WAR CHESTS" WANING

When the war chest idea for municipalities first began superfic- ial analysis generally evoked enthu- siasm. In some of the cities where the plan was tried enormous sue cess" was claimed
 But some arguments against the plan have materialized, and the 'swar chest' ideal is waning.
 Most important of the objections are those which have to do with the lack of individuality in such a wholesale collection of funds for all purposes. Persons contributing to war chests have no say as to where the money is to go. As a result,

some of the organizations of minor character feel themselves entitled to a percentage of the war chest funds to the detriment of the more import ant funds.

This mole, which iuts out into the
North Sea more than mile and a
half from Zeebrugge, thus forming
the harbor for the town, because
there is no natural bay to receive
ships, was the scene of the desperate
battle between the British raiders
under Admiral Sir R. Y. Tyrwhitt
and Germans Monday night. The ad-
miral led his men in cruisers to the
mole and boarded it. After a fight
the Germans ran and much property
was destroyed by the British. Two
old submarines loaded with explo-
sives were sent against the. sides to
blow up the mole.
The map shows the relation of
zeebrugge and .Ostend, points on the
Belgian coast, which the Germans
have made their submarine bases,
to the coast of England and the Eng
lish channel. Both points were at
tackled by the raiding force under
Admiral Tyrwhitt. Neither town has

tied up there, and those at sea will
not be able to get in. He ran two

U-BOAT BASE
ADMIRAL OUT
AT ZEEBRUGGE
Taken by Surprise in British
Raid, Schroeder Gets Dis
missal, Is Report

Amsterdam, April 26.-Vice Admi-
raj Schroeder, the commander al
Zeebrugge, according to reports
reaching here, will be deprived OF
his command for being taken by
surprise by the British Tuesday.
German newspapers in comment
ing on the raid at Zeebrugge, gen.
orally take the hint given in the Of
ficial reports of Berlin and represent
the enterprise as having been a fail
ure. Some, however, admit that the
attack was made with great bold
pess.
The cement-laden ships which
were sunk close to the coast will not
hinder the exits and entrances of
the German naval forces" the Koel-
nische Zeitung says.
Germans Admit Blockade
The Lokal Anzeiger says the raid
ers succeeded in blocking the water
way to a great extent but the U-boats
still are able to leave their harbor
as narrow passage remains. The
Weser Zeitung regard the British
version as a fantastic substitution of
the wish for the deed and adds:
TT is a success of which we Ger
mans may boast"
The Koelnische Volks Zeitung sees
in the attack evidence that the exist
ence of a submarine base at Zee
brugge is making "life intolerable
for England"

Winston Churchill Tells Com
mons the Claim of German
Capture Is Grotesque

London, April 26.-Winston Spen-
Ger Churchill introducing in the
House of Commons yesterday the es-
Inmates for the Ministry of NUM-
tions, OF which he is the head, said
that during the five weeks since the
battle in France had. opened they
had been passing through the great
est strain regarding the supply OF
war material that had occurred in
the experience of the Ministry.
Not only had the consumption and
destruction of munitions of all kinds
been proceeding at the greatest
rate, but there also were very heavy
losses by capture by the enemy.
we lost" the Minister said,
nearly 1000 guns by shellfre or
captures; between 1000 and 5000
machine guns have been lost or de-
stroyed. and the quantity of ammu-
milton, apart from that which has
been fired and that which has been
lost in the dumps, amounted to
something between one and three
weeks total of manufacture"
Germans Grotesque Exaggeration
Referring to the German War Min
iSbSi . SidlHi 10 lHe capture or more
than twice the number of guns than
he had announced, Mr.. Churchill said
that the German claim was a gro
tesque eYaggeration and untrue
But if 1t had been true, he believed
that he would still have been able
to say that the losses in guns had
been made good. Not only had the
machine guns been replaced. but
the Munitions Ministry had placed at
the disposal of the air and ground
services more than twice the num-
Der of guns lost or destroyed in bat
tie in France.
The supply of airplanes had been
for some time in advance of the de-
velopment of squadrons and trained
pilots and this supply had enabled
the Ministry to meet all the needs of
the great battle and the wastage
resulting therefrom, and, in addi-
ton, TO carry forward the program
of expansion to which the govern
ment was committed. The output or
tanks had been so accelerated that
the Ministry was in a position to re-
place every tank lost by one of new
and better pattern as fast as the
army could take the delivery.

Combing Won't Rid
Hair Of Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve it, then you
destroy it entirely. To do this, get
about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retir-
ing; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger
tips. e
Do this tonight, and by morning,
most, if not all, of your dandruff will
De gone, and three or four more ap-
splications will completely dissolve
and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of it, no matter now
much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work.
