When the World War broke out
the United States was exactly in

most entirely upon single foreign
country for a chemical-nitrate of
soda-from which to produce nitric

be brought from Chile over sea

Panama Canal or 5000 miles by

~ HOULD man, caught In

the shower is over, break up the

In other words, should the United

World War a much needed lesson in
military preparedness, slump back
again into Its old defenseless state?
To say that Uncle Sam was
caught recently practically without
umbrellas in heavy shower and
that be succeeded In buying on
short notice and at great cost a
pretty good assortment Of these pro-
tectors is old stuff.
Now there Is a pretty general
feeling that these umbrellas should
be preserved and kept ready for
use. Certainly that Is the purpose
Of the War Department. But that
purpose seems to be not entirely
clear in the minds Of some of our
citizens. Proposals have been made
