BARUCH BOOSTS

Urges Mobilization of Wealth
AS Well as Man.Power,
Should War Come.

Peace-time mobilization OF the
nations resources, so that, IL war
came, the fighting forces could go
to 1t. like a private individual goes
to a big store to get whatever he
needs when and as he needs it," was
recommended Saturday by Bernard
NJ. Baruch in a speech to the War
College here.
Baruch also urged the imperative
need of developing a nitrate sup
ply. through the Muscle Shoals
project or some similar means.
MY idea" said Baruch. lis that
the country be SO self-contained
that II will be possible for II to be
surrounded for years by enemies
and yet be able to conduct war
with great efficiency, maintaining
all the while the morale of its peo-
pie.
IF war were to break upon us
today, there is one thing that
would recommend that has not been
done before. and that is to mobilize
every dollar as we'll as every man.
A free movement of labor or dol
lars should not be permitted except
under some centralized direction
that would prevent lost action and
profiteering.
To-day. were 1t not for the fact
that the army has on hand large
tonnage of nitrate. We would be un-
able to maintain ourselves for any
length of time against such a COM
bination as England and Japan. for
instance. and we will be able to
maintain ourselves only II we pro-
ceed to find some method of extract
ing nitrate from the air. like the
development Of Muscle Shoals"

NEW YORK. April s.-After be-

a venerable brick from the Great
Wall of China passed the custom
officisls and has just been received
by the museum Of the school Of
engineering of New York Univer-

The brick was obtained by Dir.

Gently from China after spending a
year as exchange professor at
Using Hua College. in Pekin.
DR.. McLouth packed the brick in
a special container and shipped Il
to New York. via Tientsln and. the
Panama Canal.
The United States custom on
cials, although familiar with the
queer collections made by antique
hunters. were more than usually
suspicious of the brick. They
drilled into IL, sawed an end OF
1t. and tested 1t in various ways
for contraband goods, but. nndIng

The brick is otherwise in an ex-
celient condition. and in general
