SCARCITY OF TOOLS.

The nations aircraft programme collapsed be-
cause those directing the work failed to allow
sufficient time for the patterning of the intri-
cate tools necessary for their production before
starting to manufacture, according to j. B.
Doan, of Cincinnati, president of the National
Machine Tool Builders Association, speaking al
the annual convention of that body.
Right now there is a scarcity of large size
machine tools which apparently will shortly be
urgently needed to speed up war machinery,
said the speaker. ut is obvious, therefore, that
since it is not possible to produce them over
night, programme should be laid out far in
advance possible, that when production is
demanded proper machinery will be in readi-
ness"
Unless there is big speeding up in the pro-
duction of machine tools of large size immedi-
ately there will be a serious delay in 1919, when
the big ordnance programme will occur" said
Major II. III. Reed, of the Ordnance Bureau. The
Major announced that the War Department is
preparing to establish two mammoth ordnance
factories at Pittsburg and Philadelphia in the
next few months which will require $4,000, 900
worth of large machine tools for big calibre guns
and an additional S5,o00,0o0 worth of smaller
tools in reserve for small arms OF this amount
but 81, 100000 worth are ''in sight, he said.

TO PLANT WALNUTS.

The Boy Scouts of America all over the coun-
try have been told by James E. West Chief
Scout Executive, they are not to stop with the
mere locating and reporting of black walnut
trees to the government for airplane propellers
and gun stocks as requested by President Will
son, but to follow the suggestion of Daniel C.
Beard, National Scout Commissioner, that.scout-
masters will see that black walnut trees are
planted to take the place of the ones that must
be sacrificed to the needs of war. Mr.. West
calls upon the heads of the 1927 troops of
scouts located in every town and city of the
United States to remember that black walnut
as a material used in airplanes is going to be
an important factor in after-the-war civilization,
as air traffic will by then be greatly developed.
For every tree chopped down five black walnut
trees are to be planted for the safety of future
America.
