ARTILLERY BRANCH l. MAY BE MOTORIZED
Army Studies Move Tending to

Washington Nov. 4G. (UP)- Mechanical warfare of the future is foreseen by Maj. Gen. Fred T. Austin. Chief of Field Artillery, as 9 contest between tanks and fiei- artillcrymen. In his annual report published today, Austin empha- sized experiments in methods of fire against fast moving tanks and armored ears.
 In his opinion the Field Artillery always must he the most danger ous foe Of the modern mechanical force. Motors arc gradually sup planting horses in Field Artillery, Austin reported. although he is not convinced loo per cent substi- tution is advisable under condi- tions likely 10 develop in the near future.
 All medium and heavy artillery in the Army IS now tractor drawn ! but horses still pack or pull 66 per cent of all artillery, equlmcnt. But ! horses are so great Austin believes they should be given considerable weight in determining future policy regarding mochanization. He estimates there are about %,-

 Extent of Molorizatihn
 Probably no subject has had more or such varied study as has this question of extension of mo torization," he said. "The recom- hended solutions vary from a con- plete replacement Of animals in certain component units of rcgi- ments and even battaIious. Were there not units or division artillery already motorized ] should cer- tainly recommend that some be motorized. However. such as we have already, tax available maiute- nance funds far beyond their limit. Throughout the army, motor equip ment is old and maintenance figures are climbing.
 Replacement Of existing obsolete automotlNe equipment IS of greater 1 importance than an increase in mo torized units.

HUGEST GOLD MINE

Vast Treasures Stored in In-
 pTeSnable Bank Cellar
Bv MINOTT SAUNDERS

Paris, Nov. 26-Underneath q Va cant lot. streWn with rubbish, off the rue CroiX des Pctits Champs here. lies the worlds greatest golI mine. It is fool-prOof. burglar proof. bomb-proof. with water flow ing above and beneath it. A formid . ablc fortress, it is the new strong box of the Bank of France.
 Construction Of this vault required three years, with night and day shifts of 1.200 men. Access to it IS gained through the Bank of France. only a few blocks from the Avenue de lOpera. At the third sub-b base ment there is a wall of reinforced concrete 25 feet thick. A secret combination opens a steel door | weighing eight tons, revealing a pas feet high. This is blocked by a steel buffer of the same thickness as the wall. and to move this buffer in wards on tracks requires the force Of an electric locomotive. only trusted guards familiar with the mechanism can operate this machinery.
 Arranged in Compartments Inside the fortress there are Nari- ous sections, separated by huge stctl doOrs On either side Of long corri ] dors are compartments in which tho gold treasure is stored. Each com-
 pertinent is capable of holding D. 0O0.000 francs in 100-franc gold pieces, but at present most of the compartments contain an equal value in gold ingots. chiefly American ana English.
 The concrete walled cave is a labyrinth covering two and a hali acres and is 150 feet deep. Sixty

FIRE DAMAGE $500
 IN BEAUTY PARLOR
ONDer FOr6etS to Turn OG Gas
 While Out to Lunch

Mrs. Hazel M. Darling, proprietor tf the Marcel Shoppe on the fifth floor of the Leonard building, 800 laln street, neglected to turn off the gas on an instrument heater when she went to lunch early this afternoon, with the result that win dow drapes were blown against the flame and set fire to the ceiling. Chlcf w. J. Noble of the fire de- partmcnt estimated the damage at 5000, including that which was done 10 the equipment and furnishings
 Mrs. Darling was standing outside lie building when the alarm which Vas tolephoned 10 fire headquarters at 1:5S o'clock. brought fire com panleS, and she heard someone say the blaze was in the beauty parlor. r'Oh, 1 hope it's not my place." she exclaimed. Rushing 10 the scene, she found her fears were justified and, the sight of the water soaked and charrcG room caused her 10 give way to tears. She was so af- 1eCtcd that Chief Noble sent for her hrother-in-law, Fireman Thomas ross, whose company at the central Station was not obliged 10 respond.
 Tie instrument heater is a few lnchcs from the window. which was open from the bottom. although Mrs
 Darling felt certain she had closed inc window before going out. She did not recall shutting off the gas however, and there seemed to be nc doubt but that was the source of the fire. The equipment in the shoppe IS covered by insurance, Mrs Darling said.

Of concrete 19 feet thick Halfway down workmen found an undei- ground stream that flows from the Hills of Montmartre and empties into the Seine behind the Louvre. Tn" waters were damned back so as 10 allow the digging. to continue through solid rock. Heavy concrete columns were planted to support the fortress and now the waters run above and below the case.
 Treasure Is Safe
 The electrical plant. brilliantly lighting the corridors and rooms, is aafeguarded against any emergency There also is great kitchen capable Of feeding 2.00O workers and sol tiers. and also sleeping quarters in case Of d siege. Every pTecaution has been taken to safeguard the gold treasure against attack of any kind. In the first place, the pools of water incl ease the safety of the i huge vault, because if mobs get con- 1 t1ol Of the streets they would have great difficulty in digging down. In an extreme emergency the chambers of the vault could be flooded and in that way save the treasure.
 Officials of the Bank of France will not discuss the reasons for such an elaborate structure for depositin5 it's gold. but 1t is certain that the vault is proof against heavy gun fire and any bombs that might be dropped in an aerial raid. Workers down below could hold their fort for weeks, even months and remain per fcctly healthy because of a secret Nentilating system. Even if rioters could find the gateways 10 the cavern, they would have little chance ] ln blasting even the outer wall and no possible chance Of solving the combinations Of the doors.
 The French gold reserve value now amounts to nearly two billion dollars, which is an increase of up- proNimatcly 25 per cent since the be- ginning of the year. American and English ingots may be seen in pile- In the compartments along the Corri- dors. It is a gold mine that even the most fantaStiC-minded adventur- CTS scarcely could imagine. It ,s common knowledge that the Bank ol ! France is stronger now than at any time since the outbreak of war and it's gold fortress bears material eNi- Genco of it's strength.
 Most of the gold in the French re serve that has been drawn from England has been transported tC
 Paris by air. This is regarded !, the safest route by insurance com panics because the tri-motor planes rarely fail and the air passage offers little possibility of robbery.
