LOSSES DOWN TO MINIMUM
Warfare Mortality Statistics Should
Give Comfort to Those With
Loved Ones at the Front.

Great as the danger, and large as
the losses in the aggregate, the indi-
vidual soldier has plenty of chances
Of coming out of the war unscathed,
or at least not badly injured.
Based on the mortality statistics OF
the allied armies, soldiers chances
are as follows:
Twenty-Five chances of coming
home to one chance of being killed.
Forty-nine chances Of recovering
from wounds to one chance of dying
from one.
One chance in 500 of losing limb.
viii live five years longer because
of physical training, is freer from dis
ease in the army than in civil life.
and has better medical care at the
front than at home.
In other wars from 10 to 10 men
died from disease to one from bullets (;
in this war one man dies from dis
ease to every ten from bullets.
For those of our fighting men who
do not escape scathless, the govern
ment under the soldier and sailor in
surance law gives protection to the
wounded and their dependents and to
the families and dependents of those
who make the supreme sacrifice for
their country.

ORLEANS PUT IN
Contested LIST
WAR DEPARTMENT :cLAssiFIES
CITY AS HAVING SHORTAGE
OF WORkMEN'S HOUSES.
SIXTY CITIES ARE AFFECTED
Steps Have Been Taken To Set New
Orleans Right With Washington OF.
fieiais-May Lose Several Big Pro-
iects Scheduled For City.
New Orleans

A
New Orleans, along with some six
ty other cities. has been classified BY
the War Department as having d
shortage Of housing and Transports
ton facilities, according to news re-
ports from Washington. The depart
ment has issued orders to all its sup
ply bureaus to see that the placing If
new war orders in those cities is
held down to a minimum.
Included with New Orleans in thu
"congested list" are such cities, New
port News, Norfolk, Portsmouth.
Pensacola, Charleston, Sheffield, and
Florence, Ala.
In New Orleans those who are in
close touch with war work believe
there must be some mistake so far
as this city is concerned. They be-
lieve that the information on which
the War Departments classification
was based must either have been in.
complete or incorrect.
Already steps have been taken to
set this city right with official Wash
ington. Unless this can be done, and
done quickly, Washington reports
state, the classification will have an
unfavorable influence on several big
projects for which this city is now
being considered. One of these pro-
jects, it is understood, is chlorine
plant to cost in the neighborhood Of
100000, 900.
Shipbuilding and the making Of
shells and ammunition are other war
activities which, it is feared would
be Influenced unfavorably were the
classification allowed to stand.
''In each of the sixty towns men,
toned" a Washington news dispatch
says, cit has been found necessary for
the Bureau of Industrial Housing of
the Labor Department to make pro-
vision to expend federal appropI1a-
tions in order to relieve shortage of
housing and transportation. The Blu
reau of Industrial Housing has large
amount of data which indicate great
CAPdIolOA III III LAC OiIA'sS
and towns mentioned.
AT the present time it is found that
the extreme congestion of living cen
ditions is SO great that the use of
beds three shifts day has become
imperative. This condition has creatt
ed an exceedingly high labor turn
over, which has made for increased
cost and delay in the completion OF
work. .
1t is admitted that War Department
contracts have to be expanded TO
these points, in spite of the known
congestion, but the bureaus are adj
vised that it should be done only
after the most careful consideration.
The bureaus are warned that the
funds at the disposal of the labor de-
partment for providing housing 70
meet the increased demands are linn
tied, and it is desired to avoid such
expenditures wherever possible.
