There are now some S,400 men, for

erican factories, who are enlisted as
soldiers, carrying on this huge work
OF keeping up the supply of guns and
ammunition. Realizing the need of
highly skilled men for this work in
France, special recruiting campaign
was carried on in many of the Ameri-
can industrial centers last winter. The
result is shown in the equipment of
the ordnance branch with a staff OF
skilled workmen comparing with the
best factory sections.
1t is largely patriotic service in
which skilled mechanics have given
up large wages to accept soldiers pay

bullets are fed into the reservoirs, the
only limit being the amount OF ammu-

each automatic rife are three men one
to fire and one to keep up the steady
feeding of ammunition.
The new type of American machine
gun makes a favorable appearance in
this array of makes from all the ma
tions. 1t is coming over in large
quantities now, and most of the Amer
can divisions now arriving come with
their machine-gun sections equipped
with the new American model. At the
training camps, the tests have given
the best results, but the real test OF
battle action is still to come as most
of the divisions on the fighting line
obtained their machine-gun equipment
before the new model was ready.
In this same arsenal one could COM
pare the rifles and bayonets of all the
combatant troops. The American
bayonet looked like long, sharp
edged knife But the French bayonet

meant for stabbing. The Russian bay
onet has no sharp point but is like a
screwdriver with fiat edge, cutting

in huge parks and ammunition dumps

shell are very orderly in arrangement

CENTRAL FRANCE, Sept. 90
American ingenuity is fast making it
self felt in the construction of field
guns in the vast workhouse of the
ordnance branch of the American
army here
One of the American designs which
has won strong favor with the French
experts is the "split trailer" which ex-
tends back of the gun from the wheels
down to the ground. From the earli-
est days of gunnery this trailer has
been a single piece. But the Ameri-
cans have split it in two from the
ground up, so that two great legs
spread out backward from cannon.
The results have been astonishing.
permitting an ordinary field piece to
be elevated to 80 degrees, or almost
straight up.
The American design has now been
adopted as the standard French model,
and it is going into all the new guns
made at French arsenals. Official pho
tographs made by the ordnance branch
are now going forward for public ex-
hibition in America showing this split
trailer firing at an elevation of 73.40
degrees.
Here could be seen also every form
Of the death-dealing machine-gun
which became such formidable wea.
pom in the present war.
This is an age of mechanical war
fare" said the officer as he pointed
out the different types, French, Eng
lish, American, as well as German and
Austrian. There were no machine
guns used in the civil war, only few
in the Spanish-American and Boer
wars; more in the Russo-Japanese and
Balkan wars, and now they have de-
veloped to foremost place as an ef-
fective and deadly means of warfare. -
Build Machine Guns.
Most of the nations are making two
forms of these machine guns, the
heavy type weighing about 80 pounds,
mounted on a tripod and drawn by a
mule. and the lighter automatic rifle
weighing about Is pounds, fired from
the shoulder like an ordinary rife, and
carried by hand as it is not much
