JUGO- SLAvS CARED
FOR BY RED CROSS
AMERICA is MOTHER TO MANY
BALKAN COUN-
TRIES

BELGRADE, Serbia, April 3d.
There has been an American in
vasion of Jugo-Slav territory. In
every city from Durazzo, in Alban-
ia, to Strumitza, in Serbia, and
reaching from Belgrade to Zagreb,
the jewel of Jugo-Slavia, Ameri-
can Red Cross officers, physicians
and nurses, and representatives of
the food administration and of the
army, may be seen All are en-
gagged in the big task of feeding
and clothing the people in the
areas which have suffered most by
the war. The United States has
been likened to a beautiful moth
err caring for a flock of small
children - the children being the
many Balkan countries compris'
ing what n day is expected to
become greater Jugo-Slavia.
At a hundred points in Serbia
Montenegro, Albania, Bosnia, Her
zegOvina and CrOatin, the Ameri'
can Red Cross is giving the people
a taste of American generosity
Food, clothing, shoes and medi'
cines are being distributed to the
destitute. American physician!
and nurses are caring for the sick
and wounded. BY their work
and their example, these Ameri.
cans are intoxicating in the Sla,
new ideas of thrift, self-help
cleanliness and honesty, which
must have a lasting influence.
The population of these coun'
tries is composed of many diverse
races. The individual ambitions
of the different Slav countries have
been sacrificed in a desire to keel
Italy from obtaining Dalmatia OIL
any part of the eastern Adriatit
coast. The eyes of all are turn
ed to America, which they regard
as the greatest sponsor for the
integrity of the Slavic nations.

D. S.EMG|AEERS SET
MAP-MAK|MG RECORD
COMPLETED TEN THOUSAND
FIELD MAPS IN AN
HOUR

PARIS, April 90. = The Twenty
ninth Engineers OF the American ex-
peditionary Force are conducting
some interesting experiments in
map making and reproducing in the
field. With a five-ton truck as a
printing and lithographic establish
ment they have succeeded in turning
out 10000 copies of field maps an
hour. The French and British are
taking a keen interest in the Amer
lean outfit as they have used a rail-
way train for such work and their
best output has been about 800
copies an hour. Furthermore a rail-
way train is limited in operation to
available trackage while there vir-
tually is no limitation to the mobil-
ity of the truck.
In some operations of this wal
every man in a trench raid party
has been furnished with a map OF
the sector involved so the Importance
of quick map making is very great,
The quick development and prompt
reproduction in quantity of air
photographs is also a phase of these
experiments.

WOUNDED GERMANS FORM
POLITICAL ASSOCIATIONS

COLOGNE, April 26. = German
soldiers wounded in the war have
begun forming associations in CO.
logne and other towns and cities
in various parts of Germany. Some
of the leaders say the associations
plan to eventually take a promi-
nent part in politics. A commits
sion has been appointed in Co
logne to consider means for pro-
viding for those most seriously
wounded. Discharged soldiers re-
ported that the municipal authori-
ties. have done little to aid the dis
abled men and that many of them
we're not even receiving their fed
eral wound allowances.

CHICAGO, April 26. - The fu-
ture development of the American
merchant marine is at stake and
no more important economic prob
lem has ever presented itself at
one time to the American people,
James A. Farrell. president Of the
United States Steel corporation,
today told the delegates to the ma
tional foreign trade convention
here.
1.-The ocean-going steel cargo
tonnage now held by u govern
ment aggregates 555 vessels Of s.
465, 900 lightweight tons, and
there are under contract 1886 YES
sells of s~,275.Oo0 TONS" said Mr..
Farrell. SHOULD the present pro-
gram be carried out to completion
there will be under the American
flag next year 16.732,000 dead
weight tons of shipping, of which
perhaps 100000 tons can be
classed as ocean-going.
I'm it's initial stages the prob
lem is one of international coop
Grafton and stability Of rates
rather than of international COM
petition. A world, M of whose
most pressing needs is e trans
portation, will have to start the
process of social, commercial and
industrial reconstruction with a
merchant marine smaller by 81
10000 tons of carrying capacity
than that which it possessed al
the outbreak of the var 1t will
thus be seen that the world is
still short of ships, especially
those of general utility suitable
for off-shore trades, and there will
still be work for shipyards fol
! vessels of this character until the
world shortage is made up.
There is no escaping the fact

STEEL CORPORATION HEAD DISCUSSES
PROBLEM OF u. S. MERCHANT MARINE

that we start in the race with
higher costs OF operation. How
much higher cannot as yet De
stated accurately, but l think l
may hazard the statement that IL
in other respects We are able 10
meet the competition of the worid
on equal terms, especially the
types of ships built or to be built,
comparable with those OF our
competitors, the relatively nigh
wages of American officers, engi-
neers and seamen sufficient IN
number to operate economically
with safety will not prove to be a
serious handicap"
Mr.. Farrell said it could not De
assumed that American vessels
should be manned by competent
crews and have American seamen
enjoy the best possible conditions
of life in service. But" he
added, sit must be equally obvious
that provisions of law which re-
quire Aemrican vessels to maintain
larger crews than is the case with
foreign vessels and to carry as the
engine room crew 80 per cent
more than the steamships of any
other nations necessarily subject
American vessels to a very serious
disadvantage"
Concerning government owner
ship and operation of steamships,
Mr.. Farrell said "The temporary
appearance as a military necessity
of the government of the United
States as a ship builder and ship
owner on a colossal scale does not
render it any less a fact that the
future of the American merchant
marine must depend on the attrac-
tons which it offers to the en-
ployment of private capital and
the application of private enter
prise"

DOUBT
PLANE FUTURE
CANNOT SEE POSSIBILITY OF
COMMERCIAL USE
FULNESS

LONDON, April 25.-British ok
perts, seeking to forecast the flu
ture potentialities of aircraft, seem
to agree that it is to the airship
of rigid construction, not to the
airplane, that one must look for
the maximum OF commercial use
fulness.
The limitations of airplanes de-
signed on present principles are
| definitely known. Technically, 1t
is an accepted fact that an air.
plane cannot be produced which
is capable of transporting a COM
m~ercially adequate load for a
longer nonstop flight than 1000
miles. For lIictical purposes 500
to 500 miles are regarded as the
workable limits.
But the prospects of airships
are much less easy to diagnose.
1t is recognized that rigid airships
can fly for distances of $500 miles
carrying q mmerc1a or ap-
proximately fifteen tons and that
they are enabled to undertake
long flights now believed to be i'm
possible by airplanes.
Every increase in the size OF
airships Is accompanied by great
err relative efficiency, but the me-
diminished airships have greater
advantages, it is said, than is
generally supposed. For example,
the North Sea class" OF !.0t
horse power Is capable of trans
porting a load of more than three
tons. whereas the f%our-engined
giant airplane of 100 horse power
is able to lift less than four tons
and burns twice as much gasoline.

LONDON, April &c. Trans
p~ortation of food to Germany is
largely under the direction of the
United States navy, but this work
will entail only an addition to the
vast system of food distribution
maintained by the navy since the
armistice. The system utilized
successfully in providing for hun
dreds of thousands in the near
east, Balkans, Poland, Finland and
Belgium will be applied to Ger
many.
The navy's job is to get the
food to the place directed by Her
bert c.. Hoover and to protect it
until it is taken over by response
BILE authorities. The navy will
see that the supplies are transport
ed to Hamburg and Bremen and
guard it with warships and mel
until it is delivered to persons who
assume responsibility for it's dis
tribution.
Thus far the navy has used 81
ships for food and supplies for
people who could not live without
outside assistance. OF these 63
were manned entirely by navy
men and their activities covered a
wide territory.
Until the task of feeding Ger
many was taken over the most ex-
tensive work was conferred in
Constantinople, whence it was at
tempted to send food to the Ru-
manians, Armenians and Serbians.
Food ships were also sent from
Constantinople to Beirut, Baku
and Constanza, always with
enough fighting ships to insure

Motor Truck is
 Empire Builder

It is only a short time ago that the automobile was novelty.
 The first American motor truck was made in 1898 in little shop in Brooklyn. 1t was Mack and was used to carry sight-seers in Prospect Park, Brooklyn.
 By 1914 the motor truck had prov ed itself commercial success; but it took the big war to make people req llze that 1t is one of the greatest means of transportation, From 5000 motor trucks in use ten years ago, the number has increased to 500,0O0. 1t is estimated that this year alone the number of trucks that will be manufacured and sold will amount to 350,00O.
 It is matter of special note that the biggest users of motor trucks are farmers.
 To the public, motor transportation holds out a promise of lower cost of living. Rural motor express routes bring produce into cities from farms within a large surrounding area and, by eliminating several handlings be- tween producer and consumer, ma terially reduce prices of foodstutfs. This is also true with many other products. It means lower prices 10 consumers and better prices tor pro- ducers.
 The motor truck links together more closely than ever before the farm and the city, and is bringing about an improvement in living condl- tions i'll both country and city.
 The remarkable progress of motor truck transportation makes 1t neces- sary to build roads to carry the loads. i Millions of dollars are being spent for the improvement of our country roads. Instead of a narrow, short sighted policy that will mean the waste ot huge sums of money for roads that will be inadequate few years hence, common sense and fore sight must be used and our roads built with the needs of 10 years in the future in mind.
 "The motor truck brings the most modern and economical means of transportation to the door of practi- cally every farmer" says K. k. Full ton, vice president of the Interna- tional Motor company, manufacturers of Mack truck, "and as transportation facilities in a community are improv- ed conditions improve. Land values increase because the price of land de- bends upon what it costs to get pro- ducts to the market. Communities with good roads are always the most prosperous and up-to-date.
 Great empires that will rival these built by the railroads in the past will grow and improve with the advent of good roads and motor transporta- tion."

but now it will not serve for more than two weeks, although l do not use the lights any more than l used to. What is the cause of this 1?
 Answer: The capacity of all stor- age batteries decreases progressively with age, for the following reasons among others. More or less of the active material of the plates (the lead oxides that take part in the cleo trochemical changes becomes de- tached and sheds from the plates and is thus lost, the storage capa- city of the cell is reduced. The pores of the active material tend to fill with impurities, or some of the ac- tive material loses effective electrical contact with the plates and there is a formation of permanent lead sulphate which is inactive. The insulating separators tend to become clogged with impurities and of high resist ance. Detached active material sometimes collects in such quantities as to short-circuit the plates and cause current to leak away without useful effect.

Com pare tor instance, the smooth resi- Hence of Fifth avenue with the rough, gritty, and tlinty surfaces so often encountered on country roads, and try to imagine what tidy sum in all travel on avenue surfaces. The saving in tire costs alone would pay the difference in construction cost in many instances.
 "How much does the road surface govern the amount of gasoline re- quired by the motor vehicle? This is an important and timely question, for right now serious minds are wor- rying over the future of power sour- ces for motor cars. No conclusive tests have been made on all types of road under absolutely uniform conditions and with disinterested mo- tives. Such data as has been as sembled shows that road surfaces of fer tractive resistances running all the way from 300 pounds or more per ton for sand and loose gravel to 20 pounds and less for the best grades of smooth hard surfaced pavements
