 NEW EQUIPMENTS
Howard Elliott Says Three Billion 
 Must Be Spent

New York, Dec. 4.--Now railroad equipment costing approximately S3,- 00O,0O0.00O must be bought within the next few years if the American people are to avert a still higher cost ot AirinG, said Howard Elliott, president of the Northern Pacific railroad com pany. before the reconstruction con- ference of the Association of Lite Ah- surance Presidents here today.
 MT. Elliott, who spoke on the suo~ ject The Efficient Transportation Wa chine a. National Necessity" said that thCrc could be no higher functloh TOT 1hc great life insurance companies st inc present lime than to make it plain to all tllc people that our railroads must not be crippled but on the con- 1rar, they must keep abreast of the times and be prepared to serve the great and growing future of tho country"
 The speaker said that without an increase in freight and passenger rates, A very large number of rail- road p4nicS would face bank ruptcy and that very few of those who escaped would be able to pay stock kholdGrs, The year would end there was every indication. he said with a deficit of perhaps $350.00O,OOO for all railroad operations. Tho country cannot have an efficient trans portation mnrhinc nor can invest 1ncnts in railroad securities be pro- tccted, he said, unloss the roads are given higher compensation to main- tain them efficiently.
 The speaker said that the Assoria- tion of Railway Executives in q t>- 4 N n k Ij- tors, asked them to express their opinion on government ownership and control, and that S% per cent replied that their mmuJities were in favor of the return of the roads to their ' owners. He said that everyone of the B, 3,923,134 life inSurancH policy holders in tho United States were Nitally interested in the solution of the transportation. problem because among the assets securing their poli cies were nearly %$3soeo, ,O00, 900 of railway securities.

Here's Another Fight.

Lieut.. Col. Patton. who at 1 am. had
! sent Lieut.. McCluer of Arizona from
Woel with three tanks and five run
ners to reconnoiter. received the fol-
| lowing message from him:
Have been attacked by one battery
one battalion of infantry. Am now
counter-attacking. McCLUER."
Five more tanks. under Capt. Cor
don M. Grant. Long Island, N. Y. were
sent to his support and they chased
| the Germans into Joinville, on the
to arrive on that defense barrier.
However. as a tank at its best max
| only eight kilometers an hour. usually
only one when in action, they are not
hard to run away from.
| A tank in which Capt. H. H. Semmes
! of Washington and non-commis-
stoned officer were attempting to cross
| the little stream known as the Rupt
de Mod was hit by an enemy shell
and stalled in the water. The captain
crawled out through the top and with
enemy machine-gun bullets splashing
around him swan to the shore. Then
he discovered that the man with him
had not followed, probably being un-
conscious from the gas which filled
the tank. He swan back under fire,
pulled the driver out and brought him
to shore.
Capt. John Castle. a former Yale
halfback, was in a tank when its top
| was smashed by q II she'll and es-
capped with his life. Bullets did not
make an impression on a tank nor
could a tank do much with a German
concrete pillbox. one of those minia1
ture forts which were every place
along their trenches. In one instance
when a tank was sent out to silence
a pillbox, the two spit at each other
for half an hour. the bullets splashing
harmlessly against each others sides.
Then the tank commander had
bright idea He waddled his tank
right up to the pillbox and leaned it's
side against the opening in the con-
crete wall. The German could not fire
after that and couple of minutes
later the pillbox was surrounded and
a grenade dropped inside.
On another occasion a tanks gun
jammed as it was going after Ger
man machine gun emplacement. The
be boys of not more than nineteen
years. stuck to their gun. firing at the
rele entless monster of steel and iron,
though their bullets were like so
many spitballs against its wrinkled
belly. until it lowered over them and
finally crushed them. They were not
chained to their guns.
THE world is better without them,
but they were brave soldiers" was the
marking the tank crew put over their
graves.

TANKS USED WHERE
FIGHT IS HOTTEST
Corps, Well Organized, Does
Effective Service Under
American Command.
BY JUNIUS II. WOOD.
Especial Correspondence of The Even
ing Star and Chicago Daily News.)

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMIES
] IN EUROPE, General Headquarters.
| Chaumont. France, March 15.-Except
! for occasional mention that tanks
| took part in certain battles. little has
been written about the work per-
. formed by the American Tank Corps.
The American tank was something
! like the American aeroplane-they
were just starting to materialize
when the armistice ended the war.
However. the Tank Corps vas well
organized and. using French and
British tanks. did effective service in
every engagement under American
command.
The best evidence that our tanks
were up where the fighting was hot
test is that so per cent of the their
officers and AZ per cent of the men
of the corps were casualties. Seven
teen tanks were disabled with direct
artillery hits in the ST. Mihiel Of
fensive alone. All of them were more
or less battered up. but the corps
operation every night just back of the
battle line. repaired 220 per cent of
the fleet meaning that each tank was
salvaged and put back into service
more than once.
Men Carefully Selected.
Two former cava;rymen were in
command of the tank battalions.
Lieut.. Col. George S. Patton, jr.. of
Los Angeles. for several years pre-
ceding an aid to Gen. Pershing, had
command of the light tanks with
the American forces. He left the
semi-social, kid glove G. H. Q. po-
sition to take command of a tank
battalion in the field, a transition
similar to that from a ballroom to
blacksmith shop. Maj. Ralph 1.
Sasse had charge of the American
tank men with the British. All of
the tank men were specially picked
from other branches of the service
and given a regular course of train
ing. They thoroughly mastered the
operation of one of the iron boxes
before they took them into action.
The American tank battalion made
it's initial bow at the ST. Mihiel Of
fensive. September II. 191S-the first
American offensive. Into that action
went ia American tanks. With their
officers walking outside-one feature
of tank service is that the command
ing officers do not ride in the armored
boxes, but go on foot, directing the
way-these tanks went over the top
ahead of the infantry, crushing the
barb wire and straddling the trenches
which had protected the Germans for
four years.

Tanks Lost at the Front.

The flotilla of tanks ambling along
the highways in the rear Of any army
is considered the best evidence by
enemy aviators that an attack is i'm
pending. Consequently tanks are not
brought up until the last moment.
put in a place we'll covered from OBJ
servation in the daytime.
The tanks for the st. Mihiel often
sive were brought as close as possi-
BILE on trains-long strings of fiat cars
like circus caravans. The last train
railhead until $3.50 am. the morning
of the attack. The artillery prepara-
ton had already started. The infan-
try was to go over at 5 am, and in
order to get into their position in the
front these tanks had to cover eight
and then cross the American trenches.
Colonel. make them wait! Make
them wait! We must get there on
time" the young officer commanding
the last section urged Lieut.. Col Pat
ton. z
"Keep moving. If they start ahead
of you. catch up" was the only con-
ISOLATION the colonel could give him.
The tanks got there.
That first action of the American
Tank Corps formed a large part of the
correspondents cables the following
day.
Lieutenant Keeps at the Front.
Lieut.. Julian K Morrison of Louisi-
ana was wounded three times in the
left hand on the first day of the st.
Mihiel drive. The battalion command
er that night ordered him to the rear
He had his hand dressed, but instead
of staying at the rear was at the
front again at midnight. The next day
his hand was so swollen that the gen.
eral commanding the brigade ordered
him to the rear again. He pleaded SO
hard with Lieut.. Col. Patton against
being ruled out of the fight that the
latter said. though he must go to the
rear as ordered, he could return if he
would bring up ten tanks which were
there. The joker in this promise was
that the roads were believed i'm
passable and bringing up ten or any
other number of tanks was considered
an impossibility. However, before
noon Morrison was back, in Woel with
the ten tanks and his wounded hand.
That time he was permitted to stay.
Later he was decorated with D.

Editorial
During the past few years,
we have heard and read much
about economy-econOmy of
everything except human en-
ergy.
1t would be interesting if
We could determine the
amount of energy expended
by people telling us why GER
tain things cannot be done.
We would, no doubt, find
that this same amount of en-
ergy expended along any de-
sirable line would accomplish
the end in view.
Let's make an extra effort
during these days of recon-
struction to train energy of
can't into that of can.
It will mean a much more
speedy solution of the diff
culties and the problems
\ which we must face during
\ the coming few months.
And don't forget that it
takes more energy for con-
structive work than it does
for destructive efforts.

in all probability they will hold the place they have gained. And already the auto truck and passenger car have their place in Alaska, and with good roads the possibilities are unlimited either in winter or summer.
 This is only one phase of the important bearing that good roads have upon the de- velopment of the country, but it is one that is deserving of consideration and attention. In view of the fact that autos can be used here practically the whole year round, it can be easily seen that auto traffic will take an i'm portant place in the future of the country
 It is an added reason for progressive and greatly enlarged program of roal-building for the territory, and it should be an argument that will bring results in the shape of such a program. It is the logical. modern way for the country to develop-the government rail road connecting the interior with the coast and the Outside, and good roads connecting the shipping points with the outlying districts by means of an efficient system of auto trucks and passenger cars. Good roads are funda- mental necessity to developing country, and the interior is justified in putting in plea
 for them. Surely it is easily seen from what has already been done along that line that they will open up unlimited possibilities for auto traffic, a fact that has great significance
 in these times of motor driven transportation
 facilities. We need good roads and the re-
 suits that will come from their building will entirely justify the initial expense and the cost of their upkeep.
The weekly Alaska citizen., 1919-01-20

that they are facing problem that will tax them to the limit to solve, and it is right here that Alaska can come to the rescue, for Alas ka can pay the Nations war debt. All that is necessary for this is that the country be given a chance to develop, and that very process will take the burden of the war debt, both mone- tary and that of gratitude owing to the sol diers, from the shoulders of the people in the states proper and place it upon the new coun- try, young and strong, ready and willing to bear it.
 So every time you write letter Out side use the slogan, Alaska Can Pay the Ma tion's War Debt," and thus advertise the country That slogan is meant for use-in fact it can not be used too much. Have it printed upon your business stationery. In- clude it in your advertising and above all and everything else, whenever you communicate with any one Outside, be sure to use it. Some correspondence came to our attention, written by one of the live, wide-awake spirits of the community, to publication Outside, and the slogan was written across the bottom of the sheet That is the very idea, and the live members of the town and the territory will take it up and use it, just as slogans should be used. Make it familiar all over the coun- try, and Alaska 70U develop and pay the Ma tions war debt.
