HOSPITAL WORK PERFECT
By Webb Miller

united Press staff correspondent
Paris, Sept. l4.-The American hos
pital organization in preparation for
the American offensive in the st. HMi.
hiel salient, was practically perfect.
Anticipating the operation, the Red
Cross opened three new hospitals and
hundreds of surgeons and nurses were
rushed into the fighting zone few
hours befolv the attack. One of these
hospitals contained 1000 beds, another
1900 and the third had a complement
Of 5000 beds.
A special corps Of canteen workers
from the Red Cross spent the time dur
ing the fighting carrying hot drinks
and cigarettes to the advancing areas
for the wounded dOughboys who were
going to the rear. Women workers car
ried hot food to the long line Of slight
ly wounded men standing at the hospi-
tails, awaiting treatment.
The organization had shipped ten
million cigarettes, S5 carloads of dress
ing and 45 carloads of other surgical
material into the zone of operations
The night before the Americans went
over the top, every hospital was in
readiness. Every detail of preparations
for the wounded men had been com
pleted.

most bitter pills that tho Hun higher

the effort to halt the Americans and
French. Undoubtedly the Germans fear.
ed less for Metz than for the Briey
and Longwy ore basins, from which
with Luxemburg and the annexed por.
tions of Lorraine, nine tenths of Ger
many's iron is obtained.
These districts give the enemy a to-
tai Of ,60,O00,OO0 tons. Without these
mines they would have only 100000
tons. Lacking occupation of the Briey
basin, Germany could not have fought
SO long. Possession Of Briey, Longwy
and Thionville is absolutely necessary
to Germany if the Tcutonic troops are
to be kept in the field. If any of these
districts are placed under allied gun
fire, Germany will be crippled by just
that much.
For this reason TREY madly flung
troops into the breach In an effort tc
arrest at any cost any thrust in the
direction of their cherished mine field:
Foch's first Objective in the Ameri
can offensive was apparently only the
pinching off of the salient. Beyond the
base of this pocket there is very pow
erfully defended eountry--line after
line Of trenches and beyond that ring
upon ring of Notifications, all about
Metz. Foeh knows his game and the
allies know he will play it masterfully.

Edwin Tanson Killed
In Battle In France

The terrors of war are becoming
more and more apparent to Silverton
people as the dreadful conflict is pur-
sued. Wednesday morning Mrs. Tan
son received telegram from the au-
thorities that her son, Edwin Tanson,
had been killed in battle at France
on July 30th. Edwin was in the hos
pital several weeks ago suffering from
disease, and at that time it was ru-
mored that he had been wounded but
the rumor proved false. In this case,
however, the report comes from author
ity and there is no reason to doubt
as to the facts as represented in the
telegram. That another Marion coun-
ty boy has given up his life in the
fight for democracy there can be no
doubt. Other boys in this vicinity
have made the supreme sacrifice, but
Edwin Tanson is the first Of the boys
from this city to pass over.
Edwin Tanson enlisted in Company
before the declaration of war with
Germany and was among the first Of
the Oregon boys to 90 across. The sad
information regarding his early depar-
ture was received on the part of his
many friends here with deep regret.

workshops are pupcly curative. and the

There are more than 1900 patients at
the Military Orthopedic, and the ma.
jority of them in the course of their
treatment, are given work Of some kind
in the curative workshops. These shops
engage in carpentery work, boot and
shoe making, tailoring, splint making
and many other industries. Everything
useed in the hospital is made by the
patients, and there is even a shop for

Lincoln State Journal Editorial

IN. P. Dodge, whom Lincoln and Ne
braska will remember as several times
a member of the legislature from
Omaha, is this year a candidate for the
republican nomination for Congress in
the Second district. When in the
house in 1905, Mr.. Dodge introduced
the first statewide direct primary bill
ever proposed in a Nebraska legis-
lature. In the senate in 1918 he faith
cred the election law which gave
Omaha honest elections and relieved
Nebraska from the perils that went
with padded vote in Omaha s under
world wards. In the 1915 senate he
led the fight for the Omaha municipal
lighting bill, which Governor More
head later vetoed. In him Omaha fur
nished the state one of the most active
and consistently progressive members
the legislature has contained. Such
record in a state legislature is the
sort Of preliminary showing public
should require in a candidate for Con-
gress. It offers the best possible evi-
dence Of what can be expected Of him
in Congress.

Herbert c. Hoover, American food

be ample supplies of fats and meat if
the populations are economical and
avoid waste.
"The danger of privation is now
passed." he said. Mr.. Hoover ex-
planned that the people OF North
America were now able to take
overseas the bulk of food supplies re-
quired and it will therefore be possible
to curtail the total length of voyage
to the European allies, thus effechng
a considerable saving in tonnage.
He said program had been agreed

the increased demands of Europe

that will form positive insurance
