PROVISIONS FOR BUILDING

Washington, D. c., AIN. AS the
first step in government assistance OF
railroad financing, presidents of rail
roads were requested by Interstate
Commerce Commissioner Daniels to.
day to telegraph him Immediately the
amount of capital required for this
year, and also for the first six months
of the year.
Must Detail Purposes.
This action was taken at the direc.
ton Of Director General McAdoo. Rail.
road presidents were asked to detail
the precise purposes for which funds
will be needed to meet maturing Sc
curities not already provided for, to
nay for improvements, betterments,
and construction work already con-
tracted for, and parts finished. Roads
were requested also to show what
proportion of improvements already
started can be stopped now without
detriment.
- - ~ New Construction.
- Another item sought by Commits
siOner Daniels is an approximate es-
Innate of capital necessary to pro-
vide for new construction work i'm
provements, betterments, etc, includ-
ing additional terminals and new
equipment. Presidents were asked to
specify what part of their financial
requirements during this year are not
absolutely necessary for protection Of
property or maintenance of earnings.
A definite statement is also sought
as to the character of securities which
each company had planned to issue.
Additional information may be sought
by the Interstate Commerce commits
sion or the director-general later.
The railroad administration finan.
cial plans have included the purchas-
ing of the government fund of securi-
ties to lie issued by railroads under
government operation. This plan is
only tentative, however, and depends
on the action of congress on the pend
ing railroad bill.

Chemistry Recognized Science.

Chemistry has been accorded an al
most formal recognition as the science
at the heart Of modern warfare. The
British ministry Of reconstruction has
pointed out that Germany selected the
chemical industry for especial nurture
in making it's war preparations, es-
pecially that part Of the industry deal
ing with coal tar derivatives, in which
field the imperial government gradual
" won, a. temporary world monopoly.
The minister of reconstruction has ap-
pointed committee of six chemists
to investigate the situation in England
and to recommend plan for making
the British chemical industry self-sus-
tanning and equal to any call upon it
during and after the war.

Arrive and Depart.

ARRIVALS" and "departures" have
definite place in French trench philol-
ogy. When the American troops first
entered the trenches their French COM
rades were very anxious to have them
distinguish accurately between the
noise of "arrives" and "departs.' Il
thought they We're talking harbol
clearances at first" said one Yankee
lad. "Then I heard low, whining
sound and shell exploded behind us.
'Un arrive,' said my companion. He
signified that it was present from
the Germans. Soon there was louder,
sharper sound. 1t was responsive
roar from our own batteries. I'm de.
part he said with great satisfaction.

SPEAKING OF MAN-POWER.

An army of 100000 men when
>4Ner we need it, and that without go-
ing outside of class 1 of the selective
service regulations! Backing this up,
a constant increment of from 100000
to 100000 new men per! When 1t
comes down to man power, Uncle Sam
is still the giant of them all.
A story from Washington giving
the facts as they have been carefully
arrived at by war department experts
is enlightening. 1t shows that there
already over 2, 1877, 900 men Under Uncle
Sans orders. This including men re-
Gently called. Some of these last may
not be in camp yet, but they are on
their way there.
This means that, following Secre
tary Bakers plan for an army total
in 100000, for this year, we have
less than 100000 to go.
Our washington correspondent
shows also that there are on the wa
departments waiting list" approx
mately 100000 class and physical
ly fit men to fill the gap between wha
we have now and what Baker has call
ed for Half of them will do that
Beside these 2,O0O,0OO-all of then
m en- who registered last year and VIII
have already filled out their qeus
tionnaires-it is authoritatively est
mated that there are another 10000
or 100000 young chaps, counting GU
those who are physically unfit or VIII
will receive deferred classification 70

to service by recent legislation.
Our grand total of men already in
the army and those physically fit who
come under the specifications of class
/ of the selectfye service regulations is
over 100000 Which is 100000
more than Baker says he can use to
the the best advantage today.
Some day we may need all of these
men. Probably we will if the war
last longer enough. But if the day
when we do need them comes a year
hence, then there will be a further
reserve of 100000 or 100000 piled up,
For that is the rate we grow them at
in this country.
These figures are of Tremendous
interest to every man, woman and
child in America They would be of
Tremendous interest to kaiser Bill,
too, if we could only get them to him
How much of Americas man-power
will the kaiser and his aids have to
see with their own eyes and feel with
their own flesh-by the bayonet route
before they believe in it? A good
deal, is the only safe guess. So our
problem, aside from the man-power
problem is to mobilize our millions,
to equip them with the best war tools
that there are anywhere, to get them
"over there" and finally to support
them to the last dollar and the last
limits of sacrifice "over here"

RED CROSS WEEK.

We have with US Mr.. and Mrs. Red
| Cross Week. There is no more I'M
portant week among the weeks of the
year What the American Red Cross
is doing in this war Is known over
the world. We are not acting for our
own, especially, we are acting for all
our associates in the war Come re-
ports from Russia from Italy, from
Rumania, from every front" in the
war praising the Red Cross workers
and praising America. We read let
tiers from our boys, that is enough for
us we know what they think of the
| Red Cross They tell us this organi-
cation is saving humanity, it is CIV
ing them comforts they could get in
no other way. 1t is saving lives and
limbs 1t is making over men. 1t is
sending men back into battle; sending
men home to live a happy and useful
life who, without this aid, timely CIV
en-, would have died of wound and suf-
ferings
The Red Cross is practically, gov
eminent institution. It's officers and
managers are among the highest type
of men and women in the country. 1t
is economically managed. 1t has vol
unteer workers in every community in
the United States.
But is is useless to dwell upon all
this. We all know what a wonderful
institution it is and what wonderful
work it is doing. We must know on
ly that the Red Cross needs and must
have $100,000,O00 and more for its war
fund. This money will be used in no
other way than for war purposes. HUI
mainly is in distress Humanity calls
for full subscriptions There Is no
question but the spirit of America will
be moved in the right direction. The
spirit which dominates the volunteer
workers of the Red Cross is the spirit
which moves America, from highest
to lowest Great business men, great
organizers, who might be employed in
massing more millions are volunteer
workers in the Red Cross, giving of
their time and experience Women
who have the care of households and
families, girls who have the care of
business, are spending their every pos
sible hour in Red Cross work. Recog
nizing this spirit, is there any question
about getting the funds
Georgia, rich, prosperous Georgia,
is expected to give according to its
population and it's wealth. Georgia
will we believe exceed it's quota. Red
Cross workers expect that this state
will contribute $2,O00,0O0 If each
state does us well, the 500 100000 will
be 25 per cent oversubscribed. An
is needed On account
of the fighting on the western front
which calls for more money than the
Red Cross anticipated when announc-
ing its needs. Assuredly Georgia will
do its part

A COMPARISON.

In all earnestness, it may be stated
that the people of this part of the
country have not felt the pinch of
war. In some respects they do net
know the war is on. Indeed with
many times are mere prosperous, they
have more to eat and more to wear
tt1n they ever did, and the, have not
the slightest conception OF what it is
to starve and suffer.
Suppose they lived in France where
there is death and desolatibm ON every
hand Suppose they lived i'm England,
where all eating is on sa1rF ration
basis, which limits the Individual to
just enough and no more Suppose
they lived IN Serbia, Roumasria or
Belgium, where they is little OF any
thing left, and poverty stalks every
where, a. grim and relentless spectre.
Suppose they lived in Russia, where
the peasants are proud to MUNICH
small piece of hard, stale, black bread,
where hams, if obtainable at ALL sell
for three hundred dollars each Sup
pose they lived IN Turkey, once one of
tie cheapest Of all countries in which
to live, where prices are staggeringly
high. Read this, for instance:
ROME, April 1S.-Berne re-
ports that COnstantinople is re-
Juced to economic ruin. The Ger
mans, with the consent Of prom
fnent Young Turks, have requi-
sitioned the food, while uncUn-
trolled speculation makes the city
the most expensive in the world to
live in. A two pound loaf Of
bread costs $500; meat is $500 a
pound, -four $500, potatoes, $500
butter SIG, and sugar $40. Eggs
are rare ae $50 cents apiece,
chickens are, SO each, and shoes
from $100 to, $500 pair. Al mans
suit costs from $500 to $500
That is the effect of the war across
the waters. Those are the conditions
under which millions of people are
living, people who have no more at
stake than we have, if as mach.
Yet there are some wfo complain
| because they are not permitted to
glut themselves with wheat biscuits.
There are some who cuss the gov
eminent and denounee every mer-
chant as a profiteer, because prices
are somewhat highr than. they used
to be. There are maleontents wlro
really think that times here are hard
by comparison. Why, they do not even
appreciate the fact that their grand
fathers and fathers during the time of
the War Between the States expert
enced ordeals and made sacrifices the
like of which we can hardly appre-
ciate today.
There is no question bat that the
people of the South, and. indeed. OF
the entire United States are very hap
PLY situated. when you think of the
terrible conditions that exist among
the unfortunate men and women
children beyond the Atlantic We
should think of their fate, and then be
! more content with our own lot.

The Copper Era man in his rounds for news came in possession of some facts that can appropriately be men, toned under this caption. Clifton has reason to be proud of the many patriotic ladies that are doing all in their power for the comfort and cheer of the men who are sent to fight democracy's battles. Tirelessly and willingly are these angels of mercy performing their duties in Red Cross and other war work, which is indeed most creditable. and it is re- gretted that all cannot be mentioned individually. One who has been most energetic in looking after the comforts
