COLLECTING PHOTOS OF
MEN LOST IN SERVICE
Navy Department Desires Pictures
of Men Who Have Made the SUI
preme Sacrifice for Country.

Through the bureau of navigation
the Navy department is now collect
ing photographs of all men of the
service who have lost their lives in
service against the enemy. To per-
petuate the memory of these men who
have made the sacrifice their pictures
are to be preserved in the various
training stations of the country. Sec
rotary Daniels has requested that
these photographs be sent to the de-
partment by the next of kin.
As rapidly as these pictures are re-
ceived copies are made and the orig
inals returned to the owners. A pho
tograph of each man is then forwarded
to the training station where he be-
gan his career in the service. There,
memorial gallery of honor, or a he
ro's corner, is formed so that for all
time the faces of the men of the Navy
who have made the supreme sacrifice
may be honored by the youths of the
future sent to the station for train
ing.
Relatives of the men who have been
lost in the present war who have not
received requests for pictures are
asked to mail them to the department
for this memorial. All pictures should
be securely wrapped after they have
been marked with the name, branch
of service and training station the
young man entered after enlistment.
These should be addressed to the Re-
cruiting Division, Bureau of Naviga-
ton, Navy Department, Washington,
ID. C. When copied, the photographs
will be returned to the sender with
one of the copies.

family TO have exemption from tax
for one servant; all additional female
servants, from 10 per cent to 100 per
cent on all over four.
The statement from the treasury
department accompanying the list
pointed out that there are two sources
of revenue from taxation, namely, a
tax on retail sales and tax on man
ufacturers and producers. The object
of imposing taxes upon such articles
as are contained in the list, it is stat
ed, is mot only to raise revenue, but
to discourage wasteful consumption
and unnecessary production"
The committee spent all of today in
going over the list, but reached no
conclusion as to any Of the items.
The effect upon women's and mems
styles, if the proposed tax schedule
were adopted, would be startling, to
say the least.
All jewelry would be banned, canes
would disappear or pay heavy tax,
and clothing and shoes would be re-
stricted in price far below what is
now paid for them. A great many
women would find it hard to limit
themselves to a pair of shoes costing
not over Sc, or to hat costing less
than $40. But the treasury depart
ment's view of it is that this is war
and Injuries must disappear or bear
the heavy burden of taxation.

THE GREATEST MILITARY
FEAT OF ALL THE AGES

The 100000 soldiers now going a
cross every month constitute Ameri-
cas- answer to the blow the Germans
launched in March. They also crush
the Kaiser's last hope that his sub
marines might win the war. AS each
regiment unfurls the Stars and Stripes
on European soil, it brings new
pledge of American support to the
Allies. But this pledge of our blood
is not enough. A strong spirit can
not strike except through a strong
body. To maintain the morale at the
height needed for victory in 1919,
France, Italy, and Britain must have
food, more food, steel, coal and raw
materials of endless variety. Also,
when our army reaches 100000 men
and goes into action, it must have an
unceasing stream of food, transport,
ordinance, ammunition and equipment.
Without these supplies in abundance
and on schedule time it cannot fight
efficiently, and inefficient fighting la
Russian means that hundreds of thou
sands will be sacrificed in vain.
An expeditionary force Of three mil
lion, even of two or more million men
operating three thousand miles from
its base is the greatest military feat
ever undertaken. To carry it out sue
cessfully, requires the complete mob
ilization of American man-power in
order, first, to produce all war essen
tials in sufficient quantities and, sec
ond. to transport these essentials to
their destination on time.
As yet the American forces in Eu-
rope are only partially equipped
They still depend upon France and
England for artillery, machine guns
and aircraft. Only a few of them
have had to replace equipment used
up in battle. When million and q
half American soldiers go into action
and call for shells, airplanes, boots
uniforms, guns, the wherewithal to
carry on, the real test of national pre-
paredness will come.-July Sunset

ENTERS ARMY WITH

Manhattanite Stays There,

From Eden.

Back from Baltimore yesterday came
hattanite-whose name, for obvious
reasons Thereafter will understand can
not be disclosed-practically broke into
the draft army earlier in the week, even
though the draft age is fully score of
years behind him.
The Manhattanite. who for tech meal
reasons may as we'll be known here as
Pop. decided suddenly last Monday. as
his son was starting off with a batch of
New York lads on their way to don khaki
at Camp Meade. near Baltimore, TO ac-
company the crowd at least as far as
Baltimore. And at Baltimore Pop de-
cided that. so long as his brave SON
lips could never touch liquor after enter
ing the army. 1t wouldn't be a bad idea
to treat Son and four of Sons COM
panions to a final, farewell nip of the
hard stuff
one drink led to anott err, as drinks
sometimes do. Within two hours father
and the boys were ossifed When they
got back to the Union Station the tracks
where their train had been standing were
noticeabiy occupied. SO father and the
boys. deciding that the war was over, re-
turned to the nearest stretch OF ma
hogany.
As the day and evening advanced they
reached the stage where they unani-
mously decided 10 declare war again.
| Loading themselves into a taxicab they
riccocheted out to Camp Meade Grog
experts OF long experience untangled the
sleeping mass from the taxicab some
time later at Camp Meade and mercifully
shovelled them aboard cots to permit
them 10 sleep it off, father included.
Evidently father liked the camp life.
At any rate he fell into line for break
fast when the younger men were
marched of TO breakfast the next morn
ing. Then he stuck close to Son when
the rockies. stlll in multi, were lined up
TO be inoculated against typhoid. Pop
being as thoroughly inoculated as the
drafted men.
Then for days, or until last Friday,
Pop made good in the draft army He
liked 1t so much that he protested with
misty eyes when army officers, who had
heard the gossip floating about concern
ing the presence of the undrafted Pop in
, camp, hauled Pop before the powers that
be. He wanted to stay where he was,
Pop protested.
Nothing doing" said headquarters,
! or words to that effect. Get right out

| And yesterday Afternoon Pop came
| back 10 Broadway and started to Ticker
up again with the hope of trying to rid

Everything is being done to make the

NEW SHIP GROUNDS
LEAVING THE WAYS
The Nahma, $500 Tons, Runs
Into Mud Bank.

The $500 ton freighter MAMMA went
down the ways from the Downey Ship
building Corporation at Arlington. Staten
island yesterday afternoon so fast that
she broke the controlling ropes and
grounded on a mud bank 1900 feet out
from the ways. The new vessel was not
damaged.
An investigation disclosed that the
Nahmas stern was about forty feet on
the mud bank and the remaining $50
feet OF her length in the channel. AT
this particular point six of the pipe
lines OF the Standard Oil Company cross
from Jersey. The Nahmas keel rests
on one of these lines of pipe. Shipping
men said a west wind would swing her
around into position seriously endan-
gering the other five lines.
There is only four feet of water on the
mud bank at low water. but IT was be-
lieved last night that the tide would
rise high enough early this morning to
enable the Downey Company to pull the
new vessel into the thirty foot channel
A close watch was kept on the situation
all night.
With 1000 spectators cheering, Miss
Aubrey Eaton, daughter of DR.. Charles
A. Eaton of the National Service Sec
ton OF the Shipping Board. christened
the NcSsel as sne started uoWn tne ways.
The name was selected. as are all names
OF the merchant marine. by Mrs. Wood

ship TO be launched at these yards.
The MAMMA Is of the Ferris standard
ICED steel construction, 800 feet over all,
Sc feet wide and 80 feet deep. She is
