USING 16-INCH GUNS
American Weapons Capable of
SCATTERING Rhine Defenses.
Designed for United States Battle
Cruisers, They Are Mounted Now
for Warfare on Land.

Washington.-Details of the achieve
ments of the navy department in maxi
ing available for use on the western
front of the great naval guns which
press dispatches have reported to be
hammering the German railway CEN
tiers back Of the Oise-Serre front were
made public by Secretary Daniels
The naval guns, which have been in
operation since September 16, original
ly were intended for new battle cruis-
ers, but a change in the design of the
vessels left the guns unavailable for
that use. Rear Admiral Earle, chief
of the Navy Bureau of Ordnance, then
recommended that the guns be sent to
the western front, and he was directed
to proceed with the design and con-
struction.
The guns are manned and operated
by officers and men of the United
States navy, under the command Of
Rear Admiral Plunkett, formerly di-
rector of the Office of gunnery exer-
cises and engineering performance.
The first party of officers and men to
handle the guns arrived in France on
June 8, the first shipment of material
left this country on June 20, and the
entire organization was completed and
ready to move to the battle front in
France late in August.
The guns are said to throw q heav-
Ter projectile and have a greater muz-
zle velocity than any weapon ever
placed on a mobile land mounting.
The weight of the explosive used with
each projectile is many times greater
than that used in the freak German
long range gun, and in point of their
destructive force they are incompara-
BILE
The organization to man one gun re-
quires an entire train, including the
gun car itself, ammunition cars, a
crane car, and construction, sand, tim
Der, kitchen, fuel, workshop, berthing
and staff radio cars. Many of the cars
were especially manufactured by the
Standard Steel Car Company, and the
locomotives, Sc ton types, with four
pairs of drivers, were built by the
Baldwin Locomotive Works. =. i.

OWEN FOSTER FRIEND

Mr.. and Mrs. James w. Friend,
of Friendsville, were in receipt of
the following communications a
few days after the death of their
son Private Owen Foster Friend,
who died at Camp Joseph E. John
ston, Jacksonville, Fla, on the 18th
inst. of pneumonia:
Mr.. James w. Friend,
DEAR SIR: Upon receipt of your
wire inquiring about your son
Owen Friend, who died yesterday
afternoon at $50, it was learned
that message had been sent to
you bearing this sad news.
Your son had been attached to
this office but a few weeks when
stricken with influenza, which had
appeared in this camp as it had
elsewhere in this country, and was
transferred to the hospital. Ever
ready and willing to learn, your
son was faithful in the discharge
of his duties and had impressed all
with whom he came in contact by
his many excellent qualities.
The officers and men of the San
itary Detachment deeply regret his
passing from our midst and extend
to you our deepestsYmpathyin your
bereavement.
Very sincerely yours,
JOHN a. NOGLEsAN,
Major, Sanitary Corps.
From his comrades of Headquar-
tiers Detachment Group y, the fol-
lowing letter was received:
To the family of Owen Friend:
1t causes us deep regret to hear
of the sudden death of your son
and our dear comrade Owen.
We wish to say that Owen was a
fine comrade and a man as good as
could be found, and it is very hard
for the boys here to know that they
have lost a friend and comrade at
the same time, but Gods will be
done, and that is the teaching that
has to be followed by the living.
The commanding officer, Captain
Walton, and Lieut.. Parker, and
the boys of the company wish to
extend their deepest sympaty and
regrets to Mr.. and Mrs. Friend and
to assure you that they all feel
very sorry at your bereavement.
Yours sincerely,
