SKILLED MEN REQUIRED
Mining and Chemical Engineers
Wanted by Uncle Sam.
Census Of Professions Shows $500 In
Mining and $1,000 In Chemical
Industries Classified.

The bureau Of mines, department OF
the interior, at the request of Uncle
Sans council of national defense, has
completed a census of mining engi-
neers, metallurgists, and chemists,
with the result that 1900 men engaged
In mining and $4,000 men engaged in
various chemical industries have been
classified according to the character of
work in which each one claims prof.
cheney. The classification includes not
only specialists In various branches of
chemistry and mining, but includes as
well a classified list of men who have
had experience in foreign countries. 1t
is not the purpose of this census to
enable the bureau to act as clearing
house for technical men in obtaining
commercial positions.
Van II. Manning, director of the bu-
reau of mines, explains that "the war
Of today Is one in which chemists and
engineers play far greater role than
ever before. The products of the
mines, furnaces, factories, and chemi.
cal plants are being so rapidly consum-
ed that the highest possible skill is re-
quired to keep pace with the destruc
ton everywhere apparent. In the or
ganization of great army, many
classes Of specialists are needed"
The work of conducting the census
was carried out In cooperation with
the American Institute of Mining Engi-
neers and the American Chemical So
ciety.
A circular letter was addressed to
approximately 5000 members of the
American Institute of Mining Engf-
neers and 1900 members Of the Ameri-
can Chemical society. This letter re-
Quested that each recipient all out and
return a card accompanying the let
ter, and make himself a committee Of
one to see that every chemist and en-
gineer of his acquaintance likewise
filled out a card. The number Of re-
plies received by the bureau was ap-
prorimately 1900 men engaged In the
mining industry and $4,000 In the
chemical industry.

CHANGE IN EXPORTS SHOWN
Proportion Of Wholly or Partly Manu-
featured Goods Greatly Increased
Since War Started.

Seventy-eight per cent Of the more
than six billion dollars worth of
American goods exported In the fiscal
year 1917 consisted Of wholly or part
ly manufactured goods. In 1914, the
last normal year before the war, the
percentage of such goods exported
was only so, according to statement
issued by Uncle Sans bureau Of for
eign and domestic commerce.
In 1914 exports of manufactures
ready for consumption were valued at
S724, COS, 900, or 81 per cent Of the total
exports, while In 1917 their value
reached $2943. PIP, or Al per cent
of the total. Manufactures for fur
Their use In manufacturing were ex-
ported in 1914 to the value of 1874
224.210, OF 10 per cent of the total,
whereas 81. 191, 1877 ,957 worth, or 10 per
cent of the total, was exported In
1917. The exports of foodstuffs part
ly or wholly manufactured amounted
to S293, 21S,336 in 1914, or 1914 per
cent of the total, and in 1917 to $780,
O37, 1884, or IL per cent of the total,

Specialists in Nutrition to Make
Survey at Every Army Camp
in the Country.
TO PLAN HEALTHFUL MEALS
Work VIII Be Carried on Under d.
rection Of Special Division, Or
oanized In Office of Sur
Qeon General.

A food division has been organized
In the office of the surgeon general of
the army to safeguard the nutritional
interests of Uncle Sans army. This
work, carried on in cooperation with
the quartermaster department, will in
clude food surveys of each camp con-
Quoted by specialists In nutrition, to-
gether with inspection of food received
for soldiers rations, and study of
methods of preparation.
The idea is to carry the work furth-
er than prevention of sickness through
improper food 1t is to recommend
changes to provide more healthful and
appetizing meals. There will be spe-
cial attention to food economy based
on the fact that ''palatibility and prop
er cooking are great factors In deter
mining the economical utilization Of
food In the physiological, no less than
In the financial, sense" as stated In
the outline of the purposes Of the new
division.
Many Officers to Do Work.
Some 30 or 60 commissioned officers
will be engaged In the work of max
Ing food surveys at the camps, with
about twice their number Of enlisted
men to assist In the work. The work
is under the direction of Maj. John r.
Murlin, formerly of Cornell University
Medical College, New York city. Work
ing with him are Captains Caspar MIL
Ter of Philadelphia. Frank @. Gephart
Of New York. and Lieuts. A. w. Thorn
as Of New York, and N. p. Bluther-
wick of Washington. Many other
Psychologists and biochemists have ex-
pressed their willingness to accept
service In the food division and will
be commissioned as their services are
required.
Information desired will be obtained
by nutritional surveys Of the camps
both here and abroad. A survey party
will consist of four commissioned Off
GERS and eight enlisted men who will
serve as assistants and clerks.
Will Give instruction.
One member of the party, who will
act as its director, will be compe-
tent psychologist and physiological
chemist. Another will be thoroughly
familiar with the best methods Of In
speeding foods from a standpoint OF
nutritional value, who while In tbs
camp will be able to instruct the com
pany cooks in the economical man
agement of their kitchens. A third
will be able to give instruction to the
company officers in the relative nu'
tritional value of different foods and
guide them in the construction Of theil
menus. Such lessons and conferences
however, are secondary to the main
purpose of the survey and will be
subject to the pleasure of the com
handing officer. The main purpose is
to be able to describe in exact physi
illogical terms the way In which tht
soldiers are fed, with view to secur
ing perfect nutrition at the least pos
sible expense.

an additional 26o,ooo tons as pro
vided for under the terms of the
original agreement made with the
Cuban sugar planting interests. An
nouncement was made to this effect
after a meeting of the committee yes
terday afternoon. The option under
the terms of the agreement had to
be exercised before June IS.
The negotiations for the purchase
of the Cuban sugar crop and the ar
rangements for financing the needs
of the Cuban planters during the
period Of grinding and marketing the
cane constitute one Of the interest
ing side lights Of war finance. After
the international Committee had COM
pleted the deal to buy the Cuban
crop of sugar it was found necessary
to provide money to finance the
planters, and finally s100,o00,000
revolving export credit was arranged
by New York bankers which is now
in operation. The 2,500,o0O tons Of
sugar bought for this country and
the Allies was purchased on a basis
of 4.6 cents a pound for raw sugar
delivered on shipboard in the PORTS
Of Cuba.
According to a recent estimate the
crop this year approximates 3.e20,375
tons, of which all but less than a
million tons will be taken for the
United States and Allies.

In d u s trial
Cotton

The action of yesterdays cotton
market reflected continued reports of
an improving tYade demand and a dis
position to cover short contracts in
advance of the government crop re-
port which is expected next month.
There was nothing in the news to dis
courage the expectation of a compara-
lively high condition figure. But the
and crop advces to bring in more gen.
eral aggressive selling in itself served
to stimulate the covering movement,
as it suggested that the market had
pretty we'll discounted the publication
of figures that indicated a decline. At
any rate, offerings were readily abb
sorbed by a moderate early decline, and
July rallied from 24.35 to 24.9O, clos
ing at 24.8S, with the general list clos
ing firm at net advance of % to 38
points.
The opening decline was in response
to easier cables, the good weather in
ly report unfavorablc to prices from
the Weather Bureau to-day. First
prices were to 16 points lower, and
the active months sold about II to 90
points under Mondays closing figures
during the first few minutes. Covering
was active enough to absorb these of
ferings at the low level, however, and
the market soon firmed up on the spot
news.
The highest prices of the day were
reached in the late trading, with ac-
tive months showing net advance of
30 to Al points and a recovery Of about
100 to 180 points from the recent low
level. No exports were reported.
Southern spot markets were unchanged
to so points higher.

Cereals

Wheat.--The wheat position is now
going through the period of "between
seasons" Seldom, If ever, have stocks
on hand been as low as at the present
time, and the outlook for the new crop
has rarely been excelled. The food ad-
minizxration continues to admonish
consumers TO limit the consumption of
wheat as far as possible, in order that
there shall be no curtailment in the
export movement to our allies in Eu-
rope and to our army. The use of
substitutes is encouraged, and a new
ruling by the Food Board makes IL
compulsory to use 10 per cent Of corn
meal in all bread mixtures. Weather
conditions over the West continue
generally favorable for the new crop,
and harvesting operations have begun
in Texas. Within another month new
wheat will be obtainable in moderate
volume from the Southern belt, and
from then on there will be steady in
crease. in the volume of offers. If the
crop turns out as we'll as present in
dications seem TO point, there is every
reason to believe that this years yield
will be OF sufficient volume to take
care OF home needs and provide "a
very large surplus for export.
Corn.-The corn market displayed a
firmer tone early in tho day, with q
fairly active demand. Subseouentlv.

On the increased activity of the late
hour prices rallied sharply in some in
stances, showing actual gains as against
the severe reversals of the forenoon
United States Steel closed at loss
of nominal faction. Sumatra made
up the greater part of its loss and
rails were at their best.
More stringent conditions prevailed
in the money market, presumably in
anticipation of the heavy shifting of
loans due to the 20 per cent payment
on the third Liberty issue.

The strength of rails and renewals
Of pressure against industrials and
specialties were the sharply defined
features of yesterdays active but un-
stable stock market.
These divergent movements were re-
garded as the direct result Of such re-
cent developments as the railroad rate
Increase and the governments pro-
posed taxation programme, the latter
bearing most heavily upon war shares
and Kindred issues.
Over all, however, hung the foreign
situation bulletins from the Western
battlefront contributing to the scat
tered liquidation and giving further
encouragement to the short interest.
Selling was at its height just before
noon, when steels, equipments and spec
ulative issues as a whole reacted two
