washington.-Ame will have an
army of half million men in France
early this year, with million more

ships is not unpromising. Secretary
Baker gave this information to the
world Jan. 28 in statement before
the Senate Military Committee reveal
ing much that until now has been care
fully guarded with the Army's military
secrets, in answering charges that the
government has broken down prepar-
ing for war. In sweeping statement
he showed the great steps this gov
errment has taken-some necessarily
sudden and without sufficient prepar
ation-to win the war. In reply to
those who have criticised the war
government, he declared:
Laxity in the medical service at
camps will not be tolerated.

Many times as many men are now
in France as originally planned for
this date.
General Pershing himself decided
against the Lewis machine gun for

sumed to himself, but added that the
best military advisers, including Maj
Gen. Leonard Wood, pressed for it.
The mistakes cited in Senator
Chamberlain's speech, Secretary Bak

RED CROSS PLEDGE PAYMENTS WILL BE
 DISCONTINUED NOW
MRS. BLEDsoE, CHAIRMAN OF MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION COM MITTEE, MAKES ANNOUNCE MENT AT SAME TIME THANK ING PUBLIC FOR ASSISTANCE

At a meeting of the executive board of the local Red Cross, December Il, it was voted that residents of the Warren district, who have been mak- ing monthly contributions to the chap ter, be released from their pledges.
 The committee who had this work in charge wish to thank the people of the district who have been so gen. erous in their contributions and who made it possible for this chapter to make its more than creditable record.
 They wish also to express to the mining companies and their forces their appreciation of the invaluable aid and cooperation given by them in making these collections. They are also indebted to the various collectors who have made the house to house calls.
 At the close of the year there will be published a full report of receipts and disbursements. covering the period from the date of the organiza- tion of the chapter to December 31, 1918.
 It must be remembered that we have a vast amount of work ahead of us in the reconstruction period and it will take much money to do our pari. However, we believe we have enough money in the treasury to carry it on. but should it be found that further financial assistance is needed we have such faith in the people oi ] the district, that we feel they will gladly resume their pledges if called upon tc d.

KISS MAKES HIT.

June Caprice gave the audience at the Eagle theater a good laugh yester- day when she appeared in her latest William Fox photoplay, "A Camou- flage Kiss" The dainty June gets mixed up in a pork and bean episode that just oozes with humor. Her broth er-in-law, whose pork business is bad, combines with a bean manufactures who is in love with June. He's shy, however. and foolishly gets another man to steal kiss from June in the dark, hoping to make June believe he did it. But the real kisser kisses June in the daylight and then it's all of for the pork man because June knows the real thing from the sample. The Camouflage Kiss will be shown again today.
