASHINGTON, Feb l4-President
Wilson was urged today by dele

While the meat producer" he
said, sees his industry in serious
danger as a result of the conditions
mentioned, he finds labor amply pro

and the meat packers, as we'll as the
producers of steel, copper, flour
sugar, lumber and many other com
modities making liberal profits, and

Mr.. Rolph declared that in his
opinion the profits for the past year,
when there was 10 restriction on
prices, were unusuallY and unneces-
sarily high: that the margin now
fixed would result III fair earning

In such cases large part OF the
