Hun Murder Traps
Some of the Schemes Fleeing
Germans Devised to Slaugh-
ar.;. ter Allies.

London. Dec 20 Correspondence
OF the Associated Prcss)-Detection
b.. British army investigators Of. Ger
man "booby-traps'' saved the lives of
many an officer or man Of the British
armies during the period when the
Germans were retreating from Franco:
a am convinced sa%S one officer.
that we nipped many Of the Hun $
favorite plans by capturing near Bray
a little factory where he made, his
booby-traps When We occupied. it
we learned much from the partly COM
pieted traps we found lying about the
place.:
"O1ie Of them was an iron plate.
This the willy Hun dropped in a road
way so that it would likely be trod
upon; by soldier or horse Of our 2ad-
vancing troops. The plate was in
two parts. with a spring inside, and
usually contained a detonator con-
meeting with heavy charge OF exp!o-
s:ve When the weight OF the FOOT
was removed, the spring .sprans into
place and exploded tho detonator.
and the damage was done.
These spring detonators were the
Germans specially. They consisted
of a tube containing a little. spring
with hook at one end. Attached TO
the hook was a string or wire con-
meeting with the explosive charge. Any
arrangement by which the spring
could be distended and then sud
denly contracted served to jerk the
string. and the charge was exploded
"One night l received call from
our lieutenant colonel who had spent
the day directing movements from a
recently captured Gernan1 dugout.
He told nc he was nervous, and De-
lieved ne was assoc;at:ng with.
'booby.' and asked me to send him
SQUAD of engineers to look it over. /
went myself.
THE colonel sat IN the duGout.
about ten fee: down. o., a chair by a
table Directly in front Of the char
was a petrol can and it was the can
he feared He had noticed it carly
in the morning when the dugout was
first occupied. but had been so busy
during the day he had had no time to
examine it Until evening. Then he
found nothing. bat he had 'huach
that it was 6 trap and wanted expert
assistance.
II dug 2 little trench around the
can. but could t.a' no wires. ana
then tapped it. but received no SOUND
other than that which might come
from any old. empty can. There was
nothing to do but open it. and bor-
rowing the coioneds can opener J
went at it as gingcrly as I could.
''1t was partly filled with about
eight pounds of one OF the most dead-
~ powder explosives known to sca>
enca. This removed very carefully,
and in the bottom OF the can found
the spring dctonator. 1t had been
fastened to tho bottom OF the car IN
such way that if the can had been
lifted from the floor OF the dug 'ut
tho charge would have exploded and
thc colonel and his party would have
been blown to bits.
''The colonel palca . little when
I showed him just what he had b' eD
associating with all day and very r. !;
vently thanked himself for Ole" 20
his 'hunch' to let that can alone

Order foz Ships
Are Cancelled

Washington, Jan. 2S.-Orders to
slaipyards not TO begin work on ships
aggregating from 100000 to 1885,
900 deadweight tons. the keels for
which ordinarily would not have been
laid before next August 1. are now
ieing sent out by the shipping board.
Charles Piez. director general OF the
Emergency Fleet Corporation, said to-
day that yards on both the Atlantic
and Pacific coasts were affected.
"The steel for the suspended ships
has not yet been rolled in most cases.
said Mr.. Piez. land the order does not
affect Immediately the operation OF
any yards. 1t is not to be assumed
that the ships contemplated will not
eventually be built.
The reason for the order is that
types of ships which it will be found
advisable to construct under peace
conditions are being determined by
the committee of experts which is now
at work. Their report is not yet
available and will not be available for
some time but it is fairly certain that
it will not be advisable to start the
construction Of some vessels that were
contracted for during the war emer-
cency. Contracts are therefore being
suspended.
ships now nndcr construction are
not affected by the suspension orders.
nor does ii affect any ships for which
normal pressure up to August ]. !"

Washington, Jan. 29.-Early action
on legislation to adjust war contract

many Industrial centers had increas-
ed rapidly IN the past ten days
Plants heretofore engaged in war
work were said not to be cnanelns

enough to hold their proper proper
lion Of labor. The cancelling OF war
contracts. with no provision Tor an
early financial adjustment of the
manufactu investment in war
machinery. materials and partly com
pleted contracts, was blamed ror
plunging some concerns into a state
Bordering on stagnation. ss5..
THE department of labor's -investl-
cations Of ways and means to st1mu-
late building and improvements and
augment the absorption of labor IN
Industry, disclosed these two import
ant ways of getting results, the state

date capital for manufacturing.
The. statement ADDED that pro-
posed law on the first recommenda-
ton soon would be introduced IN con-
gress. Legislation on the latter now

Washington. jan 29.-Prolonged
! discussion Of amendments and Of the
Hitchcock substitute prevented the
senate today from reaching a final
/; vote on the military committees Dill
to validate and permit the settle
ment Of informal war contracts ag-
gregating $780, 100000. In moving
a recess, Senator chamberlain OF
Oregon, in charge OF the measure. an
nounced that he would endeavor to
keep the senate in session tomorrow
until the legislation had been enacted.
During consideration of the bill to-
day, the senate tentatively adopted an
amendment by Senator Henderson OF
Nevada, authorizing the secretary OF
the interior to adjust claims growing
out of the stimulation by the govern
rlent of the production Of minerals
needed in the prosecution of the war
Another amendment by Senator NC
Kellar of Tennessee. requiring the

! Senator Chamberlain denied that
the measure would permit Of such
procedure and declared that if sec
rctary of war or any Of his subordi-
mates did such a thing they should be
impeached.
