"In the task, however, of organizing his
country for war he has carried his Fabian
tactics too far. His initial programme E.
needed resourceful, energetic and skilful
execution. In arranging for it's execution he
was quite right in testing out the existing
organization first and in avoiding drastic
changes until he could supplement foreign
with American experience and adjust the
lessons Of France and Great Britain to Ameri-
can administrative institutions. But, un-
fortunately, he has ignored foreign expert
ence and neither he nor his chief assistants
have recognized or studied the manifest de-
fccts in the existing organization which the
first few months of war work revealed. AS
the summer passed into the fall and winter
came on it became apparent that the war

IN the January issue of ''Thc Atlantic
Monthly There is the use made of
physics in determining by sound waves
the location of enemy artillery:
When a Shot is fired from German gun
toward the Allies line the observer in the
latter hears three sounds. The first Of these
Us the sound due to the passage of tho shelf
through the arthis because the velocity
OF the shell is greater than that Of sound
waves; the second sound to be heard is the
boom of the gun itself, and the third is that
que to the explosion of the shell. So. if
'hcre are two or more receiving stations. at
cach OF which some such apparatus as a
simple mcrophone is installed, and if each
OF these Is connected by wires to a central
station where there is a recording device
each microphonc will register the arrival of
the three sound waves; but since the re-
ccivlng stations at different distances
from the gun. any type of wavc--for
instance, the 'boom'--will reach them at diff
1efent lhStants of time. In order to know
the time intervals, all that is necessary Is
10 make an extremely accurate clock record
Its indications on the same strip Of manor

knowing the velocity of the sound waves as
we DO, and also tho exact situation of the
receiving stations and their relative dis
tanccs, 1T is Il simple matter to work out
graphically the position of the gun.
he only uncertain element in the process
is the velocity of the sound waves. because

affected by the wind if this is strong But
corrections can be made, and the accuracy
