Ffteen, Each Of Thirty or

American Regul ting Base, Ad-

automatic train" is one of the
strange devices which has sprung
out of the war, and there is nothing
quite like it in the whole range OF
railway transportation 1t has been
developed by the American military
authorities here as one of the neces-
sites of keeping up an automatic
daily supply of food, forage and all
requirements. to every unit Of the
American expeditionary force in
France. To do this with unvarying
regularity each day, so that every
man in every division stretching
over vast area along 800 miles OF
front, would have his daily needs
supplied was a huge problem.
The only solution was to secure
absolute uniformity, or a standard
ization of trains by which the make
up would be automatic day after
day. And out of this has come the
automatic train" of the American
army, which is one of the wonders
of American organization.
Like Great Puzzle.
Watching the make-uo of~fhe
automatic trains" as they go for
ward to the American divisions on
the fighting front, is like watching
some gigantic jig-saw puzzle, for
there is the same fitting together of
confused parts, until at last all the
pieces form a completed whole OF
fifteen of these so-called automatic
trains" 50 cars to train, each train
moving off to one of the American
divisions.
Here at a small interior village Of
the American advance force is the
center from which the automatic
trains move out daily. The place is
we'll forward in the advance zone,
just far enough away from the
fighting to be out of reach of hostile
raids and yet near enough to permit
the supplies to move forward with
the greatest facility.
One Thousand Cars Daily.

a large amount OF casual murder

been reckless destruction of all

automatic trains, and later there was
an opportunity to see the trains

follows:
Two cars of refrigerated fresh

Two cars of fresh bread.
Seven cars OF food comprised in

Four cars of fuel for cooking.
Fourteen car OF forage for horses.

In addition each division has
varying wants of clothing. ammuni-

be in the midst OF the fighting or

These varying clements are added
to each train, according to the needs
