QUARTERS ARE PROVIDED FOR
 THE FAIR SEX

ANCHORAGE. Oct 5.-War. with it's consequent effect of drawing young men to the colOrs. is resulting in the rapid increase in the number of wo- men employees in the offices of the government railroad. And with the constant addition of feminine work CTS, the problem of housing them had to be given consideration by officials sion
 Four large two-story buildings, pc titioned into rooms for either one or two tenants. have been in use for bachelar quarters for men since the commission began the construction of the government railroad Until very recently, no housing provision was necessary for women employees be- cause there were only few of them and practically all of these lived at home with relatives. Of late, how ever, so many women. who have been engaged as clerks or stenographers to take the places of men in the of come from the States or have exper- fenced the breaking up of their homes here because their men folks joined the army that the question of suit able quarters for women workers de manded an answer
 Accordingly, the commission has just turned over to women employees the large dwelling house formerly oc. cupied by Colonel Frederick Mears. who was the member of the commis- sion for the Anchorage division and who is now in France in command of the 31st regiment of engineers, United States army
 Soon after the dwelling was vacated by Colonel Mears last winter. it was occupied as bachelor quarters by a number of young men employed by the commission. With one or two ex- captions. all of these either have gone or are going to war
 The young women who have now taken the dwelling are chaperoned by Mrs. C. G. Jones. whose husband is captain with the 31st engineers. Captain Jones. before he joined the army. was roadmaster on the govern ment railway. He was known from one end of the line to the other as Hurry Up" Jones.

ALLIED AEROS APPLY
BRAKES TO HUN DRIVE
German Military Machine Ef-
fectively Halted When Airmen
Aid Artillery and Infantry.
Associated Press.)

With the British Army in France,
June 2S.--While the main resistance to
great enemy drive must necessarily
come from the artillery and infantry.
1t is not always realized how much the
allied air forces contribute to the work
of applying the brakes to the German
military machine.
During the early stages of an often
sive, the whole character of air fight
ing changes. While. maintaining re-
connoissance and bombing behind the
enemy's lines great number of ma
chimes are sent up with rowing COM
mission to harass and impede the ad-
vance by causing the maximum OF in
convenience. They attack cross roads
and important functions, they destroy
dumps and transports and then dis
perse concentrations of troops.
Fastest Planes Employed.
For this work some of the fastest
and most mobile of fighting machines
are employed, flown by pilots specially
trained for obstructive fighting. In
modern war an advance must go by
time table. An hours delay in taking
an objective, the result. of an unex-
pectedly obstinate resistance at a vital
point may lead to dislocation of the
whole moveme
There can be little doubt that the
failure of the German high command
to develop the initial advantages
gained in the fighting this spring was
due largely to the splendid work done
by the entente airmen.

probable duration of the war, I will
quote u French soldier | met in Wash
ington. A party of men were discuss
ing the length of the present hostilities,
and at last some man asked the
Frenchman his opinion.
"I don't know said the Gaul, but
think the first ten years Will be the
worst
"The point | wish to impress upon
you Is the greater effort we put forth
the less will be these years of war and
the fewer will be the American graves
in France"
In totaling up the American man
power to resist the Hun invasion, MAJ.
Trent gave some interesting figures:
Exclusive of boys ard women,
America had at the beginning of the
war about 35,000,000 laborers. We now
have in the army 100000 men, in the
navy 100000. in shipbuilding 100000
farm labor 100000 and war indus
tries 100000 or 100000.
ALSO before the war we had nor
NAL influx Of about 100000 immi-
grant laborers per year. Since the
outbreak of hostilities this has been
almost completely shut off. The result
is a shortage of manpower. What can
we do? We must have millions more
soldiers: we must have millions OF
farm laborers, not only to feed our
own country and our own soldiers, but
at least GO, 900, 900 foreigners will be de-
pendent upon America for FOOD. rms
forms a serious and difficult situation,
but there are ways out OF the dlH-
culty-first, Chinese labor.
"Cn this subject | will not touch. l
am in no position to express an opln-
ion either for or against the importa-
ton of Chinese labor. but ! do know
that there are millions OF fine laborers
in the Orient who would be only TOO
glad to come to our shores ana DO this
work."
Second, by the employment of wom-
en- labor. ,
mans work and giving the easy POSI-
tions to women.
'This Is the object of my address.
We want to take up the slack in Amer
ica's man power.
Let doctors, lawyers and profes-
sional men, who use chauffeurs, drive
their own cars and allow the chauffeur
to go to the army or to work.
Lawyers can do their own ONCE
work and let off their head clerks.
"In our great northwest, the farms
are run in three shifts Of eight hours
each, or that is working "a hours per
day, others have two shifts, working
IL hours each.
"ln the northwest, the merchants
give twelve days per month as workers
on the farms. They put their wives
and daughters in charge Of their stores
and go forth to the farms to work.
why do they do this? Because ev-
erything that America stands for, ev-
erything that Americans hold ear Is In
the balance in this contest.
"As for the exact application of the
work or-f fight rule, have given you
the spirit. The local and district
boards can apply 1t to your particular
necessities will not go into that
matter. The work. fight rule is
merely General Crowder's appeal for
each man to do his part in this gigan-
tic contest. You may not have the In
dividnal honor of wearing the uniform

man can do his part at home among
American fields and factories"
