What Cub Wonel. Are Doing

When a committc of the General
Federation of Woman's Clubs asked

of holding the Big Biennial of Clubs,
at the time of war, he said, 1--WE will
not discourage your convention, but
on the contrary, will encourage it in
every way"
War work is to be the key note
Of the Convention. The big way of
doing big service is the theme that
underlies, all preparations of the
program committee, Of which Mrs.
William Pedrick Jr., of Baltimore is
the Chairman. She has recently
made an inspection Of Hot Springs
and through her plans and sugges-
tions the local Biennial board has
changed its plans to suit war condi-
tons and feel quite prepared to sue
cessfully plan for the comfort and
well-being of Biennial guests.
Experts in every line Of human en-
deavor will address the Convention.
Soldiers at the Arkansas Cantonment
are asking what they can do for the
pleasure of the visiting club women.
Governor C. H. Brough will voice
official welcome from Arkansas to
the Women Of America on Tuesday
night, April 30th, at the opening
meeting of the Biennial at Hotel
Eastman, National Headquarters.
The opening session will be followed
by the Tri-State Reception given by
Arkansas, Texas and Louisiana.
The Daughters Of 1912 and the
Daughters of the American Revolu-
ton, Arkansas State Chapters, will
under the leadership of Mrs. S. P.

Talking EN- Over

If we were to 'knock" or legiti-
mately scriticise everything in this
town that really ought to be correct
ed, we would soon be very unpopular.
We are not seeking popularity" at
the expense of duty, but all working
together can correct many abuses by
SIMPLY talking them over" Now,
come on if you will call in the gull
ty party" talk it over together, and
see if we cannot "get together" on
some improvement. We are willing
to do our bit, but we want somebody
to share the responsibility and the
blame if criticism be unjust-Nat-
chitoches Times.

paper business, just as in all other
lines. Let the people know thru 9TH
er papers that your town is well rep
resented by the press. Then return
the courtesy. The Pioneer has this
to say about it. There is no better
way to increase the influence Of the
press Of the state, than by giving
publicity each issue to what the 9TH
er papers are saying and doing. If
all the papers in the state would
adopt this plan, the papers would get
closer to each other, and the good
work they are doing would have
much larger circulation"

Explains Purpose of
Interchangability

Senator, | am not dealing with an
accurate number when I say eight or
nine. But it was decided that a larger
degree of nterchangeability was re-
quircd, and the purpose Of that was in
order that when these rifles got to
France and were used under battle
conditions, if a man finds himself with
defective weapon, and alongside him
is another weapon, he can, if the emcr-
gency requires it, take out of one de-
1ectlvc weapon perfect part and re-
place defective part in his own
weapon and be equipped, and in order
TO enable us to repair rapidly rifles
rendered inefficient in service, so that
a constant supply of these weapons
Will be ready at the frant.
There was some delay in desienirr
wlth the particularly necessary, spec.-
1catlons for this remodelled Enfield.
and that delay led to this: That VIXEN
our troops actually were assembled in
the camps it was some time before taev
were fully armed with rifles. At the
outset they had very few rifles; there
was a distribution of krags and obso
lete weapons, in order that they might
drill with them. But it was some time
before they were adequately supplied
with the remodelled Enfield rifle.
That was foreseen. General Wood
came to my Office. have forpotten
when, but it was early, and suggested
TO me The advsability OF calling ont
larger army; said, But. General,

not the weapons for Them He said. .I
Know that. Mr.. Secretary, and they need
many things, but they need the rifles.
lhey need 20 learn to. live together. get
used to camp conditions, they need the
elemental disciplane of camp life. thew
need to be taught to keep step, they
need to know the subordinations of the
army ani It VIII take some time to give
lhem lhat preliminary instruction.
ne pointed out to me that in Eng
land the so-callcd Kitchener army
drilled for months, as he said. in their
ciVilian clothes, with top hats and using

rapidly, that a prolonged period OF
training may be given to them: but
We will call out first the regular army
and then we will call out the National
Guard and build it up to war strength. )
But with the draft army they would
have an additional period of traininc
IN the field by reason Of the fact that
the army cannot be shipped abroad in
bulk, suddenly. 1t was necessary to
attempt to forecast the amount of time
needed for training. and it was deemed
wise to put the men in the camps in
order that they might learn this mat

Thorough Inquiry
Into Every Complaint

I'm order that you may realize, Mr.
Chairman, that | am trying to be thor
ough in this matter. l will say that
there are still in the hands of the
inspector general nine cases which
are being investigated-thrce alleged
general bad conditions in hospital
service, two inefficient medical treat
ment. another complaint as to careless
preparation for burial two complaints
Of neglect by surgeons, and the last one
is stimulation Of illness with the con-
nlVance OF surgeon. | felt those, not
that they are as yet demonstrated t.
be true, but complaints that have come
10 the department and have been put
into the hands of that officer of the
army who, by reason Of the fact that
ne bears no relation to any other
branch or bureau of the service, is in
trusted with the instigation of every
complaint of this character. snd thev
are now being investigated by men
trained In that faculty and for the
purpose of recommendation.
Il may perhaps be permitted to say
word or two about what has been
done by the War Department through
the surgeon generals Office in this
matter. When the illness broke out in
the camps ! sent the surgeon general
in person to inspect those conditions.
and when he made his reports the
reports came to me involving criticism
OF various kinds rs to congestion be-
cause of illness. handed them in per

Senator Reed: And that you thought
1T was better-and when | say 'vou'

these factories which had ALREADY been
created than 20 wait to build fac
tories ?"
Secretary Baker: That was tho
view. And better for the reason that
the facilities We're already in quantity
production. In the second place, it
saved tonnage, and I am telling no
secret when | say to you, gentlemen of

lem IS the tonnage problem"

advantage TO France Has it been any
deprivation to France"
Secretary Baker: "Categorically I

very great advantage to France. Mr.

IS great advantage to French indus

Why LelUis Gun Was

is the special advantage of sendino
machine guns of the Lewis type to our
training camp to be used when our
artillery has determined rot to use
that sort OF gun in actual fighting, but
the Chauchnat gun. and the other gun ."
Secretary Baker: Senator, in view
of the fact that automatic rifles and
machine guns are highly technical and
complicated pieces of mechanism T
think 1T will be Il distinct advantage to
the troops if they could learn to use
the Lewis gun, even though they We're
not ultimately to use it. think It
