latter base. however. two well built
lines run northward into Austria. The
chief line runs from Milan to Venice.
thence through Udine to Vienna the
distance from Venice to Vienna being
approximately 800 miles. From Vienna
to Berlin the mileage is only 400 miles.
Cars Necessary.
On the assumption that the first
movement OF troops from Italy would
be 5000 men. which might consist of
three infantry divisions, one cavalry
division, and a brigade OF artillery
and other units, railway experts esu-
mate that the rolling stock require
ments would require 6.2Z9 cars in 36s
trains. each drawn by a single loco
motive. The cars would consist OF
3s5 baggage, LOSS box, 1889 stock and
775 fiat.
Announcement was made yesterday
by the War Industries Board that the
locomotive industry has increased its
output approximately 100 per cent in
the past three months. 1t was also
that the "Pershing" loco
motive. built for the American army's
use abroad and weighing So tons in
stead of the 80 tons found necessary
in this country. has been adopted by
the French and British as the stand
a rd type for their use on the Western
front. The further benefits of this
step to the American locomotive in
dustry are obvious.
