AMERICAN WAR EFFORTS
GREATLY STIR ALL SPAIN
Famous Writer Tells People Truth About
Magnitude of Our Endeavor-- VIC
lently Attacked BY Pro-
Germans.

Washington, Aug. 6.--Al Spain is
stirred by series of articles on the mag
nitude of American effort in the war ap-
pearing in "a. B. c., strongly pro-
German newspaper, according to cable
received yesterday by the committee on
public information from its representa-
tive in Madrid.
The articles are contributed by Jose
Martinez RIM, novelist and literary crit
ic, who is the first Spanish writer to
visit the American front. Only his
recruitment literary position has infiu-
enced the paper to publish the articles,
says the dispatch, and he is being yio-
lently attacked by other pro-German pa
pers.
RIM, who uses the pen name "Azorin"
has declared, according to the dispatch,
that he win use tie full strength of his
pen to make his country "know the truth
about the United States" He adds:
"In 1898 we suffered disastrous dis
illusionment because of our own igno-
rance. 1t shall not occur again if / can
prevent it. The future of Spain is bound
up with the future Of America and this
truth must be recognized"
Madrid, Aug. 6.--The government has
appointed General de Montev"rde to head

active kind of service and conse-
quently an immense increase in the
output of ammunition for that branch
of the service was necessary. The
workshops, Mr.. Kellaway said, rail-
lied magni1icently and by the end of
April the weekly output had increas-
ed 500 per cent. The production of
machine guns, small arms and rifles
increased proportionately.
All this, Mr.. Kellaway added, was
accomplished in spite of the fact that
for the month previous to the often
sive an average of 3,460 men were re-
leased per week for the army and,
for the first month of the offensive
this figure was increased to=8 200 per
week.
At a meeting for enrolling women
for the Land Army, Mr.. Kellaway said
that since the beginning of the war
there had been two great pieces of
constructive work. One was<that of
munitions and the other agriculture.
With regard to the former the women
had done splendidly. The excavation
work at one of the most important

be decent Are you going to keep the
promises you made ne? Will you
stick to them, or do you intend to
keep changing your mind all the
time? Now let's have a real under
standing. The thing we Americans
particularly pride ourselves on is
keeping our word. We do it as indi-
viduals and as a nation. We refuse
to deal with people as equals who do
not do this. You might as well I'M
derstand now that We can do no bus
mess with each other unless I can de-
pend on your promises.

answered. 1.-The Germans, are to
blame for stopping that train. The
German Chief of Staff has just ar
rived and is making big fuss, say
ing that we are too easy with the
French and English and that we
must not let them go away. He says
that we must keep for hostages. It
was his interference that did this
"'Now, Talaat,' 1 said, you have
got to have some one to advise you
in your relations with foreigners. You
must make up your mind whether You
want me or the German Staff. Don't

you place yourself entirely in the
hands of the Germans? The time
may come when you will need me
against the Germans.
eff you let the Germans win this
point today I said, you are practi-
cally in their power. You are now
the head of affairs, but you are still a
civilian, represented by Enver and the
German staff, overrule your orders?
Apparently that is what has happen
ed today. If you submit to it, you
will find that they will be running
things from now on. The Germans
will put this country under martial
law; then where will you civilians
be?'
ct am willing to help you,' he re-
piled.

ton, where We found the disconsolate
passengers sitting around waiting for
a favorable word. When 1 told
them that the train would leave in a
few minutes, their thanks and graft
tude were overwhelming"

women were weeping and the children
screaming, while platoon of Turkish
soldiers, commanded by an undersiz-
ed popinjay of major, was driving
everybody out Of the station with the
flat sides of their guns.
81 jumped into my automobile and
went to the Sublime Porte, where
Talaat, the ruler of Turkey, usually
had his headquarters. Finding no
one there, 1 told the chauffeur to
drive direct to Talaat's house. He
came and sat down with a good natur-
ed grin and began to make excuses.
"'Well, Talaat' I said, realizing
the time had come for plain speaking,

acting? You told me few hours
ago that you had decided to treat the
English and French decently and you
asked me to publish this news in the
American and foreign press. at

told them how splendidly you were

TaIismans and AmuIete.

The truth Is that deep down in the
complex nature Of most Of us there is
a certain regard for the occult, of
which, however, our higher intelligence
may disprove, we find 1t dific1lt to rid
ourselves entirely.
While the word mascot has long
been common in Provence and Gas
cony to denote something which
brings good fortune to a person or
household, 1t is only within the last
30 years or so that 1t has passed into
common use in Britain. 1t owed its
introduction largely to Edmund Au-
dran's well-known comic opera ia
Mascotte." ,2,.e
But only the word is modern. The
use Of talismans, amplets and charms,
which were really prototypes of the
mascot, goes back to a very remote
age. The ancient Egyptians wore
amulets fashioned in the shape Of
gods, men, animals, and insects. The
stones in the shape Of beetles often
found in Egyptian tombs gave cour-
age to the wearer. Figures Of frogs
were also held III particularly high re-
pute. '''f@G~'&

MUNITIONS WORKS

Great BRITAIN

Bedford; England, June 2S.---The
munition factories of Great Britain
responded nobly to the heavy demand
for increased fighting material result
ing from the present great German
offensive, according to F. G. Kella-
way, Parliamentary Secretary to the
Ministry of Munitions. Deliveries of
guns, he told the Liberal club, ex-
ceeded by 80 per cent, while deliv-
cries of gun carriages were so per
cent. greater than before.
There was a great demand for in
creased supplies of particular kind
of shell, but there was sufficient on
hand to supply this from stock. The
horse artillery after long inaction,
suddenly was called upon for a most
