DOCTOR SOLF HAS RESIGNED
SELLING BABIES
TO SOLDIERS
The Novel Occupation of One Red
Triangle Man

Paris, Nov. 24-(Correspondence
of the Associated Press s)-"SeIling
babies to soldiers" is Murray Il.
Sawyer's characterization of his ac-
tivities as a Red Triangle man with
the American Expeditionary Force.
Mr.. Sawyer comes from Minneapolis,
MINI.
Horrible, isn't it, but true" he
said to friend who met him in a
French village and asked what he was
doing. "My particular outfit of men
have sold ten babies in the last ten
days and we expect to sell hundred
more. within the next two months.
Why, it's the greatest business in
France today-this selling of babies
to soldiers.
''We have been working with a
bunch of men up pretty close to the
front lately, and when pay day comes
around there's nothing much to do
with their money. So we Y. M. C.
A. men began to figure out something
to offset that.
"There are So men in platoon, and
we suggested that platoon should
adopt a baby on pay day. 1t costs
500 francs to take care of a baby
for one year, and that meant that all
but nine men in a platoon should pay
5 francs each on the first instalment,
and five francs each on the following
pay day. Making a payment each
time of $50 francs, OF the 500 in all.
Each platoon elects a leader who acts
as a go-between for the babies are
bought through the baby department
of the Stars and Stripes. On the
payment of the second and final in
stalment the leader gets seven pic
lures Of the child in various poses.
sit will be possible for one platoon
to take up six babies year, for it
would mean about a dollar from each
man on every pay day, which comes
around about twice in two months.
One man said to me the other day,
Gee, Sawyer, this baby business is
great. Who wouldn't rather have a
baby than a jag?"
And that's the way we Y. NJ. C. A.
men have figured it out. We have
sold ten babies in ten days, and we
are going to place one hundred right
in our division before next pay day
rolls around"

Washington, Dec 10--Success Of
the navy in solving it's war time air.
craft. problems is attributed to the
policy consistently followed of max
ing this sW0rk conform to regular
naval practice. Rear Admiral David
w. Taylor, chief constructors in his
annual report made public today,
says aircraft production has been
handled like other departmental
technical questions, and despite the
great expansion of forces necessary,
direction and control of aircraft
questions have been cared for by Off
GERS familiar with the methods OF
the Navy department.
"Civilians," Admiral Taylor con-
tinues, shave been able to carry on
their naval work under the most IA
vorable conditions. This policy has
demonstrated its soundness. The
types of aircraft developed for pro-
duction have proved successful,
changes have been minimum and
have been adopted only with view to
improvement"
AS the report was prepared prior to
the cessation of hostilities, it does
not go into detail on any part of the
building operations of the navy AS
to aircraft, however, it shows that
both types of seaplanes used by the
navy are Fundamentally American"
improved in design on British ex-
perience. In October production of
the two main types was in excess of
requirements.
Development of balloons for naval
purposes also comes under Admiral
Taylor's bureau. His report shows
that much experimental work was
done with types of parachutes, an
officer of the construction corps hav-
ing dropped from an airship in flight
and from kite balloen TO test the
design adopted. The same officer
also successfully tried out new type
of parachute Carrying the basket OF
kite balloon and it's occupants"
The original plans for the Naval
Aircraft Factory at the Philadelphia
yard called for 1000 small machines
annually, the report says. In Jan
uary, 1918, however, the navy's re-
quirements were suddenly expanded
and the plant was converted into al
assembling center with four times
that capacity. The original pro
gram maximum was reached last
March and the expansion work ha:
now also been completed.
Admiral Taylor gives no details a!
to the ship construction. AS to tht
destroyer program, his most signifi
cant statement is that the govern
nlent owned plant at Squantum
Mass, is to be continued as per
manent adjunct of the navy
