CANOUF[ LACE WORK
GETS new STATUS
Regiment to Be Disbanded,
But Study of Subject to
Be Continued.

DISARMAMENT of the camouf1age
regiment of the Army. comprising
the 10th Engineers, trained at Ameri-
can University, is predicted for the
near future. This famous regiment
probably will cease to exist as
regiment shortly, and it is under
stood that there will never be an
other "camouflage section" as such.
This does not mean, it is pointed
out, that camouf1age has been found
wanting, or that there will be no
more camoufiage. practiced in the
United States Army. The proposal is
that camoufiage, as an art or science,
shall be taught as a part of the
regular studies of the Army officer.
Study of Separate Branches.
Instead of having a separate regi-
ment, the members of which are ex-
perts in all branches of camouflage,
present plans call for the study by
each officer of only such branches
OF camouf1age as may be applied
directly to his branch of military
science. The artillery officer, for in
stance, may easily pick up, and in a
comparatively short time. enough of
the tricks of camoufiage to, properly
mask his guns and men. : So each
officer of the service may study the
art of concealment
Camoufiage, it is declared, is more
a matter of handling lights and
shadows than anything else. 1t is
not so artistic" as some imagine, it
is said, nor is as much paint used as
other materials

MONEY RATIoNrNG HINTED.
Federal Reserve Bulletin Says Method


Insures Sound Economic Basis.
A new era in American finance
"replete with new and momentous
problems demanding 10 less serious
consideration than those of war;" is
predicted in the December bulletin of
the Federal reserve board, made public
last week.
Rationing Of the financial resources
of the country during the transition
period, not widely differing from that
required when the nation was at war;
aid to foreign governments through the
medium Of the banks, in addition to
that which may be required from the
American government; prevention of
imitation; limitation Of industry to
those lines which may properly be
called essential" and methods for alb
sorption Of war loans, were some Of the
suggestions made for securing sound
economic basis for the future.
With the termination of the war, the
United States, in common with the rest
Of the world, is confronted with prob
lens and needs growing out Of re-
construction, but, in the opinion Of the
board, definite limits must be set to the
requirements Of public financing.
THE liquor capital Of the country"
the bulletin continues. may for long
time to come be inadequate to meet
the demands Of the world, and some
process Of outstanding or rationing II
must therefore be applied during re-
construction, just as has been the case
during the period Of the war. The me-
thods will not be the same, but will be
during the war"
Attention is called to the fact that
the Federal Reserve system is now in
an exceptional position for influencing
the distribution and use Of banking
credit upon economic basis.
Necessity for the reduction Of loans
on war paper Is dealt with at length
and direct absorption of the govern
ment bonds now carried by the banks
through extensive popular saving is
suggested as a means Of creating new
current wealth.
With the return Of banks obliga-
tions to normal liquidity and as COM
mercial paper takes the place Of notes
secured by bonds and certificates Of in
debtedness, now making up large
proportion Of the Federal Reserve sys-
tenn assets, the bulletin says, prices
will gradually work toward a normal
and stable basis.
"Coincident with the reduction Of
domestic war loans," the bulletin says
with reference to foreign aid: There
may probably be expected to develop
a direct demand upon our banking re-
sources for accommodation designed to
facilitate the movement of goods to
other countries. From this
time forward the bulk Of our foreign
financing will necessarily return to a
peace basis and the service of our
banks will lie in supplying the means
of financing the movement of con-
sumable good to the foreign countries
by which they are needed"
