GERMAN WOUNDED
sent To BELGIUM
To Conceal From The Ger
man People Their Heavy
Sacrifices.

Washington, April IA French
official estimate of the German losses
in the great battle on the western
front puts their total casualties at be-
tween 275, 900 and 100000 men. The
Germans are sending most of their
wounded to Belgium, it is declared, to
conceal from the German people their
heavy sacrifices.
The dispatches follow:
After an eleven-day offensive,
during which the Germans have reck-
lessly pushed forward their attacking
waves one may gather fairly &C
curate estimate of their losses.
"In the first place, it has been pos
sible to identify nearly one hundred
of their divisions since the beginning
of the offensive, more than ten of
which were twice engaged. Some di-
visions had to be relieved at the end
of the first day, having lost more than
half of their men, such was the case
of the Forty-fifth and Eighty-eighth.
The later has been nearly entirely
wiped out. Among those that have
suffered the most are the Fifth,
'welfth, Twenty-eighth and One Hun
dred and Seventh Divisions, as well
as the Second (Prussian Guard) the
Sixteenth, the Twenty-first and TWEEN
ty-sixth Divisions of reserves.
I'm the second place, an enormous
number of corpses were found on the
battle ground, and the prisoners on
being questioned acknowledged the
extent of the losses of their respective
units.
ITO conceal from the German
people the heavy sacrifices that theil
offensive methods required the Ger
mans are sending most Of theil
wounded to Belgium.
1T is not an eXaggeration to estl
mate the total of their losses at be
tween 275,OOO to 100000 men,"

TO OUT.SHOOT GERMAN GUN.

Washington, April PLANS for a
supercannon, a great gun of long
range possibly similar to the one with
which the Germans have been bonn
harding Paris, have been submitted to
Secretary Daniels by naval ordnance
EXPERTS, after months of experiment.
1t is understood, however, that the
report included a statement that the
ordnance officers do not believe the
military value of such weapon
would compensate for the time ana
money spent in developing it.
American ordnance officers have
been interested in the possibilities OF
long range guns for the past 10 years.
The belief that the game was not
worth the candle" as one officer ex-
pressed is to-day, prevented rapid
progress, but experiments were not
dropped, and, since the entrance OK
the United States into the war add
ed interest has been evidenced in the
Navy Department.
Reports were heard in some quar-
ters to-day that a range of los miles
was expected of the gun under cen
sideration. Secretary Daniels would
not discuss the matter in any way.
but other officials declared that no
definite data was at hand on which to
make any such estimate.

Washington, April with the
battle of Picardy brought to stand
still for the time being, at least, and
the initial momentum of the German
drive overcome, military observers
were plainly puzzled tonight by the
fact that a great commensurate had
not developed. The psychological
moment of the counter stroke, un-
der the rules of strategy, they think,
is passing. if IL has not already pass
ed. without a recorded movement of
the allied forces toward throwing
hack the exhausted foe before he has
had time to dig himself in.
Officers here admit frankly, howev-
er. that they do not know what the
situation at the front is. II any re-
mort has come from Generals Bliss
or Pershing that would serve to ex-
plain the defensive tactics of the Al
lies. 1t is carefully guarded secret.
Naturally nothing would be made
public regarding such advices, even
without Secretary Bakers order of
yesterday shutting down absolutely
on War Department announce ments
regarding operations in France. That
order has served, however, to make
officers even more cautious about dis
cussing the situation informally
II is possible, it was suggested
that the plan of campaign mapped
out by Gen. Foch is of far greater
scope than would be involved In an
effort to hurl the enemy back to his
old lines. The German defenses
there which successfully stemmed the
British assault in 1916 are still in
tact. and even If the Allies were sue
cessful in rushing the German lines
back over the twenty or thirty-mile
zone he has wrested from them they
would face those defenses when theii
own organization was badly demoral
lied by their advance and their mer
showing the wear and tear of a pro
longed offensive.
Allied Losses Small.
Figures reaching here as to allied
losses i'm the bitter days just clos
ed in Picardy indicate that British
and French casualties have been un
expectedly light in view of the scop'
of the action. One estimate heard
although its accuracy is open Il
doubt, fixes the total, including pris
.oners, at between $4,000 and 1870,
900 for the twelve days of ceaseles
battle along fifty-fve mile front
This is to be compared, If correct
with French estimates of $4,000 q
100000 Germans killed, wounded
or captured during the same period
The bulk of the German losses wer
dead and wounded men, as there nav
been no claims from the Allies OF ha'
ing captured any great number OF Tn
enemy. although some thousands vi
doubtedly were taken.

longer required and in the summer
 time may result in an overheated mix
 ture, which will reduce the power of
 the motor very perceptibly.
 Before removing the flexible hot air
 tube, it is well to clean out any soot that may have accumulated in the hot
 air jacket of the carburetor. This is
 easily and quickly done by stopping up
 the opening in the exhaust pipe back of
 the muffler and speeding up the motor
 for a minute or two. There is a small
 diamond shaped shutter on the bottom
 of the carburetor. which should be opened by means of loosening the set screw. The pressure will thus be di- verted through the flexible hot air tube and into the hot air jacket, passing out through the opening uncovered by the diamond shape shutter. No attempt should be made to put anything into the jacket to loosen the soot, as it will blow out readily if the above directions are followed. Be sure to remove the stopper from the exhaust pipe when finished.
 Next diisconnect the flexible hot air tube, stopping up the hole in the ex- haust pipe with a pipe plug. The flex- ible hot air tube should be slowed away | in the toll box or some other convent
 ent place, ready for use when the cold weather comes again.
 Of course it is unnecessary to use the dash choker in starting warm motor In fact, the choker should be rarely used during the warm weather and after the motor is started it is best tC set the lever at "cold" on the dial in l dicator and drive with it in that posi- | tion.

AUTOMOBILE CAMPING ACCORDING TO HOYLE

night when you have to pitch camp without a single stick of dry wood in view.
 The question of pots and pans in which to prepare the food is solved by ingeniously designed utensils, that are made with removable handles, sc that they may be nestled to take up space. A typical cooking kit comes in a small keg which occupies little space on the car and weighs only ten or twelve pounds.
 How to Serve Food
 Having provided for the cooking oi the food, the next thing is how tC serve it. Camp table kits furnish the answer. These may be had in any degree of elaborateness. They in clude knives, forks and spoons, plates cups and saucers, these latter 1T white enamel ware, with thermo: bottles, salt and pepper shakers, etc. and usually they are packed in { hamper, which makes for easy pack. ing when camp is being broken. Int prices of these luncheon kits range | from $5 up to- almost any figure, ac. cording to the number of people pro vided for and the material of whici the utensils are made.
 The question of what to carry il one that the newcomer in camping circles finds difficulty in solving. Tn temptation is to load the car Witl provisions and supplies that coul' really be more advantageously bough en route. The staples, sugar, salt pepper, coffee, tea, packed in glass with about a pound of butter in tight jar are about the only supple needed for the ordinary camping tou in thickly settled districts. Buy Fresh When Possible
 The ordinary supplies, meat, vege tables, bread, eggs, etc, should b bought from day to day. This no only saves carrying space, which i valuable but the provisions are fresh CT when so obtained Many peopl make a practice of carrying one O two emergency rations to provide fo the unexpected. A little chocolate an a can of condensed milk, may prov useful on occasion. But on the whol remember that the experienced camp CT always travel light.

WARM WEATHER
 CARbURET|ON
 |S VITAL P0|NT

With the advent of warm weather, there is one very essential point which is easily overlooked by the average automobile owner, and that is getting to much heat to the carburetor. The Buick carburetor is provided with a flexible hot air tube, which is connect ed with the exhaust manifold and di- verts the hot gases from the exhaust manifold through the jackets around the carburetor and out at the bottom through the diamopd shaped shutter. These hot gases warm the gas cham Der in the carburetor. thus aiding in vaporizing the fuel, and the mixture enters the inlet manifold in a thor oughly vaporized condition. thus giving the best result both as to power and economy even during the coldest weather.
 In order to obtain the best results during warm weather. the flexible hot air tube from the exhaust pipe to the carburetor should be disconnected. The extra heat that is needed to vaporize the gasoline during cold weather is no

FORD CYLINDER-HEAD PLATE

Ford owners should be very careful in removing the cylinder head, not to dent or otherwise injure the large gasket. After this gasket has been removed, both sides should be care fully cleaned and then painted with solution of gum shellac dissolved in alcohol. just before it is returned to it's place. In replacing the cylinder head the bolts should be firmly frightened and the engine should be run until the metal is thoroughly warmed up and then the bolts can be given another tightening all around.

eyes were buring with an almost I'M

his emaciated face, showing the
traces of terrific suffering. AS he
spoke he accumulated his words

pictured in his prime when he tried
to fire his countrymen to fight to the
last ditch.
Despite Russia's heroic sacrifices
during three years OF war without
which victory could not possibly have
been won, despite the supreme effort
during my regime in that vital sum
mer when we kept the Germans
pinned on the east front while Amer

her decisive weight into the struggle

pite all this, and more, the entente is

With a sweep OF his arm he answered:

At recent Sim Fein meetings de-
