BATH" AS
CRIME CURE IS
FAILURE
DESPITE FOUR YEARS INNER
SION GERMAN MORALS
GROW WORSE

NEW YORK, Aug. Z. - War has
I~depravity among the German people,
according to an analysis published
by the Berlin Vorwaerts. The pa
per recalls that at the beginning of
the war prophets spoke of a steel
bath" in the waters of which the
morals of the German people would
..recuperate.
"Since Aug. 4, 1914" says the
'Vorwaerts, 1--WE have allowed the
blessings of this bath to act on us
with steadily increasing vigOr and
the result is a moral condition of
health of the German people OF
which the compilations of criminal
statistics give convincing reports.
These tell us of the steadily in
creasing number of crimes of bru-
tally, and serious crimes against
property, and a glance at any news
paper confirms the horribly in
creasing number of robberies and
burglaries. Systematically organ
lied and methodically operating
bands of robbers menace constantly
life and property of respectable
citizens.
1.-THE steel bath exerts it's effects
on everyone and splashes over the
home of the proletariat as we'll as
over the playroom in the family of
the count" concludes the Berlin
publication.

Take Care of the Dishes.

Don't smash crockery; the govern
ment Is cutting down on the manufac'
ture of ten principal clay products
from Is to to as high as so per cent.
The manufacturing program of this
industry was ordered rearranged and
divided. placing it ON the basis of war
industry.
Besides crockery, this includes face
brick, common and paving brick, terra
Gotta, roofing tile, floor and wall tile
and sanitary ware which were cur
tailed so per cent. hollow tile, sewer
pipe and drain tile % per cent, and
stOneware, with the exception of chem
ical stOneware, Is per cent. Another
order curtails the output of enamel
ware 80 per cent.
This action is declared to be the fore
runner of similar curtailment of prac'
tically every industry considered not
vital. Parts of the plants affected will
be converted for wal industries, and
men, materials and transportation will
be made available for war production.

Use splints of Wire Nettina.

A new kind of surgical splint in
which galvanized wire netting takes
he place of wood, has been put on
the market, says the Popular Science
Monthly. 1t has been tried and offers
many advantages. The steel entering
into the construction of this woven
wire splint is so tempered that 1t can
be nodded by hand. Being galvanized,
the wire is steriliZed and at the same
time welded into a single piece that
can not fray out at loose ends. AS
the splint is porous. it allows a certain
amount of evaporation and air circula-
ton to the dressing beneath, which
wood or plaster does not. The spllnt
comes rolled like a bandage and is
lighter and less bulky than wooden
splints.

Art In a Butcher Shop.

When hotels have anniversaries or
department stores end hair centuries
of service flowers are always present
in abundance and a butcher uptown
had observed this. Yesterday. when
he noted by his calendar that the next
day would end ten years of faithful
service. he decided that flowers were
in order. SO. fearing that others
would not remember the date he or
dered. They came and the butcher ar
ranged them as artistically as his art
in dangling sausages allowed him.
But when customers began TO come In

around the wreaths and Inspected
them more carefully. And then it was
that he decided flowers could never.
never become his friends. For resting
in a cluster which was supported by
the sausages was a banner reading,
"Rest in Peace and the ribbon which

DUTCH Plan
FOR TRADE
GAINS
AFTER-WAR TRADE OFFENSIVE
PLANNED BY HOL-
LAND

AMSTERDAM, Aug. 6.-An "ad-
visory commission for economic in
formation abroad" was inaugurated
today at the Hague, to direct Hol-
lands commercial offensive after
the war.
The chairman is w. F. C. l.. Van
Rappard, former minister at Wash

Netherlands Trading company;
Kroeller, shipping magnate, and
other chiefs of the departments of
trade, industry and agriculture.
j. j. Loudon, minister of foreign
affairs, addressing the commission
at his department, said that in view
of increasing impediments in the
worlds traffic only preparatory pro-
jects could be made for post bellum
trade offensive. The chief object
would be to assist the producer,
whose patriotism and initiative he
appealed to in order to find fresh
markets, especially with regard to
the colonies.
The government foresees. said
Mr.. Loudon, the immense economic
difficulties which will have to be
encountered after the war.

HEARS ECHOES OF
MARINE DEFEAT

AMSTERDAM, Aug. 5. - Count
Reventlow, writing in the Tages
Zeitung of Berlin, on the anniver-
sary of the fourth year of the war,
says:
THE beginning of the fifth year
of the war is marked in a large part
of the German press by reflections
which are OVERLOOKING with resig-
nation, melancholy and whining"
The writer continues:
THE fearful defeatism which
runs through the German public
life these days. has a perniciously
tanning effect, and, more so, be-
cause with some people the under
lying view may be received or is ex-
pressly stated by them that IL one
would end the war it would, after
all, be an easy thing to do IS one
need only join Grey and Wilson
in the league Of nations"

JOKE ON DESTROYER CAPTAIN
Spent Hours Searching for Convoy
Which 1t Turned Out Never Had
Been LOST.

Humorous stories as well as tragic
tales comes from the seas, even in wal
time. A British naval officer was re-
lating with great glee to his friends at
the club a story about one of his ma
jesty's destroyers which was detailed
to escort a transport filed with troops.
This transport, it seems, was COM
manded by a captain who, unlike most
of his class, was meek and mild. The
night was dark and dirty and naturally
no lights were showing. In the storm
and darkness the destroyer lost sight
of her convoy. Her commander, who
was one of the nervous, peppery sort,
dashed up and down and AROUND and
about but could not pick her up. or
course the naval officer blamed the cap
tain of the convoy for not keeping in
touch and said things about the sea-
manship of the conveys captain that
would not read well in print.
Finally after several hours vain
search the d~estroyer's commander
thought his best plan would be to u
for the nearest port and there see II
he could get any news of the missing
transport. The destroyer thrashed her
way through a heavy sea at a speed or
20 knots. Just as she entered the mar
Dor she picked up a %plaintive wall from
the convoy: "Need we follow you any
lOnger?'

LIVED LONG IN WILD STATE
AiredaIe Dog for Several Years Main
tanned Wild Predatory State In
the Yellowstone Park.

An instance of a dogs return to the
savage state of his wolf ancestry
came to light in February in the Vel
lowstone National park when Scout
Anderson's report of a trip into the
Buffalo Fork country contained, under
the heading of predatory animals
killed, a mention of n mountain lion,
one bobcat, four coyotes and an Aire-
dale dog.
This dog, which probably wandered
into the park from some farm or set
Element a few miles over the border,
has been living in the Yellowstone in
u wild state for several years,
Whether or not he fraternized with his
cousins the wolves and the coyotes
can not be known certainly. No doubt
he lived as they live, at the expense
of young and weaker deer and elk, and
smaller prey. Probably he lived alone,
against all animal kind as they were
against him. There are well-authenti-
Gated instances of dogs thus returning
to savage nature. 1t speaks well for
his ~tenacity and strength that, alone
VI Ills htuu III u NouLls NhCAC oh
kinds of wild animals live still their
natural lives, he survived. He may
have been u dog of good pedigree.
Anyway, the dog had been seen at
intervals for several years and was
officially classed among the animals
which, alone of all Yellowstone's ami
mails, are sought and killed because
destructive of the harmless animns,
which make of this national park the
best-populated wild-animal preserve in
the world.

quartermaster corps at Camp Ere
mont, has been commissioned a
lieutenant. in the quartermaster
corps and this will be good news to
his many friends in Goldfield. He

Catalan always had a desire to be
a soldier and his ambition to serve

Ger has now been realized. He left
Goldfield two years g and en-
tered the officers training camp at
Monterey, so that he might be ready
for the call of his country. He was
not commissioned following his

MAKES STEEL HEAL ITSELF
Remarkable Machine Designed and
Constructed in French Workshop
During the War.

One of the most remarkable ma
chimes ever built is In operation at the
great workshop in France, where the
Royal Flying corps repairs its damaged
airplanes. This machine, the only one
of it's kind, which was both conceived
and constructed in that workshop, is
described by Gustave Babin in ILLUS
tration as one that makes wounded
steel heal itself in exactly the same
way as wounded flesh heals.
It is almost automatic, is operated
by electricity and uses galvanism as
it's principle. 1t needs only n or two
men to watch it, they being guided by
a chart, showing in many colors the
piece of metal to be repaired, the ex-
act repairs necessary, the composition
of the ~galvanic bath, the current need
ed, the diameter of the wires that con-
duct 1t and the time of immersion. All
this is worked out mathematically to
the minutest fraction and the machine
does the rest.
1t is used for restoring worn or
broken parts of delicate motors, most
of which are difficult to replace. When
M. Babin saw 1t there were lying on
the table beside it parts 1t had just
repaired that would have cost $4,000
and much time to replace. In the
previous week it had turned out 300
pieces, all of great Importance, for
nothing less is cOnfided to it.

WANTED TO THANK DONORS
After This, II Would BE Folly to Say
That Sailors Do Not Appreciate
Gifts.

Mrs. Anna Steese Richardson writes
In the Woman's Home companion:
"As for knitted garments. l wish
you could have been with me N day
at a certain naval base near New
York, when the crew of q ship which
had been accidentally sunk in our
very harbor entered the chaplain's Of
fee to receive their fresh supply of
knitted garments. They had all lost
their clothing, barely escaping with
their lives.
1.-THE boys lined up like the we'll
trained sailors they were, tucked their
supplies under their arms and marched
out again, headed by an officer. But
the moment they broke ranks outside
headquarters each boy became alb
sorbed in his own particular package
of knitted garments and comfort bag,
turning the sweaters, the helmets, the
wristlets and even the bags inside out.
poking inquiring fingers into every cor
ner.
What are they looking fOr-sizesF'
I asked the young officer at my elbow.
Dear, no. said my guide with a
laugh. Letters, notes, the addresses
of the lady who knitted the garment
or filed the bag. They want to write
back and say thank you
after watching their frenzied
search for notes and addresses, moth
ing can ever make me believe that the
boys do not appreciate such gifts"

OAKLAND H|PyARD
BREAKS WORLD
RECORD
TWELVE THOUSAND TON
FREIGHTER BUILT IN "a
DAYS

OAKLAND, Cal, Aug. 6. - Built
in "a working days, the steel cargo
carrier lnvincible, $4,000 tons ca
lpacity, was launched in Oakland
harbor at noon from the Alameda
yard of the Bethlehem Shipbuilding
corporation. This is claimed by the
yard managers as a worlds record.
The speed in construction vas at
the request of Charles M. Schwab,
head of the Bethlehem corporation,
director general of the Emergency
Fleet corporation. When he raised
the blue pennant of the shipping
board, awarded for the best ship
construction for May in the Unit
ed States, v the Alameda yard,
he asked the men to get the Invinc-
ible ready for launching in 80
days. They promised to do so in
2S, but have cut four days off that
figure.
The raising of the blue pennant
was part of the ceremonies attend
ant upon the launching of four
boats from the same yard on July 4.
Fifteen hundred men have been
employed day and night on the In
l'vincible.
The I~nvincible is the tenth steel
vessel to be launched by this yard
in 1918, and the twenty-fourth to
be launched in Oakland harbor. 1t
brings the tonnage of the Alameda
yard up to a total of 10000 and of
the harbor to 243,800. This is an
average of one vessel every nine
days.

400 SHIPS RISE TO
AGAIN FACE
U-BOATS
SUNKEN MERCHANT VESSELS
RESTORED TO SERVICE
BY BRITISH

LONDON, Aug. 6. = Not all the
ships which Geramn torpedoes and
marine collisions send to the bot
tom of the sea stay there. In less
than three years more than 400
sunken merchant vessels have been
restored to service. And more
than one ship has been raised, re-
paired. sen forth on a new career,
and then sunk and raised for a
third lease on life.
This rescue work is done by the
salvage section of the British navy.
The financial value of the salvage
work is enormous. The cargoes
salved are themselves worth many
millions of dollars.
Recently a big American tanker
collided on a dark night in the Eng
lish channel with a British ship
carrying oil. There was an explo-
sion and both vessels we're quickly
swept by flames.
Salvage work on both ships be-
gan with the arrival of tugs, which,
after overcoming many difficulties,
managed to tow them close in
shore. There it was necessary to
sink them by gunfire. They are
now being brought to the surface. a
long, arduous task.
The tanker, 500 feet long and
new-built, had on board 10000 IONS
of oil, and, though she blazed for
four days. half of the cargo was
salved. When repaired, the tanker
will be returned to the United
States, not much worse for wear.
