Before War.

The joint operation nf tho Cotton
Belt and the Missouri Pacific railroad
lines into Memphis win end Dec. 10,
after which date the Cotton Belt will

dent of the Arkansas and Missouri divi-
sion of the Cotton Belt, Wednesday
morning at a conference at the Cham
Der Of Commerce, attended by various
officials.
Mr.. Stevenson said that credit for the
early return Of the Cotton Belt into
Memphis is due to the Memphis Cham
~ NJ Co~rler"e. the Memphis Freight
bureau, the Memphis Merchants ex-
cnange n the other organizations that
joined in the efforts of the Chamber OF
Commerce to induce the federal. rail
o administration to end the joint
operation of the line. Had it not been
for the strenuous efforts of these organ
i~zations the independent operation OF
the Cotton Belt into this city, which is
of the greatest Importance to the indus
trial growth and progress Of its bust
ness interests, could not have been
hoped for at nearly so early a date, MIR,
Stevenson told the conference.
The Cotton Belt will use its former
freight house for both incoming and
outbound freight. At present this sta
ton is used as the joint inbound freight
station for the Missouri and Cotton Belt
freight. The station is now being re-
paired and made ready for the change,
For the present the joint commercial

to which the city Is rightfully entitled
to throughout the entire Cotton Bel

IRELAND ASSERTS POISON
GAS Is HUMANE WEAPON

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-Poison gas
is "one of the most humane weapons
Of war" according to a report by Sur
geon General Ireland, based on analysis
Of American casualties in France made
public today. While 74,779 of the ga
PIT battle casualties resulted from en-
envy gas, the report says, the number Of
deaths was very small"
Gas caused 27.3 per cent of all casual
ties, it Is found, accomplishing the
prime object Of all weapons of war
which is to put men out Of action"
but there were only 1877 per cent of
deaths in gas cases as compared with
23.4 per cent from shell or bullet
wounds.
"In other words, based on statistics"
the report said, 1.-The claim is advanced
that a man gassed has IL times as many
| chances of recovery as the man put out
of action by other causes"
